ABSTRACT
Nanoplastics (NPs, < 1000 nm) interact with chemicals and biomolecules to produce chemical-/eco-corona, altering the environmental destiny, bioavailability, and toxicity of plastic particles and co-occurring chemicals. This study employs exogenous (humic acid, HA) and endogenous (bovine serum albumin, BSA) natural organic matter (NOM) to investigate the eco-corona formation on NPs and explore the interfacial effects of eco-corona and 62 chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonate (Cl-PFESA, commonly named as F-53B) on zebrafish (Danio rerio) after 7 days of exposure. Our results indicated significant changes in growth and developmental indices of zebrafish embryos among all eco-corona groups (p < 0.05). Additionally, NFB (BSA-corona, 1 mg/L NPs + 200 µg/L F-53B + 10 mg/L BSA), NFH (HA-corona, 1 mg/L NPs + 200 µg/L F-53B + 10 mg/L HA) and NFHB (BSA-HA-corona, 1 mg/L NPs + 200 µg/L F-53B + 10 mg/L BSA + 10 mg/L HA) showed elevated bioaccumulation of NPs, ROS generation and induction of apoptosis. Transcriptomic analysis showed the number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the following order BSA-HA-corona (NFHB (2953) > HA-corona (NFH (2797) > NH (2721) > F-53B (2292) > NF (2033) > BSA-corona (NFB (687) > NB (450)), and no DEGs were detected in the single NP compared to the control. Further, the PI3K-AKT, immune system, endocrine system, digestive system, infectious diseases, and neurovegetative disease pathways showed sensitive responses in the NFH/NFHB groups compared to those in the NFB group. Therefore, the interactive effects of NPs and F-53B on zebrafish embryos were lower in the presence of BSA-corona than those in HA- or HA-BSA-coronas, indicating a relationship between the formation of diverse eco-coronas on NPs by multiple NOM and an associated increase in the interfacial toxicological effects of plastic particles and F-35B in freshwater organisms.
