Bisphenol A is a typical endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and produce various toxic effects on animals due to its potential endocrine disruption, oxidative damage effect, mutagenic effect and hypomethylation. To study its effect on the immune system of crustaceans, the Procambarus clarkii were utilized to detect the immune related indicators after 225 mu g/L BPA exposure for 1 week. Hepatopancreatic histology and ultrastructure analysis showed that the brush border disappeared, the lumen increased, and the connection between the hepatic tubules fade away in BPA treated group. BPA could significantly increase the level of ROS, inhibit the activities of antioxidant-related enzymes (SOD, POD, and CAT), and thereby cause the oxidative stress. The enzyme activities of AKP, ACP and lysozyme in hepatopancreas after BPA exposure were also depressed even after Aeromonas hydrophila infections. The relative expression profiles of immune-related genes after BPA exposure and bacterial infection showed suppressed trends of most selected genes. Under A. hydrophila infections, the cumulative mortality of 225 mu g/L BPA-treated crayfish was significantly higher than other groups. All these results indicated that BPA exposure had adverse effects on the immune ability of P. clarkii. The present study will provide an important foundation for further understanding the effects of EDCs on crustacean immune functions.
