摘要

Abstract

Microplastics pollution and seawater temperature rise have been the major environmental issues

threatening the survival and biodiversity of marine organisms. This study evaluated the combined effect of temperature and polystyrene microplastics (MP) on

Artemia

a filter-feeding crustacean that is widely used for environmental toxicology studies. Brine shrimp

Artemia franciscana

were exposed to three MP concentrations (0

0.2

and 2.0 mg/L) and three temperatures (22

and 30 ℃) for 14 d. In general

higher MP concentration and temperature led to a decreased survival rate and growth. Two-way ANOVA analysis indicated that the survival rate of

Artemia

was significantly impacted by both MP concentration and temperature (

0.05)

but there was no significant interaction between two factors (

0.05). Growth of

Artemia

was significantly impacted by temperature (

0.05)

and with a significant interaction between two factors (

0.05). Furthermore

the enzymatic activity

intestinal histological analyses

and immune gene expression were determined for

Artemia

reared at 30 ℃ with three MP concentrations (0

0.2

and 2.0 mg/L). The results showed that 2.0-mg/L MP resulted in reduced

Artemia

intestinal microvilli and exfoliated epithelia cells

significantly increased acid phosphatase (ACP) activity (

0.05) and immunerelated gene

ADRA1B

and

CREB3

expression

revealing that higher MP concentration could induce oxidative and immunological stress on

Artemia

at 30 ℃. Overall

our study suggests that MP and temperature have combined adverse effect on

Artemia

especially at relatively high temperature and polystyrene MP concentration. These findings are important to understand the potential ecological risks posed by these two factors on the organisms in marine environment.
