A trans-acting sRNA SaaS targeting hilD, cheA and csgA to inhibit biofilm formation of S. Enteritidis.

INTRODUCTION: Salmonella Enteritidis has brought great harm to public health, animal production and food safety worldwide. The biofilm formed by Salmonella Enteritidis plays a critical role in microbial cross-contamination. Small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) have been demonstrated to be responsible for regulating the formation of biofilm. The sRNA SaaS has been identified previously, that promotes pathogenicity by regulating invasion and virulence factors. However, whether the SaaS is implicated in regulating biofilm formation in abiotic surfaces remains unclear. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to clarify the effect of SaaS in Salmonella Enteritidis and explore the modulatory mechanism on the biofilm formation. METHODS: Motility characteristics and total biomass of biofilm of test strains were investigated by the phenotypes in three soft agar plates and crystal violet staining in polystyrene microplates. Studies of microscopic structure and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of biofilm on solid surfaces were carried out using confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM) and Raman spectra. Transcriptomics and proteomics were applied to analyze the changes of gene expression and EPS component. The RNA-protein pull-down and promoter-reporter ß-galactosidase activity assays were employed to analyze RNA binding proteins and identify target mRNAs, respectively. RESULTS: SaaS inhibits biofilm formation by repressing the adhesion potential and the secretion of EPS components. Integration of transcriptomics and proteomics analysis revealed that SaaS strengthened the expression of the flagellar synthesis system and downregulated the expression of curli amyloid fibers. Furthermore, RNA-protein pull-down interactome datasets indicated that SaaS binds to Hfq (an RNA molecular chaperone protein, known as a host factor for phage Qbeta RNA replication) uniquely among 193 candidate proteins, and promoter-reporter ß-galactosidase activity assay confirmed target mRNAs including hilD, cheA, and csgA. CONCLUSION: SaaS inhibits the properties of bacterial mobility, perturbs the secretion of EPS, and contributes to the inhibition of biofilm formation by interacting with target mRNA (hilD, cheA, and csgA) through the Hfq-mediated pathway.

Research progress on the role and mechanism of Sirtuin family in doxorubicin cardiotoxicity.

BACKGROUND: Doxorubicin (DOX) is a widely utilized anthracycline chemotherapy drug in cancer treatment, yet its efficacy is hindered by both short-term and long-term cardiotoxicity. Although oxidative stress, inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction are established factors in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, the precise molecular pathways remain elusive. Further exploration of the pathogenesis and identification of novel molecular targets are imperative. Recent studies have implicated the Sirtuins family in various physiological and pathological processes, suggesting their potential in ameliorating DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Moreover, research on Sirtuins has discovered small-molecule compounds or medicinal plants with regulatory effects, representing a notable advancement in preventing and treating DOX-induced cardiac injury. PURPOSE: In this review, we delve into the pathogenesis of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and explore the therapeutic effects of Sirtuins in mitigating this condition, along with the associated molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we delineate the roles and mechanisms of small-molecule regulators of Sirtuins in the prevention and treatment of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. STUDY-DESIGN/METHODS: Data for this review were sourced from various scientific databases (such as Web of Science, PubMed and Science Direct) up to March 2024. Search terms included "Sirtuins," "DOX-induced cardiotoxicity," "DOX," "Sirtuins regulators," "histone deacetylation," among others, as well as several combinations thereof. RESULTS: Members of the Sirtuins family regulate both the onset and progression of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through anti-inflammatory, antioxidative stress and anti-apoptotic mechanisms, as well as by maintaining mitochondrial stability. Moreover, natural plant-derived active compounds such as Resveratrol (RES), curcumin, berberine, along with synthetic small-molecule compounds like EX527, modulate the expression and activity of Sirtuins. CONCLUSION: The therapeutic role of the Sirtuins family in mitigating DOX-induced cardiotoxicity represents a potential molecular target. However, further research is urgently needed to elucidate the relevant molecular mechanisms and to assess the safety and biological activity of Sirtuins regulators. This review offers an in-depth understanding of the therapeutic role of the Sirtuins family in mitigating DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, providing a preliminary basis for the clinical application of Sirtuins regulators in this condition.

Study on the structure-activity relationship of rice immunopeptides based on molecular docking.

Research on food-derived immunoregulatory peptides has attracted increasing attention of scientists worldwide. However, the structure-activity relationship of rice immunopeptides was not clearly. Herein, 114 rice immunopeptides were obtained by simulating the enzymatic hydrolysis of rice proteins and were further analyzed by NetMHCIipan-4.0. Subsequently, the molecular docking was used to simulate the binding of immunoreactive peptides to major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) molecules. Results show that S, R, D, E, and T amino acid could easily form hydrogen bonds with MHC-II molecules, thus enhancing innate and adaptive immunity. Finally, glucose-modified rice immunopeptides were to investigate the binding of the peptides with MHC-II molecules after glycosylation modification; this provided a theoretical basis for the targeted modification of the generated immunopeptides. All in all, the present study provides a theoretical foundation to further utilize rice processing byproducts and other food products to enhance immunity.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Immunoregulatory Activity of Rice Seed-Derived Peptide PEP1 on Dendritic Cells.

Some food-derived bioactive peptides exhibit prominent immunoregulatory activity. We previously demonstrated that the rice-derived PEP1 peptide, GIAASPFLQSAAFQLR, has strong immunological activity. However, the mechanism of this action is still unclear. In the present study, full-length transcripts of mouse dendritic cells (DC2.4) treated with PEP1 were sequenced using the PacBio sequencing platform, and the transcriptomes were compared via RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). The characteristic markers of mature DCs, the cluster of differentiation CD86, and the major histocompatibility complex (MHC-II), were significantly upregulated after the PEP1 treatment. The molecular docking suggested that hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions played important roles in the binding between PEP1, MHC-II, and the T-cell receptor (TCR). In addition, the PEP1 peptide increased the release of anti-inflammatory factors (interleukin-4 and interleukin-10) and decreased the release of pro-inflammatory factors (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α). Furthermore, the RNA-seq results showed the expression of genes involved in several signaling pathways, such as the NF-κB, MAPK, JAK-STAT, and TGF-ß pathways, were regulated by the PEP1 treatment, and the changes confirmed the immunomodulatory effect of PEP1 on DC2.4 cells. This findings revealed that the PEP1 peptide, derived from the byproduct of rice processing, is a potential natural immunoregulatory alternative for the treatment of inflammation.

Combined effect of microplastic and triphenyltin: Insights from the gut-brain axis.

Microplastics (MPs), an emerging group of pollutants, not only have direct toxic effects on aquatic organisms but also cause combined toxicity by absorbing other pollutants. Triphenyltin (TPT), one of the most widely used organotin compounds, has adverse effects on aquatic organisms. However, little is known about the combined toxicity of MPs and TPT to aquatic organisms. To investigate the individual and combined toxicity of MPs and TPT, we selected the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) for a 42-day exposure experiment. Based on the environmental concentrations in a heavily polluted area, the experimental concentrations of MPs and TPT were set at 0.5 mg L-1 and 1 µg L-1, respectively. The effects of MPs combined with TPT on the carp gut-brain axis were evaluated by detecting gut physiology and biochemical parameters, gut microbial 16S rRNA, and brain transcriptome sequencing. Our results suggest that a single TPT caused lipid metabolism disorder and a single MP induced immunosuppression in carp. When MPs were combined with TPT, the involvement of TPT amplified the immunotoxic effect induced by MPs. In this study, we also explored the gut-brain axis relationship of carp immunosuppression, providing new insights for assessing the combined toxicity of MPs and TPT. At the same time, our study provides a theoretical basis for evaluating the coexistence risk of MPs and TPT in the aquatic environment.

Distinct dynein complexes defined by DYNLRB1 and DYNLRB2 regulate mitotic and male meiotic spindle bipolarity.

Spindle formation in male meiosis relies on the canonical centrosome system, which is distinct from acentrosomal oocyte meiosis, but its specific regulatory mechanisms remain unknown. Herein, we report that DYNLRB2 (Dynein light chain roadblock-type-2) is a male meiosis-upregulated dynein light chain that is indispensable for spindle formation in meiosis I. In Dynlrb2 KO mouse testes, meiosis progression is arrested in metaphase I due to the formation of multipolar spindles with fragmented pericentriolar material (PCM). DYNLRB2 inhibits PCM fragmentation through two distinct pathways; suppressing premature centriole disengagement and targeting NuMA (nuclear mitotic apparatus) to spindle poles. The ubiquitously expressed mitotic counterpart, DYNLRB1, has similar roles in mitotic cells and maintains spindle bipolarity by targeting NuMA and suppressing centriole overduplication. Our work demonstrates that two distinct dynein complexes containing DYNLRB1 or DYNLRB2 are separately used in mitotic and meiotic spindle formations, respectively, and that both have NuMA as a common target.

Systematic toxicological analysis of the effect of salinity on the physiological stress induced by triphenyltin in Nile tilapia.

Triphenyltin (TPT), a synthetic chemical, is prevalent in complex salinity areas, including estuaries and coastal regions. However, current studies on the toxicological effects of TPT relevant to the environment at different salinities are limited. In the study, biochemical, histological, and transcriptional analyses of TPT and salinity alone, or in combination, was performed on the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) liver. Nile tilapia exhibited weakened antioxidant defenses and liver damage. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that TPT exposure primarily affected lipid metabolism and immunity; salinity exposure alone particularly affected carbohydrate metabolism; combined exposure primarily immune- and metabolic-related signaling pathways. In addition, the single exposure to TPT or salinity induced inflammatory responses by up-regulating the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, whereas combined exposure suppressed inflammation by down-regulating pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. These findings are beneficial to understand the negative effects of TPT exposure in Nile tilapia in the broad salinity zones and its potential defense mechanisms.

Photoswitchable semiconducting polymer dots for pattern encoding and superresolution imaging.

Two photoswitchable semiconducting polymers were synthesized by covalently incorporating photochromic dithienylethene (DTE) into the main chains. Small size polymer dots (Pdots) were prepared and showed dynamic photoswitching upon alternate light irradiation. By virtue of the tunable photoswitching properties, effective pattern encoding and superresolution imaging with a resolution of up to about 30 nm were achieved.

Assessing the ecotoxicity of combined exposure to triphenyltin and norfloxacin at environmental levels: A case study of immunotoxicity and metabolic regulation in carp (Cyprinus carpio).

This paper evaluates the coexistence risks of triphenyltin (TPT) and norfloxacin (NOR) to aquatic organisms in the aquatic environment. Carp (Cyprinus carpio) was used as the test organism, the control and exposure groups (1 µg/L TPT), 1 mg/L (NOR), 1 µg/LTPT+1 mg/LNOR (TPT_NOR)) were set up according to the environmental concentration in the severely polluted area for 42 days. The single/combined toxic effects of TPT and NOR on aquatic organisms were evaluated by analyzing carp brain transcriptome sequencing, gut microbiota structure, and detection of biochemical indicators and RT-qPCR. Our results show that TPT and NOR induce lipid metabolism disorder in carp brain tissue, affecting the metabolism of cytochrome P450 to exogenous substances, and NOR also induces immunosuppression in carp. Long-term exposure to TPT combined with NOR amplifies the monotoxicity of TPT or NOR on lipid metabolism and immunosuppression in carp, induces immune dysfunction in brain tissue and changes in gut microbiota structure. However, TPT_NOR has no obvious neurotoxicity on the brain, but it can inhibit the level of intestinal MDA. This highlights that co-exposure of TPT and NOR amplifies metabolic disorders and immunosuppressive functions in carp.

NMR technique revealed the metabolic interference mechanism of the combined exposure to cadmium and tributyltin in grass carp larvae.

Widespread human activity has resulted in the presence of different pollutants in the aquatic environment that does not exist in isolation. The study of the effects of contamination of aquatic organisms is of great significance. To assess the individual and combined toxicity of cadmium (Cd) and tributyltin (TBT) to aquatic organisms, juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) were exposed to Cd (2.97 mg/L), TBT (7.5 µg/L), and their mixture MIX. The biological response was evaluated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis of plasma metabolites. Plasma samples at 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 48 days post-exposure were analyzed using detection by NMR technique. The typical correlation analysis (CCA) analysis revealed that TBT had the greatest effect on plasma metabolism, followed by MIX and Cd. The interference pathway to grass carp was similar to that of TBT and MIX. Both Cd and TBT exposure alone or in combination can lead to metabolic abnormalities in TCA cycle-related pathways and interfere with energy metabolism. These results provide more detailed information for the metabolic study of pollutants and data for assessing the health risks of Cd, TBT, and MIX at the metabolic level.

Effects of ocean acidification and tralopyril on bivalve biomineralization and carbon cycling: A study of the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas).

The combined effects of emerging pollutants and ocean acidification (OA) on marine organisms and marine ecosystems have attracted increasing attention. However, the combined effects of tralopyril and OA on marine organisms and marine ecosystems remain unclear. In this study, Crassostrea gigas (C. gigas) were exposed to tralopyril (1 µg/L) and/or OA (PH = 7.7) for 21 days and a 14-day recovery acclimation. To investigate the stress response and potential molecular mechanisms of C. gigas to OA and tralopyril exposure alone or in combination, as well as the effects of OA and/or tralopyril on bivalve biomineralization and marine carbon cycling. The results showed that the combined toxicity was between that of acidification and tralopyril alone. Single or combined exposure activated the general stress defense responses of C. gigas mantle, affected energy metabolism and biomineralization of the organism and the carbon cycle of the marine ecosystem. Moreover, acidification-induced and tralopyril-induced toxicity showed potential recoverability at molecular and biochemical levels. This study provides a new perspective on the molecular mechanisms of tralopyril toxicity to bivalve shellfish and reveals the potential role of tralopyril and OA on marine carbon cycling.

Physiological responses in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) induced by combined stress of environmental salinity and triphenyltin.

Triphenyltin (TPT) has attracted considerable attention owing to its vitality, bioaccumulation, and lurking damage. TPT widely exists in complex salinity areas such as estuaries and coastal regions. However, there are few studies on the toxicological behavior of TPT under different salinity. In the study, juvenile Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were utilized as model animals to investigate the effects of environmental relevant TPT exposure on the osmoregulation and energy metabolism in gill under different salinity. The results showed that salinity and TPT single or combined exposure affected the morphology of the gill tissue. After TPT exposure, Na+-K+-ATPase (NKA) activity significantly decreased at 0 ppt, while NKA and Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase (CMA) activities significantly increased at 15 ppt. In addition, significantly higher succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities were found in the control fish compared to the TPT-exposed ones at 15 ppt. Quantitative real-time PCR results showed that TPT exposure affected the expression of osmoregulation and energy metabolism-related genes under different salinity. Overall, TPT exposure interfered with osmoregulation and energy metabolism under different salinity. The study will provide reference data for assessing the toxicity of organotin compounds in complex-salinity areas.

A new perspective on endocrine disrupting effects of triphenyltin on marine medaka: From brain transcriptome, gut content metabolome and behavior.

Triphenyltin (TPT) is an endocrine contaminant that is often detected in the environment. However, the mechanism of the effects of TPT on biological systems is not fully understood. Here we exposed marine medaka (Oryzias melastigma) to TPT for 21 days. Brain transcriptome, intestinal content metabolism group, and behavior analysis were carried out. Through the comprehensive analysis of multiomics for the in-depth understanding of the ways related to health improvement, we determined that the glycine-serine-threonine metabolic axis was most perturbed by TPT. Through behavioral analysis, it was found that there was behavioral hyperactivity in the exposed group; behavioral hyperactivity may be caused by the interference of TPT with the neuroendocrine system. In order to gain a full understanding of the impacts of TPT on human health, transcriptomic screening of differential genes and an impartial attitude based on bioinformatics were used. Gene-disease interaction analysis using the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) revealed the possible effects of TPT on human health. Finally, based on these findings, the relevant adverse outcome pathway (AOP), which is the "epigenetic modification of PPARG leading to adipogenesis," was identified from AOP Wiki. Further research is required to validate the potential AOP of TPT.

Relationship between Water Temperature and Floating Time of Aquatic Cadavers.

OBJECTIVES: To study the relationship between water temperature and floating time of aquatic cadavers, providing a reference for more precise positioning and searching for floating corpses. METHODS: The floating model of guinea pig after drowning at 17-30 ℃ was established, and the floating times of carcasses were recorded. The collected data of 32 floating corpse cases in the Pearl River were sorted out and analyzed according to the floating time of corpses corresponding to each degree of water temperature. The relationship models between water temperature and the floating time of guinea pig carcass, and between that and the floating time of real cases were established. RESULTS: The floating time of the cadaver was negatively correlated with water temperature. The power function fitting equation of the relationship between floating time and water temperature of guinea pig carcass was y=1×1015x-10.530(R2=0.871, P<0.01), and the power function fitting equation of the relationship between corpse floating time and water temperature was y=3×106x-3.467(R2=0.802, P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: It is found that average floating cadaver time has a power function with water temperature, which provides a reference for locating floating cadavers and establishing search models.

Exposure to enrofloxacin and depuration: Endocrine disrupting effect in juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella).

This study aimed to determine the effects of Enrofloxacin (ENR) exposure and depuration on the disruption of thyroid function and growth of juvenile grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) as well as to assess the risk of ENR exposure to human health. Juvenile grass carp were treated with ENR solutions at different concentration gradients for 21 days and then depurated for 14 days. The results indicated ENR accumulation in the juvenile grass carp muscles, which persisted after depuration. In addition, exposure to ENR could alter growth by regulating the expression of genes associated with growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor (GH)/IGF) axis and the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis. During ENR exposure, no significant changes in growth hormone levels were observed; however, a significant increase in the growth hormone level was noted. GH/IGF axis-related genes were upregulated after ENR exposure, and their expression levels remained high after depuration. Notably, a significant increase in the serum triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) levels coincided with the upregulation of HPT axis-related genes in both exposure and depuration treatments, and their expression levels remained high after depuration. Therefore, juvenile grass carp exposure to ENR induces physiological stress through HPT and GH/IGF axes that cannot be recovered after depuration. ENR accumulates in the muscles of juvenile grass carp and may pose a threat to human health. Therefore, exposure of juvenile grass carp to ENR results in impaired thyroid function and impaired growth. In addition, consumption of ENR-exposed fish poses human health risks.

In Vitro Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Three Peptides Derived from the Byproduct of Rice Processing.

Inflammation is a contributing factor to the initiation and progression of many diseases, and some food-derived biofunctional peptides show high anti-inflammatory activity. In our previous study, we demonstrated that peptides derived from trypsin hydrolysis of rice protein show good immunological activity. In the present study, proteins of broken rice were extracted and identified by macroporous resin fractionation and liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Subsequently, a bioinformatics prediction and in silico simulation approach was used to screen for peptides showing anti-inflammatory activity, including inhibition of the production of nitric oxide and proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1ß, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α) by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW264.7 mice macrophages. Three peptides (DNIQGITKPAIR, IAFKTNPNSMVSHIAGK, and IGVAMDYSASSKR) that demonstrated the highest binding affinity were synthesized, and their in vitro anti-inflammatory activity was investigated. This is the first study that integrates LC-MS/MS identification and bioinformatics prediction for reporting the anti-inflammatory activity of anti-inflammatory peptides derived from broken rice protein. The study findings revealed that the peptides derived from the byproduct of rice milling could be potentially used as natural anti-inflammatory alternativities.

Chronic exposure to tralopyril induced abnormal growth and calcium regulation of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus).

Tralopyril is an emerging marine antifouling agent with limited data on its effects on fish growth and calcium regulation. To determine the changes induced by long-term exposure to tralopyril, multi-levels (such as molecular, biochemical, and individual levels) responses were measured in turbot at different concentrations (1 µg/L, 20 µg/L). The results showed that 1 µg/L mainly affected the immune response, while 20 µg/L affected the synthesis and metabolism of steroids and fat. However, different concentrations of tralopyril affected the synthesis, secretion and action of parathyroid hormone and growth hormone. The expression of GH/IGF axis gene and the level of growth hormone increased significantly, leading to abnormal growth. The energy tradeoff between immunity and growth at 1 µg/L tralopyril pressure may inhibit growth. The change of Ca2+ level was accompanied by the disturbance of PTH-related gene expression. The results of molecular docking showed that the disturbance of Ca2+ regulation might be attributed to the inhibition of vitamin D receptor by tralopyril, which affected the vitamin D signaling pathway. This study provides scientific data for the in-depth understanding and risk assessment of the toxicological effects of tralopyril and reveals the potential threat of tralopyril to environmental health.

Effects of long-term exposure of norfloxacin on the HPG and HPT axes in juvenile common carp.

Currently, there is a relatively lack of relevant research on the interference effect of quinolone antibiotics on the endocrine of aquatic animals. In this study, the toxicity of norfloxacin (NOR) on the endocrine system of juvenile common carp (Cyprinus carpio) was evaluated, as well as the hematocyte parameters. Specifically, two important endocrine axes were assessed: the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid (HPT) axis and hypothalamus-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Norfloxacin was used as a representative of quinolone antibiotics. According to the concentration of water pollution areas and considering the bad situation that may be caused by wastewater discharge, a control, 100 ng/L NOR, and 1 mg/L NOR treatment groups were set up. The juvenile carp, as the test animal, was subjected to an exposure experiment for 42 days. Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) and related genes in HPT axis and sex hormones (11-ketotestosterone [11-KT] and progesterone [PROG]) and related genes in HPG axis and blood count are tested. It was found that the T4 iodine level and conversion process were enhanced after NOR treatment, which in turn led to the increase of T3 content and biological activity in the blood. One hundred nanograms per liter NOR can inhibit the level of sex hormones and inhibit the expression of HPG axis-related genes. In the 1 mg/L NOR treatment group, long-term exposure over a certain concentration range may lead to the development of adaptive mechanisms, making the changes in hormones and related genes insignificant. In conclusion, this study provides reference data for the endocrine interference of quinolone antibiotics on aquatic organisms, and has ecological significance for assessing the health of fish populations of quinolone antibiotics. However, the specific sites and mechanisms of action related to the effects of NOR on the endocrine system remain unclear and require further study.

Effects of short-term exposure to tralopyril on physiological indexes and endocrine function in turbot (Scophthalmus maximus).

Tralopyril is an emerging marine antifouling agent with potential toxic effects on non-target aquatic organisms. To evaluate the toxicity of tralopyril, to turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), we assessed biomarkers, including oxidative stress, neurotoxicity, and osmotic homeostasis regulation enzymes, after a 7-day exposure to tralopyril (5 µg/L, 15 µg/L, 30 µg/L). Superoxide dismutase activity was significantly decreased at 30 µg/L, and Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase activity in the gills was significantly increased at 15 µg/L and 30 µg/L. No statistically significant differences in the responses of acetylcholinesterase and nitric oxide were detected. In addition, 15 µg/L and 30 µg/L tralopyril induced hyperthyroidism, reflected by significantly increased of T3 levels. The expression levels of hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid axis-related genes were also upregulated. The molecular docking results showed that the thyroid system disruption was not caused by competitive binding to the receptor. In addition, the integrated biomarker response index showed that 15 µg/L tralopyril had the greatest effect on turbot. In general, tralopyril caused oxidative damage, affected energy metabolism, and interfered with the endocrine system. These findings could provide reference data for assessing the ecological risk of tralopyril in marine environments.
