Abstrakt: It is well documented that diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP) toxins have strong genetic toxicity, cytotoxicity and oxidative damage to bivalve species. However, these toxic effects seem to decrease with the extension of exposure time and the increment of the toxin concentration, the mechanism involved remained unclear, though. In this paper, we found that expression of the genes related to cytoskeleton and Nrf2 signaling pathway displayed different changes over time in the gill of Perna viridis after exposure to DSP toxins-producing microalga Prorocentrum lima. During the short-term exposure (3 h and 6 h), KEAP1 gene expression was significantly up-regulated, coupled with up-regulation of MRP, ABCB1 and CAT transcriptions and down-regulation of GPx1 and NQO1 mRNA. After longer exposure to high density of P. lima, Nrf2 was significantly up-regulated, accompanied with up-regulation of Nrf2 pathway related genes such as NQO1, SOD, GST-ω and ABCB1, whereas KEAP1 was down-regulated. TUBA1C and TUBB1 transcripts were significantly down-regulated after short-term exposure of P. lima, but both of them were up-regulated at 96 h after exposure to high density of P. lima. Paraffin section demonstrated that P. lima had a strong damage on the gill of mussels during the short-term exposure. However, the negative effect to the gill decreased, and the gill restored after longer exposure (96 h). Taking together, we proposed that P. lima had a negative impact on cytoskeleton of mussel gill tissue, could cause oxidative damage to the gills. However, longer exposure of P. lima in high density could activate Nrf2 signaling pathway, thereby reducing the influence of toxin on mussel. Our study might provide a novel clue for the resistance mechanism of shellfish to DSP toxins.
