Dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is one of the most widely used plasticizers with a high concentration in the water. Although the toxicity of DBP on aquatic organisms has become a significant concern in recent years, the effects of DBP on zebrafish (Danio rerio) brain is poorly understood. This study investigated the toxic effects of DBP exposure for 7, 14, 21 and 28 days on zebrafish brain. The results showed that DBP significantly stimulated SOD and CAT activities, increasing MDA and 8-OHdG contents. On the 28th day, the AChE inhibition rates in 0.08, 0.4, 2 mg·L-1 treatment were 13.4%, 11.9%, 14.7%. The trend of Cu/Zn-sod gene variation was consistent with SOD activity, showing "inhibition-activation-inhibition". The expression of apoptotic genes (caspase-3, p53) showed "inhibition-activation-inhibition". The integrated biomarker response (IBR) results showed that the IBR values were 4.37, 7.18 and 9.63 in 0.08, 0.4 and 2 mg·L-1 group on the 28th day, presenting a "dose-response" relationship. These findings confirmed that low concentration of DBP induced oxidative damage and genotoxicity in zebrafish brain, which provided an effective toxicological basis for phthalate pollution. Based on above studies, it is of great significance for assessing the harmful effects of DBP with low concentration on aquatic organisms.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010968 Plasticizers Materials incorporated mechanically in plastics (usually PVC) to increase flexibility, workability or distensibility; due to the non-chemical inclusion, plasticizers leach out from the plastic and are found in body fluids and the general environment. Plasticizer
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D003993 Dibutyl Phthalate A plasticizer used in most plastics and found in water, air, soil, plants and animals. It may have some adverse effects with long-term exposure. Butyl Phthalate,Di-n-Butyl Phthalate,Di n Butyl Phthalate,Phthalate, Butyl,Phthalate, Di-n-Butyl,Phthalate, Dibutyl
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
