抗氧化系统在蜈蚣草细胞砷解毒机制中的作用

砷超富集植物——蜈蚣草体内可以富集高浓度的砷且不表现出受害症状,暗示蜈蚣草细胞具有较强的砷解毒机制.为探讨抗氧化系统在蜈蚣草砷解毒机制中的作用,测定了0、0.5、1和2mmol/L的砷酸盐[As(Ⅴ)]、亚砷酸盐[As(Ⅲ)]和二甲基胂酸盐(DMA)处理下蜈蚣草愈伤组织的丙二醛(Malonyldiadehyde,MDA)含量、非酶类抗氧化物质含量和酶类抗氧化物质的活性.结果表明,0.5mmol/L As(Ⅴ)和DMA就可以诱导氧化胁迫的产生,浓度越高胁迫程度也越严重.而1mmol/L的As(III)仍未使蜈蚣草愈伤组织产生氧化胁迫.在As(Ⅲ)处理下,酸溶性巯基含量增加,叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量不变,过氧化氢酶(Catalase,CAT)和过氧化物酶(Peroxidase,POD)活性增加.在As(Ⅴ)处理下,酸溶性巯基含量减少,叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量略有上升;CAT和POD活性先增加后减少.在DMA处理下,酸溶性巯基含量减少,叶绿素含量降低而类胡萝卜素含量增加,CAT和POD活性先增加后减少.与As(Ⅴ)和DMA相比,As(Ⅲ)处理下高酸溶性巯基含量、高氧化酶活性和低MDA含量暗示As(Ⅲ)对蜈蚣草的毒性可能比As(Ⅴ)和DMA要小.这些结果表明,酸溶性巯基和酶类抗氧化物质(CAT和POD)在蜈蚣草细胞砷解毒机制中发挥着重要作用.图4参22

砷浓度、形态及碳酸氢盐对蜈蚣草吸收砷的影响

为了探讨超富集植物蜈蚣草在处理高砷地下水方面的可行性,研究了水培条件下砷的浓度、形态和碳酸氢盐(HCO-3)对超富集植物蜈蚣草吸收砷的影响。实验中使用了浓度为0.1～100mg·L-1的As(III)和As(V)溶液。HCO-3处理中,HCO-3浓度范围为0.5～20mmol·L-1,As(III)或As(V)的浓度为5mg·L-1。结果表明,在水培条件下,蜈蚣草具有明显的耐高砷特征。当介质砷含量高达100mg·L-1时,砷的去除率可达到80%,且对As(III)的吸收效率高于As(V)。植物体内砷形态研究表明,蜈蚣草体内2种形态砷的含量与外源砷形态有一定的关系,As(V)处理条件下,植物体中的As(V)比例较As(III)处理高。高浓度的HCO-3(20mmol·L-1)处理对蜈蚣草地上部分生物量没有明显影响,但是抑制了地下部分的生长,并且对砷的吸收表现出明显的抑制作用。     

沉水植物对阿特拉津胁迫的毒理响应

为揭示在阿特拉津胁迫下沉水植物生长及其与谷胱甘肽代谢途径的关系,通过培养实验研究了沉水植物菹草(Potamogeton crispus)和穗花狐尾藻(Myriophyllum spicatum)对0、0.5、1.0和2.0 mg·kg~(-1)阿特拉津的吸收特性,并对不同培养时期沉水植物的鲜重、总谷胱甘肽含量(T-GSH,即还原型谷胱甘肽GSH和氧化型谷胱甘肽GSSG之和)、GSH/GSSG比值及其形态变化、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)活性和谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶(GST)活性进行了测定。结果表明:沉积物阿特拉津初始浓度越高,植物体内阿特拉津浓度也越高。在培养60 d内,添加的阿特拉津对2种沉水植物的生长均产生显著抑制作用(P0.05)。在阿特拉津胁迫60 d后,各处理植物体内GSH/GSSG比值有所回升,其GR和GST活性均高于空白对照组。处理组植物体内GR和GST活性在30 d时达到最高值。与此同时,GSH脱去谷氨酸后能与阿特拉津形成共轭物。以上结果提示,≤2 mg·kg~(-1)阿特拉津在培养前60 d内会对植物生长产生抑制,但在90 d时植物会从伤害中恢复过来。沉水植物体内的谷胱甘肽在GR和GST作用下,对阿特拉津及其产生的活性氧具有一定去除作用,并通过控制酶活使植物体保持一定的GSH含量;另一方面,GSH可以与阿特拉津结合形成新的共轭物,以此缓解阿特拉津对沉水植物的毒害。

汞和砷单一及联合暴露对日本沼虾的氧化应激效应

为深入探讨汞(Hg)和砷(As)对水生生物的慢性毒性效应,以日本沼虾(Macrobrachium nipponense)为受试生物,以超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、金属硫蛋白(MT)和丙二醛(MDA)为测试分子标志物,研究上覆水中不同浓度Hg和As单一及联合暴露对日本沼虾肝胰腺的氧化损伤及联合作用机制。结果表明:Hg和As单一及联合暴露对4种分子标志物均可产生不同程度的抑制或激活效应。其中,SOD活性均受到抑制,且高浓度As(1000μg·L-1)暴露10 d的抑制率最大,高达59.13%;而CAT活性整体被激活,Hg单独暴露下的激活效应要高于As,且在联合暴露组中随着暴露时间的增加呈现出显著的剂量效应关系(P0.05);MT和MDA含量在Hg和As的暴露下均显著增加(P0.05)。其中MT对Hg的螯合能力大于As,As单独暴露3 d后MDA变化较小,但10 d后其含量显著增加(P0.05)。析因方差分析发现,Hg-As对机体的联合作用机制主要表现为协同作用。综合生物标志物响应指数(IBR)评价证实,联合毒性要高于单独毒性,Hg与As在高浓度下联合暴露10 d的IBR值最大,毒性最强,高浓度As单独暴露处理组的毒性次之;同时,机体自身随暴露时间延长对Hg也表现出一定的解毒功能。     

苯并(a)芘对罗非鱼肝脏CYP1A1和GST活性的影响

以罗非鱼为试验动物,研究不同浓度(0.1、1、10和50μg·L-1)苯并(a)芘(BaP)暴露下,罗非鱼肝脏细胞色素P450亚酶1A1(CYP1A1)和谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶(GST)活性的变化。结果表明,0.1、1和10μg·L-13个浓度组罗非鱼肝脏CYP1A1活性与空白和丙酮溶剂对照组相比没有显著差异(P0.05),50μg·L-1浓度组CYP1A1活性在6和168 h时受到显著诱导(P0.05);0.1和1μg·L-1浓度组肝脏GST活性与空白和丙酮溶剂对照组相比无显著差异(P0.05),10和50μg·L-1浓度组GST活性在336 h时与空白和丙酮溶剂对照组相比差异显著(P0.05)。研究CYP1A1活性与GST活性之间的关系发现,两者的变化趋势相近,尤其是1和50μg·L-12个浓度组,表明这两者之间可能存在一定的对应关系。     

食物相暴露条件下尼罗罗非鱼对砷的累积与转化

为研究不同类型、不同营养级的生物对砷（As）的累积与转化作用,采用室内培养试验,选取杂食性淡水鱼类尼罗罗非鱼（Oreochromis niloticus）为研究对象,让其分别摄食暴露于1 mg·L^-1砷酸[As（V）]水溶液中15 d的浮水植物青萍（Lemna minor L.）、沉水植物轮叶黑藻（Hydrilla verticillate）、节肢动物日本沼虾（Macrobrachium nipponense）,研究不同食物相暴露条件下尼罗罗非鱼对砷的累积与转化作用.结果发现,动植物能吸收并累积水中的砷,且随着暴露时间的增加,其对含砷水环境有一定的适应性;尼罗罗非鱼摄食不同类型的食物之后,其肌肉组织中累积的砷含量不同,但总砷量与食物相中的浓度趋势一致,为投喂青萍组>投喂轮叶黑藻组>投喂日本沼虾组;当罗非鱼通过食物摄入砷,相较于一甲基砷酸（MMA）和二甲基砷酸（DMA）,As（V）更容易转化为亚砷酸[As（Ⅲ）],砷被蓄积与转化后主要以砷甜菜碱（AsB）的稳态形式存在;不同生物对砷的累积和转化方式不同,水生动物更易将无机砷甲基化为毒性较小的AsB;投喂日...     

三种磺胺类药物对罗非鱼肝脏组织中谷胱甘肽转移酶（GST）和丙二醛（MDA）的影响

研究磺胺嘧啶（sulfadianzine,SDZ）、磺胺二甲基嘧啶（sulfadimidine,SM2）和磺胺甲基异恶唑（sulfamethoxazole,SMZ）三种典型磺胺类抗生素对罗非鱼（Oreochromis niloticus）肝脏谷胱甘肽转移酶（GST）活性和丙二醛（MDA）含量的响应。采用饲料暴露的给药方式,用磺胺药物浓度为4和40g·kg-1的人工配合饲料喂养试验罗非鱼,对照组投喂不含磺胺药物的空白饲料。暴露时间为7d,每天2次投喂饲料,饲料的日投喂量按鱼体重的3%计,分别在24、72和168h采集肝脏样品待测。结果表明各浓度组GST和MDA分别在暴露后72和24h受到最大程度的诱导,其中GST活性比空白组提高了6.72倍,MDA含量比空白组提高了24.75倍。在4g·kg-1的药物浓度下SM2对GST和MDA有最强诱导,在40g·kg-1的药物浓度下三种药物对罗非鱼GST和MDA诱导效应大小顺序为SDZ〉SMZ〉SM2。GST和MDA在磺胺药物诱导下的响应敏感,适合作为磺胺类药物暴露的生物标记物。

通过室内静态模拟实验,研究苦草在不同浓度菲暴露10d后,菲在苦草中的富集以及菲对苦草茎叶中自由基含量、抗氧化系统等生理生化指标的影响.结果表明,苦草对菲的富集量和富集规律在根部和叶部存在较大差异,根和叶部的富集与暴露浓度有很好的剂量-效应关系;低浓度菲显著诱导产生自由基,自由基信号强度与过氧化物酶(POD)活性存在较好的正相关,均先升高后降低;谷胱甘肽系统是较敏感的生物指标,暴露组还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量被显著抑制,氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSSG)含量和谷胱甘肽S转移酶(GST)活性始终被诱导;脂质过氧化产物丙二醛(MDA)含量随菲浓度的升高而呈增加的趋势,表明菲暴露下苦草已经受到氧化损伤.图6参23     

三聚氰胺在罗非鱼肝脏内的累积及对EROD和GST活性的影响

以吉富罗非鱼（Oreochromis niloticus）作为研究对象，采用室内水族箱模拟水生态系统，研究了20 d试验期内，水体中初始质量浓度为0.05 g L-1的三聚氰胺在罗非鱼肝脏中的累积规律及不同暴露时间，对罗非鱼肝脏中7-乙氧基-异酚噁唑酮-脱乙基酶（EROD）和谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶（GST）活性的影响。结果表明：随着试验时间的延长，三聚氰胺在罗非鱼肝脏中的质量分数先迅速上升，在第2天高达4.15 mg·kg-1。随后逐渐下降，在第20天降至0.8 mg·kg-1，恢复到暴露初期水平。与对照组相比，罗非鱼肝脏中EROD和GST的活性在第1天被轻微诱导之后，分别在第2天和第4天开始被显著抑制，抑制率分别为50.7%和69.4%。随后两者的活性上升并分别在第7天和第10天开始被显著诱导，诱导率各为122.9%和47.7%。总体上看，EROD和GST的活性皆呈现出诱导-抑制-诱导的变化趋势。但在暴露结束时，这两种酶的活性又显著低于对照组，抑制率分别为34.1%和20.3%。结果显示，罗非鱼肝脏中EROD酶和GST酶，在一定程度上可作为水体中三聚氰胺污染的生物监测指标。     

Effect of arsenic species on the growth and arsenic accumulation in Cucumis sativus

The effects of arsenic (As) species, such as As(III), As(V) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), on the accumulation of As in cucumber (Cucumis sativus), as well as on its growth in a soil mesocosm were evaluated. When Cucumis sativus was cultivated in soils contaminated with 20 and 50 mg/kg of As(III), As(V) or DMA for 40 days, the growth was markedly inhibited by the inorganic As (As(III) and As(V)) rather than the organic As (DMA). Irrespective of the As species, the As concentrations accumulated in Cucumis sativus increased with increasing As concentration in the soil. The As bioaccumulation factors from soil into the tissue of Cucumis sativus were 17.5-35.4, 29.3-42.7 and 17.6-25.7 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively. In addition, the As translocation factors from the roots to shoots were 0.025-0.031, 0.018-0.032 and 0.014-0.026 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively. In conclusion, Cucumis sativus mainly accumulated As in its roots rather than its shoots and easily accumulated inorganic rather than organic As from the soil into its tissue.     

镉胁迫对不同镉富集能力海水养殖贝类抗氧化能力的影响——以扇贝和菲律宾蛤仔为例

为研究具有不同镉(Cd)富集能力的扇贝和菲律宾蛤仔在相同镉胁迫环境下的抗氧化能力反应的差异,将2种贝类于0.05mg·L-1Cd环境中暴露10 d,分别于第0天、2天、4天、6天、8天、10天分别取样检测内脏团中SOD、CAT、GPx、GST酶活性和GSH含量,同时分析内脏团中Cd的含量。结果表明,对于Cd胁迫组,扇贝和菲律宾蛤仔内脏团中SOD和CAT酶活反应相似,均呈先被诱导后被抑制的规律,且2种贝类的SOD和CAT活性差异较小。2种贝类内脏团中GSH含量、GST和GPx活性变化差异较大:扇贝内脏团中GSH含量显著降低(p0.05),GST和GPx活性均在第2天和第4天时处于显著诱导状态(p0.05),从第6天时处于抑制状态,而菲律宾蛤仔内脏团中GSH含量、GST和GPx活性在Cd暴露期间无显著变化,且2种贝类间比较,扇贝内脏团中GSH含量和GST活性在整个实验期间始终显著高于菲律宾蛤仔(p0.05),GPx活性从第4天开始高于菲律宾蛤仔;对于无镉污染的对照组,扇贝和菲律宾蛤仔内脏团中SOD、CAT和GPx活性无显著差异,但扇贝内脏团中GSH含量和GST活性显著高于菲律宾蛤仔,其中前者GSH含量约为后者的22倍。研究同时表明在相同镉环境下扇贝内脏团对Cd的富集浓度和富集速率均远高于菲律宾蛤仔。本研究明确了2种贝类在相同镉环境下的抗氧化反应的差异,推断出扇贝内脏团中高含量的GSH以及较高的GST和GPx活性可能在扇贝高富集、高耐受Cd方面起重要作用。     

Species distribution of arsenic in sediments after an unexpected emergent discharge of high-arsenic wastewater into a river

The unexpected emergent discharge of high-arsenic wastewater into water environments results in significantly increased levels of arsenic in water; however, the species distribution of arsenic in sediments has never been reported before for such cases. This study focuses on an As pollution accident in the Dasha River, and uses sequential extraction procedures with deionized water, 1?mol·L^-1 MgCl₂ at pH= 8, 1?mol·L^-1 NaH₂PO₄ at pH= 5, and 1?mol·L^-1 HCl to investigate four binding phases of arsenic (i.e., water soluble, ion-exchangeable, strongly-bound, and precipitates) in sediments at different layers in different cross-sections along the river. The average ratio of arsenite (As(III)) to arsenate (As(V)) was found to decrease from 0.74:1 in river water to 0.48:1 in sediment, owing to its higher affinity toward As(V) than As(III). The content of arsenic in the sediments was relatively low and the maximum content was observed to be 36.3?mg·kg^-1 for As(III) and 97.5?mg·kg^-1 for As(V). As(III) and As(V) showed different binding phases in sediments, and the average fractions of these four species were determined to be 0.09, 0.11, 0.17, and 0.63 for As(III) and 0.03, 0.14, 0.63, and 0.20 for As(V), respectively. For all the sediment samples, the content of arsenic showed no relationship with the characteristics of the sediments such as the particle diameter, the content of organic carbon, Fe, and Mn, although a negative correlation with particle diameter was observed for the sediments in the uppermost 2-cm layer. The unexpected emergent As incident results in the high content of total arsenic in the surface sediment, which may be potential secondary source to the elevated As levels in surface water.     

栀子中京尼平甙对CCl4急性小鼠肝损伤保护作用的生化机理研究

预先给小鼠灌胃不同剂量的京尼平甙后,以四氯化碳造模,通过测定小鼠血清中丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)、天氡氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)以及肝脏内GSH的含量并制作组织病理切片,研究了京尼平甙对四氯化碳肝损伤小鼠的保护作用,结果表明,京尼平甙能抑制四氯化碳肝中毒小鼠血清中ALT和AST的活性以及增加肝脏内GSH的含量.然后研究了京尼平甙对正常小鼠肝微粒体内细胞色素P4502E1和细胞色素P4503A活性的影响以及肝脏内谷胱甘肽(GSH)系统的影响,表明京尼平甙对正常小鼠肝微粒体内CYP4502E1具有明显的抑制作用,并能增强肝脏内谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)以及谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶活性.以上3个酶与自由基形成以及清除有关.图1表3参16     

Effects of arsenic on osmoregulation in the tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus reared in seawater

The effects of arsenic (As₂O₃) on plasma osmolarity, Na and K concentrations, the activity of gill Na–K-ATPase, and on the ultrastructure of gill chloride cells were compared between seawater tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) and freshwater tilapia in the Institute of Zoology, Academia Sinica, between 1989 and 1991. Arsenic was found to be more lethal in seawater tilapia [96 h LC₅₀ (median lethal concentration): 26.5 ppm] than in freshwater ones (71.7 ppm). No significant effect was found on plasma ion concentrations and osmolarity, enzyme activity or the ultrastructure of chloride cells in freshwater tilapia after 96 h exposure to 70 ppm arsenic. In contrast, 96 h exposure to 15 ppm arsenic caused evident effects in seawater tilapia: an increase in plasma osmolarity and activity of gill Na–K-ATPase, as well as better development of the chloride cell tubular system. These data suggest that the lethal effect of arsenic may be partially attributed to a hydromineral disturbance in seawater tilapia, but in freshwater tilapia arsenic perhaps causes destruction in some physiological mechanisms other than osmoregulation. The activation of gill Na–K-ATPase and chloride cells in seawater tilapia appears to indicate an adaptation in the osmoregulatory mechanism to arsenic exposure, i.e., to enhance secreting ions or arsenic in the gills.     

Cellular metabolism of arsenic studied in mammalian cellsin vitro

The cytotoxicity of trivalent and pentavalent inorganic arsenic was studied in cultured mouse fibroblasts. Concentrations of As(III) in the M range and approximately 10-fold higher concentrations of As(V) led to a reduction of cellular proliferation and viability with a concomitant increase of LDH release and stimulation of lactate production. Cells pretreated with a low As(III) concentration were less sensitive to toxic doses of As(III) or As(V).Uptake of As(III) by the cells was greater than that of As(V). Both forms of inorganic arsenic were converted intracellularly to monomethylarsonic (MMA) and dimethylarsinic (DMA) acids, which were subsequently released into the culture medium. In As-pretreated cells, which proved more resistant to As toxicity, biotransformation of inorganic to MMA and DMA was increased.     

Effect of arsenic species on the growth and arsenic accumulation in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Cucumis sativus</Emphasis>

The effects of arsenic (As) species, such as As(III), As(V) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), on the accumulation of As in cucumber (Cucumis sativus), as well as on its growth in a soil mesocosm were evaluated. When Cucumis sativus was cultivated in soils contaminated with 20 and 50 mg/kg of As(III), As(V) or DMA for 40 days, the growth was markedly inhibited by the inorganic As (As(III) and As(V)) rather than the organic As (DMA). Irrespective of the As species, the As concentrations accumulated in Cucumis sativus increased with increasing As concentration in the soil. The As bioaccumulation factors from soil into the tissue of Cucumis sativus were 17.5–35.4, 29.3–42.7 and 17.6–25.7 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively. In addition, the As translocation factors from the roots to shoots were 0.025–0.031, 0.018–0.032 and 0.014–0.026 for As(III), As(V) and DMA, respectively. In conclusion, Cucumis sativus mainly accumulated As in its roots rather than its shoots and easily accumulated inorganic rather than organic As from the soil into its tissue.
