Bacterial Disproportionation of Elemental Sulfur Coupled to Chemical Reduction of Iron or Manganese

A new chemolithotrophic bacterial metabolism was discovered in anaerobic marine enrichment cultures. Cultures in defined medium with elemental sulfur (S⁰) and amorphous ferric hydroxide (FeOOH) as sole substrates showed intense formation of sulfate. Furthermore, precipitation of ferrous sulfide and pyrite was observed. The transformations were accompanied by growth of slightly curved, rod-shaped bacteria. The quantification of the products revealed that S⁰ was microbially disproportionated to sulfate and sulfide, as follows: 4S⁰ + 4H₂O → SO₄^2- + 3H₂S + 2H⁺. Subsequent chemical reactions between the formed sulfide and the added FeOOH led to the observed precipitation of iron sulfides. Sulfate and iron sulfides were also produced when FeOOH was replaced by FeCO₃. Further enrichment with manganese oxide, MnO₂, instead of FeOOH yielded stable cultures which formed sulfate during concomitant reduction of MnO₂ to Mn²⁺. Growth of small rod-shaped bacteria was observed. When incubated without MnO₂, the culture did not grow but produced small amounts of SO₄^2- and H₂S at a ratio of 1:3, indicating again a disproportionation of S⁰. The observed microbial disproportionation of S⁰ only proceeds significantly in the presence of sulfide-scavenging agents such as iron and manganese compounds. The population density of bacteria capable of S⁰ disproportionation in the presence of FeOOH or MnO₂ was high, > 10⁴ cm^-3 in coastal sediments. The metabolism offers an explanation for recent observations of anaerobic sulfide oxidation to sulfate in anoxic sediments.

RNF7 promotes glioma growth via the PI3K/AKT signalling axis

RNF7 has been reported to play critical roles in various cancers. However, the underlying mechanisms of RNF7 in glioma development remain largely unknown. Herein, the expression level of RNF7 was examined in tissues by quantitative real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. The effect of RNF7 on glioma progression was measured by performing CCK-8 and apoptosis assays, cell cycle-related experiments and animal experiments. The effect of RNF7 on PI3K/AKT signalling pathway was tested by Western blotting. First, we found that RNF7 was upregulated in tumour tissue compared with normal brain tissue, especially in high-grade glioma, and the high expression of RNF7 was significantly related to tumour size, Karnofsky Performance Scale score and a poor prognosis. Second, RNF7 overexpression facilitated tumour cell cycle progression and cell proliferation and suppressed apoptosis. Conversely, RNF7 knockdown suppressed tumour cell cycle progression and cell proliferation and facilitated apoptosis. Furthermore, follow-up mechanistic studies indicated that RNF7 could facilitate glioma cell proliferation and cell cycle progression and inhibit apoptosis by activating the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway. This study shows that RNF7 can clearly promote glioma cell proliferation by facilitating cell cycle progression and inhibiting apoptosis by activating the PI3K/AKT signalling pathway. Targeting the RNF7/PI3K/AKT axis may provide a new perspective on the prevention or treatment of glioma.

中国环境规制对旅游业碳排放强度影响的空间异质性

环境规制作为实现旅游低碳发展的重要动力之一,也是实现旅游业“碳达峰、碳中和”目标的有效路径。基于综合指数法和“自下而上”法,测度2005—2019年中国大陆30个省份(中国港澳台及西藏统计数据尚缺)的环境规制水平和旅游业碳排放强度,并借助面板回归模型和面板门槛模型探讨了环境规制对旅游业碳排放强度的影响及其区域异质性。结果表明：(1)研究期内,中国整体旅游业碳排放强度呈下降趋势;其中,中部地区下降趋势最为明显,其次分别为西部、东部和东北地区。(2)中国环境规制水平呈增长态势,其规制效应对胡焕庸线右侧的地区更为显著,并呈现出自东向西递减的梯度分布特征。(3)中国环境规制对旅游业碳排放强度存在明显的“倒逼减排”效应,但东北地区却存在一定的“绿色悖论”现象;环境规制对旅游业碳排放强度的影响存在单一阈值,当旅游能源强度小于阈值时,存在显著的“倒逼减排”效应,当旅游能源强度超过阈值时则存在“绿色悖论”效应。(4)东部地区环境规制未通过门槛效应检验;中部地区存在单个门槛值,环境规制有效促进旅游业碳排放强度的下降,不存在“绿色悖论”现象;西部和东北地区分别存在单、双门槛效应,环境规制对旅游业碳排放强度...     

春小麦对骤旱的响应特征及其阈值分析

与缓慢发展的干旱过程不同,骤旱具有发生速度快,短期内可致害的特点。目前,关于作物骤旱致害的临界阈值及其调控机制尚不清楚。以春小麦为供试作物,通过桶栽试验,模拟研究骤旱过程中小麦受旱致害的过程特征及其控制因素。结果发现,发生骤旱时土壤含水量下降呈先快后慢的变化趋势,叶片水分和叶水势则呈先慢后快的指数变化趋势。叶片光合生理指标对土壤水分的下降存在明显的阈值响应,且不同生理指标的阈值并不完全相同,其中净光合速率与表征叶片光合能力的指标（最大羧化速率）对土壤有效含水量的响应阈值为0.4,气孔导度和蒸腾速率对土壤有效含水量的响应阈值分别为0.5和0.4。而小麦光合生理指标对叶片水分和叶水势的阈值响应并不明显。同时依据各生理指标相关和通径分析结果得出,骤旱发生时引起小麦叶片净光合速率快速降低的主导因子为非气孔因素,而并不是以往作物受旱研究中的气孔因素。本研究结果有望丰富干旱影响认知,并可为科学应对干旱提供依据。
