Perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS) is found in hypoxia regions. Results of previous studies have shown that hypoxia was capable of altering the inherent toxicity of PFBS. However, regarding gill functions, hypoxic influences and time course progression of toxic effects of PFBS remain unclear. In this study, with the aim to reveal the interaction behavior between PFBS and hypoxia, adult marine medaka Oryzias melastigma were exposed for 7 days to 0 or 10 mu g PFBS/L under normoxic or hypoxic conditions. Subsequently, to explore the time-course transition in gill toxicity, medaka were exposed to PFBS for 21 days. The results showed that hypoxia dramatically increased the respiratory rate of medaka gill, which was further enhanced by exposure to PFBS; although exposure to PFBS under normoxic conditions for 7 days did not alter respiration, exposure to PFBS for 21 days significantly accelerated the respiration rate of female medaka. Concurrently, both hypoxia and PFBS were potent to interrupt the gene transcriptions and Na+, K+ATPase enzymatic activity that play pivotal roles in the osmoregulation in gills of marine medaka, consequently disrupting homeostasis of major ions in blood, such as Na+, Cl-, and Ca2+. In addition, composition and diversity of the microbiome residing on surfaces of the gill were profiled by using amplicon sequencing. Acute exposure to hypoxia for only 7 days caused a significant decrease in diversity of the bacterial community of gill whatever the presence of PFBS, while PFBS exposure for 21 days increased the diversity of gill microbial community. Principal component analysis revealed that, compared with PFBS, hypoxia was the predominant driver of gill microbiome dysbiosis. Depending on duration of exposure, a divergence was caused in the microbial community of gill. Overall, the current findings underline the interaction between hypoxia and PFBS on gill function and demonstrate the temporal variation in PFBS toxicity. |
