Toluene diisocyanates (2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI) are important intermediates in the chemical industry. Among the main damages after low levels of TDI exposure are lung sensitization and asthma. It is therefore necessary to have sensitive and specific methods to monitor isocyanate exposure of workers. Urinary metabolites or protein adducts have been used as biomarkers in workers exposed to TDI. However, with these methods it was not possible to determine if the biomarkers result from exposure to TDI or to the corresponding toluene diamines (TDA). This work presents a new procedure for the determination of isocyanate-specific albumin adducts. Isotope dilution mass spectrometry was used to measure the adducts in albumin present in workers exposed to TDI. 2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI formed adducts with lysine: N?-[({3-amino-4-methylphenyl}amino)carbonyl]-lysine, N?-[({5-amino-2-methylphenyl}amino)carbonyl]-lysine, and N?- [({3-amino-2-methylphenyl}amino)carbonyl]-lysine. In future studies, this new method can be applied to measure TDI-exposures in workers. 相似文献

Occupational exposure to diisocyanates within the plastic industry causes irritation and disorders in the airway. The aim of this study was to develop, validate and characterize a method for the determination of 2,4-toluenediamine (2,4-TDA), 2,6-toluenediamine (2,6-TDA), 1,5-diaminonaphthalene (1,5-NDA) and 4,4′-methylenedianiline (4,4′-MDA) in hydrolysed urine and plasma, and to study the correlation between the plasma and urinary levels of these potential biomarkers of 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI), 2,6-toluene diisocyanate (2,6-TDI), 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (1,5-NDI) and 4,4′-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (4,4′-MDI), respectively. Samples were hydrolysed with 0.3 M NaOH at 100°C for 24 h. The diamines were extracted, derivatized with pentafluoropropionic acid anhydride, and quantified by selected ion monitoring on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The repeatability and reproducibility of the method were 7-18% and 7-19%, respectively. Dialysis experiments showed that the metabolites of 2,4-TDI, 2,6-TDI, 1,5-NDI and 4,4′-MDI in plasma were exclusively protein adducts. No free diamines were found in urine, indicating that all diisocyanate-related metabolites were in a conjugated form. For each diisocyanate-related biomarker, there were strongly significant correlations (p<0.001) between individual levels of metabolites in plasma and urine, with Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rs) values of 0.74-0.90. The methods presented here will be valuable for the development of biological monitoring methods for diisocyanates. 相似文献

The U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) conducted 2-year bioassays of commercial grade toluene diisocyanate (TDI) (80% 2,4-TDI and 20% 2,6-TDI) and 2,4-toluene diamine (TDA) and concluded that both were carcinogenic in rodents. In the TDI study, there was an unproven but likely formation of TDA either because of flawed test-substance handling and storage conditions and/or the atypical exposure conditions employed. Although the carcinogenic responses in both studies were qualitatively similar, several statistical analyses were performed to substantiate this possibility more rigorously. Seven different statistical approaches combine to yield a robust and consistent conclusion that, if only a small fraction (approximately 5%) of the dose of TDI were hydrolyzed to TDA in the TDI study, then that would be sufficient to explain the observed carcinogenic responses in the TDI study. 相似文献

Background
Airway remodeling is a proposed mechanism that underlies the persistent loss of lung function associated with childhood asthma. Previous studies have demonstrated that human lung fibroblasts (HLFs) co-cultured with primary human bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) from asthmatic children exhibit greater expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) components compared to co-culture with BECs derived from healthy children. Myofibroblasts represent a population of differentiated fibroblasts that have greater synthetic activity. We hypothesized co-culture with asthmatic BECs would lead to greater fibroblast to myofibroblast transition (FMT) compared to co-culture with healthy BECs.Methods
BECs were obtained from well-characterized asthmatic and healthy children and were proliferated and differentiated at an air-liquid interface (ALI). BEC-ALI cultures were co-cultured with HLFs for 96 hours. RT-PCR was performed in HLFs for alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and flow cytometry was used to assay for α-SMA antibody labeling of HLFs. RT-PCR was also preformed for the expression of tropomyosin-I as an additional marker of myofibroblast phenotype. In separate experiments, we investigated the role of TGFβ2 in BEC-HLF co-cultures using monoclonal antibody inhibition.Results
Expression of α-SMA by HLFs alone was greater than by HLFs co-cultured with healthy BECs, but not different than α-SMA expression by HLFs co-cultured with asthmatic BECs. Flow cytometry also revealed significantly less α-SMA expression by healthy co-co-cultures compared to asthmatic co-cultures or HLF alone. Monoclonal antibody inhibition of TGFβ2 led to similar expression of α-SMA between healthy and asthmatic BEC-HLF co-cultures. Expression of topomyosin-I was also significantly increased in HLF co-cultured with asthmatic BECs compared to healthy BEC-HLF co-cultures or HLF cultured alone.Conclusion
These findings suggest dysregulation of FMT in HLF co-cultured with asthmatic as compared to healthy BECs. Our results suggest TGFβ2 may be involved in the differential regulation of FMT by asthmatic BECs. These findings further illustrate the importance of BEC-HLF cross-talk in asthmatic airway remodeling. 相似文献7.

An efficient plant regeneration system was developed from isolated protoplasts of Echinacea purpurea L. using an alginate block/liquid culture system. Viable protoplasts could be routinely isolated from young leaves of Echinacea seedlings in an isolation mixture containing 1.0% cellulase Onozuka R-10, 0.5% pectinase and 0.3 mol l–1 mannitol. Purified protoplasts were embedded in 0.6% Na-alginate block at a density of 1 × 105/ml and cultured in a modified MS medium containing 0.3 mol l–1 sucrose, 2.5 µmol l–1 BA and 5.0 µmol l–1 2,4-D. Cell colonies were observed after 4 weeks of culture, and the protoplast-derived colonies formed calluses when transferred onto 0.25% gellan gum-solidified MS medium supplemented with 1.0 µmol l–1 BA and 2.0 µmol l–1 IBA. Shoot organogenesis from protoplast-derived callus was induced on MS medium supplemented with 5.0 µmol l–1 BA and 2.0 µmol l–1 IBA. Complete plantlets were obtained from the regenerated shoots on MS basal medium. The protoplast to plant regeneration protocol developed in this study provides the prerequisite for creating novel genotypes of this valuable medicinal species through genetic manipulation. 相似文献

The long preservation and recovery of functional (contractile) properties in cultured aortic smooth muscle cells, even after replating or deep-frozen storage and the measurement of their responses are now technically settled issues. We could thus study extensively the responses of single cultured cells from rat thoracic aorta. Responses were elicited by the addition of KCl 40 mmol/L without or with a calcium blocker PN 200-100 (10–6 mol/L); angiostein II (10–11–10–6 mol/L) without or with antagonist (losartan 10–5 mol/L); or serotonin (10–9–10–4 mol/L) without or with antagonist (naftidrofuryl 10–5 mol/L). Results thus obtained enabled us to propose a new hypothesis for the interpretation of the contractile responses of an elastic vascular smooth muscle. The different maximal effects of different agonists result mainly from the different proportions of cells they can mobilize; the agonist concentration-contraction relationship is mainly due to the increase of the proportion of cells involved up to a maximal value typical of the agonist used. An antagonist primarily reduce the proportion of cells an agonist can mobilize. Some of the consequences of this hypothesis are briefly outlined. 相似文献

Summary Detailed examination of binding over the range 10-7–10-6 M suggests that membrane preparations from coleoptiles of Zea mays L., cv Kelvedon 33 contain at least two sets of high affinity binding sites for 1-naphthylacetic acid (NAA), with dissociation constants of 1.8×10-7 M (site 1) and 14.5×10-7 M (site 2). Similar studies with 3-indolylacetic acid (IAA) also indicate two sets of binding sites, whose concentrations are closely comparable to those deduced for NAA. A substantial proportion of the total binding activity is retained in a detergent-solubilized preparation. Using [14C]NAA the interactions of a range of analogues with each of the binding sites have been examined with the aid of double reciprocal plots. The specificity of site 2 is compatible with that expected for an auxin receptor, in that only active auxins, antiauxin transport inhibitors are able to compete with [14C]NAA for the binding sites. Site 1 on the other hand is less specific, since it appears to bind all compounds tested, including physiologically inactive analogues.Abbreviations NAA

Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and 4,4'-methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), used in the production of polyurethane foam, are well known for their irritating and sensitizing properties. Contradictory results have been obtained on their genotoxicity. We investigated the genotoxicity and protein binding of inhaled TDI and MDI in mice by examining micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (PCEs) in bone marrow and peripheral blood and TDI- and MDI-derived adducts in hemoglobin. Male C57Bl/6J mice (8 per group) were exposed head-only to TDI vapour (mean concentrations 1.1, 1.5, and 2.4mg/m(3); the mixture of isomers contained, on the average, 63% 2,4-TDI and 37% 2,6-TDI) or MDI aerosol (mean concentrations 10.7, 20.9 and 23.3mg/m(3)), during 1h/day for 5 consecutive days. Bone marrow and peripheral blood were collected 24h after the last exposure. Inhalation of TDI caused sensory irritation (SI) in the upper respiratory tract, and cumulative effects were observed at the highest exposure level. Inhalation of MDI produced SI and airflow limitation, and influx of inflammatory cells into the lungs. Hemoglobin adducts detected in the exposed mice resulted from direct binding to globin of 2,4- and 2,6-TDI and MDI, and dose-dependent increases were observed especially for 2,4-TDI-derived adducts. Adducts originating from the diamines of TDI (toluene diamine) or MDI (methylene dianiline) were not observed. No significant increase in the frequency of micronucleated PCEs was detected in the bone marrow or peripheral blood of the mice exposed to TDI or MDI. The ratio of PCEs and normochromatic erythrocytes (NCEs) was reduced at the highest concentration of MDI, and a slight reduction of the PCE/NCE ratio, dependent on cumulative inhaled dose, was also seen with TDI. Our results indicate that inhalation of TDI or MDI (1h/day for 5 days), at levels that induce toxic effects and formation of TDI- or MDI-specific adducts in hemoglobin, does not have detectable genotoxic effects in mice, as studied with the micronucleus assay. 相似文献

The insoluble fraction of ox-brain, which had previously been shown to have a non-linear affinity for Na+ and K+, was prepared. Acetylcholine (1×10–8 mol/l and 1×10–7 mol/l) reduced the affinity of the fraction for Na+ and K+ to zero, while at 1×10–6 mol/l, the affinity for the cations was almost as high as in the absence of the transmitter; the affinities for Na+ and K+ were particularly high, when the supernatant concentrations of these ions exceeded 80–100 mM. Addition of eserine (3×10–5 mol/l) considerably modified the response of the fraction to acetylcholine (1×10–5 mol/l). Atropine (1×10–8 mol/l) in the absence or presence of acetylcholine (1×10–5, or 1×10–4 mol/l) reduced the affinity of the fraction for Na+ and K+ to zero. Epinephrine (3×10–10 mol/l) lowered the affinity for Na+ and K+, while ergotamine itself (1×10–5 mol/l) reduced it to zero. The addition of both epinephrine and ergotamine at the latter concentrations restored the affinity of the fractions for Na+ and K+ to what it had been in the absence of the transmitter or antagonist, previously reported. Norepinephrine (3×10–10 mol/l), or ouabain (1×10–7 mol/l) reduced the affinity of the fraction for Na+ and K+ to zero. Thus, the transmitters and antagonists altered the affinity of the insoluble fraction for Na+ and K+ nonlinearity, dependent upon their concentrations, the concentrations of the cations, and the interaction of transmitter and antagonist. 相似文献

Three Indian cultivars ofL. esculentum were assessed for shoot regeneration from protoplast-derived calli. Consistent yields of viable protoplasts (>9.0×106 g f.wt.-1) were obtained from leaflets of 14 days old cultured shoots. Protoplast viability (88–94%) and planting efficiency (55–70%) were recorded for the three cultivars. Up to 71% of the protoplast-derived tissues regenerated shoots.Abbreviations BAP

Cotyledons from immature embryos of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) cv. Osceola were exposed to 2,4-D or NAA to induce somatic embryogenesis. NAA at 10 or 20 mg 1–1 was very inefficient at stimulating embryogenesis, while concentrations of 30 or 40 mg 1–1 resulted in death of the explant tissue. Continuous exposure of cotyledons to 40 mg 1–1 2,4-D resulted in somatic embryos which were arrested at the globular stage, or which underwent cycles of secondary embryogenesis, never proceeding beyond the globular stage. A 10 day exposure time to 2,4-D at the same concentration led to formation of somatic embryos, most of which had poorly developed cotyledons. Almost 10% of the somatic embryos converted into plants following transfer to medium devoid of growth regulators. Attempts to improve morphology of somatic embryos by using shorter exposure times to 2,4-D at 40 mg 1–1, or by maintaining the 10 day exposure time while varying the concentration of 2,4-D, were not successful. Plants were obtained from all parents evaluated, although at different frequencies. 相似文献

The growth of embryos and development to plantlets on woody plant medium supplemented with indole-3-acetic acid 6.10-2 mol l–1, gibberellic acid (GA3) 3.10-2 mol l–1, and 6-benzylaminopurine (BA) 2 mol l–1 was obtained. Multiplication of shoots and rooting of excised shoots has been achieved. Callus formation on modified Murashige-Skoog medium supplemented with 1-naphthaleneacetic acid 10 mol l–1, GA3 14 mol l–1, and kinetin 5 mol l–1 on hypocotyls, or on root cultures on medium supplemented with 2.4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid 10 mol l–1 and BA 10 mol l–1 was induced.Abbreviations BA

The peptide mastoparan from wasp venom and the peptide melittin from bee venom stimulated growth in etiolated zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.) hypocotyls. Both peptides were only effective in hypocotyls with abraded cuticles. At concentrations of 2 g ml–1 peptide growth was stimulated 72% by mastoparan and 50% by melittin after 2 h as compared to the controls. Mastoparan (5 g ml–1), melittin (10 g l–1) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (5×10–4 M) stimulated accumulation of 14C-choline-labeled lysophosphatidylcholine in less than 10 min in cultured soybean cells (Glycine max L.), all to about the same extent. The effects of these peptides are among the first to be reported on plant cells and may be related to important events coupled to growth stimulation.Abbreviations 2,4-D

Summary Friable calli and cell suspension cultures were obtained from leaf segments ofEuphorbia characias L. subsp.characias, in Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 1g.l–1 casein hydrolyzate (CH), 5mg.l–1 ascorbic acid, 1.0mg.l–1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.75mg.l–1 benzyl adenine (BA). The highest callus specific growth rate (=0.085.day–1), calculated for 1 year old calli cultures, was obtained with 0.25 mg.l–1 2,4-D and 0.50mg.l–1 BA. Suspension cultures started with an inoculum of 8.0×104 cells.ml–1 in supplemented liquid MS medium, gave a specific growth rate =0.256.day–1. 相似文献

Investigations were undertaken to achieve rapid multiplication and improvement of Origanum vulgare (a herbaceous, ornamental plant well known for its aromatic and medicinal value) through plant regeneration from callus. The explants (cotyledons, hypocotyl and root segments) excised from 15 d old aseptic seedlings were cultured on Gamborg's B5 medium supplemented with 2,4-D, NAA and BAP individually and in various combinations (at concentrations of 0,10–7,10–6 and 10–5 M). Best callus induction was noted on medium with 10–7 M 2,4-D alone. The cotyledonary expiants proved to be the best source for compact and nodulated callus. The subcultured cotyledonary calli showed shoot induction when transferred onto media supplemented with BAP alone orin combination with 10–7M or 10–6MNAA. However, 10–5M NAA completely suppressed the shoot inducing ability of BAP. In general, NAA promoted root induction from all explants used including cotyledonary callus. Best shoot induction was obtained on medium supplemented with 10–6M BAP+10–6MNAA. Both IBA and NAA at 10–6 M proved to be equally effective in induction of roots from the cut ends of 15–20 mm long shoots (excised from callus) in half-strength B5 liquid medium. Rooted shoots were successfully re-established in soil under controlled conditions.Abbreviations 2,4-D

Protoplasts were isolated from fast-growing embryogenic suspension cultures of red fescue cv. Dawson (Festuca rubra L.) without agitation. The enzyme isolation solution was highly efficient at releasing protoplasts of greater than 95% viability (5×106–107 protoplasts per ml of packed cell volume). A three step procedure was followed for washing and transferring protoplasts from a solution high in inorganic salts to a medium containing glucose and sucrose. The addition of 30 mM sodium thiosulfate to the wash and culture media was found to be helpful in reducing the number of lysed protoplasts. Isolated protoplasts began to divide within 48–72 h when protoplasts were plated in agarose squares and surrounded by nurse cells (mixed nurse plating technique). Maximum colony formation (plating efficiency) was approximately 1%. Many of the colonies continued to grow and produced embryos when transferred to a medium consisting of half-strength MS salts, 4 mg/l 2,4-D, 3 g/l casein hydrolysate and 30 g/l sucrose. Upon transfer to hormone-free medium and exposure to light 16 h/day, many of the embryos germinated to produce green leaves and roots.Abbreviations BA

Summary A study was made of the effects of the herbicides 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and MCPA (4-chloro-2-methyl-phenoxyacetic acid) on ion uptake, leakage and growth of rice seedlings. Using isotopically-labelled solutions containing different concentrations of 2,4-D or MCPA, it was established that 10–4
M 2,4-D or MCPA effectively inhibited potassium ion uptake, while K-ion leakage from the roots occurred only at 10–3
M. The growth of the rice seedlings was markedly retarded even at low (10–6
M) concentrations, and the roots and shoots showed different tolerances to the herbicide. At 10–8
M herbicide, the effects were not injurious, but rather favourable. Reduction in root length by herbicides was not in accordance with dry-matter production. 相似文献

Leaf mesophyll protoplasts ofDianthus superbus were cultured at a density of 5 × 104 protoplasts/ml and divided at about 18% plating efficiency in MS liquid medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BAP, 2.0 mg/L NAA and 9% mannitol after 2 weeks. Protocolonies formed after 3 to 4 weeks of culture in the dark at 27°C. These colonies were transferred to continuous illumination (21.5 E m–2 sec–1) for 2 weeks where most of the colonies divided to form microcalli, about 2 mm in diameter. Subsequently, green microcalli were transferred to MS solidified medium with 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D that induced shoot-forming calli after 4 weeks. These calli were transferred onto N6-2 medium containing 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.1 mg/L NAA, 2.0 mg/L kinetin and 2.0 g/L casein hydrolysate and were cultured under light. After 5 weeks the calli gave rise to multiple shoots (10 to 15 per callus). Upon transfer to MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L NAA, individual shoots were rooted in 4 weeks. The regenerants were successfully transplanted into potting soil.Abbreviations MS
