Responses of marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis (Bivalvia: Mytilidae) after infection with the pathogen Vibrio splendidus. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2019; 221:1-9. [PMID: 30905845 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2019.03.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2019] [Revised: 03/14/2019] [Accepted: 03/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Bivalve molluscs possess effective cellular and humoral defence mechanisms against bacterial infection. Although the immune responses of mussels to challenge with pathogenic vibrios have been largely investigated, the effects at the site of injection at the tissue level have not been so far evaluated. To this aim, mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis were herein in vivo challenged with Vibrio splendidus to assess the responses induced in hemolymph and posterior adductor muscle (PAM), being the site of bacterial infection. The number of living intra-hemocyte bacteria increased after the first hour post-injection (p.i.), suggesting the occurrence of an intense phagocytosis, while clearance was observed within 24 h p.i. A recruitment of hemocytes at the injection site was found in mussel PAM, together with marked morphological changes in the volume of muscular fibers, with a recovery of muscle tissue organization after 48 h p.i. A concomitant impairment in the osmoregulatory processes were observed in PAM by an initial inhibition of aquaporins and increased immunopositivity of Na+/K+ ATPase ionic pump, strictly related to the histological alterations and hemocyte infiltration detected in PAM. Accordingly, an intense cell turnover activity was also recorded following the infection event. Overall, results indicated the hemolymph as the system responsible for the physiological adaptations in mussels to stressful factors, such as pathogenicity, for the maintenance of homeostasis and immune defence. Also, the osmotic balance and cell turnover can be used as objective diagnostic criteria to evaluate the physiological state of mussels following bacterial infection, which may be relevant in aquaculture and biomonitoring studies.

Abstract
No study has been done on the existence, biochemical characteristics, and modulation of K+-independent ouabain-insensitive Na+ ATPase activity (the second sodium pump) in the digestive tract of intertidal euryhaline crabs and moreover on the coexistence and modulation under distinct physiological and (or) environmental conditions of different sodium pumps. We determined the occurrence, characteristics, and responses at different times (0, 1, 24, 48, and 120 h) after feeding upon distinct salinities of Na+ ATPase activity and Na+/K+ ATPase in the hepatopancreas of Neohelice granulata (Dana, 1851), which is a model species. The stimulation by Na+ under total inhibition of Na+/K+ ATPase activity revealed the occurrence of Na+ ATPase activity that was totally inhibited by 2 mmol·L–1 furosemide, exhibits Michaelis–Menten kinetics for ATP (apparent Km = 0.52 ± 0.16 mmol·L–1), and highest activity at around pH 7.4. In crabs acclimated to 35 psu (osmoconforming conditions), Na+ ATPase activity was highly increased (about 15-fold) (532 ± 58 nmol Pi·mg protein−1·min−1) in the hepatopancreas 48 h after feeding. In 10 psu (hyper-regulating conditions), Na+ ATPase activity decreased in the hepatopancreas 24 h after feeding (7 ± 9 nmol Pi·mg protein−1·min−1) and recovered initial values after 48 h (24 ± 35 nmol Pi·mg protein−1·min−1). Unlike Na+ ATPase, Na+/K+ ATPase activity did not change after feeding at any salinity, suggesting the specific modulation of the second sodium pump and its role in postprandial adjustments in the hepatopancreas.

Abstract
The effect of tributyltin (TBT) on the stability of hemocytic lysosome membranes of the mussel, Mytilus galloprovincialis, and the use thereof as a biomarker of TBT-induced stress, was investigated. Mussels were exposed to 0.1 and 1.0 µg/L tributyltin respectively for 4 weeks. Lysosomal membrane stability of hemocytes was tested weekly by means of the neutral red retention time (NRRT) assay, after which the mussel samples were analyzed for TBT content. The two exposed groups exhibited significantly increased (p < 0.05) whole body TBT concentrations with concomitant significant decreases (p < 0.05) in NRRT (R(2) values of 0.85 and 0.971 for lower and higher exposure groups, respectively). The higher exposure group showed a typical dose-response curve. For the control, no TBT was detected and NRRT remained stable. It was concluded that the NRRT assay could be considered as a useful technique, and lysosomal membrane destabilization a useful early warning and cellular biomarker of stress due to TBT exposure in M. galloprovincialis.

Abstract
A study on the effect oil pollution under normal and reduced salinity had on blue mussels Mytilus edulis L. from the White Sea in an aquarium-based experiment and in the natural habitat revealed a change in gill total lipids as a compensatory response. The cholesterol concentration and the cholesterol/phospholipids ratio in gills were found to reflect the impact of the environmental factors (oil pollution and desalination), and evidence adaptive changes in the cell membrane structure. An elevated content of storage lipids (chiefly triacylglycerols) in the mussels in the aquarium experiment indicates, first of all, the uptake and accumulation of oil products in gill cells under both normal and reduced seawater salinity, while high triacylglycerols level in gill littoral mussels from 'control' biotope in the Gulf of Kandalaksha is primarily associated with the mussel׳s pre-spawning period.

Abstract
In vivo and in vitro experiments elicited different responses to ammonia nitrogen (ammonia-N) of gill and mantle Na,K-ATPase and ouabain-insensitive Na-ATPase activities in the Philippine clam Tapes philippinarum. Short-term (120 h) exposed clams to sublethal ammonia-N (NH(3)+NH (4) (+) ) concentrations (1.5 and 3.0 mg/L ammonia-N) showed enhanced gill and mantle ouabain-insensitive ATPase activity and decreased mantle Na,K-ATPase activity with respect to unexposed clams, while gill Na,K-ATPase was unaffected. In vitro experiments showed that NH (4) (+) could efficiently replace Na(+) in ouabain-insensitive ATPase activation and K(+), but not Na(+), in Na, K-ATPase activation. Simple saturation kinetics was constantly followed with similar K (0.5) values to that of the substituted cation. The same maximal ouabain-insensitive ATPase activation was obtained at 80 mM Na(+) or NH (4) (+) in the gills and at 50 mM Na(+) or NH (4) (+ ) in the mantle and that of Na,K-ATPase at 10 mM K(+) or NH (4) (+) in the presence of 100 mM Na(+) in both tissues. The two coexistent ATPase activities maintained their typical response to ouabain also when stimulated by NH (4) (+) : when activated by Na(+)+K(+) or by Na(+)+NH (4) (+) the ATPase activity was completely suppressed by 10(-3 )M ouabain, whereas the Na(+)- or NH (4) (+) -stimulated ATPase activity was unaffected by up to 10(-2 )M ouabain. The whole of the data suggests a possible involvement of the two ATPase activities in NH (4) (+) transmembrane transport.

Abstract
Perna viridis is an ideal animal for studying the impairment caused by the effects of heavy metals that are often detected in coastal areas. Preliminary bioassay tests revealed that the lethal (LC(100)), median lethal (LC(50)) and sublethal (LC(0)) concentration of silver and chromium to P. viridis were 6.5, 4.0, 2.0 mg l(-1) and 4.5, 2.5, 1.0 mg l(-1), respectively. Toxic effect of silver and chromium was evaluated in the green mussel P. viridis, with reference to oxygen consumption, filtration rate and ATPase system in laboratory experiments. These parameters were selected as the end point of sublethal stress. Oxygen consumption and filtration rates were calculated as a measure of decline in the dissolved oxygen level and algal concentration (feed) in the aquaria water, respectively. Silver and chromium affects both oxygen consumption and filtration rate significantly (P<0.01) at 96 h when compared to control. The activity of ATPases system in the gills, hepatopancreas, ovary and muscle of mussels were inhibited by silver and chromium indicating that metals exerted significant toxic effect. The inhibition of Na(+)K(+) ATPase, Ca(2+) ATPase and Mg(2+) ATPase in the mussels were significant (P<0.05) for silver and highly significant (P<0.01) for chromium, which indicates that chromium was more toxic to mussels when compared to silver. The assessment of oxygen consumption, filtration and ATPases system can thus be used as a valid biomarker in aquatic ecotoxicology studies.
