Summary
Researchers investigated the single and combined effects of microplastics and cadmium on juvenile snakehead fish, finding that co-exposure caused greater tissue damage, oxidative stress, and immune disruption than either pollutant alone.
Microplastics can accumulate residual drugs and heavy metals in the environment and accumulate through the layers of the food chain, ultimately causing harm to human health. The pollution of microplastics in the freshwater environment is becoming more and more serious, which directly affects the safety of aquatic organisms. This experiment studied the effects of single and composite microplastics and Cd on the tissue damage, antioxidant, and immune response of juvenile Channa argus. Microplastics with different diameters of 80 nm, 0.5 μm (200 μg/L), and Cd (50 μg/L) were used for exposure, and four sampling points were set for 24 h, 48 h, 96 h, and clear 48 h. Under different treatments, a certain degree of gill tissue damage can be found in 96 h. Microplastics and Cd can cause oxidative stress and affect the antioxidant status, and the impact of 0.5-μm microplastics is stronger than that of 80-nm microplastics. There is an antagonistic effect between the two microplastics and Cd during compound exposure, but the activity of CAT shows a synergistic effect. Microplastics and Cd affect the expression of immune-related genes to varying degrees. When exposed together, the expression of HSP70 gene all showed mutual antagonism, while the expression of IL-1β gene was different. The expression of the MT gene can infer the ability of microplastics to accumulate Cd, and microplastics with a small diameter of 80 nm have stronger enrichment capabilities.
