Project description:Microplastics (MPs) as widespread contamination pose high risk for aquatic organisms.Intestinal microbiotahas have high interaction with immune system of host body. In this study, intestinal microbiota of zebrafish after Polystyrene (PS-MPs) exposure were characterized by 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing. We found that 100nm and 200μm PS-MPs exposure significantly increased diversity of intestinal microbiota and all the three sizes of PS-MPs increased abundance of pathogenic bacteria.

Project description:The pollution of the environment with microplastics has been recognized as an emerging threat worldwide. Due to an exponential increase in production of plastic over the last eight decades and its longevity in the environment, accumulating amounts of microplastic are polluting rivers, lakes and the ocean. Their entry pathways are diverse and still only incompletely understood. Since microplastics are usually defined smaller than 5 mm, it can be ingested by a wide range of aquatic organisms including teleost fish. There are different approaches to study the detrimental effects of pollutants on aquatic organisms. On the one hand, generic baseline parameters such as growth and mortality are regularly considered, often accompanied by established stress parameters such as cortisol, heat shock proteins or lipid oxidation. The conflicting findings to date suggest that these parameters might not be sensitive enough to indicate the physiological effects of environmentally relevant microplastic concentrations. For this reason, more sophisticated biological approaches could provide new insights into whether and how microplastics harm fish. To date, proteomic approaches have been used only sporadically when investigating the effects of microplastic exposure on aquatic organisms. So far, this approach has not been used to address potential microplastic impacts in fish. In the present study, a proteomic approach was trialed alongside established methods in an investigation of fish experiencing long-term exposure to environmentally relevant concentrations of microplastics. Two groups of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss were exposed to microplastic concentrations and sizes currently encountered in wild fish and an increased concentration, expected to occur in the near future. These groups where compared to a control group maintained in MP free conditions. Five fish of each treatment were sampled at three time points (week 1, week 4, week 17). The experiments were performed in triplicates, resulting in 45 samples used in the proteomic analysis.

Project description:Plastics are one of the most preoccupying emerging pollutants. Macroplastics released in the environment degrade into microplastics and nanoplastics. Because of their small size, these micro and nano plastic particles can enter the food chain and, in addition to their ecotoxicological effects, contaminate humans with still unknown biological effects. Plastics being particulate pollutants, they are handled in the human body by scavenger cells such as macrophages, which are important players in the immune system. In order to get a better appraisal of the effects of plastic particles on macrophages, we have studied the effects of unmodified polystyrene particles of 0.1, 1 and 10 micrometers of diameter, by a combination of proteomics and targeted approaches. Proteomics showed important adaptive changes of the proteome in response to exposure to plastics, with more than one third of the detected proteins showing a significance change in their abundance in response to cell exposure to at least one plastic beads size. These changes affected for example mitochondrial, lysosomal or cytoskeletal proteins. Although an increase in the mitochondrial transmembrane potential was detected in response to 10 micrometer beads, no alteration in cell viability was observed. Similarly, no lysosomal dysfunction and no alteration in the phagocytic capability of the cells was observed in response to exposure to plastic. When the inflammatory response was examined, no increase in the secretion of tumor necrosis factor or interleukin 6 was observed. Oppositely, the secretion of these cytokines in response to lipopolysaccharide was observed after exposure to plastic, which suggested a decreased ability of macrophages to respond to bacterial infection. In conclusion, these results provide a better understanding of the responses of macrophages to exposure to polystyrene particles of different sizes.

Project description:Recent studies have identified the pervasive presence of nano- and microplastics (NMP) in atmospheric air, leading to inevitable human exposure. Human skin, with an extensive surface area of 1.5-2 m², is constantly exposed to airborne NMP, yet the dermal implications of such exposure remain elusive. Our investigation employed fragmented polystyrene (fPS), a plastic commonly found in the air, to evaluate dermal penetration using various skin models. We utilized pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (py-GC/MS) to quantify fPS that had penetrated the skin model. Furthermore, we examined the biological alterations in skin keratinocytes consequent to fPS exposure and analyzed the regulation of inflammatory response markers. Our findings reveal deleterious effects on skin keratinocytes, underlining the potential risks posed by short-term fPS exposure. This multifaceted skin model study offers new perspectives on the toxicological impacts of NMP.

Project description:Microplastics (MPs) as widespread contamination pose high risk for aquatic organisms. However, current understanding of MP toxicities are based on cell population-averaged measurements. Here we used single-cell RNA sequencing to provide the transcriptome heterogeneity of 12000 intestinal cells obtained from zebrafishes exposed to 100nm, 5μm and 200μm polystyrene MPs (PS-MPs) for 21 days. Eight intestinal cell populations were identified. We found that all the three sizes of PS-MPs induced dysfunction of intestinal immune cells (including phagosome and regulation of immune system process).

Project description:Microplastics (MPs) have become a serious global environmental threat that causes damage to mammalian organs. In this work, we investigated the potential molecular mechanism underlying the development of liver fibrosis induced by long-term exposure to three different sized PS-MPs (80 nm, 0.5 µm and 5 µm) in mice. Liver fibrosis levels were evaluated in mice after chronic exposure to PS-MPs. Liver inflammation was mainly increased in chronic exposure to 80 nm and 0.5 µm PS-MPs. Liver lipid deposition was significantly enhanced after PS-MP exposure. However, oxidative stress was not changed under PS-MP exposure. GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analyses revealed that the DEGs and shared DEGs were mainly enriched in the metabolism of lipids. The mRNA expression levels of genes related to fatty acid oxidation, synthesis and transport were dramatically induced by PS-MP exposure. Four hub genes, Acot3, Abcc3, Nr1i3 and Fmo2, were identified by CytoHubba analysis of shared DEGs. The mRNA expression levels of three hub genes, Acot3, Abcc3 and Nr1i3, were significantly augmented under chronic PS-MP exposure. Our results suggest that Acot3, Abcc3 and Nr1i3 are potential molecules involved in the development of liver fibrosis under chronic exposure to PS-MPs.

Project description:Plastics are one of the most preoccupying emerging pollutants. Macroplastics released in the environment degrade into microplastics and nanoplastics. Because of their small size, these micro and nano plastic particles can enter the food chain and, in addition to their ecotoxicological effects, contaminate humans with still poorly known biological effects. Plastics being particulate pollutants, they are handled in the human body by scavenger cells such as macrophages, which are important players in the immune system. Because of all the potential problems, it is advocated to replace fossil fuel-based plastics by bio-based and bio-degradable plastics, among which poly-hydroxyalkanoates are the most promising. However, the effects of these on mammalian cells are even less known than those of fossil fuel-based plastics. We therefore designed a study aiming at investigating the effects of polylactic acid (PLA) nanoparticles on macrophages. Indeed, being a plastic, PLA is known to fragment and liberate micro and nanoparticles, exactly as conventional plastics. These particles will be internalized by macrophages and may induce functional consequences on these cells. Proteomics showed important adaptive changes of the proteome in response to exposure to PLA, and several important pathways such as mitochondrion, lysosomes or endoplasmic reticulum were highlighted by the proteomic analysis. However, validation experiments showed that most of these changes were homeostatic and allowed the cells to keep these functions unaltered. When the inflammatory response was examined, no major increase in the secretion of tumor necrosis factor or interleukin 6 was observed. However, the secretion of these cytokines in response to lipopolysaccharide was altered after exposure to PLA. The production of interleukin 6 was decreased, while the production of tumor necrosis factor, showing a complex alteration of cellular responses after exposure to PLA nanoparticles. In conclusion, these results provide a better understanding of the responses of macrophages to exposure to the biodegradable PLA nanoparticles.
