Abstrakt: Chronic exposure to pollution may lead populations to display evolutionary adaptations associated with cellular and physiological mechanisms of defense against xenobiotics. This could result in differences in the way individuals of the same species, but inhabiting different areas, cope with chemical exposure. In the present study, we explore two Gulf killifish (Fundulus grandis) populations with different exposure histories for potential differences in the biotransformation of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), and conduct a comparative evaluation of in vitro and in vivo approaches to describe the applicability of new approach methodologies (NAMs) for biotransformation assessments. Pollution-adapted and non-adapted F. grandis were subjected to intraperitoneal (IP) injections of BaP in time-course exposures, prior to measurements of CYP biotransformation activity, BaP liver concentrations, and the identification and quantification of phase I metabolites. Additionally, substrate depletion bioassays using liver S9 fractions were employed for measurements of intrinsic hepatic clearance and to evaluate the production of metabolites in vitro. Pollution-adapted F. grandis presented significantly lower CYP1A activity and intrinsic clearance rates that were 3 to 4 times lower than non-adapted fish. The metabolite profiling of BaP showed the presence of 1‑hydroxy-benzo[a]pyrene in both the in vitro and in vivo approaches but with no significant population differences. Contrarily, 9‑hydroxy-benzo[a]pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene-4,5-dihydrodiol, only identified through the in vivo approach, presented higher concentrations in the bile of pollution-adapted fish relative to non-adapted individuals. These observations further the understanding of the evolutionary adaptation of F. grandis inhabiting heavily polluted environments in the Houston Ship Channel, TX, USA, and highlight the need to consider the evolutionary history of populations of interest during the implementation of NAMs.
