This study demonstrated the chronic exposure toxicity of the insecticide indoxacarb on adult zebrafish liver using metabolomics and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) methods. The results showed that indoxacarb exposure affected the movement behaviors of zebrafish and increased the activities of certain enzymes in the liver. Pathological analysis revealed cavitation and pathological reactions in the liver. Metabolomics and MSI results indicated that indoxacarb significantly affected metabolic pathways in the zebrafish liver. These findings highlight the disturbance of metabolic pathways as the mechanism behind the toxicity of indoxacarb.
Indoxacarb is a widely used insecticide in the prevention and control of agricultural pests, whereas its negative effects on non-target organisms remain largely unclear. Herein, we demonstrated the integrated metabolomics and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) methods to investigate the chronic exposure toxicity of indoxacarb at environmentally relevant concentrations in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) liver. Results showed that movement behaviors of zebrafish can be affected and catalase (CAT), glutamic oxalacetic transaminase (GOT), and glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) activities were significantly increased after indoxacarb exposure for 28 days. Pathological analysis of zebrafish livers also showed that cavitation and pathological reactions occur. Metab-olomics results indicated that metabolic pathways of zebrafish liver could be significantly affected by indoxacarb, such as tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and various amino acid metabolisms. MSI results revealed the spatial differentiation of crucial metabolites involved in these metabolic pathways within zebrafish liver. Taken together, these integrated MSI and metabolomics results revealed that the toxicity of indoxacarb arises from metabolic pathways disturbance, which resulted in the decrease of liver detoxification ability. These findings will promote the current understanding of pesticide risks and metabolic disorders in zebrafish liver, which provide new insights into the environmental risk assessment of insecticides on aquatic organisms.
