Abstract

This experiment was conducted to explore the effects of different concentrations of microplastics on the growth performance, liver oxidative damage and intestinal microbiota of yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco). A total of 360 healthy yellow catfish with a body weight of (2.63±0.03) g was selected and randomly divided into 4 groups, with 3 replicates in each group and 30 fish in each replicate. Each group was raised in water with microplastic (particle size 50 nm) concentrations of 0 [control group (CON group)], 100 (MP-100 group), 1 000 (MP-1000 group), and 10 000 μg/L (MP-10000 group), respectively, and fed the same basal diet. The experiment lasted for 21 days, and sampling was conducted on days 14 and 21 of the experiment, respectively. The results showed as follows: 1) after exposure to different concentrations of microplastics, the intestinal tract, gill filaments and liver of yellow catfish were damaged in varying degrees. 2) Compared with CON group, the weight gain rate (WGR) from days 1 to 14 in MP-100 group and MP-1000 group, as well as the WGR from days 1 to 21 in MP-1000 group, were significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the feed coefficient from days 1 to 21 in MP-1000 group and MP-10000 group was significantly increased (P<0.05). 3) Compared with CON group, on day 14, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in liver in MP-10000 group was significantly increased (P<0.05); on day 21, the activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in liver in MP-10000 group were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the ROS content in liver in MP-10000 group was significantly increased (P<0.05). 4) Compared with CON group, on day 14, the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) content in liver in MP-1000 group and MP-10000 group was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the contents of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in liver in MP-10000 group were significantly increased (P<0.05); on day 21, the contents of TNF-α and IFN-γ in liver in MP-10000 group were significantly increased (P<0.05), and the IL-10 content in liver in MP-100 group, MP-1000 group and MP-10000 group was all significantly increased (P<0.05). 5) At the phylum level, compared with CON group, on day 14, the Pseudomonadota relative abundance in intestine in MP-1000 group was significantly increased (P<0.05), while the Bacillota relative abundance in intestine in MP-10000 group was significantly decreased (P<0.05); on day 21, the Fusobacteriota relative abundance in intestine in MP-1000 group was significantly decreased (P<0.05). In conclusion, microplastics can induce the liver oxidative damage, inflammatory response and intestinal microbiota imbalance of yellow catfish, thereby delaying its growth.

塑料自发明以来,因其便利性和成本低,被广泛使用在日常生活中。随着使用量的增加,环境中的废弃塑料也随之增加,塑料受外力因素粉碎成小颗粒,粒径小于5 mm的塑料称之为微塑料[1-2]。同时,随着人类活动范围的扩大,微塑料污染范围也随之扩大,其因颗粒小、易扩散等特点[3-4],以及受自然因素的影响,在太平洋、大西洋(地中海)等海洋区域均已检测到微塑料的存在[5-7]。水环境中的微塑料会借助呼吸、摄食等途径侵入水生生物体内[8-9],持续在其体内富集,并随着食物链逐级传递、不断累积,不仅破坏生态系统的平衡稳定[10],还会对人类健康构成潜在威胁[11-12]
黄颡鱼(Pelteobagrus fulvidraco)属于鲶形目鲿科黄颡鱼属,在我国各大水系均有分布,是极具特色的重要淡水养殖品种[13]。据《2024中国渔业统计年鉴》数据显示,2023年我国黄颡鱼产量达62.2万t。黄颡鱼由于肉质鲜美且鱼刺较少,深受消费者喜爱。已有研究表明,微塑料对生物体造成的常见危害包括引发氧化损伤及损害肠道健康,具体表现为相关酶活性的改变和肠道菌群失衡[14-15],本研究聚焦于探究不同浓度微塑料对黄颡鱼造成生物损伤的潜在影响。

1.5.2 生长性能

生长性能相关指标按照以下公式计算:
增重率(WGR,%)=100×(Wt-W0)/W0;
饲料系数(FCR)=F/(Wt-W0);
肝体比(HSI,%)=100×W/Wt
式中:W0为黄颡鱼初始体重(g);Wt为黄颡鱼终末体重(g);F为试验期间黄颡鱼摄入饲料总量(g);W为黄颡鱼肝脏重量(g)。

1.5.4 肠道、鳃丝和肝脏组织形态

肠道、鳃丝和肝脏组织在4%多聚甲醛溶液中固定24 h后,进行脱水、包埋、切片、染色和封片等处理,采用光学显微镜对切片进行观察和扫描,使用CaseViewer 2.4软件分析组织形态。

1.5.5 肠道菌群

肠道内容物样品送至上海美吉生物医药科技有限公司进行肠道菌群测序分析,基于Illumina NovaSeq测序平台,利用双末端测序的方法,构建小片段文库进行测序。对reads进行拼接过滤、聚类或去噪,并进行物种注释及相对丰度分析。

1.6 数据统计分析

采用SPSS 22.0对试验数据进行单因素方差分析(one-way ANOVA)和Duncan氏法多重比较检验,显著性水平设为P<0.05;结果以“平均值±标准差(mean±SD)”形式表示。采用Origin 2024和Adobe Illustrator 2023对数据进行处理,并制作图表。

2.4 微塑料对黄颡鱼肠道、鳃丝和肝脏组织形态的影响

3 讨论

3.1 微塑料对黄颡鱼肝脏氧化损伤和炎症因子含量的影响

氧化应激反应是识别微塑料颗粒暴露影响的重要生物标志,而微塑料在肝脏中富集会导致肝脏氧化损伤和代谢紊乱[18]。Matés[19]和Schülke等[20]研究表明,微塑料暴露会引起螃蟹体内ROS增加,刺激防御系统对抗氧化应激。本试验中,第14和21天时,MP-10000组组黄颡鱼肝脏ROS含量均显著高于CON组,表明在微塑料暴露刺激下,黄颡鱼氧化应激反应加剧,ROS生成增加。SOD和CAT是2种重要的抗氧化酶,已被证实是生物体内抗氧化剂防御的第一道防线[21];GSH-Px在保护生物体免受氧化损伤方面也起着重要作用[22]。在微塑料暴露试验中,红螯螯虾肝胰腺SOD活性显著升高[23],低浓度微塑料暴露使中华绒螯蟹肝脏SOD和GSH-Px活性升高[24]。本试验中,第14天时,各组间黄颡鱼肝脏SOD、CAT和GSH-Px活性无显著差异;第21天时,MP-10000组肝脏SOD活性显著高于CON组,这可能是在微塑料刺激下,机体通过提高SOD活性以应对持续的氧化反应;此外,第21天时,MP-10000组肝脏GSH-Px活性显著高于CON组,表明在持续的微塑料暴露下,机体可能通过提高GSH-Px活性来增强抗氧化防御能力,以此来应对持续的氧化应激。
潘春等[25]研究报道,5 μm微塑料可使小鼠前列腺组织炎症细胞大量浸润,炎症因子含量显著升高;聚苯乙烯暴露引起成年斑马鱼肠道IFN-γ蛋白表达水平变化[26]。本试验中,第14天时,与CON组相比,MP-1000和MP-10000组黄颡鱼肝脏TNF-α含量显著提高,MP-10000组肝脏IFN-γ和IL-10含量显著提高;第21天时,与CON组相比,各微塑料暴露组肝脏炎症因子含量均有所提高,由此推测,微塑料暴露可能会引起机体炎症反应。

3.2 微塑料对黄颡鱼生长性能和组织形态的影响

微塑料可通过主动进食等方式进入体内,并随着体循环转移至不同的组织。肝脏是鱼类最重要的解毒器官[5],微塑料颗粒可以穿过生物屏障进入体循环[15],在消化道内富集[18]。已有研究报道,微塑料暴露后富集在鱼类肠道中会导致消化道阻塞,诱发饱腹感,减少摄食,影响营养物质吸收,并最终影响鱼类生长[27-28]。研究表明,长期微塑料暴露会抑制雌性斑马鱼生长[29];投喂含有微塑料的饲料会抑制许氏平鲉的生长[30]。本试验中,经微塑料暴露后,各微塑料暴露组黄颡鱼终末体重和WGR均低于CON组,说明微塑料富集在黄颡鱼肠道影响了肠道对营养物质的吸收,从而减缓了生长。外环境微塑料的持续刺激会导致鳃丝持续分泌黏液,而黏液会进一步吸附微塑料颗粒,加重损伤。据报道,对斑马鱼进行21 d的微塑料摄入试验,在斑马鱼肝脏上发现微塑料颗粒[31];当日本青鳉摄入微塑料后会改变肌肉和肝脏的胆固醇分布,引起脂肪空泡的形成和单细胞坏死[32];幼年非洲鲶鱼暴露在聚乙烯环境中会加重肝脏组织损伤,并引起与生殖过程相关基因的表达发生变化[33];经微塑料暴露后的斑马鱼肠道和鳃丝出现损伤[11]。本试验中,各微塑料暴露组黄颡鱼肝脏都出现了不同程度的损伤,高浓度微塑料组(MP-10000组)黄颡鱼肝脏组织切片中出现明显空泡化,这可能是由于存在于环境中的微塑料通过体循环进入水生生物体内,刺激肝细胞导致细胞结构受损;同时,与第14天相比,第21天的肠道组织损伤程度进一步加剧,肠壁结构完整性受损,肠绒毛脱落、溶解等病理特征更为突出,表明长期高浓度微塑料暴露会对黄颡鱼肠道组织造成更为严重的损害;此外,各微塑料暴露组鳃丝出现了不同程度的损伤,且随着微塑料浓度的升高,鳃丝断裂和畸形情况加剧,这表明微塑料富集在一定程度上破坏了鳃丝的结构和功能。

3.3 微塑料对黄颡鱼肠道菌群的影响

肠道是鱼类营养物质消化吸收的重要场所,肠道健康是鱼类正常生长发育的前提,也是鱼类抵御病害的第一道防线[34]。肠道菌群影响肠道功能,稳定的菌群有利于鱼类的生长和健康[35];反之,肠道菌群的变化可能导致免疫系统紊乱,诱发多种疾病[36]。本试验中,在门水平上,黄颡鱼肠道主要由假单胞菌门、梭杆菌门和芽孢杆菌门等组成,这与陈严轩等[37]在黄颡鱼上的研究结果相似。研究表明,假单胞菌门(又名变形菌门)相对丰度被认为与诱导炎症有关[38-39];在水生生物体研究中,梭杆菌门能调节鱼类新陈代谢,被认为是有益菌[40];芽孢杆菌门(又名厚壁菌门)可以分泌消化酶,从而有利于分解蛋白质等营养物质[41]。本试验中,经过14 d微塑料暴露后,在门水平上,MP-100组和MP-1000组黄颡鱼肠道假单胞菌门相对丰度高于CON组,各微塑料暴露组肠道芽孢杆菌门相对丰度低于CON组;暴露至21 d时,MP-1000组和MP-10000组肠道假单胞菌门相对丰度高于CON组,肠道梭杆菌门相对丰度低于CON组。在属水平上,黄颡鱼肠道主要由暂定分节丝状菌属、鲸杆菌属和假单胞菌属等组成,这与陈严轩等[37]的研究结果相似。同时,经过21 d微塑料暴露后,MP-1000组和MP-10000组肠道鲸杆菌属相对丰度低于CON组。鲸杆菌属是鱼类肠道菌群的优势菌,也是鱼类肠道的“土著”菌,具有一定的抑制有害菌的作用,对鱼体健康起重要调控作用[11,42]。研究报道,鲸杆菌属具有增强肠道微生物与肠道屏障相互作用的能力,能够提高宿主抵抗力[43-44]

4 结论

综上所述,微塑料会诱发黄颡鱼肝脏氧化损伤、炎症反应以及肠道菌群失衡等,进而延缓其生长。
