This study investigated the effects of bisphenol compounds (BPA, BPS, BPF, and BPAF) on the early growth and development of aquatic organisms using marine medaka larvae. The results showed that these compounds have toxic effects on the cardiovascular system of the larvae, causing neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that the main toxic effects of bisphenols on marine medaka larvae targeted the liver and heart, mainly affecting lipid metabolism and cardiac muscle contraction. This study provides a theoretical foundation for evaluating the toxicological effects of bisphenols on the early development of aquatic organisms.
Bisphenols are environmental endocrine disruptors that have detrimental effects on aquatic organisms. Using marine medaka larvae, this study explored the effects of bisphenol compounds [bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol S (BPS), bisphenol F (BPF), and bisphenol AF (BPAF)] on the early growth and development of aquatic organisms. Marine medaka larvae were exposed to bisphenol compounds at concentrations of 0.05, 0.5, and 5 mu M for 72 h, and changes in heartbeat rate, behavior, hormone levels, and gene expression were determined. Bisphenols were shown to have a toxic effect on the cardiovascular system of larvae and can cause neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption, such as changes to thyroid-related hormones. Functional enrichment showed that bisphenols mainly affect lipid metabolism and cardiac muscle contraction of larvae, which implied that the main toxic effects of bisphenols on marine medaka larvae targeted the liver and heart. This study provides a theoretical foundation for evaluating the toxicological effects of bisphenols on the early development of aquatic organisms.
