Abstract
In the last decade, the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum proved to be a promising sentinel species in active biomonitoring programs to assess the effects of environmental contamination on non-target organisms. Given that the highly conserved retinoid (RETs) metabolism supports many biological functions and is perturbed by xenobiotics and used as biomarker for vertebrates, we explored the RETs functions in the crustacean model Gammarus fossarum. More specifically, we studied the implication of all -trans retinoic acid (atRA) in the reproduction (embryo, oocyte, and juvenile production) and development (success and delay of molting) by exposing G. fossarum females to atRA and citral (CIT), a known inhibitor of RA synthesis. In parallel, we exposed gammarids to methoprene (MET) and glyphosate (GLY), two pesticides suspected to interfere with atRA metabolism and signaling and frequently found in water systems. After 14 days of exposure, atRA, CIT, and MET reduced the number of oocytes, whereas only MET caused a reduced number of embryos. After 44 days, MET and GLY showed a tendency to decrease juvenile production. The duration of the molting cycle increased following the exposures to atRA and MET, while the treatment with CIT caused a typical endocrine disruptive inverted U-shaped curve. The exposure to GLY led to increased duration of the molting cycle at the lowest concentrations and lowered molting success at the highest concentration tested. This study highlights for the first time the implication of RA in the oogenesis and molting of G. fossarum and suggests that it may be a potential mediator of MET-induced effects on these processes. This study adds to the comprehension of the reproductive and developmental control in G. fossarum and opens new research avenues to study the effects of xenobiotics on the RET system in this sentinel species. Ultimately, our study will drive the development of RET-based biomarkers for non-target aquatic invertebrates exposed to xenobiotics.

Abstract
Heavy metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and arsenic (As) are of great concern in aquatic ecosystems because of their global distribution, persistence, and biomagnification via the food web. They can induce the expression of cellular protective systems (e.g., detoxification enzymes and antioxidant enzymes) to protect organisms from oxidative stress, which is a high-energy-consuming process. Thus, energy reserves (e.g., glycogen, lipids, and proteins) are utilized to maintain metabolic homeostasis. Although a few studies have suggested that heavy metal stress can modulate the metabolic cycle in crustaceans, information on changes in energy metabolism under metal pollution remains lacking in planktonic crustaceans. In the present study, the activity of digestive enzymes (amylase, trypsin, and lipase) and the contents of energy storage molecules (glycogen, lipid, and protein) were examined in the brackish water flea Diaphanosoma celebensis exposed to Cd, Pb, and As for 48 h. Transcriptional modulation of the three AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and metabolic pathway-related genes was further investigated. Amylase activity was highly increased in all heavy metal-exposed groups, whereas trypsin activity was reduced in Cd- and As-exposed groups. While glycogen content was increased in all exposed groups in a concentration-dependent manner, lipid content was reduced at higher concentrations of heavy metals. The expression of AMPKs and metabolic pathway-related genes was distinct among heavy metals. In particular, Cd activated the transcription of AMPK-, glucose/lipid metabolism-, and protein synthesis-related genes. Our findings indicate that Cd can disrupt energy metabolism, and may be a potent metabolic toxicant in D. celebensis. This study provides insights into the molecular mode of action of heavy metal pollution on the energy metabolism in planktonic crustaceans.

Abstract
Over the last decade, fluctuations of retinoids (RETs), also known as vitamin A and derivatives, have proved to be useful biomarkers to assess the environmental chemical pressure on a wide variety of non-target vertebrates. This use of RET-based biomarkers is of particular interest in the non-target sentinel species Gammarus fossarum in which RETs were shown to influence crucial physiological functions. To study and probe this metabolism in this crustacean model, a UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed to 1) identify and 2) monitor several endogenous RETs in unexposed females throughout their reproductive cycle. Then, females were exposed in controlled conditions to exogenous all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) and citral (CIT), a RA synthesis inhibitor, to simulate an excess or deficiency in RA. Perturbation of vitamin A metabolism by pesticides was further studied in response to methoprene (MET), a juvenile hormone analog as well as glyphosate (GLY). The developed method allowed, for the first time in this model, the identification of RA metabolites (all-trans 4-oxo and 13-cis 4-oxo RA), RA isomers (all-trans and 13-cis RA) as well as retinaldehyde (RALD) isomers (all-trans, 11-cis, and 13-cis RALD) and showed two distinct phases in the reproductive cycle. Retinoic acid successfully increased the tissular concentration of both RA isomers and CIT proved to be efficient at perturbating the conversion from RALD to RA. Methoprene perturbed the ratios between RA isomers whereas GLY had no observed effects on the RET system of G. fossarum females. We were able to discriminate different dynamics of RET perturbations by morphogens (atRA or CIT) or MET which highlights the plausible mediation of RETs in MET-induced disorders. Ultimately, our study shows that RETs are influenced by exposure to MET and strengthen their potential to assess aquatic ecosystem chemical status.

Abstract
The physiological impact of Cd(2+) on Sinopotamon yangtsekiense was evaluated through changes of selected parameters considered as key elements of carbohydrate and protein metabolisms. Crab were exposed to 0.725, 1.45, 2.9mg·L(-1) Cd(2+) for 7, 14 and 21 days. A time- and/or concentration- dependent decrease in muscle glycogen and increase in LDH activity suggested that glycolysis was accelerated during the treatments. Increased protease activity, lowering of FAA and the initially increased and subsequently decreased aminotransferase activities suggest an enhanced protein mobilization during early Cd(2+) exposure followed by a metabolic impairment during late exposure. Decreased hemolymph glucose level was observed in the crabs treated with 2.9mg·L(-1) Cd(2+) for 21d, suggesting an impaired gluconeogenesis. Ammonia level barely changed during the 14d Cd(2+) exposure most likely due to the increased urea and glutamine production; After 1.45 and 2.9mg·L(-1) Cd(2+) treatment for 21d, ammonia was observed increased followed by an exclusive increase in glutamine. Taken together, our results indicate that carbohydrate and protein are mobilized to a varying degree as a compensatory metabolism to response to the energy stress during acute Cd(2+) exposure. As the time lapsed, some symptoms on metabolism obstacle reflect the toxic effect of sublethal Cd(2+).
