摘要: Cadmium (Cd) pollution poses a serious threat to freshwater ecosystems. The freshwater mussel Anodonta woodiana is increasingly used as a bioindicator for monitoring Cd pollution in aquatic environments. However, the primary routes of Cd accumulation in A. woodiana remain unclear, and the molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying Cd accumulation are poorly understood. To address these gaps, this study employed a novel stable isotope dual-tracer technique to trace Cd from water (waterborne Cd-112) and the green alga Chlorella vulgaris (dietary Cd-113) during the simultaneous exposure experiment. Comparative transcriptomic analysis was then conducted to characterize molecular responses in A. woodiana following Cd exposure. The results showed that although newly accumulated Cd-112 and Cd-113 increased with exposure concentration and duration, the relative importance of Cd-112 (91.6 +/- 2.8%) was significantly higher than that of Cd-113 (8.4 +/- 2.8%) (p < 0.05). Cd exposure induced differentially expressed genes primarily enriched in the metabolic processes, cellular processes, and/or the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway. Within the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway, TRIP12 (E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIP12) and Cul5 (cullin-5) were significantly upregulated. The findings will provide critical insights for interpreting Cd biomonitoring data in freshwater environments using mussels as bioindicators.
