一、前言锌、铜、铁、锰是与人和动物的生命活动密切相关的微量元素。当这些元素过量时,人与动物会中毒;但这些元素缺乏时也会引起人和动物发生缺乏性的疾病。人与动物所需要的锌、铜、铁、锰主要来源于食物和饲料。粮食和蔬菜是人的食物和动物的饲料的重要组分。因此,测定粮食、蔬菜中的锌、铜、铁、锰的含量对研究人和动物的微量元素营养有着重要的意义。锌、铜、铁、锰也是植物生长发育必不可少的微量养分。近年来,随着科学研究的深入和发展,在缺乏这些微量元素的土壤上,这些  相似文献

锌(Zn)是生命体不可或缺的微量元素,对细菌和宿主同等重要。细菌体内锌离子稳态的维持依赖锌离子转运和调控体系。宿主通过限制锌离子或高锌离子中毒来控制细菌感染。为了在宿主体内生存,细菌必须表达高亲和力的锌离子转运系统,如ZnuABC,以获取足够的锌离子。由于锌与细菌大量的代谢和毒性通路密切相关,在细菌建立感染的过程中尤为重要,因此通过抑制锌离子转运系统来影响锌离子的稳态,将成为一个非常有发展前途的新型抗菌策略。  相似文献

微量元素如铁、锌、铜等对维持生物体代谢和健康至关重要,其含量失衡会造成代谢异常甚至死亡,因此生物体存在复杂机制维持这些微量元素的稳态代谢平衡(homeostasis)。近年来国际上一些实验室尝试用模式脊椎生物斑马鱼来开展该领域的研究,展示出斑马鱼的特有优势。特别是大规模正向遗传学筛选的成功开展,一系列微量元素代谢异常的突变体(如:weissherbst、chardonnay、chianti、shiraz、gavi、calamity和catastrophe)相继发现,为研究离子代谢调控机制和相关疾病的发病机理,提供了整体动态的活体模型。铁代谢相关基因加,2J和grx5都己在斑马鱼中成功定位克隆,斑马鱼铜载体基因atp7a突变体calamity的深入研究,进一步阐明了Menkes病的发病机理。利用斑马鱼的优势,结合小鼠模型和人群来研究微量元素的体内稳态代谢平衡将是微量元素代谢机制研究的新方向。  相似文献

The regulation of milk trace mineral homeostasis requires the temporal integration of three main processes, (A) mineral uptake into the secretory mammary epithelial cell (MEC); followed by (B) mineral secretion from MEC into the alveoli lumen of the mammary gland for sequestration in milk; and then (C) milk release in response to suckling. Trace mineral requirements of term infants are generally met by exclusive breast-feeding through about the first 6 months of life and although milk zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), and copper (Cu) concentrations are relatively refractory to maternal trace mineral status, they normally decline throughout lactation. Recently, Zn-, Fe- and Cu-specific transporters have been identified that regulate trace element uptake and efflux in various cell types; however, there is currently little information available regarding the processes through which the mammary gland regulates milk trace mineral transport. The homology of trace mineral transporters between species permits the utilization of rodent models to examine the regulation of mammary gland mineral transport. Therefore, we have used the lactating rat to determine changes in mammary gland Zn, Fe and Cu transporter expression and localization that occur throughout lactation and in response to maternal trace mineral deficiency in hope of elucidating some of the changes which occur during mammary gland trace element homeostasis and also may be occurring in lactating women.  相似文献

Trace elements play an important role in oxygen metabolism and therefore in the formation of free radicals. Whereas iron and copper are usually the main enhancers of free radical formation, other trace elements, such as zinc and selenium, protect against the harmful effects of these radicals. To investigate the different protective mechanisms of zinc on radical formation, we examined the effects of added zinc and copper on superoxide dismutase activity. We also studied the effects of copper and iron on xanthine oxidase activity and on the Haber-Weiss cycle (iron, superoxide, and hydrogen peroxide), which generates hydroxyl radicals in vitro. The hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase radical generating system contained a variety of different physiological ligands for binding the iron. This study confirmed the inhibitory effect of copper on xanthine oxidase activity. Moreover, it demonstrated that zinc inhibited hydroxyl radical formation when this formation was catalyzed by a citrate-iron complex in the hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase reaction. Finally, human blood plasma inhibited citrate-iron-dependent hydroxyl radical formation under the same conditions. Although trace elements seemed responsible for this antioxidant activity of plasma, it is likely that zinc played no role as a plasma antioxidant. Indeed, calcium appeared to be responsible for most of this effect under our experimental conditions.  相似文献

Newborn infants are exposed to widely varying intakes of trace elements, but little is known about their ability to homeostatically adjust to these intakes. Recent discoveries of several metal ion transporters in the small intestine are likely to enhance our understanding of molecular mechanisms regulating trace element absorption. Iron absorption is regulated by divalent metal ion transporter 1 (DMT1) and ferroportin 1 (FPN1). Studies on human infants have shown that young infants cannot regulate iron absorption, whereas older infants can. Our studies on infant rat pups show that there is no regulation of DMT1 and FPN1 at young age, but that this develops at older age. These findings may explain adverse effects of iron supplementation on growth in young human infants. Zinc absorption in the small intestine is regulated by the transporters ZnT1, ZnT2, ZnT4 and Zip-4 and zinc status affects the expression of these transporters in an attempt to achieve zinc homeostasis. Copper absorption is regulated by the transporters Ctrl, Atp7A and Atp7B, and exposure to copper at early age affects the expression and cellular localization of these proteins, affecting copper uptake and transport. To date, most studies on homeostatic regulation of trace mineral absorption have been done in cell systems and animal models; further studies on human infants are needed. The consequences of trace element interactions during infancy also need to be investigated in more detail.  相似文献

Transport characteristics of essential trace elements as zinc, copper, selenium and iron have been studied in maternal–fetal direction in normal pregnancies, using in vitro perfusion of human placental lobules. Solutions of trace elements corresponding to twice the physiological concentrations were injected (100 l bolus) into the maternal arterial perfusate. Serial perfusate samples were collected every 30 sec from venous outflows for a study period of 5 min. Concentrations of these trace elements and their transport kinetics were determined. Transport fractions (TF) of zinc, copper, selenium and iron averaged 0.21, 0.49, 0.55 and 0.10% of maternal load respectively. Other parameters such as area under the curve, clearance, elimination constant, absorption and elimination rates showed some significant differences between the various elements. Copper and selenium appear to be transported passively in maternal–fetal direction, while for iron and zinc, role of active transport for transfer across the human placental membrane cannot be discounted. We speculate that alterations in copper: zinc TR50 (transport rate for 50% efflux) and TF ratios could serve as useful indicators for assessing placental transport status of these essential elements in complicated pregnancy states.  相似文献

铁、铜、锌、锰等金属离子是各类生物体生存和增殖所必需的微量元素,可影响生物体内蛋白酶活性、免疫反应、生理过程和抗感染机制。细菌感染过程中,宿主可通过限制或提高体内环境中金属离子的浓度来抑制细菌增殖,与此同时,细菌进化出各种转运系统以适应宿主体内金属离子水平的变化。由于不同细菌的金属离子外排系统在结构和生化特性上存在变异,它们呈现出独特的金属离子外排模式。本文根据现有文献报道及本团队研究结果,对铁、铜、锌和锰离子的细菌外排系统进行讨论和总结,旨在综述目前对细菌金属离子稳态调控机制研究进展的认识,为深入理解细菌金属稳态调控相关机制提供参考。  相似文献

The concentration of trace elements in L-cells has been studied as a function of the trace metal content of the growth medium. Cells were cultured in synthetic media which contained varying trace amounts of the elements manganese, iron, cobalt, copper, zinc and molybdenum. The cellular concentration of the elements potassium, iron, copper and zinc were then determined. It was found that the cell accumulates trace metals at a different rate than they are made available. Deficiencies in zinc could be “induced” in the cell by increasing the concentration of iron, manganese and cobalt; cellular iron deficiencies were observed at larger medium concentrations of zinc, manganese, copper and cobalt. Trace metal uptake by the cell was seen to parallel the utilization by multicellular organisms.  相似文献

The origins of nutritional trace element deficiencies are summarized. Inadequate intake results in primary deficiency, whereas secondary or conditioned deficiencies can arise in several ways including trace element interactions. Evidence is presented and discussed for interactions of essential trace elements during prenatal and early postnatal development. Diets of widely different zinc and copper concentrations and ratios were fed to pregnant rats. Analysis of fetal outcome and copper and zinc concentrations of maternal and fetal livers showed that although there is an interaction between these metals it occurs only at levels of dietary copper deficiency. Iron and manganese interact so that high levels of one depress absorption of the other. Mice fed iron-supplemented diets had liver manganese concentrations lower than those of unsupplemented mice. Iron supplements at high but not low levels also depressed absorption of zinc. Conversely, zinc deficiency in pregnant rats caused higher than normal concentrations of iron in maternal and fetal liver. Trace element analyses of proprietary infant formulas indicate that in some, concentrations and ratios of these trace elements may be incorrect. The effects of essential trace element interactions during development should be further investigated. Caution is urged in considering levels of trace element supplements during pregnancy, lactation, or early childhood.  相似文献

Viral hepatic diseases, especially those induced by the hepatitis B virus, can progress into more serious pathological outcomes and eventually to hepatocellular carcinoma. A growing body of evidence indicates that many trace elements play important roles in a number of carcinogenic processes that proceed through various mechanisms. To examine the status of trace elements during the development of hepatic carcinoma, we determined the selenium, iron, copper, and zinc levels and copper-to-zinc ratios in the serum of patients at different stages of viral hepatic disease. We observed significant changes in the selenium, iron copper, and zinc levels in the serum of patients having hepatocellular carcinoma, relative to those of healthy controls (p<0.05). The mean serum copper level in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma was significantly higher than that of the control group. In contrast, the mean selenium, iron, and zinc levels in patients having hepatocellular carcinoma were significantly lower than those of the control group. In addition, the mean zinc level in the serum of patients with hepatic cirrhosis was significantly lower than that of the control group (p<0.05). Moreover, we found markedly elevated Cu: Zn ratios (p<0.05) in patients having hepatic cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Our findings imply that the levels of some trace elements, such as selenium, iron, copper, and zinc, and Cu:Zn ratios, might serve as biomarkers for the increased severity of viral hepatic damage.  相似文献

The interaction is reported of selected chemical elements (cadmium, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, strontium, and zinc) in cultured sea water, with soft tissues, prismatic calcite of the right valve, and foliated calcite of right and left valves of genetically similar American oysters, Crassostrea virginica (Gmelin) grown in a natural habitat and in two environmentally controlled experimental systems (flow-through and recycle). The addition of trace elements as algal nutrients in ambient sea water was reflected in higher concentrations of trace metals in shells and soft tissues of oysters grown in experimental systems. Calcium was relatively uniformly distributed in major regions of valves from the three habitats, even though its concentration fluctuated widely in sea water in experimental systems. Magnesium and strontium were most concentrated in valves of oysters grown in the recycle system (magnesium in the prismatic layer of the shell and strontium in the foliated calcite). Iron was uniformly distributed. Cadmium, copper, manganese, and zinc were most concentrated in the prismatic calcite of valves from the flow-through system. In soft tissues, calcium was more concentrated in oysters from experimental systems than in those from the natural habitat. Manganese was about equally distributed in soft tissues from the three habitats, whereas copper and iron were more concentrated in soft tissues in experimental systems than in the natural habitat, and were many times more concentrated in soft tissues than in valves from all three habitats. As concentrations of magnesium, strontium, mangenese, zinc, and cadmium increased in valves in experimental systems, pigmentation of valves decreased. The study confirmed the capacity of oysters to concentrate several elements in their valves as concentration of these elements increased in ambient sea water and disclosed the heterogeneous distribution of these elements in major regions of the valves.  相似文献

Changes in some trace minerals concentrations (calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, iron, copper, sodium and potassium) in blood plasma were investigated during a three-year period in Shetland pony mares. Blood plasma mineral concentrations were determined by the atomic absorption method and colorimetric method. The three-year averages were in micrograms/ml; Na 4630 +/- 168; K 277 +/- 3.8; Ca 171 +/- 3.8; P 31.5 +/- 0.74; Fe 1.92 +/- 0.14; Zn 1.07 +/- 0.04 and Cu 1.06 +/- 0.02. Two trace minerals (magnesium in inorganic phosphorus) showed only long-term tendency changes--upward or downward trends were not connected with the season. Most of the investigated minerals showed both a long-term change tendency and more or less marked seasonally related concentration changes, being higher during autumn or winter (zinc, sodium), or during spring and summer (calcium, copper, iron and potassium). Some interrelationships between particular trace mineral concentrations in blood plasma were also observed.  相似文献
