“…Higher concentrations of Cr in the leaves (1.03-2.71 ppm) compared to the stems of C. demersum were found by Pourkhabbaz et al 13 Osmolovskaya and Kurylenko 20 reported that the Cr content was 16.5 times higher in the tissues of C. demersum from polluted lake ecosystems compared to unpolluted ones.…”

“…A similar sequence of metal contents in the tissues of C. demersum were reported previously. [10][11][12][13][14] The concentrations of Co and Cr did not show spatial variation in the results (see Tables S-III and S-IV). Significantly higher values of the concentration of Mn, Ni and Zn were recorded at the locations Raduš, Plavnica and the right estuary of the Morača compared to the other three sites (Table S-III).…”

“…Pourkhabbaz et al 13 also found a higher Cu content in the leaves of C. demersum in the range of 19.9-40.0 ppm. Osmolovskaya and Kurylenko 20 detected 10.8 times more copper in C. demersum from contaminated compared to uncontaminated areas from five inland ponds within the city of Saint-Petersburg.…”

Lacustrine systems are very complex water systems in terms of the transport of and interaction with heavy metals. Primarily due to its high variability and current chemical parameters, the tissue of macrophytes is a more plausible bio-indicator of the load level of metals within lake ecosystems than are water or sediment analyses. The macrophyte, Ceratophyllum demersum, sampled from the Skadar Lake in Montenegro was used as a bio-indicator. Sediments, water and plants were examined for their contents of ten metals in four different periods of 2011. The concentrations of the metals followed the trend: sediment > leaf C. demersum > stem C. demersum > water. There were differences in the sequences of the metal content in the plant compared to the sequences of their bioaccumulation ability. These differences suggest a different capacity of macrophytes for different metals. The accumulation of Mn was several times higher than the accumulation of the other analyzed metals. The highest ratio of leaf/stem concentrations was recorded for Mn (2.19) and the lowest was for Pb (1.04). The highest contents of Cd, Co, Cr, Pb, V and Sr were found in the tissues of C. demersum at the beginning of the growing season, whereas Ni, Zn, Cu and Mn were found at the end of the vegetative phase.

Adverse Impact of Heavy Metals on Bone Cells and Bone Metabolism Dependently and Independently through Anemia

Mounting evidence is revealing that heavy metals can incur disordered bone homeostasis, leading to the development of degenerative bone diseases, including osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, degenerative disk disease, and osteomalacia. Meanwhile, heavy metal-induced anemia has been found to be intertwined with degenerative bone diseases. However, the relationship and interplay among these adverse outcomes remain elusive. Thus, it is of importance to shed light on the modes of action (MOAs) and adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) responsible for degenerative bone diseases and anemia under exposure to heavy metals. In the current Review, the epidemiological and experimental findings are recapitulated to interrogate the contributions of heavy metals to degenerative bone disease development which may be attributable dependently and independently to anemia. A few likely mechanisms are postulated for anemia-independent degenerative bone diseases, including dysregulated osteogenesis and osteoblastogenesis, imbalanced bone formation and resorption, and disturbed homeostasis of essential trace elements. By contrast, remodeled bone microarchitecture, inhibited erythropoietin production, and disordered iron homeostasis are speculated to account for anemia-associated degenerative bone disorders upon heavy metal exposure. Together, this Review aims to elaborate available literature to fill in the knowledge gaps in understanding the detrimental effects of heavy metals on bone cells and bone homeostasis through different perspectives.

Two hundred and forty fishes including Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, Silurus glanis, and Esox lucius (male and female) were collected from four sampling sites in Anzali wetland including Anzali, Khazarvila, Pirbazar, and Beshman through late April 2011. The potential health risk of Pb, Sn, and Zn to consumers was assessed by calculating the estimated daily intake, estimated weekly intake, hazard quotient, maximum allowable fish consumption rate, and monthly allowable consumption rate. In addition, the tissue structure of liver was studied in fish. Concentrations of Pb, Sn, Zn, Hg, Cu, and Ni were also measured in water and sediment. Based on the results, the accumulation and distribution patterns of metals in fish from different stations were as follows: Zn > Sn > Pb, H. molitrix < S. glanis ≤ E. lucius, and Khazarvila < Beshman ≤ Pirbazar ≤ Anzali, respectively. The distribution of metals in water and sediment showed the following pattern: Zn > Cu > Hg > Sn > Ni > Pb. Liver samples had a normal histological structure consisted of intersinusoidal hepatocyte cords and hepatic triad in all fish species collected from Pirbazar, Beshman, and Khazarvila stations. In contrast, tissue changes including melanomacrophage aggregations and hemorrhage were detected in S. glanis and E. lucius collected from Anzali station. In sum, the levels of permissible tolerable daily intake and permissible tolerable weekly intake for metals (Pb, Sn, and Zn) in all fish species were lower than the allowable limit defined by Joint FAO/WHO Committee; therefore, consumption of these fishes seems to be safe.
