Tin or stannous (Sn2+) compounds are used as catalysts, stabilizers in plastic industries, wood preservatives, agricultural biocides and nuclear medicine. In order to verify the Sn2+ up-take and toxicity in yeast cells we utilized a multi-elemental analysis known as particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) along with cell survival assays and quantitative real-time PCR. The detection of Sn2+ by PIXE was possible only in yeast cells in stationary phase of growth (STAT cells) that survive at 25 mM Sn2+ concentration. Yeast cells in exponential phase of growth (LOG cells) tolerate only micro-molar Sn2+ concentrations that result in intracellular concentration below of the method detection limit. Our PIXE analysis showed that STAT XV185-14c yeast cells demonstrate a significant loss of intracellular elements such as Mg, Zn, S, Fe and an increase in P levels after 1 h exposure to SnCl2. The survival assay showed enhanced tolerance of LOG yeast cells lacking the low-affinity iron and zinc transporters to stannous treatment, suggesting the possible involvement in Sn2+ uptake. Moreover, our qRT-PCR data showed that Sn2+ treatment could generate reactive oxygen species as it induces activation of many stress-response genes, including SOD1, YAP1, and APN1. 相似文献

This study centres around the question of how far the analysis of spruce needles (Picea abies L.) provides a suitable tool for detecting and describing large-scale air pollution, primarily by heavy metals, in Switzerland. For that reason 1637 spruce shoots from 833 sites were analysed, relationships between the different elements were calculated and maps of their spatial distribution drawn. The results show that needle analysis is a valid instrument for the identification of various air pollutants in Switzerland. The element best suited is Pb, followed by some others like Mo, Fe, Cd or S. The most heavily polluted areas in Switzerland are the midlands, and in the north and north-west. Their spatial distribution suggests that in these areas the indicator elements are derived from local sources. 相似文献
