“…In the same species, Yoon et al [ 154 ] examined how multiple exposure to tributyltin (TBT)—an organotin compound—MPs, and a dietary regimen affects reproduction and can influence offspring. Surprisingly, the results showed that environmentally relevant MP concentrations and feed can attenuate the TBT toxic effects, evidencing the major efficacy of the diet.…”

Micro- and nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) are among the most widely distributed pollutants in the environment. It has been suggested that exposure to MPs/NPs can trigger toxicity pathways among which inflammation and oxidative stress (OS) play a pivotal role. Once absorbed, MPs/NPs may act locally or access the bloodstream and, following the translocation process, reach several organs and tissues, including the gonads. Notably, MPs/NPs can bioaccumulate in human and murine placenta, opening new scenarios for toxicological evaluations. We review recent studies on the effects of MPs/NPs on the reproductive health in aquatic and terrestrial organisms of both sexes, focusing on the role of OS and the antioxidant defence system failure as the main underlying mechanisms. Alterations in gametogenesis, embryonic and offspring development, and survival have been shown in most studies and often related to a broken redox balance. All these detrimental effects are inversely related to particle size, whereas they are closely linked to shape, plastic polymer type, superficial functionalization, concentration, and time of exposure. To date, the studies provide insights into the health impacts, but no conclusions can be drawn for reproduction toxicity. The main implication of the few studies on antioxidant substances reveals their potential role in mitigating MP-induced toxic effects.

“…Studies covering a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial animal species indicated that oxidative stress, due to increased ROS production in cells and tissues, is a major molecular event triggered by MP/NP exposure ( Supplementary Tables S1, S2 ). Increased ROS levels and/or altered expression of oxidative stress defense system were detected upon MP/NP exposure in the marine rotifer Brachionus species, copepods ( Tigriopus japonicus ) ( Xue et al, 2021 ; Yoon et al, 2021 ), Daphnia species ( Liu et al, 2021b ), green mussel ( Perna viridis ) ( Hariharan et al, 2021 ), marine medaka ( Oryzias melastigma ), zebrafish ( Danio rero ) ( Qiang and Cheng, 2021 ), Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) ( Ismail et al, 2021 ), as well as terrestrial organism including Eisenia sp. , rat and mouse .…”

“…It has been suggested that MP-induced ROS could lead to DNA damage and defects in sperm cells, such as observed in earthworms ( Huang et al, 2021 ), leading to decreased fertility. Interestingly, the availability of increased food supply in aquatic species could suppress the reproductive toxicity of PS-NPs (50 nm diameter spheres) ( Yoon et al, 2021 ) or PE-MPs (10–22 μm) ( Xue et al, 2021 ), affecting ROS levels or the function of endogenous ROS scavenging system altered by MPs and their pollutants. Therefore careful experimental design and replicable experimental conditions are vital for developing understanding of the real-life impact of MP/NP pollution on wild-life reproduction.…”

Microplastics and Their Impact on Reproduction—Can we Learn From the C. elegans Model?

Biologically active environmental pollutants have significant impact on ecosystems, wildlife, and human health. Microplastic (MP) and nanoplastic (NP) particles are pollutants that are present in the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems at virtually every level of the food chain. Moreover, recently, airborne microplastic particles have been shown to reach and potentially damage respiratory systems. Microplastics and nanoplastics have been shown to cause increased oxidative stress, inflammation, altered metabolism leading to cellular damage, which ultimately affects tissue and organismal homeostasis in numerous animal species and human cells. However, the full impact of these plastic particles on living organisms is not completely understood. The ability of MPs/NPs to carry contaminants, toxic chemicals, pesticides, and bioactive compounds, such as endocrine disrupting chemicals, present an additional risk to animal and human health. This review will discusses the current knowledge on pathways by which microplastic and nanoplastic particles impact reproduction and reproductive behaviors from the level of the whole organism down to plastics-induced cellular defects, while also identifying gaps in current knowledge regarding mechanisms of action. Furthermore, we suggest that the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans provides an advantageous high-throughput model system for determining the effect of plastic particles on animal reproduction, using reproductive behavioral end points and cellular readouts.

“…6 Additionally, MPs can modify mitochondrial function and apoptosis in zebrafish. 7 MPs increase the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the marine rotifer Brachionus koreanus , 8 while high MP concentrations induce dextran sulfate sodium-mediated lipid disorders and an increase in inflammatory cytokine levels and triglyceride production. 9…”
