摘要

Screening and testing of potential endocrine‐disrupting chemicals for ecological effects are examples of risk assessment/regulatory activities that can employ adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) to establish linkages between readily measuredalterations in endocrine function and whole organism– and population‐level responses. Of particular concern are processescontrolled by the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal/thyroidal (HPG/T) axes. However, the availability of AOPs suitable to meetthis need is currently limited in terms of species and life‐stage representation relative to the diversity of endpoints influencedby HPG/T function. In our report we describe two novel AOPs that comprise a simple AOP network focused on the effects ofchemicals on sex differentiation during early development in fish. The first AOP (346) documents events starting withinhibition of cytochrome P450 aromatase (CYP19), resulting in decreased availability of 17β‐estradiol during gonad differentiation,which increases the occurrence of testis formation, resulting in a male‐biased sex ratio and consequent populationleveldeclines. The second AOP (376) is initiated by activation of the androgen receptor (AR), also during sexual differentiation,again resulting in a male‐biased sex ratio and population‐level effects. Both AOPs are strongly supported byexisting physiological and toxicological evidence, including numerous fish studies with model CYP19 inhibitors and ARagonists. Accordingly, AOPs 346 and 376 provide a basis for more focused screening and testing of chemicals with thepotential to affect HPG function in fish during early development.
