摘要: The response of synthetic substrates of sex steroid hormones-cholesterol (CHO), pregnenolone (PREG), and progesterone (PROG)-in the serum and testes of male tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) to the environmental estrogen pesticide methomyl (0.2, 2, 20, and 200 mu g & BULL;L-1) was evaluated using static-water contact toxicity tests. The results showed that low methomyl concentrations (0.2 and 2 mu g & BULL;L-1) had no significant effects on the contents of CHO, PREG, and PROG in the serum and testes of male tilapia (p > 0.05). Consequently, the concentration of 2 mu g & BULL;L-1 could be used as a preliminary reference threshold for the non-effective dose of methomyl in male tilapia. Exposure to high methomyl concentrations (20 and 200 mu g & BULL;L-1) significantly inhibited the levels of CHO, PREG, and PROG in the serum and testes of male tilapia (p < 0.05) and showed a dose-response relationship. Sex steroid hormone synthesis substrate damage to male tilapia caused by less than 20 mu g & BULL;L-1 methomyl was reversible, while the damage caused by equal to or greater than 200 mu g & BULL;L-1 methomyl was irreversible when tilapia were transferred to methomyl-free water for 18 days. Thus, a concentration of 200 mu g & BULL;L-1 could be used as a reference threshold for irreversible damage caused by methomyl in male tilapia.
