[PMID: 39127393 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2024.109824] [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: 06/15/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Plantago asiatica seeds (PS) are commonly used as a medicinal plant. This study investigates the efficacy of PS against heavy metal toxicity in white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei). After feeding PS diet (5 g/kg) or basal diet (control group) for 7 days, shrimps were exposed to sublethal concentrations of heavy metals in seawater (As: 12 mg/L, Pb: 250 mg/L, Hg: 0.4 mg/L). The 7-day survival observation showed that the survival in groups fed with PS were significantly higher than that in the control group, revealing that dietary PS had the efficacy to mitigate heavy metal toxicity in white shrimp. Under the same feeding condition, white shrimps were exposed to safety dose of heavy metals (1/10 of sublethal concentrations) to understand the mechanism of mitigation. The metal accumulations in haemolymph, gills, hepatopancreas, and muscle tissues as well as the immune, anti-oxidative, stress related gene expressions in haemocytes, gills and hepatopancreas were measured for 14 days. The As accumulation in gills and hepatopancreas of groups fed with PS were significantly lower than those of control group on day 7 and 14, respectively; The Pb concentration in haemolymph of group fed with PS was significantly lower than that of control group on day 7 and 14; The Hg concentration in hepatopancreas of the group fed with PS was significantly lower than that of control group on day 7. Dietary PS could mitigate heavy metal-induced immune suppression, oxidative stress, and stress response by positively regulating immune (proPO I, Toll, IMD), antioxidant (SOD, GST, Trx), and negatively regulating stress response genes (HSP70, MT). The present study demonstrated that dietary PS could protect white shrimp against metal toxicity by reducing metal accumulations and regulating the immune, antioxidant, and stress response gene expressions in specific tissue. Therefore, PS may serve as a beneficial feed additive in the aquaculture.

Sparassis latifolia polysaccharide alleviated lipid metabolism abnormalities in kidney of lead-exposed mice by regulating oxidative stress-mediated inflammation and autophagy based on multi-omics. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 278:134662. [PMID: 39128732 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 08/08/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
Lead is a common environmental pollutant which can accumulate in the kidney and cause renal injury. However, regulatory effects and mechanisms of Sparassis latifolia polysaccharide (SLP) on lipid metabolism abnormality in kidney exposed to lead are not clarified. In this study, mice were used to construct an animal model to observe the histopathological changes in kidney, measure lead content, damage indicators, differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) and genes (DEGs) in key signaling pathways that cause lipid metabolism abnormalities based on lipidomics and transcriptomics, which were later validated using qPCR and western blotting. Co-treatment of Pb and N-acetylcysteine (NAC) were used to verify the link between SLP and oxidative stress. Our results indicated that treatment with SLP identified 276 DEMs (including metabolism of glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, glycerolipid and fatty acid) and 177 DEGs (including genes related to oxidative stress, inflammation, autophagy and lipid metabolism). Notably, regulatory effects of SLP on abnormal lipid metabolism in kidney were mainly associated with oxidative stress, inflammation and autophagy; SLP could regulate abnormal lipid metabolism in kidney by reducing oxidative stress and affecting its downstream-regulated autophagy and inflammatory to alleviate renal injury caused by lead exposure. This study provides a theoretical basis for SLP intervention in lead injury.

Sci Bull (Beijing) 2024; 69:621-635. [PMID: 38185590 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2023.12.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine quinone (6PPDQ) has attracted significant attention due to its highly acute lethality to sensitive salmonids. However, studies investigating the mechanisms underlying its acute toxicity have been lacking. In this work, we demonstrated the sensitivity of rainbow trout to 6PPDQ-induced mortality. Moribund trout exhibited significantly higher brain concentrations of 6PPDQ compared to surviving trout. In an in vitro model using human brain microvascular endothelial cells, 6PPDQ can penetrate the blood-brain barrier and enhance blood-brain barrier permeability without compromising cell viability. The time spent in the top of the tank increased with rising 6PPDQ concentrations, as indicated by locomotion behavior tests. Furthermore, 6PPDQ influenced neurotransmitter levels and mRNA expression of neurotransmission-related genes in the brain and exhibited strong binding affinity to target neurotransmission-related proteins using computational simulations. The integrated biomarker response value associated with neurotoxicity showed a positive linear correlation with trout mortality. These findings significantly contribute to filling the knowledge gap between neurological impairments and apical outcomes, including behavioral effects and mortality, induced by 6PPDQ.
