  • 简介:为探讨纳米MnO2与常规MnO2粉末对细胞DNA损伤作用的差别,采用不同浓度的纳米MnO2与常规MnO2粉末(0、100、200、400μg·mL^-1)对Hela细胞进行染毒,应用单细胞凝胶电泳(彗星实验)检测Hela细胞的损伤效应.结果表明,与对照组相比,纳米MnO2和常规MnO2各染毒组细胞尾部DNA百分率(TailDNA%)和尾矩(TailMoment)均显著增加(p〈0.01);同一浓度下,纳米MnO2组细胞尾部DNA百分率和尾矩显著高于常规MnO2组(p〈0.01).以上结果表明,纳米MnO2和常规MnO2粉末均能导致Hela细胞DNA损伤,且纳米MnO2的损伤作用强于常规MnO2.

  • 简介:β-胡萝卜素-15,15'-加氧酶(β-carotene-15,15'-momoxygenase1,bco1)是β-胡萝卜素转化成维生素A过程中的关键酶,bco1与bco1l是编码此酶的主要基因。本实验利用CRISPR/Cas9技术敲除斑马鱼的与β-胡萝卜素-15,15'-加氧酶编码相关的基因bco1与bco1l,以便深入开展对斑马鱼bco1的功能研究。分别在斑马鱼bco1与bco1l基因2号外显子选取sgRNA识别位点,体外转录制备sgRNA并与Cas9mRNA混合对斑马鱼Ⅰ细胞期受精卵进行显微注射,24h后收集部分胚胎进行PCR检测并将PCR产物进行单克隆测序确定sgRNA的有效性,构建首建鱼,并在此基础上通过PCR检测、凝胶电泳及测序筛选可遗传突变体。本研究分别获得了bco1基因突变与bco1l基因突变,分析表明这些缺失和插入均可导致编码序列的移码,为研究鱼类胡萝卜素代谢及相关发育过程等后续研究提供了材料。

  • 简介:焦化废水中含有大量毒性物质,具有较强的生物毒性。本文以实验室构建的A2/O焦化废水处理系统为研究对象,考察废水处理过程化学成分和急性毒性的变化。采用紫外扫描和三维荧光光谱分析考察了处理系统各阶段出水的物质组分,并采用固相萃取和超滤膜分离等手段对水样各组分的发光细菌急性毒性进行研究。结果表明,伴随着芳香族物质等毒物的去除,焦化废水的急性生物毒性在该处理系统中被逐步削减,最终出水的毒性当量仅为原水的28%;不同组分的生物毒性测试结果显示,废水水样的强极性和中等极性有机组分贡献了绝大部分的毒性当量,而这些物质主要在缺氧段及好氧段被削减;结合三维荧光光谱的分析结果,可推断焦化废水中一类很难在A2/O处理系统中被完全去除的芳香族蛋白质类似物(Ⅱ区)很可能具有较强的生物毒性,是构成出水毒性的主要物质。

  • 简介:铬(chromium)是一种在工业生产过程中广泛使用的重金属,进入人体后可导致急慢性中毒,具有神经毒性、基因毒性、致癌性和免疫毒性。了解六价铬(hexavalentchromium,Cr(Ⅵ))的细胞毒性,进一步探究Cr(Ⅵ)的毒作用机制,可为防治Cr(Ⅵ)对人群健康的损害提供实验依据。电压依赖性阴离子通道蛋白1(voltage-dependentanionchannel-1,VDAC1)参与调控线粒体外膜通透性,影响细胞凋亡;同时VDAC1也是BCL-2家族的重要结合位点,它可与BAX/BAK相互作用形成孔道,使线粒体内的凋亡相关蛋白,如细胞色素C等,进入胞浆,引起细胞凋亡。但VDAC1影响细胞凋亡的确切路径与分子机制,目前尚未完全研究清楚。使用L02人正常肝细胞作为实验对象,通过慢病毒包装法建立VDAC1低表达细胞系,检测在相同浓度Cr(Ⅵ)处理的条件下,与非染毒组相比,不同受试细胞的生存率、凋亡情况、活性氧簇(reactiveoxygenspecies,ROS)生成量、线粒体功能和凋亡诱导因子(AIF)的变化情况是否存在差异。结果表明,与VDAC1正常表达的细胞相比,VDAC1低表达组在Cr(Ⅵ)染毒的情况下,细胞生存率升高,凋亡率下降,细胞内ROS生成量减少,MPTP活性增加不明显,胞浆内细胞色素C(CytochromeC,CytC)和AIF含量降低。上述研究结果表明VDAC1参与了由六价铬诱导的线粒体依赖性肝细胞凋亡,并且抑制VDAC1的表达可减轻因Cr(Ⅵ)暴露而引起的L02肝细胞损伤。
