Abstract:

In order to investigate the immunotoxicity and mechanism of action of dinotefuran (DIN) on early developmental stages of zebrafish, zebrafish larvae were exposed to different concentrations of DIN (2, 200 and 2 000 μg?L-1) for 5 days to investigate changes in oxidative stress, immune cells, immune-related parameters and immune-related pathways. The results demonstrated that DIN significantly reduced the number of neutrophil, macrophage and thymic T cells (P<0.01), decreased the levels of immune factors (LYS, IgM and C3) (P<0.01), and increased the levels of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) (P<0.01). DIN dose-dependently increased the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in juvenile fish (P<0.01) and inhibited antioxidant enzyme activities (CAT, SOD and GSH-Px) (P<0.01). Concurrently, DIN exposure modulated the transcript levels of pivotal genes within the TLR4/NF-κB, JAK-STAT and Nrf2-Keap1 signalling pathways. The study demonstrated that DIN exposure could induce immunotoxicity in zebrafish larvae and that the TLR4/NF-κB, JAK-STAT and Nrf2-Keap1 pathways play a significant role in this process.

摘要:

为探讨呋虫胺(dinotefuran,DIN)对斑马鱼早期发育阶段的免疫毒性及作用机制,以斑马鱼幼鱼为研究对象,在不同浓度的DIN(2、200和2 000 μg?L-1)中暴露5 d,检测氧化应激、免疫细胞、免疫相关参数及免疫相关通路中基因转录水平4个方面的变化。结果表明,DIN可显著减少中性粒细胞、巨噬细胞、胸腺T细胞的数量(P<0.01),降低溶菌酶(lysozyme,LYS)、IgM和补体C3等免疫因子的含量(P<0.01),提高白细胞介素1β(interleukin 1β,IL-1β)、IL-6、肿瘤坏死因子-α(tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)等炎症因子的含量(P<0.01);可剂量依赖性的增加幼鱼体内的活性氧水平(P<0.01),抑制过氧化氢酶(catalase,CAT)、超氧化物歧化酶(superoxide dismutase,SOD)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(glutathion peroxidase,GSH-Px)等抗氧化酶活性(P<0.01)。同时,DIN暴露改变了TLR4/NF-κB、JAK-STAT和Nrf2-Keap1信号通路中关键基因的转录水平。研究表明,DIN暴露可致斑马鱼幼鱼免疫毒性,且TLR4/NF-κB、JAK-STAT和Nrf2-Keap1通路在其中发挥重要作用。
