ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 258:119402.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues, such as tetracycline (TET), in aquatic environments have become a global concern. The liver and gut are important for immunity and metabolism in aquatic organisms. In this study, juvenile groupers were subjected to 1 and 100 μg/L TET for 14 days, and the physiological changes of these fish were evaluated from the perspective of gut-liver axis. After TET exposure, the liver showed histopathology, lipid accumulation, and the elevated ALT activity. An oxidative stress response was induced in the liver and the metabolic pattern was disturbed, especially pyrimidine metabolism. Further, intestinal health was also affected, including the damaged intestinal mucosa, the decreased mRNA expression levels of tight junction proteins (ZO-1, Occludin, and Claudin-3), along with the increased gene expression levels of inflammation (IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-α) and apoptosis (Casp-3 and p53). The diversity of intestinal microbes increased and the community composition was altered, and several beneficial bacteria (Lactobacillus, Bacteroidales S24-7 group, and Romboutsia) and harmful (Aeromonas, Flavobacterium, and Nautella) exhibited notable correlations with hepatic physiological indicators and metabolites. These results suggested that TET exposure can adversely affect the physiological homeostasis of groupers through the gut-liver axis.

Xenobiotica 2024; 54:150-159. [PMID: 38330245 DOI: 10.1080/00498254.2024.2316646] [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: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
1. Sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate (SDBS) is one of the surfactants used worldwide in detergents which, due to high residual discharges, has great potential to cause ecotoxicological impacts. Therefore, the sublethal effects of SDBS on the gills and skin of male Danio rerio fish were investigated. 2. The fish were distributed into three groups: GC (control), GT1 (0.25 mg/L of SDBS), and GT2 (0.5 mg/L of SDBS) and exposed for 21 days. After the experiment, histopathological analyses of the gills, histochemical analyses (counting of mucous cells), and biochemical analyses (antioxidant defense enzyme analysis, SOD, and CAT) were conducted. 3. A significant increase (p < 0.05) in the incidence of circulatory disorders, progressive, and regressive alterations occurred in the GT1 and GT2 groups. Due to these changes, the total histopathological index of the gills was higher in these groups. Mucous cells in the gills and skin increased. There was an increase in SOD activity and a reduction in CAT activity in these groups. Haematology revealed neutrophilia and lymphocytosis in the blood of GT1 and GT2. 4. The results clearly demonstrate that a 21-day exposure to SDBS causes severe morphophysiological damage to the gills, skin, and blood of D. rerio fish.
