Hydrocarbon exposure effect on energetic metabolism and immune response in Crassostrea virginica

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Water-Accommodated Fractions (WAF) of light oil components on the transcriptomic response of C. virginica, focused on critical processes such as energy metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammatory response so that we can establish guidelines for future assessments at the level of the coastal lagoons of the Gulf of Mexico
