Abstract
Ionic liquid tetrafluoroborated-1-tetradecyl-3-methylimidazole salt ([C14mim]BF4) immunotoxicity was investigated in rats using three exposure groups (12.5, 25, and 50 mg kg-1), one recovery group (50 mg kg-1), and a control group without any treatment. The findings demonstrated that, at low doses, [C14mim]BF4 could raise WBC, NEU, and MID and lysozyme levels as well as spleen T-lymphocyte stimulation index in rats, however at high doses, the aforementioned indices were dramatically lowered. As the dose was raised, the proportion of RBC and PLT in the blood as well as CD4+ and CD8+ in the spleen increased, but the quantity of immunoglobulin IgG, IgA, and IgM in the serum as well as the number of NK cells in the spleen considerably dropped. Even though there were varying degrees of improvement 30 days after ceasing exposure, all these changes were unable to return to normal, and the number of NK cells was further decreased. The study demonstrates that [C14mim]BF4 can damage the specific immunity and non-specific immunity of rats, and cause immune dysfunction.

Toxic mechanisms of nanoplastics exposure at environmental concentrations on juvenile red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii): From multiple perspectives. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 352:124125.

Abstract
Nanoplastics pollution has emerged as a global issue due to its widespread potential toxicity. This study delved in to toxic effects of nanoplastics on juvenile P. clarkii and molecular mechanisms from perspectives of growth, biochemical, histopathological analysis and transcriptome level for the first time. The findings of this study indicated that nanoplastics of different concentrations have varying influence mechanisms on juvenile P. clarkii. Nanoplastics have inhibitory effects on growth of juvenile P. clarkii, can induce oxidative stress. The biochemical analysis and transcriptome results indicated that 10 mg/L nanoplastics can activate the antioxidant defense system and non-specific immune system in juvenile P. clarkii, and affect energy metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation. While 20 mg/L and 40 mg/L have a destructive influence on the immune function in juvenile P. clarkii, leading to lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage, and induce apoptosis, can affect ion transport and osmotic pressure regulation. The findings of this study can offer foundational data for delving further into impacts of nanoplastics on crustaceans and toxicity mechanism.

Effects of chronic abamectin stress on growth performance, digestive capacity, and defense systems in red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii). AQUATIC TOXICOLOGY (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2024; 268:106861. [PMID: 38340542 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2024.106861] [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: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
Abamectin is a globally used pesticide, which is one of 16-member macrocyclic lactones compound. As an environmental contaminant, pesticide residues pose a great threat to the health and survival of aquatic animals. Procambarus clarkii is one of the most important economic aquatic animals in China. It is necessary to explore the toxic mechanism of abamectin to P. clarkii. In this study, the toxic mechanism of abamectin to P. clarkii was investigated by 0, 3 and 6 μg/L abamectin stress for 28 days. The digestive-, antioxidant- and immune- related enzymes activities, genes expression levels, and histological observations were analytical indicators of growth performance, digestive capacity, and defense systems. The results in this study showed that with abamectin concentration increasing, the growth of P. clarkii was stunted significantly, and the mortality rate increased significantly. With exposure time and abamectin concentration increasing, the expression levels of related genes, the activities of digestive-, antioxidant-, and immune- related enzymes decreased ultimately. Moreover, through histological observation, it was found that with abamectin concentration increasing, the hepatopancreas, muscle, and intestine were damaged. As elucidated by the results, once abamectin exists in the environment for a long time, even low doses will threaten to healthy growth and survival of P. clarkii. This study explored the potential toxicity and the toxic mechanism of abamectin to P. clarkii, and provides a theoretical basis for further study on the toxicity of pesticides to aquatic animals.

The effects of bisphenol S exposure on the growth, physiological and biochemical indices, and ecdysteroid receptor gene expression in red swamp crayfish, Procambarus clarkii. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2024; 276:109811. [PMID: 38061619 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2023.109811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 11/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of Bisphenol S (BPS) on growth, physiological and biochemical indices, and the expression of ecdysteroid receptor (ECR) of the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii). The gene encoding ECR was isolated from red swamp crayfish by homologous cloning and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The ECR transcripts were 1757 bp long and encoded proteins of 576 amino acids. The quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that the ECR gene was expressed in various tissues under normal conditions, and the highest level was observed in the ovary and the lowest level was observed in the muscle (P < 0.05). Then, the experiment was designed with four different BPS concentrations (0, 1, 10, and 100 μg/L), BPS exposure for 14 days, three parallel groups, and a total of 240 red swamp crayfish. At 100 μg/L BPS, the survival rate, weight gain rate, and relative length rate were decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Malonaldehyde (MDA) content reached the highest level at 100 μg/L BPS. When BPS concentration was higher than 10 μg/L, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were significantly lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). The expression levels of the ECR gene in ovary, intestinal, gill, and hepatopancreas tissues were significantly increased after BPS exposure (P < 0.05). The ECR gene expression in ovaries and Y-organs was significantly higher than other groups in 10 μg/L BPS (P < 0.05). The expressions of the tumor necrosis factor -α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) genes in the hepatopancreas gradually increased, and the highest expression was observed exposed in 100 μg/L BPS (P < 0.05). This research will provide novel insights into the health risk assessment of BPS in aquatic organisms.

Dietary melatonin positively impacts the immune system of crayfish, Cherax destructor, as revealed by comparative proteomics analysis. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2023; 142:109122.

Abstract
Melatonin, an indoleamine with various biological activities, is being used increasingly in the aquaculture industry for its broad immune effects. Cherax destructor is an emerging economically cultured crayfish that faces many problems in the breeding process. Previous work found that dietary melatonin has positive effects on the growth and immunity of C. destructor, but the specific mechanism involved remained unclear. In this study, proteomics was used to determine the mechanism of action of melatonin in C. destructor. Results showed that dietary melatonin resulted in decreased levels of hydrogen peroxide, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase, but increased levels of glutathione peroxidase, acid phosphatase, and glutathione S-transferases. In total, 608 proteins were differentially expressed (418 upregulated and 190 downregulated), and were enriched in three main categories: innate immunity (B cell receptor signaling pathway and natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity), glucose metabolism (pentose phosphate pathway, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and propionate metabolism), and amino acid metabolism (valine, leucine, and isoleucine degradation, and cysteine and methionine metabolism). In addition, dietary melatonin was also involved in the regulation of the mTOR signaling pathway, and upregulated the expression of genes encoding key factors, such as Ras-related GTP-binding protein A/B, eukaryotic initiation factor 4E, eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein, and p70 ribosomal S6 kinase. Overall, this study demonstrates the role of melatonin in the physiological regulation of C. destructor, laying the foundation for the development of melatonin as a feed additive in the aquaculture of this species.

Effects of Salinity Stress on Histological Changes, Glucose Metabolism Index and Transcriptomic Profile in Freshwater Shrimp, Macrobrachium nipponense. Animals (Basel) 2023; 13:2884. [PMID: 37760284 PMCID: PMC10525465 DOI: 10.3390/ani13182884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Salinity is an important factor in the aquatic environment and affects the ion homeostasis and physiological activities of crustaceans. Macrobrachium nipponense is a shrimp that mainly lives in fresh and low-salt waters and plays a huge economic role in China's shrimp market. Currently, there are only a few studies on the effects of salinity on M. nipponense. Therefore, it is of particular importance to study the molecular responses of M. nipponense to salinity fluctuations. In this study, M. nipponense was set at salinities of 0, 8, 14 and 22‱ for 6 weeks. The gills from the control (0‱) and isotonic groups (14‱) were used for RNA extraction and transcriptome analysis. In total, 593 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, of which 282 were up-regulated and 311 were down-regulated. The most abundant gill transcripts responding to different salinity levels based on GO classification were organelle membrane (cellular component), creatine transmembrane transporter activity (molecular function) and creatine transmembrane transport (biological function). KEGG analysis showed that the most enriched and significantly affected pathways included AMPK signaling, lysosome and cytochrome P450. In addition, 15 DEGs were selected for qRT-PCR verification, which were mainly related to ion homeostasis, glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism. The results showed that the expression patterns of these genes were similar to the high-throughput data. Compared with the control group, high salinity caused obvious injury to gill tissue, mainly manifested as contraction and relaxation of gill filament, cavity vacuolation and severe epithelial disintegration. Glucose-metabolism-related enzyme activities (e.g., pyruvate kinase, hexokinase, 6-phosphate fructose kinase) and related-gene expression (e.g., hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, 6-phosphate fructose kinase) in the gills were significantly higher at a salinity of 14‱. This study showed that salinity stress activated ion transport channels and promoted an up-regulated level of glucose metabolism. High salinity levels caused damage to the gill tissue of M. nipponense. Overall, these results improved our understanding of the salt tolerance mechanism of M. nipponense.

Abstract
In order to reveal the acute toxicity and physiological changes of the spotted babylon (Babylonia areolata) in response to environmental manipulation, the spotted babylon was exposed to three pH levels (7.0, 8.0 and 9.0) of seawater and four concentrations of nitrite nitrogen (0.02, 2.7, 13.5 and 27 mg/L). The activities of six immunoenzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), catalase (CAT), acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and peroxidase (POD), were measured. The levels of pH and nitrite nitrogen concentrations significantly impacted immunoenzyme activity over time. After the acute stress of pH and nitrite nitrogen, the spotted babylon appeared to be unresponsive to external stimuli, exhibited decreased vigor, slowly climbed the wall, sank to the tank and could not stand upright. As time elapsed, with the extension of time, the spotted babylon showed a trend of increasing and then decreasing ACP, AKP, CAT and SOD activities in order to adapt to the mutated environment and improve its immunity. In contrast, POD and GSH-PX activities showed a decrease followed by an increase with time. This study explored the tolerance range of the spotted babylon to pH, nitrite nitrogen, and time, proving that external stimuli activate the body's immune response. The body's immune function has a specific range of adaptation to the environment over time. Once the body's immune system was insufficient to adapt to this range, the immune system collapsed and the snail gradually died off. This study has discovered the suitable pH and nitrite nitrogen ranges for the culture of the spotted babylon, and provides useful information on the response of the snail's immune system.

Abstract
As an important trace element and the accessory factor of many enzymatic processes, heavy metal copper is essential to aquatic animals. The toxic mechanism of copper on gill function of M. nipponense was clarified for the first time in terms of histopathological analysis, physiology, biochemistry and the expression of important genes. The results obtained by present in present research showed that heavy metal copper could affect normal respiratory and metabolic activities in M. nipponense. Copper stress could cause damage to the mitochondrial membrane of gill cells in M. nipponense, and the activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex could be inhibited by copper. Copper could affect normal electron transport and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, resulting in the inhibition of energy production. High concentrations of copper could disrupt intracellular ion balance and induce cytotoxicity. The oxidative stress could be induced by copper, leading to excessive ROS. Copper could reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential, lead to the leakage of apoptotic factors, and induce apoptosis. Copper could damage structure of gill, affect normal respiration of gill. This study provided fundamental data for exploring impacts of copper on gill function in aquatic organisms and potential mechanisms of copper toxicity.

Kakade A, Sharma M, Salama ES, Zhang P, Zhang L, Xing X, Yue J, Song Z, Nan L, Yujun S, Li X. Heavy metals (HMs) pollution in the aquatic environment: Role of probiotics and gut microbiota in HMs remediation. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 223:115186. [PMID: 36586709 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.115186] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/27/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The presence of heavy metals (HMs) in aquatic ecosystems is a universal concern due to their tendency to accumulate in aquatic organisms. HMs accumulation has been found to cause toxic effects in aquatic organisms. The common HMs-induced toxicities are growth inhibition, reduced survival, oxidative stress, tissue damage, respiratory problems, and gut microbial dysbiosis. The application of dietary probiotics has been evolving as a potential approach to bind and remove HMs from the gut, which is called "Gut remediation". The toxic effects of HMs in fish, mice, and humans with the potential of probiotics in removing HMs have been discussed previously. However, the toxic effects of HMs and protective strategies of probiotics on the organisms of each trophic level have not been comprehensively reviewed yet. Thus, this review summarizes the toxic effects caused by HMs in the organisms (at each trophic level) of the aquatic food chain, with a special reference to gut microbiota. The potential of bacterial probiotics in toxicity alleviation and their protective strategies to prevent toxicities caused by HMs in them are also explained. The dietary probiotics are capable of removing HMs (50-90%) primarily from the gut of the organisms. Specifically, probiotics have been reported to reduce the absorption of HMs in the intestinal tract via the enhancement of intestinal HM sequestration, detoxification of HMs, changing the expression of metal transporter proteins, and maintaining the gut barrier function. The probiotic is recommended as a novel strategy to minimize aquaculture HMs toxicity and safe human health.
