Recovery trend to co-exposure of iron oxide nanoparticles (γ-Fe 2O 3) and glyphosate in liver tissue of the fish Poecilia reticulata. CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 282:130993. [PMID: 34118627 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2021.130993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Citrate-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have potential use in environmental remediation, with possibilities in decontaminating aquatic environments exposed to toxic substances. This study analyzed IONPs associated to Roundup Original, a glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH), and pure glyphosate (GLY), through ultrastructural and histopathological biomarkers in liver tissue, from females of Poecilia reticulata exposed to: iron ions (0.3 mg/L) (IFe) and IONPs (0.3 mgFe/L) associated with GLY (0.65 mg/L) and GBH (0.65 mgGLY/L (IONP + GBH1) and 1.30 mgGLY/L (IONP + GBH2)) for a period of 7, 14 and 21 days, followed by an equal post-exposure period only in reconstituted water. For the assays, the synthetized IONPs had crystalline and rounded shape with an average diameter of 2,90 nm, hydrodynamic diameter 66,6 mV, zeta potential -55,4 and diffraction profile of maghemite (γ-Fe2O3). The data obtained by biomarkers indicated a high inflammatory response in all treatments. These same parameters, considered during the post-exposure period indicated recovery in reaction patterns of circulatory disturbances and regressive changes, resulting in average reductions of 37,53 points in IFe, 21 points in IONP + GBH1, 15 points in IONP + GBH2 and 11 points in IONP + GLY in total histopathological index of liver after 21 days post-exposure. However, although the cellular and tissue responses were significant, there was no change in the condition factor and hepatosomatic index, denoting resilience of the experimental model.

Imidacloprid induces locomotion impairment of the freshwater crayfish, Procambarus clarkii via neurotoxicity and oxidative stress in digestive system. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2021; 238:105913. [PMID: 34304056 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2021.105913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2021] [Revised: 07/08/2021] [Accepted: 07/10/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Imidacloprid (IMI) is used in integrated farming like the rice-crayfish co-culture system to prevent water weevil. However, the toxic effect of IMI on the freshwater crayfish Procambarus clarkii is unknown. In the current study, the effects of IMI on the locomotion, antioxidative status, digestion and intestinal microbiota of P. clarkii were investigated. The results showed that IMI caused locomotion impairment with reduced crawl velocity, and attenuated their dark preference, aggressiveness and reversal ability. Inhibited AChE in muscle and hepatopancreas indicates the neurotoxicity of IMI which may directly lead their locomotion dysfunction. The increase of antioxidative enzymes activity and MDA level were found after 25 μg/L and 250 μg/L exposure. Significant up-regulation of several antioxidative and immune-related genes, including CZ-SOD, CAT, GPx, GST, AFL, proPO, HSP27 and HSP70 confirmed that oxidative stress was induced in all treatments when exposed to IMI. In addition, there was significant increase of LDH, indicating the different energy allocation during the exposure. Meanwhile, results from DNA damage analysis showed elevated OTM value and 8-OHdG level in hepatopancretic cells. On the other hand, decreases of alpha-amylase, lipase and increase of trypsin in hepatopancreas was observed at 25 and 250 μg/L. In addition, significant changes of composition of intestinal microbiota at both phylum and genus levels were observed according to the 16S rRNA sequencing results. Increase of pathogenic genera and decrease of beneficial bacterial communities revealed the disequilibrium of intestinal flora of crayfish. In summary, results in the present study suggest that IMI at environmentally realistic concentration could induce AChE inhibition and oxidative stress, conjointly leading the locomotion impairment in crayfish. IMI also affected the digestive functions by enzymes inhibition and gut microbiota dysbiosis.

Yang X, Song Y, Zhang C, Pang Y, Song X, Wu M, Cheng Y. Effects of the glyphosate-based herbicide roundup on the survival, immune response, digestive activities and gut microbiota of the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis. AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2019; 214:105243. [PMID: 31319294 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2019.105243] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2019] [Revised: 07/06/2019] [Accepted: 07/07/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Glyphosate is one of the most widely used pesticides in the world and can be transported easily by surface runoff, air, and rivers, potentially affecting aquaculture. In this study, the survival rate, intestinal and hepatopancreatic immune and digestive functions, and the intestinal microbial diversity of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) were evaluated after 7 days of exposure to glyphosate (48.945 mg/L from 1/2 96-h LC50 value). The results showed that glyphosate significantly reduced the survival rate of E. sinensis. After exposure to glyphosate, the totoal antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in the midgut and hindgut of E. sinensis was significantly decreased, and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the midgut was significantly increased (P < 0.05). After glyphosate exposure, the activities of digestive enzymes (including lipase and amylase) in the intestinal tract were significantly decreased and trypsin was significantly increased, while three enzymes in the hepatopancreas were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Using high-throughput sequencing analysis of the gut microbiota, the results showed that glyphosate significantly decreased the diversity of E. sinensis gut microbiota, while significantly increasing the taxonomic richness of Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria (P < 0.05). This study suggested that these bacteria may be involved in glyphosate effects on survival by regulation of immune and digestive function.
