摘要： In this study, the influence of bisphenol F (BPF) toward central nervous system (CNS) was assessed using zebrafish embryos. We found that BPF could induce significant neurotoxicity toward zebrafish embryos, including inhibited locomotion, reduced moving distance, and CNS cell apoptosis at an effective concentration of 0.0005 mg/L. Immunofluorescence assay showed that both microglia and astrocyte in zebrafish brain were significantly activated by BPF, indicating the existence of neuroinflammatory response. Peripheral motor neuron development was significantly inhibited by BPF at 72 hpf. RNA-seq data indicated that neuronal developmental processes and cell apoptosis pathways were significantly affected by BPF exposure, which was consistent with the phenotypic results. Chip-seq assay implied that the transcriptional changes were not mediated by ER alpha. Additionally, no significant change was found in neurotransmitter levels (5-hydroxytryptamine, dopamine, and acetylcholine) or acetylcholinesterase (Ache) enzyme activity after BPF exposure, indicating that BPF may not affect neurotransmission. In conclusion, BPF could lead to abnormal neural outcomes during zebrafish early life stage through inducing neuroinflammation and CNS cell apoptosis even at environmentally relevant concentration.
