          Abstract

          Los niveles de cadmio se han incrementado en el Golfo de México, esto representa un riesgo potencial para la sobrevivencia del ostión Crassostrea virginica y sus consumidores, por lo que es importante evaluar los efectos del cadmio a través de los cambios histopatológicos derivados de la exposición a este metal y durante su depuración. Se analizaron ostiones expuestos a 100 µg/l de cadmio por 72 h y depurados por 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216 y 230 h. Las muestras de ostión fueron incluidas en parafina, cortadas en microtomo y teñidas con la técnica de Hematoxilina-Eosina. El análisis histopatológico del esófago, intestino, glándula digestiva, branquia y manto mostró lesiones inflamatorias y la activación celular que incluye, células cafés y hemocitos como un mecanismo de desintoxicación. Los tejidos conjuntivos cercanos a esófago, intestino y glándula digestiva presentaron más células cafés y hemocitos que la branquia y el manto. Los cambios histopatológicos no fueron reversibles en 230 h, a pesar de que hay recuperación de los epitelios de la glándula digestiva. Este trabajo recomienda la evaluación histopatológica en la glándula digestiva para determinar el estado fisiológico del ostión y tomar medidas preventivas en la comercialización y cultivo de sus poblaciones naturales.

          Cadmium levels had increased in the Gulf of Mexico, this represents a potential risk for the survival of oyster Crassostrea virginica and for those who eat them, so it is important to evaluate the effects of cadmium trough histopathological changes derived from the exposition to this metal and during its depuration. Oysters exposed to 100 µg/l of cadmium for 72 h and depurated by 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, and 230 h were analyzed. Samples of oysters were included in paraffin, cutted in a microtome and stained following the Hematoxilin-Eosin technique. Histopathological analysis of oesophagus, intestine, digestive diverticulum, gills and mantle, showed inflammatory lesions and cell activation, including brown cells and haemocytes as a detoxification mechanism. The conjunctive tissue next to oesophagus, intestine and digestive diverticulum presented more brown cells and haemocytes than gills and mantle. Histopathological damage was not reversible in 230 h, although there was a recovery in epitheliums of digestive diverticulum. This work recommends the histopathological evaluation of digestive diverticulum to determine the physiological state of oysters and to take preventive measures in the commercialization and culture of their natural populations.
