Abstract
Pesticides inevitably enter aquatic environments, posing potential risks to organisms. The common aquatic model organism, zebrafish (Danio rerio), are widely used to evaluate the toxicity of pesticides. In this review, we searched the Web of Science database for articles published between 2012 and 2022, using the keywords "pesticide", "zebrafish", and "toxicity", retrieving 618 publications. Furthermore, we described the main pathways by which pesticides enter aquatic environments and the fate of their residues in these environments. We systematically reviewed the toxicity effects of pesticides on zebrafish, including developmental toxicity, endocrine-disrupting effects, reproductive toxicity, neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and genotoxicity. Importantly, we summarized the latest research progress on the toxicity mechanism of pesticides to zebrafish based on omics technologies, including transcriptomics, metabolomics, and microbiomics. Finally, we discussed future research prospects, focusing on the combined exposure of multiple pollutants including pesticides, the risk of multigenerational exposure to pesticides, and the chronic toxicity of aquatic nanopesticides. This review provides essential data support for ecological risk assessments of pesticides in aquatic environments, and has implications for water management in the context of pesticide pollution.

Abstract
Water scarcity is increasingly a global cause of concern mainly due to widespread changes in climate conditions and increased consumptive water use driven by the exponential increase in population growth. In addition, increased pollution of fresh water sources due to rising production and consumption of pharmaceuticals and organic chemicals will further exacerbate this concern. Although surface water contamination by individual chemicals is often at very low concentration, pharmaceuticals for instance are designed to be efficacious at low concentrations, creating genuine concern for their presence in freshwater sources. Furthermore, the additive impact of multiple compounds may result in toxic or other biological effects that otherwise will not be induced by individual chemicals. Globally, different legislative frameworks have led to pre-emptive efforts which aim to ensure good water ecological status. Reports detailing the use and types of effect-based measures covering specific bioassay batteries that can identify specific mode of actions of chemical pollutants in the aquatic ecosystem to evaluate the real threat of pollutants to aquatic lives and ultimately human lives have recently emerged from monitoring networks such as the NORMAN network. In this review, we critically evaluate some studies within the last decade that have implemented effect-based monitoring of pharmaceuticals and organic chemicals in aquatic fauna, evaluating the occurrence of different chemical pollutants and the impact of these pollutants on aquatic fauna with special focus on pollutants that are contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) in urban wastewater. A critical discussion on studies that have used effect-based measures to assess biological impact of pharmaceutical/organic compound in the aquatic ecosystem and the endpoints measurements employed is presented. The application of effect-based monitoring of chemicals other than assessment of water quality status is also discussed.

Oncol Lett 2021; 22:693. [PMID: 34457048 PMCID: PMC8358737 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2021.12954] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a major cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide, and bone metastasis is the most prevalent event observed in patients with advanced NSCLC. However, the pathogenesis of bone metastases has not been fully elucidated. In the present study, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by gene expression microarray analysis of NSCLC tissue samples with or without bone metastases. Subsequently, collagen type 6A1 (COL6A1) was chosen as the target gene through Ingenuity Pathway Analysis and reverse transcription-quantitative (RT-q) PCR validation of the top eight DEGs. COL6A1 was overexpressed or knocked down, and the proliferation and invasion of NSCLC cells was assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8, colony formation and Transwell invasion assays. Additionally, the osteogenic capacity of HOB and hES-MP 002.5 cells was assessed using RT-qPCR, western blotting, Alizarin Red and alkaline phosphatase staining. A total of 364 DEGs were identified in NSCLC tissues with bone metastases compared with NSCLC tissues without bone metastases, including 140 upregulated and 224 downregulated genes. Gene Ontology analysis results demonstrated that the upregulated and downregulated genes were primarily enriched in 'cellular process', 'metabolic process' and 'biological regulation'. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis revealed that the upregulated genes were primarily enriched in 'cysteine and methionine metabolism', 'oxidative phosphorylation' and 'ribosome', whereas the downregulated genes were primarily enriched in the 'transcriptional misregulation in cancer', 'ribosome' and 'mitophagy-animal' pathways. COL6A1 was highly expressed in NSCLC tissue samples with bone metastases. Functionally, COL6A1 overexpression induced the proliferation and invasion of HARA cells, and its knockdown inhibited the proliferation and invasion of HARA-B4 cells. Finally, it was demonstrated that HOB and hES-MP 002.5 cells exhibited osteogenic capacity, and overexpression of COL6A1 in HARA cells increased the adhesion of these cells to the osteoblasts, whereas knockdown of COL6A1 in HARA-B4 cells reduced their adhesive ability. In conclusion, COL6A1 may serve as a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for bone metastasis in NSCLC.
