Being RXR is involved in lipid homeostasis, exposure to TPT would have an immediate effect on lipid homeostasis. To test this hypothesis, the ramshorn snail Marisa cornuarietis was exposed to environmentally relevant concentrations of TPT (30, 125, 500 ng/L as Sn) in a semi-static water regime for 7-days. Percentage of lipids and total fatty acid content decreased significantly in TPT-exposed females while the activity of peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase, involved in fatty acid catabolism, increased. In addition, fatty acid profiles (carbon chain length and unsaturation degree) were significantly altered in exposed females but not in males. This work highlights the ability of TPT to disrupt lipid metabolism in M. cornuarietis at environmentally realistic concentrations and the higher susceptibility of females in comparison to males. This study was supported by the European Union (COMPRENDO-Project, EVK1-CT-2002-00129) and the Spanish National Plan for Research (Project Ref CGL2005-02846). 2012-03-02T11:17:27Z 2012-03-02T11:17:27Z 2009-05 artículo http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 Environmental pollution 157(5):1714-1720 (2009) 0269-7491 http://hdl.handle.net/10261/46519 10.1016/j.envpol.2008.12.013 1873-6424 en http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.envpol.2008.12.013 open Elsevier
