鼠李糖乳杆菌改善三丁基锡暴露诱发的斑马鱼神经和心血管系统损伤

LACTOBACILLUS RHAMNOSUS AMELIORATES NEURAL AND CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM DAMAGE INDUCED BY TRIBUTYLTIN (TBT) EXPOSURE IN ZEBRAFISH

  • 摘要: 研究以斑马鱼(Danio rerio)为模型, 旨在探究饲料中添加益生菌鼠李糖乳杆菌(Lactobacillus rhamnosus)对三丁基锡(TBT)毒性的改善作用及其机制。研究选用成年斑马鱼, 分为三组: DMSO (二甲基亚砜)(对照组), TBT (2 μg/L TBT)和TBT+PRO (2 μg/L TBT补充鼠李糖乳杆菌), 进行为期21d的饲喂。结果显示, 与TBT单独暴露相比, 同时补充L. rhamnosus后, 斑马鱼肠道内厚壁菌门(Firmicutes)和乳杆菌属(Lacticaseibacillus)的丰度显著升高; 肠道内壁厚度增加、肠绒毛损伤得到缓解, 脑室肿大及心脏组织炎症细胞浸润和空泡化减轻。在分子水平上, 肠道、脑和心脏中促炎因子(tnf-αil-1β)的表达显著下调, 抑炎因子(il-10)的表达显著上调; 肠道紧密连接蛋白基因(claudin-2zo-1)表达升高, 肠道通透性降低。此外, 斑马鱼脑、血清和肠道中的脂多糖(LPS)水平显著降低, 下丘脑-垂体-肾间(HPI)轴相关基因(crhr2mrpomc)的过度表达受到抑制, 关键神经元基因(α1-tubulinbdnfshha)的表达有所恢复, 皮质醇(Cor)水平显著下降, 且心脏中凋亡相关基因(caspase-3caspase-9bax)的表达显著下调。以上结果表明, L. rhamnosus能调节斑马鱼肠道菌群平衡、降低LPS水平、抑制HPI轴过度激活及缓解炎症与凋亡反应, 改善TBT暴露引起的神经和心血管系统损伤, 为水产养殖中TBT污染的生物修复及益生菌应用提供了理论依据和实践策略。

     

    Abstract: This study utilized zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model to investigate the ameliorative effects and underlying mechanisms of dietary supplementation with the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus on toxicity induced by tributyltin (TBT). Adult zebrafish were divided into three groups: a DMSO control group, a TBT group (2 μg/L TBT), and a TBT+PRO group (2 μg/L TBT supplemented with L. rhamnosus), and were fed accordingly for 21 days. The results showed that compared to TBT exposure alone, co-supplementation with L. rhamnosus significantly increased the abundances of Firmicutes and Lacticaseibacillus in the intestine; increased intestinal wall thickness and alleviated villi damage; reduced cerebral ventricle enlargement, and mitigated inflammatory cell infiltration and vacuolation in heart tissue. At the molecular level, the expression of pro-inflammatory factors (tnf-α, il-1β) was significantly downregulated, while the expression of the anti-inflammatory factor (il-10) was significantly upregulated in the intestine, brain, and heart. The expression of intestinal tight junction protein genes (claudin-2, zo-1) increased, leading to reduced intestinal permeability. Furthermore, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) levels were significantly decreased in the brain, serum, and intestine; the overexpression of hypothalamic-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis-related genes (crhr2, mr, pomc) was suppressed; the expression of key neuronal genes (α1-tubulin, bdnf, shha) was restored; cortisol (Cor) levels were significantly reduced; and the expression of apoptosis-related genes (caspase-3, caspase-9, bax) in the heart was significantly downregulated. These results indicate that L. rhamnosus can modulate the gut microbiota balance, reduce LPS levels, inhibit HPI axis overactivation, and alleviate inflammatory and apoptotic responses, thereby ameliorating TBT-induced damage to the nervous and cardiovascular systems in zebrafish. This study provides a theoretical basis and practical strategies for the bioremediation of TBT pollution and the application of probiotics in aquaculture.
