    • Increased production of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) has raised extensive concerns about the potential toxic effects on marine organisms. Extensive evidences documented the impact of ocean acidification (OA) on the physiology and fitness of bivalves. In the present study, we investigated the biochemical responses of the mussel Mytilus coruscus exposed to both nano-ZnO and low pH relevant for ocean acidification conditions for 14 d followed by a 7-d recovery period. Most biochemical indexes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) measured in gills and hemocytes were increased when the mussels were subject to low pH or high concentration of nano-ZnO, suggesting oxidative stress responses. No significant interactions between the two stressors were observed for most measured parameters. After a 1 week recovery period, low pH and nano-ZnO had less marked impact for SOD, GPx, ACP and ALP in hemocytes as compared to the end of the 14 d exposure. However, no recovery was observed in gills. Overall, our results suggest that both low pH and nano-ZnO induce an anti-oxidative response in Mytilus coruscus with gills being more sensitive than hemocytes. © 2017

  • Effects of copper on hemocyte parameters in the estuarine oyster Crassostrea rivularis under low pH conditions
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Aquatic Toxicology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0166-445X. ; 203, s. 61-68
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • With the development of industry and agriculture, the metal pollutants (e.g., Cu) are inevitably released into the aquatic environment. In addition, ocean acidification (OA) as a major environmental stress is affecting marine organisms. In this study, we investigated the hemocyte responses of the estuarine oyster Crassostrea rivularis exposed to six combinations of two pH levels (8.1 and 7.7) and three Cu concentrations (0, 10 and 50 mu g/l) using flow cytometry in vitro and in vivo. In both experiments, Cu and low pH jointly affected the hemocyte parameters of oyster. High Cu exposure resulted in decreased total hemocyte count (THC), esterase activity (EA) and lysosomal content (LC) and increased hemocyte mortality (HM), phagocytosis activity (PA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, especially under low pH conditions. The immune suppression of metal-exposure was more significant than low pH exposure with a 28-d experimental period in oysters. A slight recovery of the immune parameters was observed in THC, HM, PA, ROS and LC. During the depuration period, the modulatory effects of pH were still obvious. In addition, carry-over effects of high Cu and low pH were still observed. Overall, our results showed that copper and low pH weaken immune functions of hemocyte in oysters, with synergistic effects. This work provides new evidence of sublethal negative effects of metals on marine animals under global change scenarios, and copper likely leads to reduced fitness of oysters under low pH conditions.

  • Oxidative stress induced by titanium dioxide nanoparticles increases under seawater acidification in the thick shell mussel Mytilus coruscus
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Marine Environmental Research. - 0141-1136. ; 137, s. 49-59
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Biochemical responses of the mussel Mytflrn coruscus exposed to different concentrations of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nano-Ti0(2)) (0, 2.5, 10mgL(-1)) and two pH levels (pH 8.1 and pH 7.3) for 14 days. Mussel responses were also investigated after a 7 days recovery period (pH 8.1 and no nanoparticle). Exposure to nanoTi0(2) led changes in antioxidant indexes (superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione (GSH)), biotransformation enzyme activity (GST) and malondialdehyde level (MDA) in gills and digestive glands. An increase in MDA level and a decrease in SOD and GSH activities were observed in gill of mussels exposed to 10 mg L-n1 nano-TiO2. This effect was more severe in mussels kept at pH 7.3 as compared to pH 8.1. A different response was observed in the digestive gland as SOD, CAT and GSH levels increased in mussels exposed to nano-TiO2. These contrasting results in digestive glands and gills were only evident at high concentration of nano-TiO2 and low pH. A 7 days recovery period was not sufficient to fully restore SOD, GPx, GST, GSH and MDA levels to levels before exposure to nano-TiO2 and low pH. Overall, our results confirmed that seawater acidification modulates effects of nanoparticles in mussels, and that gills are more sensitive to these stressors as compared with digestive glands.

  • Impacts of pH on the Fitness and Immune System of Pacific White Shrimp
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Frontiers in Marine Science. - : Frontiers Media SA. - 2296-7745. ; 8
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The atmospheric partial pressure of CO2 (pCO(2)) has been increasing dramatically since the beginning of the industrial revolution and about 30% of the CO2 produced by anthropogenic activities was absorbed by the ocean. This led to a perturbation of the seawater carbonate chemistry resulting in a decrease of the average surface ocean pH by 0.1 and termed ocean acidification (OA). Projections suggest that pCO(2) may reach 900 mu atm by the end of the twenty-first century lowering the average pH of the surface ocean by 0.4 units. The negative impacts of OA on many species of marine invertebrates such as mollusks, echinoderms, and crustaceans are well documented. However, less attention has been paid to the impacts of low pH on fitness and immune system in crustaceans. Here, we exposed Pacific white shrimps to 3 different pHs (nominal pH 8.0, 7.9, and 7.6) over a 100-days experiment. We found that, even though there were no significant effects on fitness parameters (survival, growth and allometries between length and weight), some immune markers were modified under low pH. A significant decrease in total hemocyte count and phenoloxidase activity was observed in shrimps exposed to pH 7.6 as compared to pH 8.0; and phagocytosis rate significantly decreased with decreasing pH. A significant increase in superoxide production was also observed at pH 7.6 as compared to pH 8.0. All these results suggest that a 100-days exposure to pH 7.6 did not have a direct effect on fitness but lead to a modulation of the immune response.

  • Ocean acidification increases inorganic carbon over organic carbon in shrimp's exoskeleton
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Marine Pollution Bulletin. - 0025-326X. ; 192
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Ocean acidification (OA) may either increase or have a neutral effect on the calcification in shrimp's exoskeleton. However, investigations on changes in the carbon composition of shrimp's exoskeletons under OA are lacking. We exposed juvenile Pacific white shrimps to target pHs of 8.0, 7.9, and 7.6 for 100 days to evaluate changes in carapace thickness, total carbon (TC), particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate inorganic carbon (PIC), calcium, and magnesium concentrations in their exoskeletons. The PIC: POC ratio of shrimp in pH 7.6 treatment was significantly higher by 175 % as compared to pH 8.0 treatment. Thickness and Ca% in pH 7.6 treatment were significantly higher as compared to pH 8.0 treatment (90 % and 65 %, respectively). This is the first direct evidence of an increased PIC: POC ratio in shrimp exoskeletons under OA. In the future, such changes in carbon composition may affect the shrimp population, ecosystem functions, and regional carbon cycle.

  • Short-Term Exposure of Mytilus coruscus to Decreased pH and Salinity Change Impacts Immune Parameters of Their Haemocytes
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: Frontiers in Physiology. - : Frontiers Media SA. - 1664-042X. ; 9, s. 1-11
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • With the release of large amounts of CO2, ocean acidification is intensifying and affecting aquatic organisms. In addition, salinity also plays an important role for marine organisms and fluctuates greatly in estuarine and coastal ecosystem, where ocean acidification frequently occurs. In present study, flow cytometry was used to investigate immune parameters of haemocytes in the thick shellmusselMytilus coruscus exposed to different salinities (15, 25, and 35 parts per thousand) and two pH levels (7.3 and 8.1). A 7-day in vivo and a 5-h in vitro experiments were performed. In both experiments, low pH had significant effects on all tested immune parameters. When exposed to decreased pH, total haemocyte count (THC), phagocytosis (Pha), esterase (Est), and lysosomal content (Lyso) were significantly decreased, whereas haemocyte mortality (HM) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were increased. High salinity had no significant effects on the immune parameters of haemocytes as compared with low salinity. However, an interaction between pH and salinity was observed in both experiments for most tested haemocyte parameters. This study showed that high salinity, low salinity and low pH have negative and interactive effects on haemocytes of mussels. As a consequence, it can be expected that the combined effect of low pH and changed salinity will have more severe effects on mussel health than predicted by single exposure.
