摘要

We used oligonucleotide microarrays to examine the gene expression patterns in liver, gonad and gill tissues from adult female fathead minnows (FHM, Pimephales promelas) exposed to two different sizes (< 8 nm and 50-80 nm outer diameter) and multiple doses of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) under aerated static renewal conditions. We observed significant (p≤0.05 and fold change ≥2) differential gene expression in each of the three tissues due both to size and exposure dose. All three tissues express more genes (regardless of dose) after exposure to the larger size MWCNTs. The liver shows a higher percentage of genes up-regulated in response to exposure to MWCNTs regardless of size. The ovary shows more genes down-regulated after exposure to both sizes. Forty-eight genes were differentially expressed in gills for both sizes of MWCNT although significant histopathological results (fused and shortened gill lamellae) were only observed for the smaller MWCNTs. We conclude that, under some conditions, size does matter in regard to MWCNTs.
