摘要:
Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) has been widely used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) products and is ubiquitous as a substitute; however, its toxicity due to exposure remains to be determined. This study investigated the oxidative damage induced by DINP and the induced production of the pro-inflammation cytokines interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Oral exposure to DINP induced oxidative damage and inflammatory responses in liver and kidney tissues through the accumulation of ROS, which may be an underlying mechanism for its toxicity. These changes may contribute to hepatic and renal histopathological alterations. Our data suggest that oxidative stress is involved in DINP-induced toxicity and that the co-administration of melatonin exerts a protective effect against DINP-induced toxicity. © 2014 The Authors.

摘要:
The existing data are insufficient to evaluate the neurotoxicity of benzyl butyl phthalate (BBP) exposure on the brain, and the underlying mechanisms to explain these effects remain unclear. Kun Ming (KM) mice were exposed to BBP (0, 50, 250, 1250. mg/kg) via gavage for 14. days. Employing the Morris water maze (MWM) test, we observed that mice demonstrated poorer learning and memory performance than the control group at doses of 250 and 1250. mg/kg/day. Reduction of locomotor activity in mice and depression were indicated by a long "dead time" in the Forced Swim Test and tail suspension test. Pathological alterations and oxidative damage to the hippocampus were found. To study the molecular mechanisms underlying BBP toxicity, the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) and pCREB were tested. The modified levels of 5-HT in the hippocampus and the decreased levels of CREB phosphorylation after BBP exposure suggested a potential mechanism underlying BBP toxicity. We hypothesize that BBP exposure causes a decrease in the number of neurotransmitters, which in turn down regulates the levels of CREB phosphorylation by the cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated signaling. The results are an attenuation of the effects of CREB downstream, oxidative damage and impaired behavioral performance. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

摘要:
In order to observe the toxic effects of butyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) on zebrafish, the AChE and SOD activity of zebrafish exposed to different concentrations of BBP (0, 0.332, 0.665, 1.33 mg L −1 ) in a short-term (7d) test were determined. Semi-quantitative PCR was used to determine the mRNA transcript levels of the AChE and SOD gene in zebrafish brain and muscle. The results showed: AChE activity decreased with increased exposure concentration, and was significantly inhibited (p < 0.01) compared with the control group at 0.665 mg L −1 concentration. Low BBP concentrations stimulated and high concentrations inhibited SOD activity with a concentration of 0.332 mg L −1 resulting in a significant induction (p < 0.05) compared with the control, and 0.665 and 1.33 mg L −1 concentrations resulting in significant inhibition (p < 0.05, p < 0.01) relative to the control group. The RT-PCR data showed a decrease in brain and muscle mRNA transcription of AChE gene with an increase in exposure concentration. The mRNA transcription of SOD in the brain was not different between the exposed groups and control group; in muscle, the mRNA transcription inhibition decreased and then increased: all differences from the control were statistically significant. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media New York.

摘要:
Plastics such as polyvinyl chlorides (PVC) are widely used in many indoor constructed environments; however, their unbound chemicals, such as di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalates (DEHP), can leach into the surrounding environment. This study focused on DEHP's effect on the central nervous system by determining the precise DEHP content in mice brain tissue after exposure to the chemical, to evaluate the specific exposure range. Primary neuronal-astrocyte co-culture systems were used as in vitro models for chemical hazard identification of DEHP. Oxidative stress was hypothesized as a probable mechanism involved, and therefore the total reactive oxygen species (ROS) concentration was determined as a biomarker of oxidative stress. In addition, NeuriteTracer, a neurite tracing plugin with ImageJ, was used to develop an assay for neurotoxicity to provide quantitative measurements of neurological parameters, such as neuronal number, neuron count and neurite length, all of which could indicate neurotoxic effects. The results showed that with 1 nmol/L DEHP exposure, there was a significant increase in ROS concentrations, indicating that the neuronal-astrocyte cultures were injured due to exposure to DEHP. In response, astrocyte proliferation (gliosis) was initiated, serving as a mechanism to maintain a homeostatic environment for neurons and protect neurons from toxic chemicals. There is a need to assess the cumulative effects of DEHP in animals to evaluate the possible uptake and effects on the human neuronal system from exposure to DEHP in the indoor environment.

摘要:
HeLa cells were exposed to formaldehyde and its metabolic derivatives, methanol, formic acid, and acetaldehyde, to investigate that the toxicity of formaldehyde is not caused by the chemical group. After 1 h of treatment with formaldehyde, mitochondrial assays showed that low concentrations (e.g. 10 εmol/L) of formaldehyde promoted growth of the HeLa cells, while higher concentrations (e.g. ≥62.5 εmol/L) inhibited cell growth; while all four chemicals at a concentration of 125 εmol/L affected cell growth, formaldehyde affected the largest. Reactive oxygen species concentration increased with the concentration of the exposure chemical. The endogenous formaldehyde content increased the most in the formaldehyde group, but in other three groups, it did not increase as the exposure concentration increased. Expression of dehydrogenase (formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FDH)) in the formaldehyde (10.40) and methanol (10.60) groups increased significantly compared with the control (1), while it was similar to the control in formic acid (0.90) and acetaldehyde (1.10) groups. Our results suggest that formaldehyde could affect cell activity and even enter cells. Exposure to formaldehyde changes the endogenous formaldehyde concentration in cells within 24 h, and this induces expression of FDH for formaldehyde degradation to maintain the formaldehyde balance. The toxicity of formaldehyde is not caused by the carbon atoms in the aldehyde, hydroxyl, or carboxyl groups. Formaldehyde is hypothesized to be an important signaling molecule in the regulation of cell growth and maintenance of the endogenous formaldehyde level. © The Author(s) 2014.

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate;Mouse asthma model;Oxidative stress
摘要:
Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, as the most commonly used plasticizer, is considered to be related to the asthma prevalence. There are studies affirming that the DEHP has an adjuvant effect in the pathogenesis of allergy asthma. Oxidative stress is one possible pathway for DEHP-adjuvant effect. Thus, this study explored whether DEHP could induce adjuvant effect in mouse asthma model via oxidative stress pathway. Male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into six groups: (1) saline group, (2) DEHP group, (3) ovalbumin (OVA) group, (4) DEHP. +. OVA group, (5) OVA. +. vitamin E (Vit E) group, (6) DEHP. +. OVA. +. Vit E group. The exposure dose of DEHP was 30. mg/kg body weight (bw)/day. After 18. days of the exposure protocol. Reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH) and malonaldehyde (MDA) levels and biomarkers related to asthma model were measured. Collectively, these data indicated higher ROS and MDA levels and lower GSH contents in DEHP. +. OVA group than that in OVA group, while Vit E, an antioxidant, could restore ROS, MDA and GSH levels to control levels and attenuate the DEHP and/or OVA effects. Our observations suggested that there was a relationship between oxidative stress and the adjuvant effect induced by DEHP in this mouse asthma model. © 2014 The Authors.

摘要:
Bensulfuron methyl (BSM) is widely used for agricultural purposes and has raised health concerns, as well as ecological problems. Immunoassay would be one of the most advantaged measurements compared with traditional methods for BSM detection and measurement. In order to develop indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunoassay (icELISA), the anti-BSM monoclonal antibody (anti-BSM MAb) was produced. For the MAb production, BSM was conjugated to OVA and injected to mice with Freud's adjuvant for immunisation. Antiserum screening has revealed successful immunising. One stable hybridoma cell line (2H1) was obtained through cell fusion between spleen cells of immunised mouse and SP 2/0 cells. The MAb secreted by 2H1 cells was of high affinity and sensitivity, as well as specificity to BSM. Then the protocol of the icELISA and standard curve for BSM measurement was made and examined by controlled application. Significantly, the application has exhibited 96.530%-107.2% recovery of BSM. The produced MAb and established immunoassay may facilitate the measurement of BSM and herein help to ensure food safety and regulate environmental protection. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.

摘要:
为探究邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯(butyl benzyl phthalate,BBP)对小鼠神经的毒性作用,进行了小鼠体外毒理学研究。首先用不同浓度的邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯染毒神经模型细胞—N_2 a 神经瘤细胞,通过噻唑蓝比色法(MTT) ,Hoechst 33258染色实验评价邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯的细胞毒效应; 通过对染毒细胞氧自由基(ROS) 、丙二醛(MDA) 、还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)含量的检测来探究BBP 对小鼠神经瘤细胞的氧化损伤效应。随着BBP 浓度的不断增高,细胞的MTT 值逐渐变小,当BBP 的浓度达到10 g·L~(-1)时,MTT 实验结果与对照组出现显著性差异; Hoechst 33258染色结果显示: 高浓度的BBP 导致细胞核呈现出不规则状态,出现了凋亡小体; 随着BBP 染毒浓度的升高N_2 a 细胞中的ROS 水平和MDA 含量逐渐上升,分别在0. 16 g·L~(-1)和10 g·L~(-1)开始与对照组相比出现了显著性的差异(p < 0.05); 而GSH 系数呈现下降趋势,在0.32 g·L~(-1)时开始出现显著性差异(p < 0.05)。实验结果表明高浓度的邻苯二甲酸丁基苄酯可以导致神经瘤细胞的凋亡,并产生氧化损伤效应。

OBJECTIVE: During the last few decades, the prevalence of allergic skin diseases, asthma and rhinitis, has increased worldwide. Introduction of environmental chemicals with aggravation effects may play a part in this increase. The artificial chemical product dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is used in many products used in daily life. Dermal exposure to DBP is a common (but easily neglected) exposure pattern. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: In this study, we examined the aggravation effect of long-term dermal exposure to DBP in a T-helper type 2 (Th2) model of contact hypersensitivity (CHS) in mice, and sought the potential molecular mechanisms. Experimental tests were conducted after 40-day dermal exposure to saline or three concentrations of DBP and subsequent three times of sensitization with 0.5% fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) or vehicle. The results of immunological and inflammatory biomarkers (total-immunoglobulin (Ig)E and Th cytokines) as well as histopathological examination and measurement of ear swelling supported the notion that high doses of DBP may promote and aggravate atopic dermatitis. Increased expression of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in this mouse model suggested that TSLP might be one of the molecular mechanisms of the aggravation effect induced by DBP. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Together, these results indicated that long-term dermal exposure to types of environmental toxins such as phthalates may endow an atopic predisposition in animals or humans. In addition, the high expression of TSLP in the mouse model demonstrated that TSLP might have an important role in the aggravation effect. This result could help to provide effective prevention strategies against atopic diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD).

摘要:
In this experiment, the oxidative damage of nano-CdSeS in mice brains was performed. 20 male Kunming mice were divided into 4 groups and 3 experimental groups were exposed to different doses of nano-CdSeS (0.1 mg/mL, 0.2 mg/mL and 0.4 mg/mL) by intravenous administration while the control used saline solution instead. Three days later, the enzymatic activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the damage degree of DNA were determined to assess the oxidative damage in brain tissues. Our results showed that in the experimental groups, SOD activity was inhibited and MDA content was increased as the doses rising, at the same time, tail moment and tail DNA% increased significantly when comparing with the control. And these results exhibited a certain doses-dependency relations. From results above, it demonstrated that oxidative damage of brain induced by nano-CdSeS which enter into blood–brain barrier in mice.

摘要:
目的探讨吸入式甲醛暴露对小鼠骨髓组织中转录因子GATA-2和CCAAT/增强子结合蛋白(C/EBPα)在mRNA以及蛋白表达水平的影响。方法将24只Balb/C小鼠随机分为3组,每组8只,采用仿真式口鼻暴露的方式,暴露于不同浓度的气态甲醛环境中(0、0.5和3.0mg/m3),每天8h,连续2周。染毒结束后,分别采用反转录PCR(RT-PCR)和酶联免疫吸附(ELISA)法测定小鼠骨髓组织中转录因子GATA-2和C/EBPa mRNA和蛋白的表达。结果与对照组相比,转录因子GATA-2和C/EBPα mRNA和蛋白的表达均随甲醛浓度的升高呈下降趋势,且甲醛浓度为3.0 mg/m3时,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论高浓度(3.0 mg/m3)甲醛暴露可以抑制小鼠骨髓组织中GATA-2和C/EBPα mRNA和蛋白的正常表达。

摘要:
nButyl benzyl phthalate (BBP) is a phthalic acid ester (PAE) used extensively in the manufacturing of plastics that contributes to the environmental pollution. It easily released to the environment and resistant to degradation. Bioremediation has been proposed for removal of PAEs from contaminated sites. Studies showed that the biodegradation of PAEs was slow if the lateral chain was longer and more complex. Two BBP degrading bacterial strains, HS-B1, HS-B2, were isolated from contaminated sludge in the river of Jingzhou in Hubei province. The two bacteria were identified as Acinetobacter sp. and Arthrobacter sp. by morphology and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. BBP at 500 mg L<sup>-1</sup> in the culture medium was tested and after 24 h of culture, chloroform was used to extract the BBP in the culture medium. The initial and the final concentrations of BBP were assessed by UV-visible spectrophotometer. The results showed that the bacterium could grow well on BBP as the sole source of carbon and energy. The degradation of 500 mg L<sup>-1</sup> BBP by strains HS-B1 and HS-B2 was 28% and 59% after 24 h, respectively. The rate of degradation increased to 40%, 75% respectively with addition of 0.1% LB in 24 h, suggesting that additional sources of growth factors enhanced biodegradation. This study is helpful to the development of microbial resources for bioremediation. ©2012 Elsevier Ltd.
