“…However, organisms have developed a complex antioxidant system that protects cells and tissues against the harmful effects of ROS. This antioxidant system includes enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) or glutathione reductase (GR) and low‐molecular‐weight molecules, such as glutathione (GSH; Aliko, Qirjo, Sula, Morina, & Faggio, ; Capo et al, ; Freitas et al, ; Sureda et al, ). ROS overproduction can alter the balance between prooxidants and antioxidants, and this fact causes oxidative stress (Burgos‐Aceves, Cohen, Smith, & Faggio, ; Gobi, Vaseeharan, Rekha, Vijayakumar, & Faggio, ).…”

“…An excess of ROS can react with cellular components contributing to inflammation and tissue damage, altered cellular function and disruption of vital functions (Sureda et al, 2011). In this sense, a high ROS production is associated with an increased lipid peroxidation leading to the formation of malondialdehyde (MDA; Capo, Tejada, Box, Deudero, & Sureda, 2015;Sureda, Capo, Busquets-Cortes, & Tejada, 2018;Sureda, Tejada, Box, & Deudero, 2013).

Perkinsus mediterraneus is a protozoan parasite that can cause marine mollusc diseases known as perkinsosis being a serious threat for clam cultures worldwide. The aim of the present study was first to determine the Perkinsus species infecting the variegated scallop Mimachlamys varia and then to evaluate the existence of oxidative stress in gills of M. varia according to different degrees of infection. DNA sequencing confirmed that P. mediterraneus was the species infecting M. varia. ROS production was progressively increasing with the degree of infection although the differences were only significant in the high‐infected group. Low degree of infection significantly increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione S‐transferase (GST) activities and nitrite levels with respect to the control group. In the high‐infected group, a significant increase was evidenced in all analysed enzymes, catalase, SOD, glutathione reductase and GST. Non‐significant differences in MDA levels were observed between the control and low‐infected groups; however, a significant increase in MDA levels was observed in the high‐infected group. In conclusion, the infection by Perkinsus mediterraneus in M. varia induces oxidative stress and an antioxidant response directly related to the infection degree that can contribute to the pathogenicity of the infection.

Faro Lake is a coastal meromictic lagoon with singular characteristics in the Mediterranean (Messina, Sicily - Italy). It is part of the Natural Oriented Reserve of Capo Peloro (38° 15' 57″ N; 15° 37' 50″ E). In this area, traditional mollusc farming activity persists, producing 'autochthonous' mussels. This study reports of the Mytilus galloprovincialis haemolymph chemical profile and water variables determination of 1 year-lasted survey (April 2016 - March 2017). The determinations of electrolytes (Na , Cl , K , Ca , Mg , P inorganic) and heavy metals in both Faro lake water and haemolymph have been carried out. Heavy metals are elements with high density and are quite toxic in low concentrations, such as Aluminum (Al), Arsenic (As), Cobalt (Co), Chrome (Cr), Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), Magnesium (Mg), Manganese (Mn), Lead (Pb), Tin (Sn), Zinc (Zn). Heavy metals toxicity depends, principally, on bioaccumulation processes. M. galloprovincialis is a good bio-indicator, ideal for assess levels of environmental pollution thanks to its biological, ecological and physiological characteristics. The results of this study showed a typical fluctuation range in haemolymph and water parameters, related to the water ones; chemical-physical parameters affected the ions (electrolytes and metals) levels in some period of the year. The study reports the interactions between biotic (Mytilus galloprovincialis) and abiotic (water parameters) components of Faro Lake, and creates reference data for further future study on the same area or on similar ones.

“…Copper (Cu) is an essential element for the maintenance of homeostasis, but excessive accumulation of Cu ions in organisms may lead to toxicity effects (Chen et al, ). Aquatic environments are the ultimate destination of toxins and sediments (Hedayati et al, ; Sureda et al, ; Vajargah, Hossaini, & Hedayati, ; Yalsuyi & Vajargah, ). Previous studies showed CuO NPs effect on survival and growth rate of organisms (Nations et al, ).…”

Different types of metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been suggested for various applications such as water treatment and construction of agricultural pesticides; however, there are concerns about the potential toxicity of these compounds for the nontarget organism especially aquatic organisms. The aims of this study were assessing toxicity and histopathological effects of copper oxide NPs (NPs-CuO) on common carp (Cyprinus carpio) as a model organism. For this purpose 150 common carp with an average weight 7 ± 1 g were exposed to 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 100, 150, and 200 mg/l of CuO-NPs (10 treatment with three replicates) for 96 hrs. After 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs exposures, mortality rates recorded and gill samples were collected. Statistical analysis showed significant differences in carp survival between control and treatment groups (p < 0.05); regression between fish mortality rate and NPs-CuO concentration was also revealed (p < 0.01). The LC 96h of NPs-CuO for common carp was estimated as 124.9 mg/l in this study. Various tissue damages were observed in gill of treatments; such as, hypertrophy, hyperplasia, lamellar fusions, erythrocyte infiltration, epithelial lifting; also, there was significant correlation between intensity of tissue lesions and concentration of NPs-CuO (p < 0.01). The findings of the present study demonstrate that sublethal concentration of NPs-CuO can lead to serious tissue lesions. Whats more, concentrations above 30 ml/l of NPs-CuO can lead to some clinical signs; such as skin darkening and death with open mouth as well as definite fish death.
