Sex hormone levels were determined in whole tissue. Free-estradiol was only significantly elevated at the highest exposure dose (up to 10-fold). Most of the estradiol was in the tissues as fatty acid esters (>78%), which sharply increased in a dose-dependent manner (from 4 ng/g in controls to 258 ng/g at the high exposure group). In contrast, neither free nor esterified testosterone levels showed significant differences between control and exposure groups. The results suggest the existence of mechanisms that allow mussels to maintain their hormonal status, and the important role that fatty acid esterification may play within those mechanisms. Synthesis and conjugation rates of estradiol were further investigated by measuring the activity of P450 aromatase, and palmitoyl-CoA:estradiol acyltransferase, in digestive gland microsomal fractions. Overall, the study contributes to the better knowledge of molluscan endocrinology, and defines new mechanisms of regulation of free steroid-levels in mussels.Predoctoral fellowship from the Spanish Government and partial support from EU Project BEEP (ENVK3-CT-2000-00025).Peer reviewedElsevier200920092004info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_650122195 bytesapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10261/17645reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
