Characterization of neurotransmitters and related metabolites in Daphnia magna juveniles deficient in serotonin and exposed to neuroactive chemicals that affect its behavior: A targeted LC-MS/MS method

Inmaculada Fuertes et al.

Summary: A study was conducted to develop an accurate analysis method for neurotransmitters in Daphnia magna. The results showed how neurotransmitter systems in D. magna are affected by chemical compounds, validating the importance of analyzing neurotransmitter levels in environmental neurotoxicity studies.

Polystyrene nanoplastic induces oxidative stress, immune defense, and glycometabolism change in Daphnia pulex: Application of transcriptome profiling in risk assessment of nanoplastics

Zhiquan Liu et al.

Summary: This study used global transcriptome sequencing to investigate the impact of nanoplastic exposure on gene expression levels in Daphnia neonates, revealing key genes associated with oxidative stress, immune defense, and glycometabolism. Daphnia provides some molecular insights into nanoplastic toxicity, but further research on differentially expressed genes is needed to better understand the underlying mechanisms.

Ecological stoichiometric and stable isotopic responses to microplastics are modified by food conditions in koi carp

Ming-Yan Ouyang et al.

Summary: Research shows that the interaction between MPs and different food conditions can affect the growth and nutritional composition of koi carp, which becomes more complex with prolonged exposure. C:P and N:P are identified as the most important parameters affecting the response of koi towards MPs and food restriction.

Effects of polystyrene nanoplastics on Ctenopharyngodon idella (grass carp) after individual and combined exposure with zinc oxide nanoparticles

Fernanda Neves Estrela et al.

Summary: The study found that short-term exposure to PS NPs affected fish's response to mirror tests, as well as induced inactivity towards alarm substances and DNA damage. Increased oxidative stress was observed, and while antioxidant levels were elevated, they were not sufficient to counteract the effects of free radicals produced by the treatment.

The joint effect of parental exposure to microcystin-LR and polystyrene nanoplastics on the growth of zebrafish offspring

Junli Zuo et al.

Summary: The coexposure of PSNPs and MCLR increased the transfer of MCLR to offspring and exacerbated growth inhibition of F1 larvae. This coexposure decreased thyroid hormone levels by altering HPT axis-related gene expression, eventually leading to growth inhibition of F1 larvae. PSNPs and MCLR coexposure also affected key genes of the GH/IGF axis, indicating a potential target for growth inhibition in F1 larvae.

Probiotic consumption relieved human stress and anxiety symptoms possibly via modulating the neuroactive potential of the gut microbiota

Teng Ma et al.

Summary: The study indicates that probiotic supplementation can alleviate stress and anxiety by modulating gut microbiota, increasing microbial diversity, and influencing the levels of beneficial and harmful bacterial species in the gut. Additionally, probiotics also enhance the production of neurotransmitter-synthesizing/consuming species and neuroactive metabolites, supporting the involvement of the gut-brain axis in relieving stress-related symptoms.

Transgenerational neurotoxicity of polystyrene microplastics induced by oxidative stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

Haibo Chen et al.

Summary: This study found that maternal exposure to PS-MPs can result in the transgenerational neurotoxicity in C. elegans, with oxidative stress playing a key role in this process. Furthermore, the upregulation of oxidative stress-related genes across generations may be involved in regulating neurotoxicity in C. elegans.
