Abstract
The rapid development of the phosphorus chemical industry has caused serious pollution problems in the regional eco-environment. However, understanding of their ecotoxic effects remains limited. This study aimed to investigate the developmental toxicity of a stream polluted by a phosphorus chemical plant (PCP) on zebrafish embryos. For this, zebrafish embryos were exposed to stream water (0, 25, 50, and 100% v/v) for 96 h, and developmental toxicity, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and DNA damage were assessed. Stream water-treated embryos exhibited decreased hatching rates, heart rates, and body lengths, as well as increased mortality and malformation rates. The general morphology score system indicated that the swim bladder and pigmentation were the main abnormal morphological endpoints. Stream water promoted antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx)), lipid peroxidation, and DNA damage. It also triggered apoptosis in the embryos' heads, hearts, and spines by activating apoptotic enzymes (Caspase-3 and Caspase-9). Additionally, stream water influenced growth, oxidative stress, and apoptosis-related 19 gene expression. Notably, tyr, sod (Mn), and caspase9 were the most sensitive indicators of growth, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, respectively. The current trial concluded that PCP-polluted stream water exhibited significant developmental toxicity to zebrafish embryos, which was regulated by the oxidative stress-mediated activation of endogenous apoptotic signaling pathways.

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2024; 106:104371. [PMID: 38244881 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2024.104371] [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: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
Microplastics have become a great worldwide problem and it's therefore important to study their possible effects on human and environmental health. In this study, zebrafish embryos were used to compare two different sizes of polystyrene microplastics (PS-MPs), 1 µm and 3 µm respectively, at 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 mgL-1, and were monitored up to 72 h. Toxicity tests demonstrated that neither of the PS-MPs altered the embryos' survival and the normal hatching process. Instead, higher concentrations of both sizes caused an increase of the heart rate and phenotypic changes. The PS-MPs of both sizes entered and accumulated in the larvae at the concentration of 10.0 mgL-1 and the same concentration caused an increase of apoptotic processes correlated to redox homeostasis changes. The reported results give a realistic view of the negative effects of exposure to PS-MPs and provide new information on their toxicity, also considering their sizes.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 242:117787.

Abstract
Microplastic (MP) pollution raises urgent concerns about the environmental well-being and the safety of the food supply for humans. Mussels are essential filter-feeding organisms that may be highly susceptible to MPs uptake due to their global distribution and sedentary lifestyle. There is also a knowledge gap regarding MP levels in commercially-farmed and wild-sourced mussels for human consumption, creating gaps in risk identification for food safety. This study aims to fill this gap in understanding by (a) investigating the presence and abundance of MPs in both wild and aquacultured mussels collected from six different stations in the Sea of Marmara, (b) comparing the levels of MPs between aquacultured and wild mussels, and (c) evaluating the potential health risks associated with the consumption of these contaminated mussels. Polymer types were verified by ATR-FTIR (Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform- Infrared Spectroscopy), and 6 different polymers have been identified. Among the total 753 identified MPs, the majority (79.8%) were fibers, with the predominant size range (42.4%) falling between 0.1 and 0.5 mm. Consuming wild mussels was associated with a 187.6% higher risk of MP intake compared to aquaculture. A consumer can potentially be exposed to 133.11 to 844.86 MP particles when consuming a 100 g serving of mussels, with risks becoming more significant as portion sizes increase, as is the case in some countries where portions reach 225 g. In this study, detailed information is presented on MP pollution in both wild and aquacultured mussels from Sea of Marmara, providing valuable insights for ensuring food safety, effective management and control of MP pollution in this region.

AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2023; 265:106774. [PMID: 38000134 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2023.106774] [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: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Micro- and nano-plastics (MPs/NPs) are characterized by their small size and extensive surface area, making them global environmental pollutants with adverse effects on organisms at various levels, including organs, cells, and molecules. Freshwater organisms, such as microalgae, emerging plants, zooplankton, benthic species, and fish, experience varying impacts from MPs/NPs, which are prevalent in both terrestrial and aquatic inland environments. MPs/NPs significantly impact plant physiological processes, including photosynthesis, antioxidant response, energy metabolism, and nitrogen removal. Extended exposure and ingestion to MPs/NPs might cause metabolic and behavioral deviations in zooplankton, posing an extinction risk. Upon exposure to MPs/NPs, both benthic organisms and fish display behavioral and metabolic disturbances, due to oxidative stress, neural toxicity, intestinal damage, and metabolic changes. Results from laboratory and field investigations have confirmed that MPs/NPs can be transported across multiple trophic levels. Moreover, MPs/NPs-induced alterations in zooplankton populations can impede energy transfer, leading to food scarcity for filter-feeding fish, larvae of benthic organism and fish, thus jeopardizing aquatic ecosystems. Furthermore, MPs/NPs can harm the nervous systems of aquatic organisms, influencing their feeding patterns, circadian rhythms, and mobility. Such behavioral alterations might also introduce unforeseen ecological risks. This comprehensive review aims to explore the consequences of MPs/NPs on freshwater organisms and their interconnected food webs. The investigation encompasses various aspects, including behavioral changes, alterations in physiology, impacts on metabolism, transgenerational effects, and the disruption of energy transfer within the ecosystem. This review elucidated the physiological and biochemical toxicity of MPs/NPs on freshwater organisms, and the ensuing risks to inland aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
Paroxetine (PRX) is a common antidepressant drug which widely existence in natural environment. Numerous studies in the past few decades have focused on the beneficial effects of PRX on depression, however, the toxic properties and the potential mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, zebrafish embryos were exposed to 1.0, 5.0, 10 and 20 mg/L of PRX from 4 to 120-hour-post-fertilization (hpf), and it showed that PRX exposure caused adverse effects in zebrafish embryos, including decreased body length, blood flow velocity, cardiac frequency, cardiac output and increased burst activity and atria area. Meanwhile, the Tg (myl7: EGFP) and Tg (lyz: DsRed) transgenic zebrafish were used to detect the cardiotoxicity and inflammation response of PRX. Moreover, the heart development associated genes (vmhc, amhc, hand2, nkx2.5, ta, tbx6, tbx16 and tbx20) and inflammatory genes (IL-10, IL-1β, IL-8 and TNF-α) were up-regulated after PRX challenge. In addition, Aspirin was used to alleviate the PRX-induced heart development disorder. In conclusion, our study verified the PRX induced inflammatory related cardiotoxicity in larva zebrafish. Meanwhile, the current study shown the toxic effects of PRX in aquatic organism, and provide for the environmental safety of PRX.

Toxicity assessment of SARS-CoV-2-derived peptides in combination with a mix of pollutants on zebrafish adults: A perspective study of behavioral, biometric, mutagenic, and biochemical toxicity. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 858:159838.

Abstract
The dispersion of SARS-CoV-2 in aquatic environments via the discharge of domestic and hospital sewage has been confirmed in different locations. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the possible impacts of zebrafish (Danio rerio) exposure to SARS-CoV-2 peptide fragments (PSPD-2001, 2002, and 2003) alone and combined with a mix of emerging pollutants. Our data did not reveal the induction of behavioral, biometric, or mutagenic changes. But we noticed an organ-dependent biochemical response. While nitric oxide and malondialdehyde production in the brain, gills, and muscle did not differ between groups, superoxide dismutase activity was reduced in the "PSPD", "Mix", and "Mix+PSPD" groups. An increase in catalase activity and a reduction in DPPH radical scavenging activity were observed in the brains of animals exposed to the treatments. However, the "Mix+PSPD" group had a higher IBRv2 value, with NO levels (brain), the reduction of acetylcholinesterase activity (muscles), and the DPPH radical scavenging activity (brain and muscles), the most discriminant factors for this group. The principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical clustering analysis indicated a clear separation of the "Mix+PSPD" group from the others. Thus, we conclude that exposure to viral fragments, associated with the mix of pollutants, induced more significant toxicity in zebrafish adults than in others.

Abstract
Cypermethrin (CYP), a synthetic type II pyrethroid pesticide, is extensively used to control pests in industrial, domestic, and agricultural environments. However, its indiscriminate use leads to a potential threat to aquatic organisms. Although several reports focussed on developmental toxicity effects, a concise study combining cardiotoxicity along with Na+/K+-ATPase activity and molecular docking of developmental proteins with CYP was lacking. This present study was designed to address this gap to comprehend the impact of CYP exposure (0, 25, 100 and 200 µg/L) on embryonic zebrafish. As a result, CYP delayed the hatching rate, reduced heart rate, increased mortality rate and induced numerous morphological abnormalities. Subsequently, CYP induced oxidative stress in treated zebrafish embryos with the concomitant increase in antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT) and malondialdehyde production. In addition, an alteration in AChE, NO content and Na+/K+-ATPase activity was observed, suggesting a disruption in cardiac development and ion regulation. Furthermore, AO staining showed notable apoptotic cells which are supported by alteration in apoptosis-related gene expressions. Moreover, to explore the putative targets of CYP, computational docking with developmental proteins (WNT3A, WNT8A, GATA-4, Nkx 2-5 and ZHE1) showed strong interactions and binding. Taken together, our findings provide a better understanding of assessing the ecotoxicological risk information and the mode of action underlying the development of teleost fishes following CYP exposure. Meanwhile, the pioneering nature of this study is to emphasize the future use of Na+/K+-ATPase activity as a potential toxicity biomarker and in silico molecular docking studies to complement developmental toxicity findings.

Abstract
Due to their large-scale manufacture and widespread application, global concern regarding microplastics (MPs) has been increasing rapidly over the past decade, in particular their potential genotoxicity. The genome is constantly exposed to genotoxic insults that can lead to accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), DNA damage, cell death, inflammation or genetic regulation which in turn can have consequences for health, such as the induction of carcinogenesis. In this review, we presented a comprehensive landscape of the effects of MPs on genotoxicity including the molecular mechanisms. Followed by the MP research trend analysis from a global viewpoint including the comparative research between China and USA and point out that scientists should continue to substantially contribute to the field of MPs through more extensive academic investigation, global cooperation, and the development of novel control methods. Challenges are also discussed. Overall, this review provides insights into the genotoxic effects of MPs on human health and related research trends in this field.
