摘要: Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is an increasingly important environmental pollutant, which has been detected almost everywhere in the environment. Despite the widespread presence of PFOS, much less notice is taken of its toxicology effects on marine bivalves. Thus, the transcriptome response to PFOS treatment (nominal concentration of 20 mg/L) in hepatopancreas of a sentinel organism, Ruditapes philippinarum was examined. Compared with the control group, 32,149 unigenes were up-regulated and 26,958 unigenes down-regulated. Notably, significant gene expression changes were found in carbohydrate metabolism, energy metabolism, amino acid metabolism, lipid metabolism and protein biosynthesis, indicating the metabolic disruptions caused by PFOS in R. philippinarum. Additionally, numerous other differentially expressed genes were involved in immune system, antioxidant defense system and detoxification metabolism. In summary, transcriptome profiling of R. philippinarum after exposure to PFOS provided molecular support for our current understanding of the detrimental toxicity of PFOS on marine bivalves.
