Overview

Assessment reveals cadmium impacts oxidative stress and metabolite profiles in Paracentrotus lividus, indicating significant environmental risks.

Key Points

  • Cadmium exposure increases oxidative stress biomarkers in the gonads of Paracentrotus lividus.
  • Metabolomics identified 74 metabolites, with significant changes in sterols and fatty acids observed.
  • Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyzed the metabolite profiles in treated and control sea urchins.
  • These findings suggest considerable sensitivity of gonads to cadmium pollution even at low concentrations.
