简介:为了探讨有害因子胁迫与二氧化硫(SO2)细胞生物合成的关系,采用体外培养实验方法研究了不同浓度H2O2(0.1、1、10mmol·L^-1)以及不同pH值(6.8、7.2、8.0)培养液对人支气管上皮细胞(BEP2D)SO2产生量(以胞内SO3^2-含量代表)的影响.结果表明:1)培养液过酸(pH6.8)和过碱(pH8.0)均可使BEP2D细胞SO2产生量显著增加(与对照相比,p〈0.05);2)H2O2胁迫也可使BEP2D细胞SO2产生量增加,当H2O2浓度≥1mmol·L^-1时,与对照相比,差异达到显著(p〈0.05).以上结果提示:人支气管上皮细胞在有害因子的胁迫下可产生内源性SO2;SO2可能是一种生物气体应激分子,能像应激蛋白那样提高生物体对有害因子的抵御能力.
简介:为了阐明大气污染物SO2对神经系统和心血管系统的毒作用机制,采用全细胞膜片钳技术研究了SO2衍生物(NaHSO3和Na2SO3,分子比为1:3)对大鼠海马、背根节神经元和心肌细胞膜上钠、钾、钙离子通道的影响.结果显示:(1)SO2衍生物可显著增大大鼠海马CA1区神经元钠电流,不影响钠通道的激活过程,但可使钠电流的失活曲线向去极化方向移动,延迟钠通道的失活过程;另外,SO2衍生物可显著增大瞬间外向钾电流(IA)和延迟整流钾电流(IK),不影响IA的激活过程,使IK的激活过程向负电压方向移动,促进IK的激活过程,而使IA的失活曲线向正电压方向移动,延迟IA的失活过程.(2)SO2衍生物显著增大大鼠背根节神经元钠电流(TTX-S钠电流和TTX-R钠电流),可使两种钠电流的激活和失活曲线均向去极化方向移动,但对失活的影响大于对激活的影响,即延迟钠通道的失活过程;SO2衍生物显著增大背根节神经元瞬间外向钾电流(TOCs)和延迟整流钾电流(IK),不影响TOCs的激活过程,但可使IK的激活曲线向超极化方向移动,促进IK的激活.另外,还可使TOCs的失活曲线向去极化方向移动,即延迟TOCs的失活.(3)SO2衍生物可显著增大大鼠心肌细胞L-型钙电流(ICa·L),使ICa·L的激活和失活曲线均向去极化方向移动,但对失活的影响大于对激活的影响;SO2衍生物显著增大心肌细胞钠电流,不影响钠通道的激活过程,但可使钠电流的失活曲线向去极化方向移动,延迟钠通道的失活过程;SO2衍生物显著增大心肌细胞瞬间外向钾电流(Ito),使Ito的激活曲线向超极化方向移动,促进Ito的激活过程,但可使Ito的失活曲线向去极化方向移动,延迟Ito的失活过程;此外,SO2衍生物还可显著增大心肌细胞内向整流钾电流(IKI),但不影响其反转电位.结果表
简介:为探讨二氧化硫(SO2)的肝脏免疫毒理效应,利用流式细胞仪(FACS)检测技术,分析了SO2体内代谢衍生物——亚硫酸钠(Na2SO3)与亚硫酸氢钠(NaHSO3)混合液(两者摩尔比为3:1)腹腔注射染毒对C57BL/6小鼠肝脏淋巴细胞T细胞亚群CD4+和CD8+的百分数以及CD4+/CD8+细胞比值的影响.实验组剂量分别为25、100、400mg·kg-1(bodyweight),染毒一周后,制备肝脏淋巴细胞悬液,经特异性荧光标记的CD4(FITC)、CD8(PE)单克隆抗体染色后,采用FACS流式细胞仪检测T淋巴细胞亚群百分数.研究发现:1)染毒后所有处理组肝脏CD4+T细胞所占的百分数显著升高(p〈0.05);2)CD8+T细胞所占的百分数在100mg·kg-1、400mg·kg-1染毒组显著降低(p〈0.05);3)CD4+/CD8+的比值在100mg·kg-1、400mg·kg-1染毒组显著升高(p〈0.01).研究结果显示:SO2体内衍生物亚硫酸钠和亚硫酸氢钠可使肝脏CD4+/CD8+T细胞的比值显著升高,即SO2衍生物可使肝脏CD4和CD8淋巴细胞比例严重失调而使机体产生免疫紊乱.
简介:通过涂覆热分解法制备了Ti/RuO2-ZrO2-SnO2、Ti/RuO2电极材料,采用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电镜(SEM)和循环伏安(CV)对电极材料进行表征,考察了电流密度、NaCl质量浓度、pH值及电极间距对废水COD降解率的影响。结果表明,Ti/RuO2-ZrO2-SnO2电极对COD具有更高的降解率,对其进行工艺优化。电极材料对废水降解的最佳工艺条件为电流密度40mA/cm^2,NaCl质量浓度4g/L,pH=5.0,电极间距10mm,COD的降解率达到90.5%。Ti/RuO2-ZrO2-SnO2电极中SnO2与RuO2生成固溶体,有利于增强涂层与基体之间的结合力,提高电极的稳定性;ZrO2起到细化晶粒的作用,致使电极表面粗糙度增加,增强了电极的电催化性能,且降解过程符合一级动力学模型。
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.
