The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is rich in taurine, a conditionally essential amino acid functioning in anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, anti-aging, osmoregulation, and neuromodulation. Breeding oyster varieties with enhanced taurine content is significant to meet people's demand for high-quality oysters. In the present study, polymorphisms in the oyster cysteamine dioxygenase (CgADO) gene that encodes the central enzyme of the cysteamine pathway for taurine synthesis were investigated, and their association with taurine content was assessed in the Changhai (CH) and Qinhuangdao (QHD) populations.

The growing usage of glucocorticoids for a variety of diseases raises concerns since these drugs, including the anti-inflammatory dexamethasone (DEX), are frequently found in the environment. The impact of DEX was evaluated on mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis (Lamarck, 1819) by exposure to environmental concentrations (C1: 4 ng/L; C2: 40 ng/L; C3: 400 ng/L; C4: 2000 ng/L), and sampling at 3 (T3), 6 (T6), and 12 (T12) days. A multi-biomarker approach was applied on gills, involved in gas exchange, feed filtering, and osmoregulation.

Zinc oxide nanoparticles, increasingly used in industrial and consumer products, and low salinity, exacerbated by climate change-induced alterations in precipitation patterns, represent significant environmental pressures in estuarine and coastal environments. This study advances previous research on their impacts on Hong Kong oysters (Crassostrea hongkongensis) by integrating metabolomics of hepatopancreas and gills with intestinal microbiomics. Employing advanced multi-omics integration methods, our analysis reveals novel insights into metabolic resilience under combined stress conditions.

This study investigated the toxicological effects and mechanisms of cadmium (Cd) (5 and 50 μg/L) and selenium (Se) (3 and 30 μg/L) at environmentally relevant concentrations on the gills and digestive glands of clams Ruditapes philippinarum. Results indicated that Cd and Se could tissue-specifically impact osmoregulation, energy metabolism, and synaptic transmission in the gills and digestive glands of clams. After exposure to 50 μg/L Cd, the digestive glands of clams up-regulated the expression of methionine-gamma-lyase and metallothionein for detoxification.
