摘要: Cadmium (Cd) pollution is intractable heavy metal pollution in the farmland ecosystem, posing a life-threatening challenge to the paddy field organisms. Spiders are riveting animal biomarkers for evaluating Cd-induced toxicity, yet the effects of long-term Cd toxicity on spider reproductive function and its underlying mechanism remain unclear. In the present study, we found that Cd exposure impaired the antioxidant enzyme system in the wolf spider Pardosa pseudoannulata and decreased the concentration of four antioxidant enzymes (catalase, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and peroxidase) (p < 0.05). The content of vitellogenin and the number of hatched spiderlings were also dramatically reduced under Cd stress (p < 0.05), indicating that Cd stress could vitiate the fecundity of P. pseudoannulata. Moreover, a total of 10,511 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 391 proteins (DEPs) were yielded from the ovarian transcriptome and proteome, and a mass of genes and proteins involved in protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) were significantly down-regulated. DEGs and DEPs directly encoding the antioxidant enzyme system and/or vitellogenesis were also distinctively down-regulated. In addition, we illustrated that the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway might play a crucial role in regulating protein synthesis, cell cycle, growth, differentiation and survival in P. pseudoannulata. The effects of protein processing in ER and PI3K-AKT pathways could further trigger transcriptional factor Forkhead shackling the protein synthesis and cell growth process. Collectively, this integrated analysis identified the Cd-induced reproductive toxicity on P. pseudoannulata and provided multifaceted insights to investigate the molecular mechanisms of spiders to Cd pollution.
