Spermatozoal enzymes of fish (NAD+- and NADP-dependent dehydrogenases and creatine kinase (CK)) were previously determined to be sensitive to tributyltin (TBT) in laboratory experiments and were thus indicated for use as biomarkers for TBT exposure. However, the potential ability of spermatozoal enzymes as biomarkers of TBT exposure has never been recapitulated in a field study. For this purpose, the kinetic activities of spermatozoal enzymes of the natural turbot Scophthalmus maximus population from the Gulf of Gdańsk (GDA) and the Pomeranian Bay (POM) in the southern Baltic Sea were measured. Gas chromatography/high-resolution mass spectrometry was used to determine the concentrations of TBT and its breakdown products, dibutyltin (DBT) and monobutyltin (MBT), in the muscle, liver and testes of the male turbot. Males from GDA had significantly higher enzymatic activities and butyltin (BT) content in tissues than those from POM. A general linear model (GLM) showed that lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and CK activities increased significantly with BT concentration in the testes and liver. We indicate the potential effects of TBT pollution on the spermatozoal enzymes of Baltic turbot.  相似文献

Progression from eosinophilic foci to persistent basophilic foci and carcinomas was observed in pollution-induced hepatocellular carcinogenesis in European flounder (Platichthys flesus L.) in a similar sequence as in chemically induced liver cancer in mammals. Image analysis was used to quantify enzyme activity and protein expression as visualised by enzyme and immunohistochemistry in various stages of toxipathic lesions and carcinogenesis. In eosinophilic foci, growth advantage was achieved by increased production of NADPH and pentoses for biosynthesis and cell proliferation due to increased G6PDH capacity during the first steps of clonal adaptation. Simultaneously, oxyradical production by CYP450, phase I was reduced. Overexpression of P-gp mediating multi-xenobiotic resistance was noted in basophilic cell types which persisted during progression towards carcinomas. This was accompanied by increased protein levels of oxyradical scavenging GST-A. These changes are consistent with adaptation and phenotypic expression of the multidrug or xenobiotic resistance (MDR/MXR) type in hepatocarcinomas of European flounder.  相似文献

Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) oxidize endogeneous reactive aldehydes including lipid peroxidation products (propionaldehyde, malondialdehyde) and are also inducible by xenobiotics like DDT and TCDD. ALDHs are found in injured livers and cancers of contaminant-exposed flounder (Platichthys flesus L.) and showed identical characteristics as in hepatocellular carcinomas of rats by its cytosolic localisation, the preferential oxidation of aromatic compounds (benzaldehyde), dependency on NADP as coenzyme and sensitivity to the specific inhibitor disulfiram. Image analysis showed increased activity of NADP-dependent benzaldehyde dehydrogenase localised in a few cells of early eosinophilic foci and in basophilic adenomas, carcinomas and their invasively growing protrusions (satellites). Disulfiram sensitivity to differentiate between the xenobiotic-inducible isozyme and the tumor-specific isozyme in rats was highest in the early stages of carcinogenesis in the liver of fish. Moderate disulfiram inhibition was observed in non-neoplastic and extrafocal tissue. In neoplastic livers of flounder from contaminated areas (Elbe estuary), hepatocytes in early stages of carcinogenesis were best protected against accumulation of toxic aldehydes by increased activity of the specific tumor-associated isozyme.  相似文献

This paper describes the response of two fish species, the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and the common dab (Limanda limanda) to the oil spilled from the Braer tanker which grounded on the southern tip of Shetland, Scotland, on 5 January 1993. Both the immediate sublethal effects and the long-term response to the oil which accumulated in sediments around the Shetland Isles, Scotland, are examined. The primary response measured was the induction of detoxification enzymes and the relationship of the levels or activities of these enzymes to the concentration and distribution of aromatic hydrocarbons measured in sediments, water and fish. The results show that, immediately following the spill, there was a marked induction of Cytochrome P4501A enzymes in salmon, indicative of exposure to bioavailable aromatics. In dab there was evidence of induction at some sites in January 1993 immediately following the spill but, subsequently, no induction has been observed in fish caught in the vicinity of Shetland despite the very high concentrations of oil measured in sediments at some locations. This would indicate that the polyaromatic hydrocarbons in these sediments are unlikely to be directly bioavailable to fish. The effect of the oil spill on hepatic pathology in dab was investigated and shows that pathology predictive of neoplasia, such as basophilic foci and vacuolation, were observed in fish from the most contaminated sites in 1994 but not in 1993. The incidence of this pathology appeared to correlate with the degree of contamination at the sites, but additional studies are required to establish whether this was a consequence of the initial impact and exposure from waterborne oil at the time of the spill or whether it was due to the continued exposure to oil from the sediments.  相似文献

Corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops L.), a protogynous, non-migratory lipfish species, living close to rocky shores was chosen as an indicator species for the monitoring of biological effects of contaminants. Fish were caught by local fisherman at the Norwegian west coast in fjord sites within the framework of the EU BEEP project. The sites represented different point source impacts of (I) copper (a former copper mine), (II) polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs, aluminium smelter discharge), (III) formaldehyde plus PAHs (kelp-factory and influence of the aluminium smelter). Livers of wrasse were studied for histopathological alterations and compared to healthy livers of fish from a reference location. Besides liver morphology, different functional and metabolic parameters were measured to link pathological alterations to functional disorders. The integrity of the lysosomal compartment was tested by the assessment of lysosomal membrane stability (lys), and the accumulation of neutral lipids and lipofuscin. Activity and intracellular localisation of the NADPH-producing enzymes in the liver were assessed histochemically and measured by computer-assisted image analysis. Histopathological alterations were most severe at the site impacted by formaldehyde and PAHs. These findings were associated with highest tumor prevalence, lowest membrane stabilities in hepatocytes and highest accumulation rates of lipofuscin in the liver. The activities of the NADPH-producing enzymes phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGDH) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) were significantly lower compared to unimpacted reference fish. Histopathological alterations showed clear differences dependent on the input source. Potential links between specific contaminant impact and functional and morphological disorders are discussed.  相似文献

As part of a joint workshop organised by the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) on biological effects monitoring techniques. dad (Limanda limanda) were examined from six spaced stations along a 200 km transect extending from near the mouth of the Elbe River out to the Dogger Bank in the North Sea. Based on historical data, differences in contaminant concentrations in sediments exist along the transect (lipophilic organic xenobiotics at the inshore sites and heavy metals offshore over the Dogger Bank). The most contaminated site sampled was the most inshore, the least contaminated was approximately midway along the transect, with contamination building up again over the farthest point along the transect, over the Dogger Bank. Multiple organs and tissues were examined for full pathology from each fish sampled. Only liver data are presented here (11–20 livers per station). The most significant lesions were considered to be well-developed foci of cellular alteration, high mitotic activity and high neutral lipid accumulation in livers from dab sampled from the most inshore site examined. Livers from the least-contaminated station showed minimal evidence of such changes. Foci of cellular alteration and neutral lipid accumulation were also seen in dab liver sampled from fish from the Dogger Bank site. Thus far, the hepatic changes seen correlate well with the most contaminated sites along the transect. The value of comprehensively examining the histopathology of an organ of toxicological significance, such as the liver in a European species of flatfish, is demonstrated.  相似文献

The effects of contaminants on the biochemical parameters of the intensively farmed mussel Perna perna, are unknown. The aim of this study was to compare biochemical responses in mussels held in clean and contaminated sites in Santa Catarina Island, Brazil. Mussels were transplanted from a farming area, Ratones Grande Island (RGI), to two contaminated sites, Itacorubi (ITAC) and Hercílio Luz Bridge (HLB). A reference group was kept at RGI. After 150 and 180 days of exposure, the digestive glands of the mussels were analyzed for catalase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities. No changes were observed in the catalase activity, in both periods. Low G6PDH activity was observed in mussels transplanted for 150 days at the ITAC site. Increased GST activity was observed in mussels from ITAC and HLG sites after 180 days. These responses are probably related to the augmented discharges of domestic effluents associated with elevated rainfall index.  相似文献

This study was conducted to test whether live cells from the liver of fish could be used to detect early changes that are indicative of pollutant-induced liver damage. Low-molecular-weight fluorescent molecular probes were inserted into isolated hepatocytes from dab (Limanda limanda) from a contaminated site and a reference site in the North Sea. These included bioprobes for endoplasmic reticulum (ER), cytochrome P-450-associated 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD), oxyradicals, reduced glutathione (GSH) and microtubules (MT). Endocytosis of Texas Red-albumin was used as an integrated indicator of hepatocyte performance. Findings showed increases in ER-associated fluorescence, EROD and oxyradical generation, with a marked decrease in endocytosis in hepatocytes from fish caught at the contaminated site. These results indicate that fish from the historically contaminated site were impacted by organic xenobiotics which induced the biotransformation system, radical production and cell injury.  相似文献

Oysters Crassostrea rhizophorae and Crassostrea gigas were kept for fourteen days at four sites in S?o José, SC, Brazil, chosen according to a sewage discharge contamination gradient. Enzymatic activities of CAT, GST, G6PDH and GR were evaluated in gills and digestive glands. Higher CAT activity was observed in tissues of C. rhizophorae in response to sewage contamination possibly indicating peroxisome proliferation induction. C. gigas showed elevated G6PDH activity in digestive gland, and GR in gills, after domestic sewage exposure. In conclusion, C. rhizophorae and C. gigas showed different biochemical responses after in situ exposure to domestic sewage. However, C. rhizophorae showed more significant changes in CAT suggesting that this organism could be a better monitor to this kind of effluent.  相似文献

Common dab were fed a casein based diet containing copper at a concentration of 1·4 mg copper kg−1 (dry weight) or a similar diet supplemented with 200 mg copper kg−1. Fish were sampled after 10 weeks and 20 weeks and hepatic and renal copper, zinc and metallothionein concentrations were measured. All hepatic cytosolic copper in test and control fish co-eluted from Sephadex G-75 with metallothionein, as did some of the cytosolic zinc. After 20 weeks there was three times as much of this metallothionein-bound copper in the livers of the test fish compared to the control fish, although metallothionein concentration was little elevated. On the basis of these results it is proposed that cytosolic liver copper concentration or heat stable liver copper concentration can be used as an indication of excess dietary copper in the dab Limanda limanda.  相似文献

The present preliminary report on studies of the influence of pulp bleach plant effluents on hepatic biotransformation enzymes in fish is a part of a major characterisation of biochemical and physiological effects of effluents from pulp industries in Sweden. Our studies on the xenobiotic biotransformation enzymes demonstrate, so far, that the pulp effluents have the potential to strongly induce 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase activity (EROD) in fish liver and that fish living in the receiving water of an effluent from a pulp bleach plant have induced hepatic EROD activities as well as higher hepatic UDP glucuronyltransferase activities than those living in an unpolluted area. It is thus apparent that measures of induction of biotransformation enzymes in fish liver may be a useful approach in monitoring the presence of potential hazardous compounds released from pulp industries.  相似文献

激素敏感性脂肪酶(hormone sensitive lipase,HSL)和乙酰辅酶A羧化酶(acetyl-CoA carboxylase,ACC)是脂代谢的关键酶,肌肉和肝脏是鱼类脂代谢的主要场所。为研究饥饿过程中这两种酶的作用,本实验采用实时荧光定量PCR技术以及ELISA技术检测了在35 d饥饿过程中这两种酶在大黄鱼肌肉和肝组织中mRNA表达水平和酶活性的变化。结果显示,饥饿胁迫显著降低大黄鱼肌肉和肝组织中脂肪含量,以及脂肪合成关键酶ACC mRNA表达水平(P<0.05);显著提高脂肪分解关键酶HSL mRNA表达水平(P<0.05)。饥饿胁迫对肌肉和肝组织中HSL和ACC酶活性均有显著影响(P<0.05),肌肉和肝组织HSL (相关系数r分别为0.598 2和0.539 6)以及肌肉组织ACC酶活性(r=0.677 7)与对应mRNA表达水平呈中度正相关(0.5 < r < 0.8),但ACC酶活性在肝组织与其对应的mRNA表达量呈负相关(r=-0.374 0),提示饥饿胁迫对大黄鱼HSL和ACC的表达存在翻译前和翻译后两种水平的调控。本研究结果可为研究饥饿胁迫对大黄鱼脂类代谢分子层面的影响机制提供依据。  相似文献

English sole (Pleuronectes vetulus) and starry flounder (Platichthys stellatus) are two sympatric flatfish species which show markedly different responses to chemical contaminant exposure. Whereas English sole develop hepatic neoplasms, the prevalences of which are strongly linked to exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), evidence of neoplasia is virtually nonexistent in starry flounder, even those residing in areas with very high levels of PAH in the sediments. Because PAHs are activated to genotoxic forms by the action of cytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A) in teleosts, we are examining the hypothesis that variation in the hepatic expression of this major inducible cytochrome P450 isozyme may contribute to the differential contaminant response. These two species were captured in the Duwamish Waterway, a contaminated area of Puget Sound, Washington. Catalytic activity of CYP1A [determined as aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) activity] was measured in the liver to quantitatively assess the relative induction of CYP1A in these two species, and AHH activity was significantly higher in English sole than in starry flounder (p = 0.015). Cellular expression of CYP1A was determined by immunohistochemical localization of tissues, using an avidin-biotin peroxidase complex method, with polyclonal rabbit anti-cod CYP1A. The results showed a markedly reduced expression of CYP1A in hepatocytes of starry flounder, which is consistent with the apparent resistance of this species to the development of hepatocellular neoplasia. This reduced expression of CYP1A in hepatocytes of contaminant-exposed fish was previously seen in oyster toadfish from the Elizabeth River, Virginia, and this species is also apparently resistant to hepatocellular neoplasia.  相似文献

Monooxygenase reactions catalyzed by cytochromes P-450 are paramount in the oxidative metabolism of many xenobiotics, determining both the persistence and effects of numerous types of compounds. Immunological probes are proving useful in evaluating the functions of P-450 isozymes in microsomal preparations from many species. The regulation of specific isozymes by endogenous and exogenous factors can also be evaluated with such probes. Here we describe studies on the activities apparently catalyzed by induced P-450 in fish, evaluated with both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to cytochrome P-450E, the apparent major β-naphthoflavone(BNF) or methylcholanthrene(MC)-inducible isozyme purified from scup (S. chrysops) liver.  相似文献

采用含有25%葡萄糖、麦芽糖、蔗糖、蔗糖糖蜜、糊精、小麦淀粉等不同糖源的6组等氮、等能量半纯合实验日粮, 研究了不同糖源对吉富罗非鱼稚鱼养殖效果与机理。结果表明, 葡萄糖组、麦芽糖组鱼的特定生长率、饲料效益和蛋白效益显著低于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05); 葡萄糖组和麦芽糖组鱼鱼体总能明显低于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05); 葡萄糖组和麦芽糖组鱼肝脏脂肪、肝糖原和肌糖原含量明显低于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05); 葡萄糖组鱼血糖浓度与总蛋白含量显著低于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05); 葡萄组和麦芽糖组鱼肝组织中己糖激酶(HK)显著高于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05), 葡萄糖-6-磷酸酶(G6Pase)和磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧激酶(PEPCK)显著低于其它各个糖源组鱼(P<0.05)。本实验结果认为, 日粮中不同糖源对吉富罗非鱼稚鱼养殖效果的差异主要与调控鱼体内糖代谢的关键酶己糖激酶(HK)、葡萄糖-6-磷酸酶(G6Pase)和磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧激酶(PEPCK)对不同糖源的糖分子结构不同活性有关, 与糖的分子大小无关。在罗非鱼稚鱼饲料中添加蔗糖糖蜜效果较好。  相似文献
