dc.description.abstractWe have previously shown that the dithiocarbamate fungicide, Mancozeb, strongly induces lacZ reporter expression from an endogenous heat-shock promoter (hsp16) in the PC72 transgenic strain of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Such evidence of organismal stress, in a nontarget species at subapplication concentrations, was much less apparent for the related fungicide, Maneb, which only weakly induced reporter expression. We now show that reporter induction by Mancozeb is marginal (<60%) after a few hours' exposure, but increases substantially (to almost 10-fold) after overnight exposure. In conjunction with our previous results using intermediate exposure periods, this suggests that the factor limiting reporter responses is likely to be a slow rate of uptake and/or metabolism of the fungicide. We confirm that a potentially toxic metabolite of dithiocarbamate fungicides, namely ethylenethiourea (ETU), has minimal toxicity toward C. elegans, even after prolonged exposure at high concentrations. We demonstrate that exposure to Mancozeb (but not ETU) significantly inhibits larval growth in C. elegans, although this parameter is not markedly more sensitive than reporter induction as a toxicological endpoint. Finally, we have used two-dimensional electrophoresis to show that high concentrations of both Maneb and Mancozeb drastically simplify the protein spot profile compared with controls. However, only in the latter case is there evidence of novel proteins being induced. Both fungicides appear toxic to C. elegans, but only Mancozeb induces a strong heat-shock response.
