The current study describes the effect of cypermethrin, fluoxetine, and thiabendazole. at environmentally relevant concentrations, on the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta). using Xenopus lams larvae as animal model Cytokines and interleukins arc considered good predictors of the immunotoxic potential of xenobiotics Tadpoles at stage 47 (normal tables of X beets) were exposed under static conditions to 0 3 and 30 mu g/L fluoxetine, 0 7 mu g/L thiabendazole. and 0 24 mu g/L cypermethrin The effects were evaluated at 7, 24, and 72 h. and 6 and 9 d Randomly chosen tadpoles were used as genetic material for detection of hsp70 and IL-1 beta mRNA induction through reverse transcription PCR Tadpoles exposed to 30 mu g/L fluoxetine showed mRNA expression of both genes at all exposure times, whereas at 0 3 mu g/L a peak response for hsp70 was observed after 24 h, and the increase in IL-1 beta mRNA was statistically significant with respect to the control 72h after exposure. Thiabendazole induced a high expression of mRNA for both hsp70 and IL-1 beta at all exposure times Cypermethrin increased the hsp70 mRNA levels, with a peak at 24 h. and provoked high expression of IL-1 beta mRNA at all exposure times Considering the relationship between HSP70 and IL-1 beta and their involvement (mainly of IL-1 beta) in immune responses, certain changes observed in their expression could be considered warning indicators of potential immunotoxic effects of these substances on Xenopus Environ Toxicol Chem 2010,29 2536-2543 (C) 2010 SETAC
