Excess selenium entering the aquatic environment from anthropogenic activities has been associated with developmental abnormalities in fish including skeletal deformities of the head and spine. However, mechanisms of this developmental toxicity have not been well-characterized. In this study, Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) embryos were exposed to seleno-l-methionine (Se-Met) in a range of concentrations. Gene expression was evaluated for sex-determining region Y (SRY)-related box (Sox9aandSox9b), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), and melatonin receptor (Mtr). Alterations in the length of Meckel’s cartilage, tail curvature, and decreased calcification were observed in skeletal stains at 10- and 22-days post-fertilization (dpf). Embryonic exposure ofOsterix-mCherry transgenic medaka resulted in fewer teeth.Sox9aandSox9bwere up-regulated, whileRunx2andMtrwere down-regulated by Se-Met prior to hatch. Whole mountin situhybridization (WISH) localized gene expression to areas observed to be affectedin vivo. In addition, Se-Met exposures of aMtrmorpholino (Mtr-MO) as well as Luzindole exposed embryos developed similar skeletal malformations, supporting involvement ofMtr. These findings demonstrate that Se-Met modulates expression of key genes involved in chondrogenic differentiation and bone formation during development.
