Glyphosate Induces Cardiovascular Toxicity in Danio Rerio

TLDR

The impact and toxicity of glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides on health and immunity

TL;DR: Evidence points to a need for more studies to better decipher the risks from glyphosate and better regulation of its global utilization, as increasing evidence shows that glyphosate and glyphosate-based herbicides exhibit cytotoxic and genotoxic effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological impacts of glyphosate on morphology, embryo biomechanics and larval behavior in zebrafish (Danio rerio).

TL;DR: Larval zebrafish was employed as an animal model to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of glyphosate on early development via morphological, biomechanics, behavioral and physiological analyses, and revealed that embryonic exposure to glyphosate significantly elevated locomotor activities, which is probably attributed to motoneuronal damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical and molecular impacts of glyphosate-based herbicide on the gills of common carp

TL;DR: The biochemical assays results revealed that GLY treatment remarkably altered the transcriptional levels of HSP70 and HSP90; inhibited the activities of SOD, CAT, GPx, GR, and T-AOC; reduced the contents of GSH, but remarkably promoted MDA and PC contents, suggesting thatGLY exposure induced oxidative stress and lipids and proteins damage in the carp gills.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse effects in the fish embryo acute toxicity (FET) test: a catalogue of unspecific morphological changes versus more specific effects in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos

TL;DR: An overview of both common and selected more specific morphological effects seen in zebrafish embryos after exposure to a wide variety of chemical substances together with suggestions for a harmonised nomenclature are provided.

Stages of embryonic development of the zebrafish.

TL;DR: A series of stages for development of the embryo of the zebrafish, Danio (Brachydanio) rerio is described, providing for flexibility and continued evolution of the staging series as the authors learn more about development in this species.

TL;DR: A high-quality sequence assembly of the zebrafish genome is generated, made up of an overlapping set of completely sequenced large-insert clones that were ordered and oriented using a high-resolution high-density meiotic map, providing a clearer understanding of key genomic features such as a unique repeat content, a scarcity of pseudogenes, an enrichment of zebra fish-specific genes on chromosome 4 and chromosomal regions that influence sex determination.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo imaging of embryonic vascular development using transgenic zebrafish.

TL;DR: It is found that the zebrafish fli1 promoter is able to drive expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in all blood vessels throughout embryogenesis, and these transgenic lines allow detailed analysis of both wild type and mutant embryonic vasculature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zebrafish as a model vertebrate for investigating chemical toxicity.

TL;DR: An overview of the rapidly increasing use of zebrafish in toxicology is presented, both in identifying endpoints of toxicity and in elucidating mechanisms of toxicity.
