Abstract
Zinc is an essential trace element that acts as a co-factor for many enzymes and transcription factors required for cellular growth and development. Altering intracellular zinc levels can produce dramatic effects ranging from cell proliferation to cell death. To avoid such fates, cells have evolved mechanisms to handle both an excess and a deficiency of zinc. Zinc homeostasis is largely maintained via zinc transporters, permeable channels, and other zinc-binding proteins. Variation in these proteins might affect their ability to interact with zinc, leading to either increased sensitivity or resistance to natural zinc fluctuations in the environment. We can leverage the power of the roundworm nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as a tractable metazoan model for quantitative genetics to identify genes that could underlie variation in responses to zinc. We found that the laboratory-adapted strain (N2) is resistant and a natural isolate from Hawaii (CB4856) is sensitive to micromolar amounts of exogenous zinc supplementation. Using a panel of recombinant inbred lines, we identified two large-effect quantitative trait loci (QTL) on the left arm of chromosome III and the center of chromosome V that are associated with zinc responses. We validated and refined both QTL using near-isogenic lines (NILs) and identified a naturally occurring deletion in sqst-5, a sequestosome-related gene, that is associated with resistance to high exogenous zinc. We found that this deletion is relatively common across strains within the species and that variation in sqst-5 is associated with zinc resistance. Our results offer a possible mechanism for how organisms can respond to naturally high levels of zinc in the environment and how zinc homeostasis varies among individuals.

Elevated temperature enhances the bioavailability of pyrene to Daphnia magna in the presence of dissolved organic matter: Implications for the effect of climate warming. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2020; 266:115349. [PMID: 32791466 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.115349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2020] [Revised: 07/10/2020] [Accepted: 07/29/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is an essential factor in natural waters to affect the bioavailability of hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs). Climate warming may influence the partition of HOCs between DOM and water as well as the physiology of organisms. Thus, we hypothesized that elevated temperature might affect the bioavailability of HOCs in the presence of DOM. To test this hypothesis, the effect of temperature on the bioavailability of pyrene to Daphnia magna (D. magna) in water-DOM (fulvic acid) system was investigated. The results showed that, although the concentration of freely dissolved pyrene increased slightly with temperature in the presence of DOM when the level of total dissolved pyrene was kept constant, D. magna immobilization (increased by 50.0-167%) and internal body burden of pyrene (increased by 18.4-41.5%) increased significantly with every 4 °C increase in temperature (16, 20, 24 °C). The main reasonable explanation for this result is that elevated temperature promoted pyrene uptake by D. magna. It was found that the increase percentage of 1-hydroxypyrene (main metabolite of pyrene) concentrations with temperature was higher than that of pyrene concentrations in the body except gut of D. magna. This result indicated that increased temperature might enhance the metabolic rates of D. magna, thus leading to increased uptake rate of freely dissolved and DOM-associated pyrene. This study suggests that elevated temperature might enhance the bioavailability of HOCs in natural waters through influencing both the bioavailable fraction of HOCs and their uptake rates in aquatic organisms, and this should be considered for evaluating their eco-environmental risks under the context of climate warming.

Abstract
The toxicity of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and cadmium (Cd) to the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was characterised under single metal and mixture scenarios at different organisational levels. The effects on population size and body length were investigated at two concentrations corresponding to the 24 h LC5 and LC20 levels. Metal toxicity was dependent on metal concentration, exposure time and mixture composition. Populations exposed to LC20 levels of Cd, ZnCu, CuCd and ZnCuCd plummeted, while for all LC5 concentrations, population size continued to increase, albeit that single metals were less harmful than mixtures. Combinations of the LC20 concentration of Cd with a range of Zn concentrations showed concentration dependent mitigating effects on population size and antagonistic effects on mortality. By combining effects at different organisational levels, more insight into metal toxicity was obtained. Metal effects were more evident on population size than on body length or mortality, suggesting that population size could be considered as a sensitive endpoint. Furthermore, our observations of ZnCd mixture effects at the individual and population levels are consistent with literature data on the dose-dependent expression of the cdf-2 gene, which is involved in mediation of Zn and Cd toxicity.

Abstract
Small heat shock proteins (sHsps), present from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, are a highly conserved molecular chaperone family. They play a crucial role in protecting organisms against cellular insults from single or multiple environmental stressors including heavy metal exposure, heat or cold shock, oxidative stress, desiccation, etc. Here, the toxicity of cadmium and copper, and their ability to modify the cellular growth rate at different temperatures in Escherichia coli cells were tested. Also, the response mechanism of the sHSP aggregation-suppressing protein (AgsA) in such multiple stress conditions was investigated. The results showed that the half effect concentration (EC50 ) of cadmium in AgsA-transformed E. coli cells at 37°C, 42°C, and 50°C were 11.106, 29.50, and 4.35 mg/L, respectively, and that of the control cells lacking AgsA were 5.05, 0.93, and 0.18 mg/L, respectively, while the half effect concentration (EC50 ) of copper in AgsA-transformed E. coli cells at 37°C, 42°C, and 50°C were 27.3, 3.40, and 1.28 mg/L, respectively, and that of the control cells lacking AgsA were 27.7, 5.93, and 0.134 mg/L, respectively. The toxicities of cadmium and copper at different temperatures as observed by their modification of the cellular growth rate and inhibitory effects were in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, biochemical characterization of AgsA protein in cells subjected to cadmium and copper stresses at different temperatures implicated suppressed aggregation of cellular proteins in AgsA-transformed E. coli cells. Altogether, our data implicate the AgsA protein as a sensitive protein-based biomarker for metal-induced toxicity monitoring.

Abstract
Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are ubiquitous stress proteins that are able to protect the cells against cellular insults from temperature, heavy metal etc. However, the molecular chaperone roles of sHSPs in enhancing growth and adaptation under combined temperature and metal stresses in Escherichia coli cells have been poorly understood. Here, we analyze the function of recombinant AgsA, a small heat shock protein from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium under combined temperature and zinc stress in E. coli. Our results show that the heterologous expression of AgsA significantly increases the tolerance of E. coli cells to the combined effect of temperature stress and zinc toxicity by maintaining the stability of soluble proteins. Furthermore, there was remarkable and significant difference in the half effect concentration (EC50) of zinc at all temperatures treatments in both test cells. The EC50s of zinc at 37 °C, 42 °C and 50 °C were 15.24 mg/L, 29.30 mg/L, and 5.98 mg/L respectively in the AgsA-transformed E. coli cells, and 3.03 mg/L, 2.38 mg/L, and 0.373 mg/L, respectively in the control cells lacking AgsA. Together, our data indicate a good concentration-response relationship between all three temperatures treatment and zinc toxicity in E. coli, and establish for the first time the combined effects of temperature and zinc toxicity on E. coli cells. Also, the AgsA protein response to combined thermal and metal stress could serve as a molecular biomarker for the assessment of interactive stress damage to the cells.

Abstract
The soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans was used in 24-h acute exposures to arsenic (As), copper (Cu) and glyphosate (GPS) and to mixtures of As/Cu and As/GPS to investigate the effects of mixture exposures in the worms. A synergistic type of interaction was observed for acute toxicity with the As/Cu and As/GPS mixtures. Sublethal 24-h exposures of 1/1000, 1/100 and 1/10 of the LC50 concentrations for As, Cu and GPS individually and for As/Cu and As/GPS mixtures were conducted to observe responses in locomotory behavior (head thrashing), reproduction, and heat shock protein expression. Head thrash frequency and reproduction exhibited concentration dependent decreases in both individual and combined exposures to the tested chemical stressors, and showed synergistic interactions even at micromolar concentrations. Furthermore, the HSP70 protein level was significantly increased following exposure to individual and combined chemical stressors in wild-type C. elegans. Our findings establish for the first time the effects of exposure to As/GPS and As/Cu mixtures in C. elegans.

Abstract
Zinc is an essential metal that is involved in a wide range of biological processes, and aberrant zinc homeostasis is implicated in multiple human diseases. Cadmium is chemically similar to zinc, but it is a nonessential environmental pollutant. Because zinc deficiency and excess are deleterious, animals require homeostatic mechanisms to maintain zinc levels in response to dietary fluctuations. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is emerging as a powerful model system to investigate zinc trafficking and homeostasis as well as cadmium toxicity. Here we review genetic and molecular studies that have combined to generate a picture of zinc homeostasis based on the transcriptional control of zinc transporters in intestinal cells. Furthermore, we summarize studies of cadmium toxicity that reveal intriguing parallels with zinc biology.

Abstract
Caenorhabditis elegans is a nematode of microscopic size which, due to its biological characteristics, has been used since the 1970s as a model for research in molecular biology, medicine, pharmacology, and toxicology. It was the first animal whose genome was completely sequenced and has played a key role in the understanding of apoptosis and RNA interference. The transparency of its body, short lifespan, ability to self-fertilize and ease of culture are advantages that make it ideal as a model in toxicology. Due to the fact that some of its biochemical pathways are similar to those of humans, it has been employed in research in several fields. C. elegans' use as a biological model in environmental toxicological assessments allows the determination of multiple endpoints. Some of these utilize the effects on the biological functions of the nematode and others use molecular markers. Endpoints such as lethality, growth, reproduction, and locomotion are the most studied, and usually employ the wild type Bristol N2 strain. Other endpoints use reporter genes, such as green fluorescence protein, driven by regulatory sequences from other genes related to different mechanisms of toxicity, such as heat shock, oxidative stress, CYP system, and metallothioneins among others, allowing the study of gene expression in a manner both rapid and easy. These transgenic strains of C. elegans represent a powerful tool to assess toxicity pathways for mixtures and environmental samples, and their numbers are growing in diversity and selectivity. However, other molecular biology techniques, including DNA microarrays and MicroRNAs have been explored to assess the effects of different toxicants and samples. C. elegans has allowed the assessment of neurotoxic effects for heavy metals and pesticides, among those more frequently studied, as the nematode has a very well defined nervous system. More recently, nanoparticles are emergent pollutants whose toxicity can be explored using this nematode. Overall, almost every type of known toxicant has been tested with this animal model. In the near future, the available knowledge on the life cycle of C. elegans should allow more studies on reproduction and transgenerational toxicity for newly developed chemicals and materials, facilitating their introduction in the market. The great diversity of endpoints and possibilities of this animal makes it an easy first-choice for rapid toxicity screening or to detail signaling pathways involved in mechanisms of toxicity.

Abstract
Cultivation for agricultural production often poses threats to nearby wetlands ecosystems in fertile landscapes. In this study, nematode ecological indexes were assessed through the main soil properties of the wetlands, farmlands, and edges of wetlands and farmlands in Jinchuan Wetland by the random sampling. Behavior and reproduction in Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) exposed to the sampled waters were also examined. Stress proteins Hsp70 and Hsp90 were measured both in the living field samples of C. elegans and the lab-tested C. elegans. Our results suggested that disturbance to wetland ecosystems by nitrogen and phosphorus reduced nematode richness and proportions of bacterivore nematodes. Bacterivore nematode diversity and plant-parasitic ecological index were proven to be sensitive indicators of the ecological health of wetlands. Nematode Hsp70 were useful biosensors to monitor and assess the levels of nitrogen and phosphorus pollutions in wetlands. Furthermore, multi-level soil faunal assessments by canonical correspondence analysis showed that Jinchuan Wetland is threatened with non-point source pollution from nearby farmlands.
