| Abstract | Alkylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (alkyl-PAHs) are the predominant form of PAHs in crude oils, of which, 3–5 ring alkyl-PAH may cause dioxin-like toxicity to early life stages of fish. Retene (7-isopropyl-1-methylphenanthrene), a typical alkyl-phenanthrene compound, can be more toxic than phenanthrene, and the mechanism of retene toxicity is likely related to its rapid biotransformation by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes to metabolites with a wide array of structures and potential toxicities. Here, we investigated how α-naphthoflavone (ANF), a cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A) inhibitor, affected the embryotoxicity of retene and the role that CYP1A inhibition may play in the interactions. Marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma) embryos were exposed, separately or together, to 200 μg/L retene with 0, 5, 10, 100, and 200 μg/L ANF for 14 days. The results showed that ANF significantly inhibited the induction of CYP1A activity by retene; however, ANF interacted with retene to induce significant developmental toxicity and genotoxicity at 10, 100, and 200 μg/L (p < 0.01). Tissue concentrations of retene and its metabolites and lipid hydroperoxide (LPO) activity also increased, whereas the inhibition of the glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity and the alteration in metabolic profiles of retene were observed. The interactions of retene with ANF indicate that CYP1A inhibition was possibly act through different mechanisms to produce similar developmental effects and genotoxicity. Retene metabolites and altered metabolic profile were likely responsible for retene embryotoxicity to marine medaka. Therefore, elevated toxicity of alkyl-phenanthrene under CYP1A inhibitor suggested that the ecotoxicity of PAHs in coastal water may have underestimated the threat of PAHs to fish or ecosystem. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
