重金属人体生物有效性、吸收及毒性研究中的肠道细胞模型

重金属污染对人体健康产生极大威胁,因而备受关注.肠道吸收是人体重金属暴露的主要途径之一,因此,重金属的生物有效性、肠道吸收过程和毒性研究成为当前的研究热点.体外胃肠模拟法和动物模型被广泛用于重金属的相关研究,然而体外胃肠模拟法缺少人体肠道细胞成分,动物模型与人体存在着物种差异且实验成本高.鉴于此,研究者开发了能够部分模拟人体肠道上皮功能的体外肠道细胞模型.此模型作为研究生物有效性的重要工具,能模拟肠道对重金属的吸收转运过程,并能够结合分子生物学等技术、采用多学科交叉的研究方法探索重金属的肠吸收和肠毒性的分子机制.本文系统介绍了人肠上皮的结构功能、肠道上皮细胞对重金属吸收转运机制、肠道细胞模型的发展及其在重金属相关研究中的应用与优缺点,总结了肠细胞模型功能验证指标和优化方法.同时,还对肠道微流控培养系统(芯片肠道)和肠类器官等三维肠细胞模型技术的最新进展进行了介绍和展望.

Multilevel air quality evolution in Shenyang: Impact of elevated point emission reduction

Visibility observed at different altitudes is favorable to understand the causes of air pollution. We conducted 4-years of observations of visibility at 2.8 and 60 m and particulate matter(PM) concentrations from 2015 to 2018 in Shenyang, a provincial city in Northeast China. The results indicated that visibility increased with the increasing height in winter(especially at night), and decreased with height in summer(especially at the daytime). PM concentration exhibited opposite vertical variati...     

Insight into the dynamic microbial community and core bacteria in composting from different sources by advanced bioinformatics methods

Microbial communities are important for high composting efficiency and good quality composts. This study was conducted to compare the changes of physicochemical and bacterial characteristics in composting from different raw materials, including chicken manure (CM), duck manure (DM), sheep manure (SM), food waste (FW), and vegetable waste (VW). The role and interactions of core bacteria and their contribution to maturity in diverse composts were analyzed by advanced bioinformatics methods combined sequencing with co-occurrence network and structural equation modeling (SEM). Results indicated that there were obviously different bacterial composition and diversity in composting from diverse sources. FW had a low pH and different physiochemical characteristics compared to other composts but they all achieved similar maturity products. Redundancy analysis suggested total organic carbon, phosphorus, and temperature governed the composition of microbial species but key factors were different in diverse composts. Network analysis showed completely different interactions of core bacterial community from diverse composts but Thermobifida was the ubiquitous core bacteria in composting bacterial network. Sphaerobacter and Lactobacillus as core genus were presented in the starting mesophilic and thermophilic phases of composting from manure (CM, DM, SM) and municipal solid waste (FW, VW), respectively. SEM indicated core bacteria had the positive, direct, and the biggest (>?80%) effects on composting maturity. Therefore, this study presents theoretical basis to identify and enhance the core bacteria for improving full-scale composting efficiency facing more and more organic wastes.
