Histological changes, lipid metabolism and oxidative stress in the liver of Bufo gargarizans exposed to cadmium concentrations.
TL;DR: It is concluded that high Cd concentrations could affect the normal processes of lipid metabolism though increasing lipid synthesis and reducing the ability of fatty acid β-oxidation, and disturb thyroid hormone pathways in liver, and induced oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histopathological changes and lipid metabolism in the liver of Bufo gargarizans tadpoles exposed to Triclosan
TL;DR: Overall, TCS at high levels induced histopathological changes in the liver of B. gargarizans tadpoles that might have been due to the alteration of oxidative stress-related genes and lipid metabolism- related genes expression levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in intestinal microbiota of Bufo gargarizans and its association with body weight during metamorphosis
TL;DR: A shift in intestinal microbial community composition throughout amphibian metamorphosis is indicated, including reduction in Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria, increases in Bacteroidetes and Fusob bacteria, and the appearance of Verrucomicrobia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptome analysis of genes expressed in the earthworm Eisenia fetida in response to cadmium exposure
TL;DR: The alteration of earthworms' transcriptional level indicated that earthworms could reduce the toxicity and bioavailability of Cd in polluted soil ecosystems through different pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of fluoride on metamorphosis, thyroid and skeletal development in Bufo gargarizans tadpoles
TL;DR: It is suggested that 50 mg L−1 fluoride could damage follicular cells in thyroid gland and induce a sharp reduction in thyroid hormone probably through the up-regulation of D3 mRNA expression, and these influences on thyroid system may delay metamorphosis as well as ossification in bone tissue by inhibiting calcium deposition.
