Reduced expression of exocytotic proteins caused by anti-cholinesterase pesticides in Brachionus calyciflorus (Rotifera: Monogononta)

Abstract: The organophosphate and carbamate pesticides methyl-parathion and carbaryl have a common action mechanism: they inhibit acetylcholinesterase enzyme by blocking the transmission of nerve impulses. However, they can alter the expression of exocytotic membrane proteins (SNARE), by modifying release of neurotransmitters and other substances. This study evaluated the adverse effects of the pesticides methyl-parathion and carbaryl on expression of SNARE proteins: Syntaxin-1, Syntaxin-4 and SNAP-23 in freshwater roti… Show more

“…These results support what is described in the literature about the mechanism of action of botulinum toxin type A, which has as something with SNAP-25 anchoring protein, and that after a certain period, the toxin begins to lose its effect and there is the regeneration of SNAP-25 proteins. According Pérez-Legaspi et al (2015), SNAP-25 protein plays a crucial role in neuroexocytosis and transmitting of nerve impulses.…”

“…Chemical denervation occurs when substances are found on muscle fibers and induce muscular contraction (13). According to Pérez-Legaspi et al (14), SNAP-25 protein plays a crucial role in neuroexocytosis and transmitting a nerve impulse. Moreover, BTX inhibits acetylcholine release from the cholinergic nerve's end, resulting in the inactivity of the innervated muscles or glands (15).…”

“…A ação desses contaminantes ocorre sobre as células nervosas (neurônios) do organismo-alvo (insetos e nematódeos), e consiste em inibir a atividade da enzima, desativando a hidrólise do neurotransmissor acetilcolina (ACh), que originaria acetato e colina (Figura 3). Tal inibição ocasiona o acúmulo da ACh nas junções neuromusculares colinérgicas da sinapse e causa vários efeitos neurotóxicos (excitação, convulsão, paralisia e morte) pelo superestímulo do sistema nervoso central (PEREZ-LEGASPI et al, 2015).…”
