PFOS暴露对肺癌细胞中信号通路的影响

为探讨全氟辛烷磺酸盐（PFOS）产生肺毒性的分子机制,采用细胞计数试剂盒（CCK-8）方法测定不同浓度PFOS对A549细胞活性的影响,并用二代测序方法测定PFOS暴露对A549细胞中miRNAs表达的影响,预测异常表达miRNAs的靶基因.通过生物信息学分析推断靶基因参与的信号通路及潜在的生物学功能.结果显示,低浓度PFOS（<00μmol/L）促进A549细胞增殖,高浓度PFOS抑制细胞增殖.暴露于300μmol/L PFOS中24h的A549细胞中108个miRNAs表达量显著上调,63个miRNAs表达量显著下调.差异表达miRNAs通过Ras、Rap1、HIF-1、ErbB和VEGF等信号通路参与细胞增殖、代谢和发育等生物学过程.这表明PFOS可通过影响细胞增殖和诱发炎症反应对肺造成威胁.     

全氟和多氟烷基化合物微生物降解与转化研究进展

全氟和多氟烷基化合物(PFASs)因其持久性、长距离迁移性、生物积累性和生物毒性而受到广泛关注.目前世界上对环境中PFASs的监测和管控主要针对全氟烷基酸(PFAAs).而大部分多氟烷基化合物在环境中能够被微生物降解为PFAAs,也被称为前体物.因此,探究前体物在环境中的微生物转化行为有助于综合评价PFASs的环境风险,以及制定相关的管控和修复措施.虽然PFAAs一直被认为是环境中的“永久化合物”,但近年来,PFAAs的厌氧微生物还原脱氟作为一项极具潜力且充满挑战的修复技术,成为研究的一个前沿热点.系统总结了前体物(氟调化合物和全氟辛烷磺胺衍生物)、 PFAAs和新型PFASs在微生物作用下的降解规律和转化路径,并讨论了PFASs微生物降解的影响因素,最后提出未来的研究方向.     

餐厨垃圾厌氧消化过酸化系统微生态特征的宏基因组学分析

过酸化失稳是困扰有机废物厌氧消化（AD）过程高效稳定运行的一大难题.为探析不同诱导方式造成过酸化的AD系统微生态特征差异,在餐厨垃圾中温AD反应器中分别引入负荷扰动（R2）、温度及搅拌扰动（R3）以诱发系统过酸化,利用宏基因组学测序技术,对比考察稳定与酸化系统微生物群落结构及主要产甲烷功能路径差异.结果表明,两种方式均成功诱发系统过酸化失稳,过酸化系统中挥发性脂肪酸（VFA）过量富集（R2、R3系统中分别高达（12.53±1.96） g·L^-1和（8.00±0.81） g·L^-1）的同时,丙酸等多碳VFA组分比例大幅升高.R2、R3系统酸化后其产甲烷菌及相关酶受到高浓度VFA的显著抑制,酸积累程度更高的R2受抑制更为明显.且经相关性分析发现,多碳酸尤其是丙酸是抑制产甲烷作用的关键因素.与R2相比,R3具有更高的耗氢能力,耗氢微生物如可耗H₂产酸的Treponema属和氢营养型产甲烷菌Methanoculleus属、Methanospirillum属等相对丰度显著高于R2.酸化系统均以乙酸营养型产甲烷为主要的产甲烷途径,并以Methanosaeta属为主要的乙酸型产甲烷菌.酸化系统中更高含量的乙酸产甲烷途径的AK-PTA酶有利于促进对乙酸的利用,增强厌氧消化微生物菌群对高浓度乙酸的耐受 能力.本研究中的相关结果可为提高有机废物AD微生态抗酸化能力提供理论依据和数据支撑.     

Seasonal differences in sources and formation processes of PM2.5 nitrate in an urban environment of North China

Nitrate (NO₃⁻) has been the dominant ion of secondary inorganic aerosols (SIAs) in PM_2.5 in North China. Tracking the formation mechanisms and sources of particulate nitrate are vital to mitigate air pollution. In this study, PM_2.5 samples in winter (January 2020) and in summer (June 2020) were collected in Jiaozuo, China, and water-soluble ions and (δ¹⁵N, δ¹⁸O)-NO₃⁻ were analyzed. The results showed that the increase of NO₃⁻ concentrations was the most remarkable with increasing PM_2.5 pollution level. δ¹⁸O-NO₃⁻ values for winter samples (82.7‰ to 103.9‰) were close to calculated δ¹⁸O-HNO₃ (103‰ ± 0.8‰) values by N₂O₅ pathway, while δ¹⁸O-NO₃⁻ values (67.8‰ to 85.7‰) for summer samples were close to calculated δ¹⁸O-HNO₃ values (61‰ ± 0.8‰) by OH oxidation pathway, suggesting that PM_2.5 nitrate is largely from N₂O₅ pathway in winter, while is largely from OH pathway in summer. Averaged fractional contributions of P_N2O5+H2O were 70% and 39% in winter and summer sampling periods, respectively, those of P_OH were 30% and 61%, respectively. Higher δ¹⁵N-NO₃⁻ values for winter samples (3.0‰ to 14.4‰) than those for summer samples (-3.7‰ to 8.6‰) might be due to more contributions from coal combustion in winter. Coal combustion (31% ± 9%, 25% ± 9% in winter and summer, respectively) and biomass burning (30% ± 12%, 36% ± 12% in winter and summer, respectively) were the main sources using Bayesian mixing model. These results provided clear evidence of particulate nitrate formation and sources under different PM_2.5 levels, and aided in reducing atmospheric nitrate in urban environments.     

Transformations in carbon and nitrogen-forms in peat subjected to progressive thermal stress as revealed by analytical pyrolysis

To study the characteristic N-forms of humic-type materials, samples of sapric peat from Galicia (northern Spain) were heated at 350 °C for 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 s, and studied by Curie-point Py-GC/MS, solid-state CPMAS ¹³C-NMR and ¹⁵N-NMR spectroscopies. NMR analysis of the peat samples in the progressive heating stages showed the concentration of heterocyclic N-forms, the maximum structural transition amide-to-heterocyclic forms being observed in samples heated for 120 s (56% heterocyclic N and 34% aromatic C). Under more drastic conditions all N-forms were depleted. Correlation between spectroscopic and pyrolytic data betrayed specific pyrolytic markers for the different N-forms. The intensity of the ¹⁵N-NMR amide peak tended to be positively correlated to the yield of indoles, imidazoles and pyrazoles, and negatively correlated to those of benzonitriles and pyrazines. Analytical pyrolysis also showed a progressive enrichment in lipids and alkyl macromolecules with increasing heating intensity, and a decrease in lignin-derived, polysaccharide-derived and N-containing compounds. The relative abundance of non-methoxyphenolic aromatic compounds did not change. The N-compounds in peat samples unheated or heated for 60–90 s released methylpyrazole, dimethylpyrroline, methyldiphenylindole and pyrazole, whereas peat samples heated for 120 s mainly yielded methylpyrazine and methyldiphenylindole. Dimethylpyrroline and pyrazine prevailed in samples heated for 150 s, whereas samples heated for 180 s yielded mainly pyrrole. Pyrolysis data presented low possibilities for forecasting the extent of the O-alkyl domain, but reflected quantitatively the transformations in the lignin-like moiety. Both techniques coincide in pointing out the accumulation of a recalcitrant alkyl domain possibly derived from abiotic condensations or inherited lipid biomacromolecules.     

电子束辐照降解水中氧氟沙星的研究

应用电子直线加速器初步探索了水体中氧氟沙星的辐照降解影响条件及降解机理.对初始浓度为20mg/L的氧氟沙星水溶液进行了辐照降解研究,分别选取了0.5kGy,1.0kGy,2.0kGy,3.0kGy,5.0kGy共5个剂量组,以研究辐照吸收剂量对降解效率的影响,同时分别对氧氟沙星水溶液进行空气饱和（水合电子清除剂）、氮气饱和、添加0.005mol/L及0.05mol/L氯化钠、添加0.05mol/L叔丁醇（羟基自由基清除剂）、添加0.005mol/L碳酸钠、添加0.005mol/L硫酸钠等方法进行处理,以探究降解过程中辐照水体产生自由基对氧氟沙星降解的贡献率.结果表明,以空气饱和进行处理,可提高氧氟沙星的降解率,辐照吸收剂量为2.0kGy时降解率可达99%.反之,加入氯化钠、叔丁醇和碳酸钠抑制了氧氟沙星的降解,加入硫酸钠则影响不大,表明羟基自由基在氧氟沙星降解中起关键作用.通过应用超高效液相色谱-质谱（UPLC-MS）对降解产物的分析鉴定,推测出了氧氟沙星的降解转化途径.     

New insights into FeS/persulfate system for tetracycline elimination: Iron valence, homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions and degradation pathways

In this study, complete tetracycline（TTC） and above 50% of total organic carbon（TOC） were removed by Fe S/PS after 30 min under optimized conditions. Although free radicals and high-valent iron ions were identified to generate in the process, the apparent similarity between intermediate products of Fe S/PS, Fe/PS, and UV/PS systems demonstrated that the degradation of TTC was due to sulfate radicals(SO₄^·-) and hydroxyl radicals（ ·OH）. Based on the reaction between free radi...

长距离污染传输对珠江三角洲区域空气质量影响的数值模拟研究

采用CMAQ模型系统对珠江三角洲(以下简称珠三角)区域2006年主要大气污染物浓度进行模拟,获得该区域主要污染物浓度时空分布和大气传输季节变化特征,并结合其它相关研究方法分析长距离传输对珠三角区域空气质量的影响.模型模拟结果揭示了珠三角NO2、SO2、PM10、PM2.5浓度具有秋冬季高、春夏季低的季节变化特征,而珠三角O3浓度的高值出现在秋季.零排放扰动法表明长距离传输对珠三角15个区域监测子站NO2、SO2、PM10和PM2.5浓度平均贡献分别为2.6%、13.9%、24.2%和28.1%,并且秋冬季长距离传输贡献大于春夏季.反向轨迹聚类方法显示珠三角区域代表性站点万顷沙72 h反向控制气团依据其来向可分为沿岸气团、大陆气团、区域环流和海洋气团.万顷沙站点主要污染物小时观测浓度大于150μg·m-3的时段与短距离沿岸气团、短距离大陆气团以及区域环流主导下的污染物传输密切相关.四维传输通量分析结果证实,NO2污染传输通道无法由广东省外延伸至珠三角地区,因此珠三角大气NO2浓度主要来源于广东省内的排放.珠三角在受沿岸气团或大陆气团控制时存在从福建省或江西省一直延伸至珠三角的SO2和PM2.5高通量污染传输通道.因此控制珠三角区域大气污染需考虑区域背景气象条件差异,针对不同污染物采取不同的区域联防联控措施.
