研究大气CO2浓度升高对不同层次土壤有机碳(SOC)稳定性的影响对深入理解高浓度CO2下SOC转化具有重要意义.以FACE(Free Air Carbon-dioxide Enrichment)平台长期定位试验水稻土为研究对象,通过SOC物理分级及矿化培养试验,研究大气CO2浓度升高对稻田SOC含量、颗粒有机质(POM)含量、SOC矿化强度和酶活性变化的影响,探讨CO2浓度升高对不同层次稻田SOC稳定性的影响.结果表明:大气CO2浓度升高对表层SOC含量无显著影响,但使表层土壤POM-C显著增加了93.7%,同时使表层土壤蔗糖酶和多酚氧化酶活性分别提高了61.1%和83.7%,从而降低了表层SOC稳定性;大气CO2浓度升高对深层SOC含量及其稳定性均无显著影响.研究结果将有助于评估土壤固定和储备碳的能力,为今后温室效应下农田管理提供科学依据. 相似文献
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are highly proliferative and tumorigenic, which contributes to chemotherapy resistance and tumor occurrence. CSCs specific therapy may achieve excellent therapeutic effects, especially to the drug-resistant tumors.
Results
In this study, we developed a kind of targeting nanoparticle system based on cationic albumin functionalized with hyaluronic acid (HA) to target the CD44 overexpressed CSCs. All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) was encapsulated in the nanoparticles with ultrahigh encapsulation efficiency (EE%) of 93% and loading content of 8.37%. TEM analysis showed the nanoparticles were spherical, uniform-sized and surrounded by a coating layer consists of HA. Four weeks of continuously measurements of size, PDI and EE% revealed the high stability of nanoparticles. Thanks to HA conjugation on the surface, the resultant nanoparticles (HA-eNPs) demonstrated high affinity and specific binding to CD44-enriched B16F10 cells. In vivo imaging revealed that HA-eNPs can targeted accumulate in tumor-bearing lung of mouse. The cytotoxicity tests illustrated that ATRA-laden HA-eNPs possessed better killing ability to B16F10 cells than free drug or normal nanoparticles in the same dose, indicating its good targeting property. Moreover, HA-eNPs/ATRA treatment decreased side population of B16F10 cells significantly in vitro. Finally, tumor growth was significantly inhibited by HA-eNPs/ATRA in lung metastasis tumor mice.
Conclusions
These results demonstrate that the HA functionalized albumin nanoparticles is an efficient system for targeted delivery of antitumor drugs to eliminate the CSCs.
Lignin valorization can be obtained through cleavage of selected bonds by microbial enzymes, in which lignin is segregated from cellulose and hemicellulose and abundant phenolic compounds can be provided. In this study, Pseudomonas sp. Q18, previously isolated from rotten wood in China, was used to degrade alkali lignin and raw lignocellulosic material. Gel-permeation chromatography, field-emission scanning electron microscope, and GC–MS were combined to investigate the degradation process. The GC–MS results revealed that the quantities of aromatic compounds with phenol ring from lignin increased significantly after incubation with Pseudomonas sp. Q18, which indicated the degradation of lignin. According to the lignin-derived metabolite analysis, it was proposed that a DyP-type peroxidase (PmDyP) might exist in strain Q18. Thereafter, the gene of PmDyP was cloned and expressed, after which the recombinant PmDyP was purified and the enzymatic kinetics of PmDyP were assayed. According to results, PmDyP showed promising characteristics for lignocellulosic biodegradation in biorefinery. 相似文献
