Sažetak
Organophosphate esters (OPEs) draw growing concern about characterizing the potential risk on environmental health due to its wide usage and distribution. Two typical types of organophosphate esters (OPEs): tris (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) and tricresyl phosphate (TCP) were selected to evaluate toxicity of OPEs to the soil organism like earthworm (Eisenia fetida). Histopathological examination (H&E), oxidative stress, DNA damage and RT-qPCR was used to identify the effects and potential mechanism of their toxicity. Hameatoxylin and eosin (H&E) demonstrated that intestinal cells suffered serious damage, and the observed up-regulation of chitinase and cathepsin L in mRNA levels confirmed it. Both TCEP and TCP significantly increased the DNA damage when the concentrations exceeded 1 mg/kg (p < 0.01), and a dose-response relationship was observed. In addition, TCEP and TCP also changed the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and expression of genes associated with neurotoxic effects in earthworms even under exposure to low OPEs concentration (0.1 mg/kg). Moreover, genes associated with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and carrier protein further demonstrated that highest concentration of TCEP (10 mg/kg) may have an overloading impact on the cholinergic system of E. fetida. Integrated Biological Response index (IBRv2) showed that TCEP exerted stronger toxicity than TCP under the same concentrations. We deduced that the observed intestinal damage, oxidative stress and neurotoxic effect might be the primary mechanisms of TCEP and TCP toxicity. This study provides insight into the toxicological effects of OPEs on earthworm model, and may be useful for risk assessment of OPEs on soil ecosystems.
