微生物在镉污染土壤修复中的应用及其作用机理

土壤中镉（Cd）含量的超标导致了土壤生态系统的恶性发展,微生物作为土壤中的常见组分之一在缓解土壤镉污染中展现出巨大潜力。本文总结了微生物、微生物-植物和微生物-生物炭在镉污染土壤修复中的应用并阐述了相关的作用机理。芽孢杆菌（Bacillus）、不动杆菌（Acinetobacter）、荧光假单胞菌（Pseudomonas fluorescence）、丛枝菌根真菌（arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi,AMF）等微生物可以通过吸附、矿化、沉淀、溶解等方式改变镉的生物有效性,从而达到缓解镉污染的目的。pH值、温度、微生物生物量、镉初始浓度以及时间等对微生物降低镉的生物有效性方面有着显著的影响。假单胞菌、伯克霍尔德菌（Burkholderia）、黄杆菌（flavobacterium）等微生物可以通过促生、活化等作用促进超富集植物对Cd²⁺的吸收。生物炭作为一种土壤改良剂,其独有的理化性质可以作为微生物的庇护所。微生物-生物炭联合使用与单用生物炭相比可以进一步促进镉的残渣态的增加,降低土壤中有效态的比例。     

Nitric Oxide Enhances Salt Tolerance in Tomato Seedlings by Regulating Endogenous S-nitrosylation Levels

Salinity impairs plant growth and development, thereby leading to low yield and inferior quality of crops. Nitric oxide (NO) has emerged as an essential signaling molecule that is involved in regulating various physiological and biochemical processes in plants. In this study, tomato seedlings of Lycopersicum esculentum L. “Micro-Tom” treated with 150 mM sodium chloride (NaCl) conducted decreased plant height, total root length, and leaf area by 25.43%, 24.87%, and 33.67%, respectively. While nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) pretreatment ameliorated salt toxicity in a dose-dependent manner and 10 µM GSNO exhibited the most significant mitigation effect. It increased the plant height, total root length, and leaf area of tomato seedlings, which was 31.44%, 20.56%, and 51.21% higher than NaCl treatment alone, respectively. However, NO scavenger 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4, 4, 5, 5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide potassium (cPTIO) treatment reversed the positive effect of NO under salt stress, implying that NO is essential for the enhancement of salt tolerance. Additionally, NaCl?+?GSNO treatment effectively decreased O^2? production and H₂O₂ content, increased the levels of soluble sugar, glycinebetaine, proline, and chlorophyll, and enhanced the activities of antioxidant enzymes and the content of antioxidants in tomato seedlings in comparison with NaCl treatment, whereas NaCl?+?cPTIO treatment significantly reversed the effect of NO under salt stress. Moreover, we found that GSNO treatment increased endogenous NO content, S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) activity, GSNOR expression and total S-nitrosylated level, and decreased S-nitrosothiol (SNO) content under salt stress, implicating that S-nitrosylation might be involved in NO-enhanced salt tolerance in tomatoes. Altogether, these results suggest that NO confers salt tolerance in tomato seedlings probably by the promotion of photosynthesis and osmotic balance, the enhancement of antioxidant capability and the increase of protein S-nitrosylation levels.

     

定量分析调控人类免疫缺陷病毒潜伏与激活的动力学机制

目的 治疗艾滋病最大的障碍在于无法根除人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）潜伏于人体细胞所形成的病毒存储库。构建描述病毒存储库建立分子机制的动力学模型需考虑生物体内的噪声环境和多重影响因素,本文通过一种全新的动力学结构分解方法将随机微分方程的确定性部分与随机性噪声分开,从而在仅需分析常微分方程不动点的情况下即可判断不同药物靶点的作用效果。方法 使用连续的随机微分方程构建了HIV转录过程的动力学模型,简化了描述系统所需方程的维度,增大了模型的可探索空间,在此基础上,通过计算得到的势能函数和概率分布函数直观表示病毒潜伏与激活的不同表达状态以及它们之间的关系。结果 定量分析了不同动力学参数对系统稳态和势函数的影响程度,分别得到了系统处于双稳态和单稳态时的参数范围,并将不同因素对动力系统分岔的影响程度与生物学实验结果对比,验证了本工作的理论基础。结论 本文突破了以往离散、随机的方法,可以通过常微分方程定量分析HIV转录调控的动力学机制,有利于推广到处理高维情况,进一步研究艾滋病在生物体内的发生发展,从而指导设计实验寻找临床上的治疗方案。

目的 鼻咽癌是一种来源于鼻咽上皮的恶性肿瘤,其临床特征之一是易发生淋巴转移,但是目前鼻咽癌转移的分子机制尚未阐明。circPVT1是由PVT1基因2号外显子反向拼接形成的环状RNA (circRNA),在多种肿瘤中表达上调,本文探讨了circPVT1在鼻咽癌侵袭迁移中的作用和分子机制。方法 通过RT-qPCR检测circPVT1及其下游miRNA和FSCN1在鼻咽癌细胞的表达情况,Transwell和划痕愈合实验检测circPVT1对鼻咽癌细胞侵袭迁移的影响,RNA pull-down实验检测circPVT1结合的miRNA,双荧光素酶报告实验检测miR-24-3p和let-7a-5p靶向抑制FSCN1 mRNA表达。结果 在鼻咽癌细胞中过表达circPVT1可以促进鼻咽癌细胞侵袭迁移,而敲低circPVT1则可以抑制鼻咽癌细胞的侵袭迁移。进一步研究发现,circPVT1可以通过竞争性吸附miR-24-3p和let-7a-5p,上调FSCN1的表达,从而促进鼻咽癌细胞的侵袭迁移。结论 circPVT1通过miR-24-3p/let-7a-5p/FSCN1轴促进鼻咽癌细胞侵袭迁移,证实c...     

A new trick for an old dog: The application of mifepristone in the treatment of adenomyosis

Adenomyosis is also called internal endometriosis and affects about 20% of reproductive‐aged women. It seriously reduces life quality of patients because current drug therapies face with numerous challenges. Long‐term clinical application of mifepristone exhibits wonderful therapeutic effects with mild side‐effects in many disorders since 1982. Since adenomyosis is a refractory disease, we investigate whether mifepristone can be applied in the treatment of adenomyosis. In this study, we investigated the direct effects of mifepristone on human primary eutopic endometrial epithelial cells and stromal cells in adenomyosis. We found that mifepristone causes cell cycle arrest through inhibiting CDK1 and CDK2 expressions and induces cell apoptosis via the mitochondria‐dependent signalling pathway in endometrial epithelial cells and stromal cells of adenomyosis. Furthermore, mifepristone inhibits the migration of endometrial epithelial cells and stromal cells through decreasing CXCR4 expression and restricts the invasion of endometrial epithelial cells via suppression of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in adenomyosis. We also found that mifepristone treatment decreases the uterine volume, CA125 concentration and increases the haemoglobin concentration in serum for adenomyosis patients. Therefore, we demonstrate that mifepristone could serve as a novel therapeutic drug in the treatment of adenomyosis, and therefore, the old dog can do a new trick.
