Abstract
With the development of industry, agriculture and intensification of human activities, a large amount of nano-TiO2 dioxide and pentachlorophenol have entered aquatic environment, causing potential impacts on the health of aquatic animals and ecosystems. We investigated the effects of predators, pentachlorophenol (PCP) and nano titanium dioxide (nano-TiO2) on the gut health (microbiota and digestive enzymes) of the thick-shelled mussel Mytilus coruscus. Nano-TiO2, as the photocatalyst for PCP, enhanced to toxic effects of PCP on the intestinal health of mussels, and they made the mussels more vulnerable to the stress from predators. Nano-TiO2 particles with smaller size exerted a larger negative effect on digestive enzymes, whereas the size effect on gut bacteria was insignificant. The presence of every two of the three factors significantly affected the population richness and diversity of gut microbiota. Our findings revealed that the presence of predators, PCP, and nano-TiO2 promoted the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and inhibited digestive enzyme activity. This research investigated the combined stress on marine mussels caused by nanoparticles and pesticides in the presence of predators and established a theoretical framework for explaining the adaptive mechanisms in gut microbes and the link between digestive enzymes and gut microbiota.

[PMID: 33372870 DOI: 10.2174/1389201021666201229111251] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2020] [Revised: 10/10/2020] [Accepted: 11/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As an important nano-material, nano-copper oxide particles (CuO-ENPs) harbor a vast range of characteristics, including an electronic correlation effect, thermal stability, catalytic activity, sterilization, and other properties. At present, the mechanism of ecotoxicological effects of CuO-ENPs is unclear and has been inconclusive. Therefore, we aimed to explore the ecotoxicological effects of nano-copper oxide particles (CuO-ENPs) on Portunus trituberculatus. OBJECTIVE The crabs were exposed to seawater containing different concentrations of CuO-ENPs to conduct the acute toxicity test and chronic accumulation test. METHODS Acute toxicity, metal accumulation, and SOD activity in different tissues were determined. RESULTS We found that the lethal concentration of 50% 96 h LC50 of CuO-ENPs to Portunus trituberculatus belonged to low toxicity. The accumulation of CuO-ENPs in different tissues from high to low was: gill > haemolymph > muscle > hepatopancreas > heart and stomach, and decreased gradually with time after reaching the maximum. DISCUSSION Subsequently, it was in a relatively steady state after a certain period and showed an obvious concentration effect. With the increment of exposure time and concentration of CuO-ENPs, the SOD activities in different tissues were quite different. In conclusion, the 96 h LC50 of CuOENPs to Portunus trituberculatus was 49 mg/L, and its toxicity belonged to low toxicity. CONCLUSION With the increment of exposure time and concentration of CuO-ENPs, the SOD activities in different tissues were quite different, which were increased remarkably in gill and hepatopancreas, but were suppressed at an early stage of exposure in muscle and haemolymph.

Abstract
Copper is a necessary nutrient but quickly becomes toxic at elevated levels. To properly handle environmental copper influxes and maintain metal homeostasis, organisms utilize various methods to chelate, excrete, and metabolize heavy metals. These mechanisms are believed to involve complex signaling pathways mediated by neuropeptides. This study incorporates custom N,N-dimethyl leucine isobaric tags to characterize the neuropeptidomic changes after different time points (1, 2, and 4 h) of copper exposure in a model organism, blue crab, Callinectes sapidus. Using a modified simplex optimization strategy, the number of identifiable and quantifiable neuropeptides was increased 3-fold to facilitate a deeper understanding of the signaling pathways involved in responding to heavy metal exposure. The time course exposure showed many interesting findings, including upregulation of inhibitory allatostatin peptides in the pericardial organs. Additionally, there was evidence of transport of a pigment dispersing hormone from the sinus glands to the brain. Overall, this study improves the multiplexing capabilities of neuropeptidomic studies to understand the temporal changes associated with copper toxicity.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 760:143886.

Abstract
To date, the occurrence, fate and toxicity of metal-based NPs in the environment is under investigated. Their unique physicochemical, biological and optical properties, responsible for their advantageous application, make them intrinsically different from their bulk counterpart, raising the issue of their potential toxic specificity or "nanosize effect". The aim of this study was to investigate copper bioaccumulation, subcellular distribution and toxic effect in the marine benthic species Scrobicularia plana exposed to two forms of sediment-associated copper, as nanoparticles (CuO NPs) and as soluble ions (CuCl2). Results showed that the exposure to different copper forms activated specific organism's metal handling strategies. Clams bioaccumulated soluble copper at higher concentrations than those exposed to sediment spiked with CuO NPs. Moreover, CuO NPs exposure elicited a stronger detoxification response mediated by a prompt mobilization of CuO NPs to metal-containing granules as well as a delayed induction of MT-like proteins, which conversely, sequestered soluble copper since the beginning of the exposure at levels significantly different from the control. Eventually, exposure to high concentrations of either copper form led to the same acute toxic effect (100% mortality) but the outcome was delayed in bivalves exposed to CuO NPs suggesting that the mechanisms underlying toxicity were copper form-specific. Indeed, while most of soluble copper was associated to the mitochondrial fraction suggesting an impairment of the ATP synthesis capacity at mitochondrial level, CuO NPs toxicity was most likely caused by the oxidative stress mediated by their bioaccumulation in the enzymatic and mitochondrial metabolically available fractions.

Abstract
Deltamethrin (DLM) is widely used in agriculture and the prevention of human insect-borne diseases. However, the molecular mechanism of DLM induced liver injury remains unclear to date. This study investigated the potential molecular mechanism that DLM induced liver fibrosis in quails. Japanese quails received resveratrol (500 mg/kg) daily with or without DLM (45 mg/kg) exposure for 12 weeks. Histopathology, transmission electron microscopy, biochemical indexes, TUNEL, quantitative real-time PCR, and western blot analysis were performed. DLM exposure induced hepatic steatosis, oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Most importantly, the Nrf2/TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway played an important role on DLM-induced liver fibrosis in quails. Interestingly, the addition of resveratrol, an Nrf2 activator, alleviates oxidative stress and inflammation response by activating Nrf2, thereby inhibits the liver fibrosis induced by DLM in quails. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that chronic exposure to DLM induces oxidative stress via the Nrf2 expression inhibition and apoptosis, and then results in liver fibrosis in quails by the activation of NF-κB/TNF-α and TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway.

Abstract
There is an increasing awareness of how damaging pollutants in the marine environment can be, however information on the effects of metal engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) on marine biota is still insufficient, despite an exponential rising in related publications in recent years. In order to provide an integrated insight on the present state of the art on metal ENP-related ecotoxicology studies on marine fauna, this review aimed to: (i) highlight the means of toxicity of metal ENPs in the marine environment, (ii) identify the principal biotic and abiotic factors that may alter metal ENP toxicity, and (iii) analyse and categorize results of these studies, including accumulation, molecular and histological biomarkers, genotoxicity and behavioural changes. Data retrieved from Scopus yielded 134 studies that met pre-established criteria. Most often, the target ENPs were titanium, zinc, copper or silver, and most studies (61.2%) focused on the phylum Mollusca. The degree of toxicity of metal ENPs was often dependent on the concentrations tested, length of exposure and the type of tissue sampled. Effects from simple tissue accumulation to DNA damage or behavioural alterations were identified, even when concentrations below environmentally available levels were used. It is proposed that other phyla besides the traditional Mollusca (and within it Bivalvia) should be used more often in this kind of studies, that exact pathways of toxicity be further explored, and lastly that co-stressors be used in order to best mimic conditions observed in nature. In this review, the current knowledge on engineered metal nanoparticles and their effects on marine fauna was summarized, highlighting present knowledge gaps. Guidelines for future studies focusing on under-developed subjects in ENP toxicology are also briefly provided.

Abstract
Copper is a widespread pollutant in marine environments, and marine animals can ingest large amounts of copper through the food chain. Here, an 8-week feeding trial was designed to investigate the effects of different dietary copper levels on coloration, copper bioaccumulation, stress response and oxidation resistance of juvenile mud crab Scylla paramamosain. The results indicated that crabs fed the diet with 162 mg/kg copper exhibited a dark-blue carapace and hemolymph. The accumulation of copper in tissues was positively correlated with the level of copper in feed. High/excess dietary copper (162 mg/kg) up-regulated the expression of stress response related genes, and reduced the expression/activities of anti-oxidation genes/enzymes. The activity of phenoloxidase decreased significantly when dietary copper level was 86-162 mg/kg, and the expression of hemocyanin was up-regulated in crab fed the diets with 28-162 mg/kg copper. Overall, the results of the present study indicated that high dietary copper led to parachrea in carapace and hemolymph of mud crab, and caused copper deposition abnormality in carapace and hepatopancreas. The data suggested that the toxic effects of dietary copper were concentration-dependent such that, excess dietary copper (162 mg/kg) had adverse impacts on oxidation resistance.

Abstract
One of the key components for environmental risk assessment of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) is data on bioaccumulation potential. Accurately measuring bioaccumulation can be critical for regulatory decision making regarding material hazard and risk, and for understanding the mechanism of toxicity. This perspective provides expert guidance for performing ENM bioaccumulation measurements across a broad range of test organisms and species. To accomplish this aim, we critically evaluated ENM bioaccumulation within three categories of organisms: single-celled species, multicellular species excluding plants, and multicellular plants. For aqueous exposures of suspended single-celled and small multicellular species, it is critical to perform a robust procedure to separate suspended ENMs and small organisms to avoid overestimating bioaccumulation. For many multicellular organisms, it is essential to differentiate between the ENMs adsorbed to external surfaces or in the digestive tract and the amount absorbed across epithelial tissues. For multicellular plants, key considerations include how exposure route and the role of the rhizosphere may affect the quantitative measurement of uptake, and that the efficiency of washing procedures to remove loosely attached ENMs to the roots is not well understood. Within each organism category, case studies are provided to illustrate key methodological considerations for conducting robust bioaccumulation experiments for different species within each major group. The full scope of ENM bioaccumulation measurements and interpretations are discussed including conducting the organism exposure, separating organisms from the ENMs in the test media after exposure, analytical methods to quantify ENMs in the tissues or cells, and modeling the ENM bioaccumulation results. One key finding to improve bioaccumulation measurements was the critical need for further analytical method development to identify and quantify ENMs in complex matrices. Overall, the discussion, suggestions, and case studies described herein will help improve the robustness of ENM bioaccumulation studies.

Abstract
Ocean acidification and warming may threaten future seafood production, safety and quality by negatively impacting the fitness of marine species. Identifying changes in nutritional quality, as well as species most at risk, is crucial if societies are to secure food production. Here, changes in the biochemical composition and nutritional properties of the commercially valuable oysters, Magallana gigas and Ostrea edulis, were evaluated following a 12-week exposure to six ocean acidification and warming scenarios that were designed to reflect the temperature (+3 °C above ambient) and atmospheric pCO2 conditions (increase of 350-600 ppm) predicted for the mid-to end-of-century. Results suggest that O. edulis, and especially M. gigas, are likely to become less nutritious (i.e. containing lower levels of protein, lipid, and carbohydrate), and have reduced caloric content under ocean acidification and warming. Important changes to essential mineral composition under ocean acidification and warming were evident in both species; enhanced accumulation of copper in M. gigas may be of concern regarding consumption safety. In light of these findings, the aquaculture industry may wish to consider a shift in focus toward species that are most robust to climate change and less prone to deterioration in quality, in order to secure future food provision and socio-economic benefits of aquaculture.
