Project description:In the past years, the research focus on the effects of microplastics (MP) on aquatic organisms extended from marine systems towards freshwater systems. An important freshwater model organism in the MP field is the cladoceran Daphnia, which plays a central role in lacustrine ecosystems and has been established as a test organism in ecotoxicology. To investigate the effects of MP on Daphnia magna, we performed a chronic exposure experiment with polystyrene MP under strictly standardized conditions. Chronic exposure of D. magna to PS microparticles led to a significant reduction in body length and number of offspring. To shed light on underlying molecular mechanisms induced by microplastic ingestion in D. magna, we assessed the effects of PS-MP at the proteomic level.

Project description:Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) represent a large group of contaminants of concern based on their widespread use, distribution and persistence in the environment, and potential toxicity. Many of the traditional models for estimating toxicity, bioaccumulation, and other relevant toxicological properties are not well suited for PFAS. Consequently, there is a need to generate hazard information for a large number of PFAS in an efficient and cost-effective manner. In the present study, Daphnia magna were exposed to multiple concentrations of 22 different PFAS for 24 h, in a 96-well plate format. Following exposure, whole body RNA was extracted and pooled extracts, each representing five exposed individuals, were subjected to RNA sequencing. Following analytical measurements to verify PFAS exposure concentrations in-well, and quality control on processed cDNA libraries for sequencing, concentration-response modeling was applied to the data sets for 18 of the tested compounds, and the concentration at which a concerted molecular response occurred (transcriptomic point of departure; tPOD) was calculated. The tPODs, based on average measured concentration of PFAS in the exposure wells, generally ranged from 0.03-0.58 µM (9.9-350 µg/L; interquartile range). In most cases, these concentrations were two orders of magnitude lower than similarly calculated tPODs for human cell lines exposed to PFAS. They were also lower than apical effect concentrations reported for seven PFAS for which some crustacean or invertebrate toxicity data were available, although there were a few exceptions. However, despite being lower than most other available hazard benchmarks, the Daphnia magna tPODs were, on average, four orders of magnitude greater than the maximum aqueous concentrations of PFAS measured in Great Lakes tributaries. Overall, this high throughput transcriptomics assay with Daphnia magna holds promise as a component of a tiered hazard evaluation strategy employing new approach methodologies.

Project description:The aim of this study was to measure chronic sublethal effects of the flame retardant Tris(2-butoxyethyl)phosphate (TBEP) on gene expression, associated protein activity and life-history endpoints (reproduction, development) in the freshwater crustacean Daphnia magna. We exposed <24h old D. magna neonates for 21 days to culture medium (control) and to 3 sublethal doses of TBEP: 14.7, 147 and 1470 M-BM-5g/L. Exposure doses were chosen from 48h acute toxicity testing and represent 1/10000, 1/1000 and 1/100 of the LC50, respectively. Each condition (control and the 3 different doses) were performed on 3 independant biological replicates, with 10 individuals each. We used a custom 15000 sequences D. magna microarray to measure transcriptional effect of each of the TBEP doses in comparison to unexposed controls. We exposed <24h old Daphnia magna to culture medium (unexposed controls) and 3 sublethal doses of TBEP (14.7M-BM-5g/L, 147M-BM-5g/L and 1470M-BM-5g/L) for 21 days. We used 3 biological replicates of 10 individuals for each condition.

Project description:Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic metal causing sublethal and chronic effects in crustaceans. Omic technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to better understand modes of toxicity by providing a holistic view of the molecular changes underlying physiological disruption. We sought to use gene expression and metabolomic analyses to reveal the processes leading to chronic Cd toxicity in the indicator species, Daphnia magna, after a 24-h sublethal exposure (18 ug/L, corresponding to 1/10 LC50). We first confirmed that metabolites can be detected and identified in small volumes (~3-6 ul) of D. magna hemolymph using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. We then compared the altered metabolite levels from a mass spectrometry metabolomics study to differentially expressed genes identified by a D. magna 44k oligonucleotide microarray. Metabolomics identified several essential amino acids, nucleotides and fatty acids as decreased in D. magna hemolymph following Cd exposure. Transcriptional changes included decreased levels of digestive enzymes and increased expression of genes related to embryonic development. The integration of metabolomic and transcriptomic profiles, as well as incorporation of results from previous studies, has enabled construction of a conceptual model detailing how sublethal Cd disrupts energy reserves and reproduction resulting in chronic toxicity. Daphnia magna were exposed to 18 micrograms/L Cadmium sulfate for 24 hours. RNA was extracted and hybridized to a custom Daphnia magna microarray to determine genes differentially expressed by the treatment.

Project description:This experiment was conducted to study the short-term (12h) transcriptional responses in Daphnia magna after exposure to the anti-sea lice chemical emamectin benzoate (EMB). The microarray results were further vefiried using qPCR. The gene exression responses were linked to adverse effects after 48h exposure, in order to supply knowledge for environmental hazard assessment of this chemical in non-target crustaceans. Neonatal (<24h) Daphnia magna were exposed to 7.8-2000 pM waterborne emamectin benzoate for 12h. Microarray analysis was performed using pooled whole-organism D. magna (8 individuals) and 4 biological replicates were analyzed for each treatment group.

Project description:Hormesis is a dose response phenomenon characterized by a stimulation of an organismal response at low doses of a chemical and inhibition of the response (toxicity) at a higher dose. In the present study, Daphnia magna were exposed to the energetic compound 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) for 21 days, and the endpoints survival, growth (length and dry weight), and reproduction (number of neonates per survivor) were assesed, identifying hormetic responses at the lower treatment levels. In order to elucidate the mechanisms leading to hormesis, microarray analysis was performed at 0.004 (hormetic), 0.12 (sometimes hormetic), and 1.85 (toxic) mg/L TNT. Functional and transcriptional benchmark dose analyses performed on differentially expressed genes suggested the involvement of lipid metabolism in hormetic responses and subsequently lipidomic analysis was performed on the same treatments. Lipid analysis supported the hypothesis that TNT exposure affected lipid metabolism, and showed that hormetic effects could be related to increases in some polyunsaturated fatty acids and ecosanoids known to be involved in Daphnia growth and reproduction. Chronic toxicity tests was designed to identify the hormetic range of D. magna responses to TNT. Daphnia magna younger than 24 h old and obtained from in-house cultures at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Environmental Laboratory (Vicksburg, MS) were used to initiate the bioassay. The experimental design consisted of one D. magna per test chamber and 10 test chambers per treatment level. In the microarray mass exposure, nominal treatment levels were 0.004, 0.02, 0.12, 0.44, and 1.85 mg/L. Based on the results of the testing in the 50 ml beakers, organisms from three treatments were selected for analysis of gene expression: 0.004, 0.12, and 1.85 mg/L. These treatments were selected to represent a hormetic concentration (0.004 mg/L), a toxic concentration (1.85 mg/L), and an intermediate concentration (0.12 mg/L). A total of 23 arrays used, with 5-6 replicates per each dose (solvent control, 0.004 mg/L, 0.12 mg/L, and 1.85 mg/L).
