Abstract This review paper presents fish reproductive toxicology studies with a specific focus on endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) present in the aquatic environment. These substances, including bisphenols, heavy metals, pesticides, phthalates, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), act as hormone mimics, receptor blockers, or enzyme inhibitors that affect hormonal regulation hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. In this review, we provide an overview of adverse effects these pollutants both female male reproduction (i.e., disruption HPG axis, gametogenesis disorders, disturbed embryogenesis, etc.). Even at low concentrations, EDCs can exhibit toxicity fishes. They functioning certain systems within hypothalamus (Kiss/GPR54, GnRH) also impact luteinizing (LH) secretion pituitary. compounds have negative impacts gonads, oocyte maturation, steroidogenesis, gametes. Early-life exposure to substances not only affects embryonic development, resulting increased mortality body malformations, but induces genetic changes newly hatched larvae. All observations underscore need for monitoring environment implementing protective measures preserve health welfare fishes safeguard water ecosystems.

Herbicides have demonstrated their impact on insect fitness by affecting associated microbiota or altering the virulence of entomopathogenic fungi toward insects. However, limited research has explored implications herbicide stress intricate tripartite interaction among insects, bacterial communities, and entomopathogens. In this study, we initially that bacteria confer a leaf beetle, Plagiodera versicolora, with capability to resist fungus Aspergillus nomius infection, sustained even under glyphosate stress. Further analysis revealed significant alteration in abundance composition due treatment. The dominant bacterium, post A. infection following combination treatments, exhibited strong suppressive effects fungal growth. Additionally, markedly inhibited pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas though it P. versicolora's immunity, ultimately enhancing beetle's tolerance nomius. summary, our findings suggest bestow an augmented resilience against dual stressors both entomopathogen glyphosate. These results provide insight into residues interactions bacteria, fungi, holding for pest control ecosystem assessment.

Abstract Glyphosate (GLY), the most widely used herbicide active ingredient (AI) in world, is frequently detected aquatic environments where it can affect non-target organisms. Globally, more than 2000 commercial GLY-based herbicides (GBHs) are to control weeds. Non-target organisms exposed complex pesticide formulations under real environmental conditions, but co-formulants contained GBHs classified as so-called inert and inactive ingredients terms of their biological effects. The main objective this comprehensive review compile results ecotoxicological studies on side-effects GLY, GBHs, formulating agents.

In addition, need revision risk assessment system emphasized. According studies, current pollution by problematic cannot considered environmentally sustainable.

Abstract Background Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum, non-selective systemic herbicide with commonly assumed low potential for accumulation in biota. Nevertheless, glyphosate has been shown to bioaccumulate the tissues of several organisms. To understand bioconcentration dynamics fish, brown trout ( Salmo trutta forma fario ) different age were exposed concentrations glyphosate, formulation Roundup® LB Plus, and major transformation product aminomethylphosphonic acid (AMPA) two, three, or four weeks at temperatures laboratory. Mortality rates determined, tissue samples collected end experiment ascertain AMPA residues by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). Results Brown mortality during exposure was considerably higher 15 °C than 7 °C. Also, significant increase containing muscle, head, backbone, caudal fin increasing observed. Six-month-old fish contained more per kg wet weight after ten-month-old fish. The factors (BCFs) much °C, but both cases decreased concentrations. BCF formulated one parent compound.

Glyphosate is a chemical compound derived from glycine, marketed as broad-spectrum herbicide, and represents one of the most widely used pesticides in world. For long time, it was assumed that glyphosate harmless, either due to its selective enzymatic acting method on plants, because commercial formulations were believed contain only inert chemicals. spread environment, general population daily exposed via different routes, including consumption both plant, non-plant based foods. has been detected high amounts workers’ urine, but likewise bodily fluids, such blood maternal milk, also 60%–80% population, children. Considering massive presence, exposure could be considered health risk for humans. Indeed, 2015, IARC (International Agency Research Cancer) classified derivatives Group 2A, probable human carcinogens. In 2022, nevertheless, EFSA (European Food Safety Authority) stated available data did not provide sufficient evidence prove mutagenic/carcinogenic effects glyphosate. Therefore, European Commission (EC) decided renew approval another 10 years. The purpose this review examine scientific literature, focusing potential risks arising glyphosate, metabolites products (e.g., Roundup ® ), with particular regard mutagenic carcinogenic endocrine disrupter (ED) especially reproductive system.

Kidney liver tissues were analyzed to assess oxidative stress levels. Results indicated that both concentration (25 50 ppm) duration had a significant effect AE gene expression. RT-PCR analysis suggested changes among dalapon-exposed zebrafish might indicate rapid response pesticide-induced stress. Moreover, GST increased at specified concentrations. In contrast, prolonged exceeding 72 h led significantly higher malondialdehyde levels kidney compared control group. These findings enhance our understanding role provide important insights for developing aquaculture breeding programs focused improving fish tolerance.
