Project description:Testing for toxicity in a number of aquatic organisms is necessary for risk assessments of substances. Yet, aquatic larvae of the so-called EPT (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera) taxa are regularly exposed to several environmental contaminants and have been demonstrated to be extremely vulnerable to a variety of environmental pollutants. These results show that existing toxicity testing can result in an underestimating of the risk for EPT taxa and that more toxicity data using EPT taxonomic representatives are needed. Unfortunately, there is a dearth of standardized test techniques and scant published data, particularly for European EPT species. Our study's objective was to create a testing framework for a variety of endpoints in the mayfly Cloeon dipterum. Due to its high prevalence in local waterbodies and its brief lifecycle of a few weeks in the right environmental conditions, C. dipterum was selected as the test organism. To this end, two chronic toxicity tests with semi-static test design and two media renewal per week were performed. Small larvae in the stage L3 based on the wing pad development described by Cianciara (1976) were used in the tests. Four replicates per test concentration and control containing five individuals per replicate were installed. The emergence was determined daily on working days. The tests were conducted at a temperature of 20 °C (± 1 °C) and the illumination was < 1 µE m2s 1 with a light and dark rhythm of 16:8 h. The physico-chemical parameters pH, oxygen concentration, and oxygen saturation were measured using the multiparameter device WTW Multi 1970i at test start, throughout each media renewal, and at test end. Continuous temperature measurements were taken, and weekly lighting assessments were made. Fipronil was administered to C. dipterum larvae in the long-term exposure experiment at nominal concentrations ranging from 0.038 to 0.60 g/L. This test was conducted for 38 days until all larvae had emerged. In the short-term exposure experiment, C. dipterum larvae were exposed to Fipronil in nominal concentrations between 0.038 and 0.30 µg/L for a test duration of seven days. At test end, the larvae were sampled for transcriptome analysis.

Project description:The aim of this mRNA expression profiling experiment was to screen for ecotoxicogenomic fingerprints in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos as aquatic vertebrate non-target model exposed to sub lethal concentrations of the heavily used organophosphate insecticide Fipronil (CAS 2921-88-2). The Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) classified Fipronil after its mode of action (MoA) in the target organism as an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor (Group 1B). The goal is to identify toxicogenomic profiles with predictive character and potential molecular key events (KE) explaining upstream adverse effects in aquatic non-target organisms. This will provide useful information to refine and improve existing adverse outcome pathways (AOP). Furthermore, integrating the obtained profiles for this and other tested chemicals in a collective database will enable us in the future to derive predictions about the ecotoxicological hazard for chemcials with unknown apical effects, based on similarly altered transcriptomic and proteomic profiles. In a modified version of the zebrafish embryo toxicity test (OECD 236), 15 fertilized eggs were exposed to two different sub lethal concentrations of Fipronil for 96 hours under semi-static conditions. Each test comprised of a low exposure (LE, 0.075 mg/L), high exposure (HE, 0.3 mg/L) and negative control (NC) group and was performed in triplicates. At 96 hours post fertilization (hpf), 10 larvae were randomly picked for each sample and pooled for RNA and protein extraction with NucleoSpin RNA/Protein kit (Macherey-Nagel). RNA quality was assessed with a 2100 Bioanalyzer system (Agilent) before coding RNA was purified (PolyA selection with TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit v2) and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 4000 System (Illumina) in 50 bp single read mode, producing roughly 30 million reads per sample. Adapter sequences were removed with trimmomatic and sequences were aligned to the D.rerio reference genome GRCz11 with STAR. Counting of feature mapped reads was performed through featureCounts. Library gene count tables were then merged to a single count matrix as input for differential gene expression analysis with DESeq2.

Project description:In the Paleozoic era, more than 400 Ma, a number of insect groups continued molting after forming functional wings. Today, however, flying insects stop molting after metamorphosis when they become fully winged. The only exception is the mayflies (Paleoptera, Ephemeroptera), which molt in the subimago, a flying stage between the nymph and the adult. However, the identity and homology of the subimago still is underexplored. Debate remains regarding whether this stage represents a modified nymph, an adult, or a pupa like that of butterflies. Another relevant question is why mayflies have the subimago stage despite the risk of molting fragile membranous wings. These questions have intrigued numerous authors, but nonetheless, clear answers have not yet been found. By combining morphological studies, hormonal treatments, and molecular analysis in the mayfly Cloeon dipterum, we found answers to these old questions. We observed that treatment with a juvenile hormone analog in the last nymphal instar stimulated the expression of the Kr-h1 gene and reduced that of E93, which suppress and trigger metamorphosis, respectively. The regulation of metamorphosis thus follows the MEKRE93 pathway, as in neopteran insects. Moreover, the treatment prevented the formation of the subimago. These findings suggest that the subimago must be considered an instar of the adult mayfly. We also observed that the forelegs dramatically grow between the last nymphal instar, the subimago, and the adult. This necessary growth spread over the last two stages could explain, at least in part, the adaptive sense of the subimago.

Project description:The aim of this mRNA expression profiling experiment was to screen for ecotoxicogenomic fingerprints in juvenile daphnids (daphnia magna) as aquatic vertebrate non-target model exposed to sub lethal concentrations of Fipronil. Fipronil is a widely used insecticide applied for crop protection against field pests and Ectoparasites. The Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC) classified Fipronil after its mode of action (MoA) in the target organism as a GABA-gated chloride channel blocker (Group 2). The goal is to identify toxicogenomic profiles with predictive character and identify potential molecular key events (KE) explaining upstream adverse effects. This will provide useful information to refine and improve existing adverse outcome pathways (AOP). Furthermore, integrating the obtained profiles for this and other tested chemicals in a collective database will enable us in the future to derive predictions about the ecotoxicological hazard for chemcials with unknown apical effects, based on similarly altered transcriptomic and proteomic profiles. In a modified version of the acute immobilisation test (OECD 202), 50 juvenile Daphnids were exposed to two sub lethal concentrations of Fipronil for 48 hours under static conditions. Each test comprised of a low exposure (LE), high exposure (HE) and a negative control (NC) group and was performed in triplicates. At 48 hours after introducing the daphnids into the test solutions, RNA and protein was extracted from living daphnids with NucleoSpin RNA/Protein kit (Macherey-Nagel). RNA quality was assessed with a 2100 Bioanalyzer system (Agilent) before messenger RNA was purified (PolyA selection with TruSeq RNA Library Prep Kit v2) and sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 4000 System (Illumina) in 50 bp single read mode, producing roughly 30 million reads per sample. Adapter sequences were removed with trimmomatic and sequences were aligned to the D. magna reference genome (daphmag2.4) using STAR. Counting of feature mapped reads was performed through featureCounts. Library gene count tables were then merged to a single count matrix as input for count normalization and differential gene expression analysis with DESeq2.
