▎ 摘  要

The increased use of graphene oxide (GO) raises worrisome questions regarding its possible threat to various ecosystems. Invertebrates represent valuable organisms for environmental studies. The lifespan can influence the ability to cope with toxins, especially those that act via oxidative stress. Two strains of Acheta domesticus, which are selected for longevity, were tested. The main aim was to investigate how GO, when administrated in food, affects: the condition of cells, DNA stability, ROS generation and the reproduction potential (the Vitellogenin (Vg) protein expression). The "recovery effect" - after removing GO from the diet for 15 days - was also measured. The results revealed different responses to GO in the wild (H) and long-living (D) strains. The D strain had a higher catalase activity compared to the H strain on the 25th day of the imago stage. Removing GO from the food resulted in a decrease in the catalase activity to the level of the control. On the 5th day of the imago stage, the H strain had a higher cell mortality than the D strain in the GO-intoxicated groups. There was more DNA damage in the H strain compared to the long-living strain. A remedial effect was seen after the GO was removed from the diet. The total Vg protein expression was higher in the H strain and lower in the D strain. The results indicated a GO concentration-dependent outcome. In both strains, removing the GO from the food led to a high Vg expression. The Vg expression after GO treatment, particularly translation and post-translational processing, should be studied in detail in the future. The D strain of crickets had more specialized mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis than the H strain. Organisms can fight off negative effects of GO, especially when they have systems that are well developed against oxidative stress. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
