Contaminant induced lysosomal membrane damage in marine mussel digestive cells: an in vitro study.

Marine mussels are exposed to various stressors on a daily basis; the most prominent of these stressors is their exposure to tidal variation.

Sex-limited mitochondrial DNA transmission in the marine mussel Mytilus edulis.

Reproductive effort and value in different populations of the marine mussel, Mytilus edulis L.

We hypothesized that the synthetic musks, which are small-molecular-weight, moderately hydrophobic compounds, might be such chemosensitizers, and preliminary studies indeed showed inhibition of efflux transporters in gill tissues of a marine mussel (Luckenbach et al.

Our data show that POP levels and AR activity of the marine mussel extracts, in the presence of 0.1 nM DHT, are significantly and positively related and that the enhanced activity of reference hormones in the presence of biological extracts can be usefully applied as an indicator of EDCs in marine biota.
