Özet

The toxicity of sodiumcarboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), which has GRAS status and has been determined as "ADI non specified", was re-evaluated with a new modelling and molecular-based data. For this purpose, CMC, a food additive, was injected to the yolk sac (food) of the zebrafish embryo by the microinjection method at the 4th hour of fertilization at different concentrations. As a result, it was found that CMC showed no toxic effects within the framework of the parameters studied. But, we determined increasing lipid accumulation in zebrafish embryos exposed to CMC in a dose-dependent manner. To elucidate the mechanism underlying this lipid accumulation, the expression levels of genes related to obesity-linked lipid metabolism were examined. Our findings show that while CMC does not cause a toxic effect in zebrafish embryos, it can lead important effects on lipid metabolism by causing changes in the expression of some genes associated with obesity.
