Abstrakt: Nitrite and sulfide are harmful pollutants in water ecosystems that negatively influence the survival and growth of crayfish. It is currently known that the intestine of crustaceans acts as a significant immune organ, serving as the front line of defense against diseases. In this study, we investigated how the oxidative damage parameters, antioxidant status and microbial composition of the intestine of Procambarus clarkii were influenced under acute nitrite (60 mg/L) and sulfide (18 mg/L) stress for 72 h. Compared with the control, after exposure to nitrite and sulfide stress, the production of reactive oxygen species, and the lipid peroxide and malondialdehyde contents increased in the intestines and were significantly higher after 72 h of exposure. The superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities increased to maximum levels at 6, 24 and 12 h, respectively. These activities then decreased gradually and were significantly lower than those of the control after 48 or 72 h of exposure. In the crayfish exposed to stress, the expression of antioxidant genes including heat shock protein 70, ferritin and metallothionein increased to their maximum values at 12, 48 and 12 h, respectively. The expression levels then decreased gradually, and after 72 h, were lower than, or lacked significant differences with, the expression levels in the control. Additionally, nitrite and sulfide exposure restructured the intestinal microbial community of P. clarkii. This led to decreases in the abundance of some genera such as Citrobacter. However, the abundance of other genera, such as Shewanella and Acinetobacter, increased. Therefore, the health of P. clarkii was seriously impaired when exposed to nitrite and sulfide stress.
