Abstract This is the first study on the effect of heavy metals on ALP activity and COX-1 mRNA gene expression of haffara seabream (R. haffara) in Red Sea. The current comparative field study was performed between highly metal-polluted and less metal-polluted areas samples at northern of Suez Gulf in Egypt during winter and summer seasons; to evaluate the impact of heavy metal pollution on Cytochrome c oxidase (COX-1) mRNA expression and alkaline phosphatase enzymatic activity in Red Sea haffara seabream (Rhabdosargus haffara) liver tissues, in addition, to deduce the impact of heavy metals contamination on the enzymes alkaline phosphatase and urease in surficial sediments of the Gulf. |
