多溴联苯醚对芳香烃受体的激活作用及其介导毒性的研究进展

多溴联苯醚(polybrominated diphenyl ethers,PBDEs)是一类全球广泛存在的有机污染物,由于具有环境持久性,远距离传输,生物可累积性及对生物和人体有毒害效应等特性,是当前环境科学的热点研究对象之一.PBDEs的毒性包括生殖毒性、神经毒性、内分泌干扰、DNA损伤、免疫影响等,对人类以及环境具有潜在的威胁.芳香烃受体(aryl hydrocarbon receptor,AhR)是一种配体激活转录因子,诱导许多编码药物代谢酶的基因,可以被二噁英强效激活并引发一系列毒性.PBDEs具有与二噁英相似的结构,而被认为是一种潜在的AhR配体,但是PBDEs通过AhR介导的毒性机理仍然不明确.本文介绍和讨论了近10多年来PBDEs对AhR激活作用的研究,以及诱导的基因表达和毒性效应.虽然各文献的研究手段以及结论不尽相同,大多数研究表明大部分PBDEs对AhR的激活效果较为微弱,但仍有些PBDE需要引起重视.例如,BDE-126在大鼠肝细胞中的激活作用比其同系物更为突出,BDE-99可以激活斑马鱼胚胎中的AhR.此外,大多数羟基化或甲氧基化多溴联苯醚在家禽胚胎肝细胞、大鼠肝癌细胞中可以激活AhR,且可能比PBDEs具有更高的毒性和生物积累性.

Photocatalytic degradation of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in pure water system

Due to the low water solubility of polybrominated diphenyl ethers, organic solvent is usually added into the oxidation system to enhance the removal efficiency. In this study the photocatalytic degradation of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE209), a type of polybrominated diphenyl ether used throughout the world, in pure water without the addition of organic solvent was investigated. In the pure water system, BDE209 was not dissolved but dispersed as nano-scale particles with a mean diameter of 166 nm. Most of BDE209 (>98%) were removed within 4 h and the final debromination ratio was greater than 80%. Although the addition of organic solvent (tetrahydrofuran, THF) could lead to a relatively high BDE209 degradation rate, the final debromination ratio (<50%) was much lower than that in pure water system. Major oxidation intermediates of tetrahydrofuran, including tetrahydro-2-furanol and γ-butyrolactone, were detected indicating the engagement of THF in the BDE209 degradation process. The photocatalytic degradation of BDE209 in the pure water system followed first-order kinetics. The BDE209 degradation rate constant increased from 0.0011 to 0.0023 min⁻¹ as the pH increased from 3 to 9.     

多溴联苯醚和全氟烷基酸的分子毒理机制研究

多溴联苯醚(PBDEs)和全氟烷基酸(PFAAs)是两类使用量大、环境污染广泛、人体暴露严重的新型有机污染物,2009年已纳入《斯德哥尔摩公约》持久性有机污染物(POPs)名单,但其毒性效应及作用机制并不明确.本文综述了本课题组近几年针对多溴联苯醚PBDEs和全氟烷基酸PFAAs的分子毒理机制研究工作,主要集中在这两类污染物对甲状腺系统、雌激素系统和肝脏脂肪酸代谢系统干扰效应的分子机制研究.本文分别从分子、细胞和活体三个层面,研究了污染物与核受体的直接结合作用、结合后受体的构象变化、细胞内受体的转录活性、以及活体暴露后受体调控基因的表达变化,由此阐明了污染物通过与受体直接作用导致细胞和活体生物功能改变的分子机制.同时结合计算模拟,探讨了污染物生物效应与其化学结构之间的关系,发现污染物的受体活性取决于它们与受体结合的空间构型,而其活性强度基本与二者的结合能力一致,主要受疏水作用和氢键的影响.此外,还通过研究污染物与天然配体转运蛋白的相互作用,明确了各个污染物与转运蛋白的结合能力,探讨了其构效关系,并评估了污染物对天然配体在体内转运过程的潜在干扰效应.通过上述研究工作,提出了多层面、多靶点研究环境污染物分子毒理机制的新思路,建立和引进了研究污染物与生物靶分子相互作用的新方法,发现了PBDEs、PFAAs与TR、ER、PPARγ核受体结合的新模式,为深入了解这些污染物的分子毒理机制提供了有用的信息和有效的研究手段.     

Distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers in soils of a previous E-waste processing center

Surface soil samples were taken from a previous electronic waste (E-waste) recycling centerin Taizhou area, Zhejiang province, China. Concentrations, profiles, and possible sources of 19 polychlorinated biphenyls and 7 poly-brominated diphenyl ethers were analyzed to assess their current state in the soil after phase out of massive dismantling of E-wastes. The concentrations of the 7 polybrominated diphenyl ethers ranged from 11 to 128 µg kg^?1 with an average of 41 ± 10 µg kg^?1 (dw), with 2,2′,4,4′-tetrabromdiphenyl ether being the most abundant. These values were substantially lower than the levels in 2006. The concentrations of the 19 polychlorinated biphenyls ranged from 36 to 760 µg kg^?1, with an average of 181 ± 68 µgkg^?1 (dw) which was also lower than the levels in 1995 or 2006. However, the concentrations of some tetra-, penta- and hexa-chlorobiphenyls were comparable or even higher than before. Furthermore, the average concentration of 7 indicator polychlorinated biphenyls was 108 ± 41 µg kg^?1(dw) which exceeded the New Dutch List target value of 20 µgkg^?1. Principal component analysis indicated that polychlorinated biphenyls were mainly distributed into three groups in accordance with the number of chlorine atoms and anthropogenic source. Therefore, the impact of the historical dismantling of E-wastes is still significant.     

Trophic transfer of polybrominated diphenyl ethers and polychlorinated biphenyls in a tidal freshwater marsh

The John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) at Tinicum Marsh contains one of the last remaining tidal freshwater marsh communities along the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware River Estuary. The marsh receives a significant load of nutrients and sediment-associated contaminants and is hypothesised to act as an effective trap for these chemicals. The goal of this study was to quantify the levels of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) at various trophic levels at two sites within Tinicum Marsh and assess the factors important in determining their bioaccumulation and trophic transfer. For both PCBs and PBDEs, lipid variation for all species was a large factor in determining contaminant body burden. Also, concentrations in biota increased with increasing trophic level as determined by nitrogen isotope analysis (δ¹⁵N values) at the downstream site within Tinicum Marsh. This trend was less apparent at the upstream site and may be due to differences in feeding behaviours among species between the two sites and/or differences in carbon and nitrogen sources and recycling. These data are valuable in assisting bioaccumulation/trophic transfer studies and serve as benchmarks to which future PCB and PBDE concentrations will be compared.

Removing polybrominated diphenyl ethers in pure water using Fe/Pd bimetallic nanoparticles

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been widely used as fire-retardants. Due to their high production volume, widespread usage, and environmental persistence, PBDEs have become ubiquitous contaminants in various environments.Nanoscale zero-valent iron (ZVI) is an effective reductant for many halogenated organic compounds. To enhance the degradation efficiency, ZVI/Palladium bimetallic nanoparticles (nZVI/Pd) were synthesized in this study to degrade decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE209) in water. Approximately 90% of BDE209 was rapidly removed by nZVI/Pd within 80 min, whereas about 25% of BDE209 was removed by nZVI. Degradation of BDE209 by nZVI/Pd fits pseudo-first-order kinetics. An increase in pH led to sharply decrease the rate of BDE209 degradation. The degradation rate constant in the treatment with initial pH at 9.0 was more than 6.8 × higher than that under pH 5.0. The degradation intermediates of BDE209 by nZVI/Pd were identified and the degradation pathways were hypothesized. Results from this study suggest that nZVI/Pd may be an effective tool for treating polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in water.

Persistent organochlorine pesticides,polychlorinated biphenyls,polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish from coastal waters off Savannah,GA, USA

Contamination profiles of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) were determined in six fish species from three selected regions along coastal waters off Savannah, GA, USA. Concentrations of PCBs were predominant (12–493 ng g^?1 lw) followed by PBDEs (10–337 ng g^?1 lw), OCPs such as DDTs (2.7–153 ng g^?1 lw), chlordanes (3.8–34 ng g^?1 lw), cyclodienes (<0.1–35 ng g^?1 lw), mirex (<0.1–8.6 ng g^?1 lw), γ-hexachlorocyclohexane (<0.1–1.4 ng g^?1 lw), and hexachlorobenzene (<0.1–0.68 ng g^?1 lw). The results indicated no region-specific difference in the contaminants however inter-species as well as intra-species differences were evident. Comparison of DDTs, PCBs, and PBDEs profiles in fish with those from other countries revealed that fish from coastal waters off Savannah contained relatively less concentrations of PCBs and chlorinated pesticides, while PBDE concentrations were comparable or even higher than fish samples from other regions. Polychlorinated biphenyl congeners and chlorinated pesticide tempoal trend data exhibited no increase of contamination levels. The levels of PCBs and chlorinated pesticides in fish from Savannah coastal waters were below the Food and Drug Administrations (FDA) established limits for human consumption.
