The study reveals that B[a]P has an impact on the locomotor behavior of zebrafish, with different effects at different concentrations. Through RNA sequencing analysis, it was found that the affected genes are mainly involved in cardiomyocyte signaling pathways and locomotory behavior.
Waterborne Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) pollution is a global threat to aquatic organisms. The exposure to water -borne B[a]P can disrupt the normal locomotor behavior of zebrafish (Danio rerio), however, how it affect the locomotor behavior of adult zebrafish remains unclear. Herein, B[a]P at two concentrations (0.8 mu g/L and 2.0 mu g/L) were selected to investigate the molecular mechanisms of the affected locomotor behavior of zebrafish by B [a]P based on transcriptome profiling. Adverse effects of B[a]P exposure affecting locomotor behavior in zebrafish were studied by RNA sequencing, and the locomotion phenotype was acquired. The gene enrichment results showed that the differentially highly expressed genes (atp2a1, cdh2, aurlta, fxyd1, clstn1, apoc1, mt-co1, tnnt3b, and fads2) of zebrafish are mainly enriched in adrenergic signaling in cardiomyocytes (dre04261) and locomotory behavior (GO:0007626). The movement trajectory plots showed an increase in the locomotor dis-tance and velocity of zebrafish in the 0.8 mu g/L group and the opposite in the 2.0 mu g/L group. The results showed that B[a]P affects the variety of genes in zebrafish, including motor nerves, muscles, and energy supply, and ultimately leads to altered locomotor behavior.
