Daphnia magna DNA microarray for the evaluation of toxicity of environmental chemicals

ABSTRACT: Toxic chemical contaminants have variety of detrimental effects on various species and the impact of pollutants on ecosystems has become an urgent issue. However, very limited species have been examined to date and those studies are mainly limited to vertebrates. In this study, we aimed to establish an ecotoxicogenomic bases for Daphnia magna. Based on a daphnia EST database, we made oligonucleotide-based DNA microarray that has high reproducibility. The DNA microarray was applied to evaluate gene expression profiles of daphnid exposed to chemicals. Characteristic gene expression patterns depending on chemicals indicate that the Daphnia microarray can be used for mechanistic understanding of chemical toxicity. Although acute toxicity test or reproductive toxicity test can provide hazardous concentrations of chemicals, they give no information about mode of action. Our study can be a breakthrough for the evaluation of chemical toxicity on environmental organisms. Keywords: Chemical response

The Molecular Toxicity Identification Evaluation (mTIE) Approach Predicts Chemical Exposure in Daphnia magna

Project description:Daphnia magna is a bio-indicator organism accepted by several international water quality regulatory agencies. Current approaches for assessment of water quality rely on acute and chronic toxicity that provide no insight into the cause of toxicity. Recently, molecular approaches, such as genome wide gene expression responses, are enabling an alternative mechanism based approach to toxicity assessment. While these genomic methods are providing important mechanistic insight into toxicity, statistically robust prediction systems that allow the identification of chemical contaminants from the molecular response to exposure are needed. Here we apply advanced machine learning approaches to develop predictive models of contaminant exposure using a D. magna gene expression dataset for 36 chemical exposures. We demonstrate here that we can discriminate between chemicals belonging to different chemical classes including endocrine disruptors, metals and industrial chemicals based on gene expression. We also show that predictive models based on indices of whole pathway transcriptional activity can achieve comparable results while facilitating biological interpretability. D. magna were exposed to 36 Chemicals and 5 control series in quadruplicate.

Gene expression profiling in Daphnia magna, Part III: Uncovering Biomarkers for Metal and ORC exposures

Project description:To determine toxicant specific effects of Ordnance Related Compound (ORC) exposure we performed microarray hybridizations with RNA isolated from Daphnia magna following different ORC exposures at the 1/10 LC50. The gene expression profiles revealed toxicant specific gene expression profiles allowed for the identification of specific biomarkers of exposure. Keywords: ecotoxicogenomic exposure study

Gene transcription, metabolite and lipid profiling in eco-indicator daphnia magna indicate diverse mechanisms of toxicity by legacy and emerging flame-retardants.

Project description:The use of chemical flame-retardants (FR) in consumer products has steadily increased over the last 30 years. Toxicity data exist for legacy FRs such as pentabromodiphenyl ether (pentaBDE), but less is known about effects of new formulations. To address this issue, the toxicity of seven FR chemicals and formulations was assessed on the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna. Acute 48-h nominal LC50 values for penta- and octabromodiphenyl ether (pentaBDE, octaBDE), Firemaster 550 (FM550), Firemaster BZ-54 (BZ54), bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate (BEH-TEBP), triphenyl phosphate (TPhP), and nonbrominated BEH-TEBP analog bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (BEHP) ranged from 0.058 mg/L (pentaBDE) to 3.96 mg/L (octaBDE). mRNA expression, (1)H NMR-based metabolomic and lipidomic profiling at 1/10 LC50 revealed distinct patterns of molecular response for each exposure, suggesting pentaPBDE affects transcription and translation, octaBDE and BEH-TEBP affect glycosphingolipid biosynthesis and BZ54 affects Wnt and Hedgehog signal pathways as well as glycosaminoglycan degradation. Brominated components of FM550 (i.e., BZ54) were significantly higher in Daphnia after 48 h following 1/10 LC50 exposure. FM550 elicited significant mRNA changes at five concentrations across a range from 1/10^6 LC50 to 1/2 LC50. Analyses suggest FM550 impairs nutrient utilization or uptake in Daphnia. Seven flame retardant formulations and equal volume solvent (DMSO) controls for each; four exposed and three or four biological replicates per condition.

300 ppm Citrinin treatment for 2 h (GPL1945)

Project description:The availability of yeast DNA microarrays provides the possibility of monitoring gene expression levels as a function to toxin exposure, and consequently as a means of determining mechanisms of toxicity. This system possesses the benefit of the essential volume of yeast cultures, the high reproducibility of expression profiles, and the massive functional information. Because small amount of biological sample cultures are required for this analysis, toxicity test for rare chemical such as mycotoxins which is a natural compound and difficult to be artificially synthesized. Citrinin [518-75-2], 4,6-dihydro-8-hydroxy-3,4,5-trimethyl-6-oxo-3H-2-benzopyran-7-crboxylic acid, is the one of the popular mycotoxicin produced by Penicillium and Aspergillus family possibly spread all over the world. This natural chemicals is one of the well characterized mycotoxin but the information especially mechanism of toxic action is limited. We used two types of microarrays, one have ORF (Open reading Frame) fragment on the surface of the glass as probes and the other have probes as oligonucleotide probes on the microarray with 3 dimensions. We compared data properties and studied the toxicity of citrinin to yeast cells. Keywords: stress response Series containes 3 hybridization results from independent biological samples, and each experiment have high and low power scanned data respectively.

The validation case study of read-across based on IATA for hepatotoxicity of Naphthalene and its structurally similar analogs

Project description:Comparing biological similarity with in vitro test is expected to improve the reliability of read-across for systemic toxicity without animal test. However, because of few case studies, it was hindered to use of this concept for regulatory context. Thus, we compared biological similarity with in vitro test for structurally similar chemicals to demonstrate its validity for grouping chemicals and extract key considerations in read-across. In this study, we selected the hepatotoxicity of Naphthalene and its structurally similar analogs which have 90-day repeated dose toxicity data including 2,7-Naphthalenediol, 1,5-Naphthalenediol, and 1-Naphthol. To elucidate the potential mechanisms and compared them, we conducted in vitro microarray analysis with rat primary hepatocytes

Agricultural fungicides to gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae upon exposure to toxic doses

Project description:Correlations between the chemical structures of agricultural fungicides and mRNA expression levels following exposure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to toxic doses of thiuram, zineb, maneb, TPN, and PCP were examined. Structurally, thiuram, zineb, and maneb are dithiocarbamate fungicides, whereas TPN and PCP are not. To characterize chemical toxicity, genes expression was classified according to the functional groups used by the MIPS database. However, no correlations between the classification scheme and chemical structures were found. Hierarchical clustering of gene expression profiles was performed to characterize the effects of the five chemicals. According to this analysis the similarity of gene expression profiles depended on the similarity of chemical structures. These results suggest that DNA microarray technology has potential for predicting the major chemicals which will cause environmental toxicity and will provide information on new biomonitoring methods.
