Abstract:
The present invention relates to marine medaka genes responding to the exposure of endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and a method for diagnosing an aquatic eco-system contamination using the marine medaka genes. Specifically, the method for diagnosing an aquatic eco-system contamination, according to the present invention, makes use of marine medaka genes of which the expression amount changes according to 17β-estradiol, or marine medaka genes of which the expression amount changes according to bisphenol A. Since it was verified that genes of marine medaka exposed to 17β-estradiol are changed or genes of marine medaka exposed to bisphenol A are changed, the present invention can be used in a useful manner for a microarray chip in which marine medaka genes responding to 17β-estradiol or marine medaka genes responding to bisphenol A are integrated, for a diagnosis using same, and for a method for diagnosing health or detecting stress of a marine eco-system by applying a kit having the microarray chip.
