Outline of Final Research Achievements

Previous studies have suggested that neonicotinoid pesticide transformation products in water environments (NN-PTPWs) show high binding potency to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in insects and other organisms compared to the parent compound. Furthermore, several NN-PTPWs may affect the cranial nerve system via intracellular receptors in aquatic organisms such as fish. In this study, we investigated the effects of NN-PTPWs on the embryonic cranial nerve system in medaka (Oryzias latipes). The fluorescent immunostaining analysis revealed that NN-PTPW had a severe effect on the embryonic nerve system than the parent compound, and that the optic nerve is one of the most affected cranial nerves. These results suggest that NN-PTPW has an adverse effect on the cranial nerve system of medaka embryos.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ネオニコチノイド系農薬環境変化体(NN-PTPWs)が水生生物に及ぼす影響は不明な点が多い。本研究では、NN-PTPWsを対象として、メダカ脳神経系への影響について、異なる成長段階に対する毒性影響評価、免疫染色による脳神経系観察、発現変動遺伝子解析と毒性発現機序の予測を通して、個体―組織―細胞レベルにおいて包括的に解析した。そして、NN-PTPWsによる脳神経系への作用濃度・毒性影響とその発現機序の一部を明らかにでき、生態リスク評価のための科学的根拠が得られた。
