“…This effect was both dose-dependent and reversible. Previous studies with various species of fish have described inhibition of CL by metals (Elsasser et al, 1986;Wishkovsky et al, 1989) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Warinner et al, 1988).…”

“…The phagocytosis-elicited CL response of kidney phagocytes from spot, Leiostomus xanthrus, collected from a river highly polluted with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons was negligible compared with the response in cells from spot living in a more pristine site (Warinner et al, 1988). Wishkovsky et al (1989) reported that tributyltin (TBT) exposure in vitro inhibited CL responses to ingested zymosan in three species of estuarine fish. Rice and Weeks (1989) concurred that higher TBT doses (-500 pg/I) inhibited CL, but found stimulation of CL by 50 pg/I; the opposing effects of TBT probably result from alterations in calcium flux across the cell membrane induced by different concentrations of TBT.…”

Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average I hour per response, including the time for reviewing Instructions, searching existing data sources. gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Washington Headquarters Services, Directorate Approved for public release; distribution unlimited ABSTRACT (Maximum 200 words)Since 1983, the U.S. Army Biomedical Research and Development Laboratory (USABRDL) has conducted a research program focused on the development of new methods for assessing the potential hazards resulting from exposure to chemicals in the workplace or the environment. This research has been conducted both in-house and extramurally and has involved scientists from other Federal agencies, academic institutions, and the private sector. The need to enhance the integration of the research became increasingly evident as the program grew in the late 1980's. This growth came principally as a result of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers sponsorship of research to develop environmental applications of new, in vivo hazard assessment models for use in the burgeoning Department of Defense environmental remediation program. One of the many uses of these models is to answer the question, "How clean is clean?" and to assist in the establishment of more realistic clean-up goals for hazardous waste sites.An annual research review meeting was undertaken to facilitate the integration and technology transfer of this research program. This publication is the second 14. SUBJECT TERMS Fish, Medaka, Irout, #13.(Continuation) compendium of these meetings.The papers contained in this document are meant to provide the program management staff with an additional means of reviewing the status and progress of extramural and selected in-house studies in the area of new toxicity assessment models. The papers are, therefore, the principal investigators' (PIs') best efforts to characterize the research at the time of the meeting.Some papers cover the results of several years of research and others outline only the planned research of a new project. The data presented and conclusions of the authors represent the best professional judgment of the respective PI at the time of the workshop but are not equivalent to a peer-reviewed report of completed research.

“…The inhibitory effects of in vitro exposure to tributyltin (TBT) on CL of phagocytes from kidneys of three species of estuarine fish were studied by Wishkovsky et al (1989). Other investigators also found that similar concentrations of TBT (-500 Mg/i) inhibited CL, but a lower dose (50 Mg/l) was stimulatory when oyster toadfish macrophages were exposed in vitro (Rice and Weeks, 1989).…”

In this study, male Chinese loaches in a semistatic waterborne exposure system were used to study the effects of tributyltin (TBT) on vitellogenin (Vtg) production induced by 17beta-estradiol (E2), TBT accumulation and distribution in tissues, and the effects of E2 on the distribution of TBT. The results demonstrate that TBT does not induce the synthesis of Vtg in male Chinese loach and that TBT could significantly inhibit Vtg production induced by E2, after exposure to binary mixtures of E2 and TBT for 14 days. TBT was found to accumulate in the liver, kidney, gills, intestines, and muscles of male Chinese loach, wherein the liver, kidney, gills, and intestines were found to have the most TBT accumulation. The existence of E2 did not significantly affect tissue distribution of TBT.
