Water pollution caused by widely used agricultural pesticide chlorpyrifos (CPF) has aroused extensive public concern. While previous studies have reported on toxic effect of CPF on aquatic animal, little is known about its effect on common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) livers. In this experiment, we exposed common carp to CPF (11.6 μg/L) for 15, 30, and 45 days to establish a poisoning model. Histological observation, biochemical assay, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), Western blot, and integrated biomarker response (IBR) were applied to assess the hepatotoxicity of CPF in common carp. Our results displayed that CPF exposure damaged histostructural integrity and induced liver injury in common carp. Furthermore, we found that CPF-induced liver injury may be associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and autophagy, as evidenced by swollen mitochondria, broken mitochondrial ridges, and increased the number of autophagosomes. Moreover, CPF exposure decreased the activities of ATPase (Na+/K+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase, and Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase), altered glucose metabolism-related genes (GCK, PCK2, PHKB, GYS2, PGM1, and DLAT), and activated energy-sensing AMPK, indicating that CPF caused energy metabolism disorder. The activation of AMPK further induced mitophagy via AMPK/Drp1 pathway, and induced autophagy via AMPK/mTOR pathway. Additionally, we found that CPF induced oxidative stress (abnormal levels of SOD, GSH, MDA, and H2O2) in common carp livers, which further contributed to the induction of mitophagy and autophagy. Subsequently, we confirmed a time-dependent hepatotoxicity caused by CPF in common carp via IBR assessment. Our findings presented a new insight into molecular mechanism of CPF induced-hepatotoxicity in common carp, and provided a theoretical basis for evaluating CPF toxicity to aquatic organisms.

Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D001343 Autophagy The segregation and degradation of various cytoplasmic constituents via engulfment by MULTIVESICULAR BODIES; VACUOLES; or AUTOPHAGOSOMES and their digestion by LYSOSOMES. It plays an important role in BIOLOGICAL METAMORPHOSIS and in the removal of bone by OSTEOCLASTS. Defective autophagy is associated with various diseases, including NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES and cancer.

D055372 AMP-Activated Protein Kinases Intracellular signaling protein kinases that play a signaling role in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism. Their activity largely depends upon the concentration of cellular AMP which is increased under conditions of low energy or metabolic stress. AMP-activated protein kinases modify enzymes involved in LIPID METABOLISM, which in turn provide substrates needed to convert AMP into ATP. 5'-AMP-Activated Protein Kinase,AMP-Activated Kinase,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase alpha Subunit,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase alpha Subunits,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase beta Subunit,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase beta Subunits,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase gamma Subunit,AMP-Activated Protein Kinase gamma Subunits,PRKAA,5' AMP Activated Protein Kinase,AMP Activated Kinase,AMP Activated Protein Kinase,AMP Activated Protein Kinase alpha Subunit,AMP Activated Protein Kinase alpha Subunits,AMP Activated Protein Kinase beta Subunit,AMP Activated Protein Kinase beta Subunits,AMP Activated Protein Kinase gamma Subunit,AMP Activated Protein Kinase gamma Subunits,AMP Activated Protein Kinases
