Oxidative stress mechanisms induced by heavy metals and pesticides in fish
شماره ركورد

Abstract
Aquatic organisms are exposed to significant amounts of heavy metals and pesticides due to many anthropogenic activities, particularly industrial and agricultural. Heavy metal and pesticide accumulation may cause an increase in Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) leading to oxidative stress in fish. These environmental toxicants can promote oxidative damage by directly increasing the cellular concentration of ROS and by reducing the cellular antioxidant capacity. This paper reviews the studies on effects of heavy metals and pesticides exposure on the oxidative stress biomarkers and antioxidant defenses of fish.
