代谢
微囊藻素(MC)-LR-GSH、MC-LR-Cys和MC-LR在太湖杂食性鱼类的组织分布进行了研究。MC-LR和MC-LR-Cys在肝脏、肾脏和肌肉中被检测到。肝脏和肾脏中MC-LR的浓度分别为0.052微克/克干重和0.067微克/克干重。MC-LR-Cys似乎是一个重要的代谢物,肝脏和肾脏的平均含量分别为1.104微克/克干重和0.724微克/克干重,肝脏和肾脏中MC-LR-Cys/MC-LR的比例高达21.4和10.8。肝脏中MC-LR-Cys/MC-LR比例较高,以及MC-LR-Cys与MC-LR浓度之间存在显著相关性,这表明对于杂食性鱼类来说,肝脏在通过形成MC-LR-Cys来解毒MC-LR方面更为活跃。此外,肾脏中MC-LR-Cys的积累和排泄/代谢之间可能存在一种平衡。MC-LR-Cys可以直接在肾脏形成,或者从肝脏或其他组织转运而来,而肾脏中的MC-LR-Cys可能会解离为MC-LR或被排出。尽管在肌肉中很少检测到MC-LR及其代谢物,但有必要研究食用肌肉中有毒代谢物的分布。
Tissue distribution of microcystin (MC)-LR-GSH, MC-LR-Cys and MC-LR of omnivorous fish in Lake Taihu was investigated. MC-LR and MC-LR-Cys were detected in liver, kidney and muscle. The concentration of MC-LR in liver and kidney was 0.052 ug g-1 DW and 0.067 ug g-1 DW, respectively. MC-LR-Cys appeared to be an important metabolite with average contents of 1.104 ug g-1 DW and 0.724 ug g-1 DW in liver and kidney, and the MC-LR-Cys/MC-LR ratio in liver and kidney reaching as high as 21.4 and 10.8. High MC-LR-Cys/MC-LR ratio and a significant correlation between MC-LR-Cys and MC-LR concentration in liver, suggest that liver is more active in detoxification of MC-LR by formation of MC-LR-Cys for omnivorous fish. Furthermore, there might be a balance between the accumulation and depuration/metabolism of MC-LR-Cys in kidney. The MC-LR-Cys can be formed in kidney directly, or transported from liver or other tissues, while the MC-LR-Cys in kidney might be dissociated to MC-LR or excreted. Although MC-LR and its metabolites were scarcely detected in muscle, it is necessary to investigate the distribution of toxic metabolites in edible muscle.
