Bioaccumulation, cellular and molecular effects in adult zebrafish after exposure to cadmium sulphide quantum dots and ionic cadmium

ABSTRACT: Few works have addressed the effects provoked by the exposure to cadmium containing nanoparticles (NPs) on adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). We studied the effects of CdS NPs (5 nm) or ionic cadmium (10 µg Cd/L) after 3 and 21 d of exposure and at 6 months post-exposure (mpe). Acute toxicity was recorded after exposure to both forms of cadmium. Significant cadmium accumulation was measured in the whole fish after both treatments and autometallography showed a higher accumulation of metal in the intestine than that in the liver. Histopathological alterations, such as inflammation in gills and vacuolization in the liver, were detected after the exposure to both cadmium forms and, in a lower extent, at 6 mpe. X-ray analysis proved the presence of CdS NPs in these organs. The hepatic transcriptome analysis revealed that gene ontology terms such as “immune response” or “actin binding” were over-represented after 21 d of exposure to ionic cadmium respect to CdS NPs treatment. Exposure to CdS NPs caused a significant effect on pathways involved in the immune response and oxidative stress, while the exposure to ionic cadmium affected significantly pathways involved in DNA damage and repair and in the energetic metabolism. Oxidative damage to liver proteins was detected after the exposure to ionic cadmium, while a stronger destabilization of the hepatocyte lysosomal membrane was recorded under exposure to CdS NPs. In summary, although ionic cadmium provoked stronger effects than CdS NPs, both cadmium forms exerted an array of lethal and sublethal effects to zebrafish.

Waterborne exposure of adult zebrafish to silver nanoparticles and ionic silver results in silver accumulation and effects at cellular and molecular levels

Project description:Effects of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) on freshwater species have been reported in several studies, but there is not information on the potential long-term consequences of a previous exposure. In this work, we investigated the long-term effects of maltose-coated Ag NPs (20 nm) and of ionic silver (10 µg/L) after 21 days of exposure and at 6 months post-exposure (mpe) in adult zebrafish. Exposure resulted in significant silver accumulation in the whole body of fish exposed to ionic silver, but not in those exposed to Ag NPs. However, autometallography revealed metal accumulation in the liver and intestine of fish treated with the two silver forms and especially in the intestine of fish exposed to Ag NPs. X-ray microanalysis showed the presence of silver in gills, liver and intestine and of Ag NPs in gill and liver cells. Inflammation and hyperplasia were evident in the gills after both treatments and these histopathological conditions remained at 6 mpe. According to the hepatic transcriptome analysis, at 3 days ionic silver regulated a larger number of transcripts (410) than Ag NPs (129), while at 21 days Ag NPs provoked a stronger effect (799 vs 165 regulated sequences). Gene ontology terms such as “metabolic processes” and “response to stimulus” appeared enriched after all treatments, while “immune system” or “reproductive processes” were specifically enriched after the exposure to Ag NPs. This suggests that the toxicity of Ag NPs may not be solely related to the release of Ag ions, but also to the NP form. No evident effects were found on protein oxidation or on hepatocyte lysosomal membrane stability during exposure, but effects recorded on liver lysosomes and persistent damage on gill tissue at 6 mpe could indicate potential for long-term effects in exposed fish.

Threonine dehydratase couples L-cysteine metabolism to cadmium resistance in Pseudomonas stutzeri 273 through cadmium sulfide nanoparticle biomineralization

Project description:Cysteine is an amino acid containing sulfhydryl (-SH) group which is the basis of cysteine involved in sulfur metabolism and heavy metal detoxification in microorganisms. Here, we demonstrate that adding L-cysteine significantly improves the cadmium resistance and removal ability of Pseudomonas stutzeri 273. Threonine dehydratase (TSD) connects L-cysteine metabolism and cadmium resistance through CdS nanoparticle biomineralization with the ability of catalyzing L-cysteine desulfuration and H2S generation in P. stutzeri 273. Gene knockout of TSD in P. stutzeri 273 results in the decrease of L-cysteine and cadmium resistance, decline of H2S generation, and reduction of CdS biosynthesis ability.

Whole transcriptome analysis of cadmium sulphide quantum dots response in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Cadmium sulphide quantum dots (CdS QDs) are widely used in novel equipment. The relevance of the research lies in the need to develop risk assessments for nanomaterials (ENMs), using baker's yeast as model system. A whole-genome microarray experiment, performed on Saccharomyces cerevisiae (BY4742), showed how genes were regulated in response to CdS QDs.

Hepatic gene expression data from cadmium-exposed mice

Project description:Environmental cadmium, with a high average dietary intake, is a severe public health risk. However, the long-term health implications of environmental exposure to cadmium in different life stages remain unclear. We used microarrays to explore the effects of early exposure to low-dose cadmium on hepatic gene expression.

A genome-wide approach in Arabidopsis thaliana to assess the toxicity of cadmium sulfide quantum dots

Project description:Cadmium sulfide quantum dots (CdS QDs) are widely used in novel equipment. The relevance of the research lies in the need to develop risk assessments for nanomaterials, using as basis a model plant species. Here a screen of Arabidopsis thaliana mutant lines was performed in an attempt to identify plants tolerant to CdS QDs. Two tolerant Ds insertion mutant lines (atnp01 and atnp02) were identified. A whole-genome microarray experiment showed how genes were regulated by CdS QDs. Most of the genes involved in the response to CdS QDs were related to detoxification and general metabolism. The two mutant lines treated with CdS QDs showed different patterns of gene expression. The genome-wide expression profile of seedlings of the two selected resistant mutants were acquired and compared to that of wild type seedlings using the Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array. The wild type seedlings were exposed to either 0 mg/L, 40 mg/L (1/2 MIC) or 80 mg/L (MIC wt) CdS QDs, and each of the resistant/tolerant mutant line plants to either 0 mg/L or 80 mg/L CdS QDs for 21 days.

Whole blood derived cadmium responsive miRNome

Project description:Purpose: Cadmium is a nonessential heavy metal and a well known toxic agent. Cadmium is known to alter the gene expression and signaling but the role of miRNAs during Cadmium exposure is not understood. Methods: Mice were treated with 100 mg/ ml cadmium chloride for 120 days and accumulation of cadmium in blood and organs are confirmed by GFAAS. Subsequently, the total RNA was isolated from the whole blood and small RNA sequencing was executed in Illumina HiSeq 1000. Results: The reads were annotated to the mice genome and miRNAs in miRbase using miRDeep* and novel miRNAs were also predicted. The differential expression was studied by DeSeq Conclusions: This is the first report to reveal the cadmium responsive miRNome. These candidate miRNAs can serve as biomarkers for cadmium
