ABSTRACT Carbon-14 (C-14) has been a major contributor to the human radioactive exposure dose, as it is released into environment from nuclear industry in larger quantities compared other radionuclides. This most abundant nuclide enters biosphere organically bound C-14 (OBC-14), posing potential threat public health. Yet, remains unknown how this relatively low radiotoxic induces health risks via chemical effects, such isotope effect. By establishing trophic transfer model involving algae (Scenedesmus obliquus), daphnia (Daphnia magna) and zebrafish (Danio rerio), we demonstrate that rapid incorporation transformation of inorganic by OBC-14 facilitates blending biomolecules zebrafish. We find internalized persistently retained brain zebrafish, affecting DNA methylation causing alterations neuropathology. Global tracing metabolomics with further reveals involvement various critical metabolic pathways, including one-carbon metabolism nucleotide metabolism. thus characterize kinetic effects for 12C/14C key reactions these pathways through experiments density functional theory computations, showing isotopic substitution carbon biochemicals regulates disrupting reaction ratios effects. Our results suggest discharged can be biotransformed impact providing new insights understanding risk C-14, which traditionally considered nuclide.

Traditional approaches for monitoring aquatic pollution primarily rely on chemical analysis and the detection of pollutants in aqueous environments. However, these methods lack realism mechanistic insight and, thus, are increasingly supported by effect-based methods, which offer sensitive endpoints. In this context, daphnids, a freshwater species used extensively molecular ecotoxicology, fast noninvasive to assess impact pollutants. Among phenotypic endpoints used, feeding rate is highly approach because it provides evidence physiological alterations even sublethal concentrations. there has been no standardized method measuring several follow different protocols. There diversity among tests employing large volumes, extensive incubation times, high animal densities, turn utilize measurements algae via fluorescence, radiolabeling, or counting ingested cells. These challenging laborious sometimes require cumbersome instrumentation. present study, we optimized conditions miniaturized fast, sensitive, high-throughput assay based ingestion fluorescent microparticles. The protocol was neonates relation concentration microplastic number animals increase reproducibility. Daphnids, following exposures nonlethal concentrations, were incubated with microplastics; as filter feeders, they ingest new revealed differences physiology daphnids concentrations below toxicity limits range modes action, thus proving be more endpoint assessment.

Metformin has been widely detected in aquatic ecosystems, yet the knowledge of its impact on organisms, particularly at environmentally relevant concentrations, remains limited. In present study, we characterized developmental toxicity metformin zebrafish, utilizing a transcriptome-guided toxicological assessment framework. Transcriptomic analysis conducted concentrations within μg/L range revealed significant disruptions biological processes associated with nucleotide, hydrocarbon, and amino acid metabolism, suggesting disturbance energy homeostasis. This observation was corroborated by energy-targeted metabolomic analysis, wherein considerable number metabolites involved purine pyrimidine citrate cycle displayed alterations. Notably, most intermediates such as acetyl-CoA exhibited remarkable decreases. Additionally, our study identified impediments zebrafish embryonic development, including decreased yolk extension progress, spontaneous contraction body length, increased sac area yolk/while lipid content ratio, low 0.12 μg/L. Furthermore, disruption homeostasis observed to persist into adulthood even after prolonged recovery period. The findings highlighted disruptive effects development teleost thereby prompting reevaluation environmental risk nontarget organisms.

Throughout their lives, humans encounter a plethora of substances capable inducing neurotoxic effects, including drugs, heavy metals and pesticides. Neurotoxicity manifests when exposure to these chemicals disrupts the normal functioning nervous system, some agents have been linked neurodegenerative pathologies such as Parkinson's Alzheimer's disease. The growing concern surrounding impacts both naturally occurring man-made toxic necessitates identification animal models for rapid testing across wide spectrum concentrations, utilization tools detecting system alterations spanning from molecular level up behavioural one. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is gaining prominence in field neuroscience due its versatility. possibility analysing all developmental stages (embryo, larva adult), applying most common "omics" approaches (transcriptomics, proteomics, lipidomics, etc.) conducting range tests makes zebrafish an excellent model neurotoxicity studies. This review delves into main experimental adopted markers analysed studies zebrafish, showing that phenomena can be triggered not only by chemical but also fluctuations temperature. findings presented here serve valuable resource study define new scenarios ecotoxicology suggesting temperature synergistically compound effects substances, intensifying detrimental impact on fish populations.
