摘要:
Inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, as well as fibrosis in lungs induced by a type of nano-sized carbon nanotubes (single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)) have been investigated. However, studies examining the effects of SWCNTs on airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) are not so numerous. We examined the effects of pulmonary exposure to SWCNTs on AHR and sought the underlying molecular mechanisms. Wistar rats were divided into four experimental groups and repeatedly administered vehicle or 0.02, 0.20 and 2.00 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> body weight SWCNTs through the intratracheal route. We found that 0.20 and 2.00 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> body weight SWCNTs in rats caused significant exacerbation of AHR. SWCNTs also amplified the lung protein levels of T helper 2 cytokines, immunoglobulin production in serum, profiles of immune cells in lungs, and levels of oxidative stress-related biomarkers in the airways, and exhibited airway remodelling. These results suggest that SWCNTs can exacerbate AHR in rats by enhancing airway inflammation and pulmonary oxidative stress. This journal is ©The Royal Society of Chemistry.

摘要:
Atopic eczema is a common health problem in children. The prevalence has increased in the past decades. Besides a genetic predisposition, lifestyle factors, dietary habits and indoor environments are thought to be related to its high prevalence. A cross-sectional questionnaire study was carried out in 2011 in the Wuhan area to study associations between home environments and children's health. The questionnaires were replied to by parents of 2193 children 1-8 years old and the response rate was 91.4% (2193/2400). The results show: (1) The prevalence of "eczema symptom ever that lasted for 6 months" was 23.2%; "eczema symptom in the last 12 months" 7.4% and "awake at night due to itchy rash" 3.4%. (2) Risk factors: Closer to business area (AOR 1.4), moisture related problems (AOR 1.3-2.2), moldy and stuffy odor perception (AOR 1.5), mice observed (AOR 1.8), pet keeping (AOR 1.3), exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (AOR 1.3) and incense (AOR 1.8) were significant risk factors for atopic eczema symptoms ever. Living in an apartment, compared to single family house, was related to more eczema symptom in the last 12 months. Damp clothing/bed sheets and perception of stuffy odor were risk factors for both "eczema symptom in the last 12 months" and "awake due to itchy rash (severe eczema)". The odds ratio of mice observed for severe eczema was 3.1 (95% CI: 1.4-6.7). It suggests that urbanization, life style and dampness problems at home were significant risk factors for eczema symptoms among children in Wuhan, China. © 2013 The Author(s).

摘要:
Chlorpyrifos is a broad-spectrum, chlorinated organophosphate pesticide employed for pest control in various agricultural and animal husbandries. Acute and chronic exposure to CPF can elicit several adverse effects, including oxidative stress. We investigated neurotoxicity of CPF-treated mice, and evaluated the antioxidant effect of vitamin E against oxidative stress and histological changes in the livers and kidneys of CPF-treated mice. Kunming mice were divided randomly into five exposure groups of six: (A) peanut oil; (B) 3. mg/kg CPF; (C) 6. mg/kg CPF; (D) 12. mg/kg CPF; (E) vitamin E (100. mg/kg), 3. h after administration of CPF (12. mg/kg) and used as a post-treatment group. Oral administration of high-dose groups (12. mg/kg) CPF led to a significant increase in levels of reactive oxygen species, DNA-protein crosslinks, 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde, decreases in acetylcholinesterase activity and glutathione level, as well as causing hepatic and renal histopathological change. Except for AChE activity levels, administration of vitamin E to CPF-treated mice restored these biochemical parameters to within normal levels, and resulted in overall improvement in damage to livers and kidneys. These data suggest that oxidative stress is involved in CPF-induced toxicity and that vitamin E can protect against the tissue damage induced by CPF. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

摘要:
To assess the aquatic ecosystem safety of silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanoparticles (NPs), we studied the toxicity of the SiO2 NPs and SiO2 bulk particles (BPs) using zebrafish. Our results show that the SiO2 NPs can significantly affect the development of zebrafish embryos, while there is no obvious effect on survival and development of embryos was found in SiO2 BPs exposure group. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in zebrafish larvae exposed to the SiO2 NPs for 108 hours, increased significantly in dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that the SiO2 NPs have toxic effects on the development of zebrafish embryos and the effects could be resulted by oxidative damage.

摘要:
OBJECTIVE: Formaldehyde, a ubiquitous environmental pollutant has been classified as a human leukemogen. However, toxicity of formaldehyde in bone marrow, the target site of leukemia induction, is still poorly understood. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: To investigate bone marrow toxicity (bone marrow pathology, hematotoxicity) and underlying mechanisms (oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis) in formaldehyde-exposed mice. Male Balb/c mice were exposed to formaldehyde (0, 0.5, and 3.0 mg/m(3)) by nose-only inhalation for 8 hours/day, over a two week period designed to simulate a factory work schedule, with an exposure-free "weekend" on days 6 and 7, and were sacrificed on the morning of day 13. Counts of white blood cells, red blood cells and lymphocytes were significantly (p<0.05) decreased at 0.5 mg/m(3) (43%, 7%, and 39%, respectively) and 3.0 mg/m(3) (52%, 27%, and 43%, respectively) formaldehyde exposure, while platelet counts were significantly increased by 109% (0.5 mg/m(3)) and 67% (3.0 mg/m(3)). Biomarkers of oxidative stress (reactive oxygen species, glutathione depletion, cytochrome P450 1A1 and glutathione s-transferase theta 1 expression), inflammation (nuclear factor kappa-B, tomour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-1 beta), and apoptosis (activity of cysteine-aspartic acid protease 3) in bone marrow tissues were induced at one or both formaldehyde doses mentioned above. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Exposure of mice to formaldehyde by inhalation induced bone marrow toxicity, and that oxidative stress, inflammation and the consequential apoptosis jointly constitute potential mechanisms of such induced toxicity.

摘要:
Formaldehyde (FA), a major industrial chemical and ubiquitous environmental pollutant, has been classified as a leukemogen. The causal relationship remains unclear, however, due to limited evidence that FA induces toxicity in bone marrow, the site of leukemia induction, and in other distal organs. Although induction of DNA-protein crosslinks (DPC), a hallmark of FA toxicity, was not previously detected in the bone marrow of FA-exposed rats and monkeys in studies published in the 1980s, our recent studies showed increased DPC in the bone marrow, liver, kidney, and testes of exposed Kunming mice. To confirm these preliminary results, in the current study we exposed BALB/c mice to 0, 0.5, 1.0, and 3.0 mg m-3 FA (8 hr per day, for 7 consecutive days) by nose-only inhalation and measured DPC levels in bone marrow and other organs of exposed mice. As oxidative stress is a potential mechanism of FA toxicity, we also measured glutathione (GSH), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and malondialdehyde (MDA), in the bone marrow, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, lung, liver, spleen, and testes of exposed mice. Significant dose-dependent increases in DPC, decreases in GSH, and increases in ROS and MDA were observed in all organs examined (except for DPC in lung). Bone marrow was among the organs with the strongest effects for DPC, GSH, and ROS. In conclusion, exposure of mice to FA by inhalation induced genotoxicity and oxidative stress in bone marrow and other organs. These findings strengthen the biological plausibility of FA-induced leukemogenesis and systemic toxicity. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

摘要:
毒死蜱是一种高效、低毒、广谱的有机磷杀虫杀螨剂.为研究其对生物体的氧化损伤,以昆明小鼠为受试体,毒死蜱按3、6和12 mg?kg~(-1)3个剂量水平灌胃染毒小鼠7 d,以脑组织匀浆测定活性氧(Reactive oxygen species,ROS)、还原型谷胱甘肽(Glutathione,GSH)和丙二醛(Malondialdehyde,MDA)的含量,以脑细胞测定DNA-蛋白质交联(DNA-protein Crosslink,DPC)系数.实验结果表明,随着毒死蜱染毒剂量的升高,ROS和MDA含量及DPC系数逐渐上升,GSH含量逐渐降低,各指标呈一定的剂量-效应关系.染毒剂量为6 mg?kg~(-1)时,与对照组相比,DPC有显著差异(p<0.05),MDA有极显著差异(p<0.01);染毒剂量为12 mg?kg~(-1)时,与对照组相比,ROS和DPC有显著差异(p<0.05),GSH和MDA有极显著差异(p<0.01).说明较高剂量的毒死蜱可造成小鼠脑组织的氧化损伤和DNA-蛋白质交联作用增强.

摘要:
Objective: Asthma is a complex pulmonary inflammatory disease characterized by the hyper-responsiveness, remodeling and inflammation of airways. Formaldehyde is a common indoor air pollutant that can cause asthma in people experiencing long-term exposure. The irritant effect and adjuvant effect are the two possible pathways of formaldehyde promoted asthma. Methodology/Principal Findings: To explore the neural mechanisms and adjuvant effect of formaldehyde, 48 Balb/c mice in six experimental groups were exposed to (a) vehicle control; (b) ovalbumin; (c) formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m(3)); (d) ovalbumin+formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m(3)); (e) ovalbumin+formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m(3))+HC-030031 (transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 antagonist); (f) ovalbumin+formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m(3))+capsazepine (transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 antagonist). Experiments were conducted after 4 weeks of combined exposure and 1-week challenge with aerosolized ovalbumin. Airway hyper-responsiveness, pulmonary tissue damage, eosinophil infiltration, and increased levels of interleukin-4, interleukin-6, interleukin-1 beta, immunoglobulin E, substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide in lung tissues were found in the ovalbumin+formaldehyde (3.0 mg/m(3)) group compared with the values seen in ovalbumin -only immunized mice. Except for interleukin-1 beta levels, other changes in the levels of biomarker could be inhibited by HC-030031 and capsazepine. Conclusions/Significance: Formaldehyde might be a key risk factor for the rise in asthma cases. Transient receptor potential ion channels and neuropeptides have important roles in formaldehyde promoted-asthma.

摘要:
To compare the cytotoxicity on HeLa cells induced by nanosized and microsized tellurium powders, HeLa cells were exposed to different concentrations of tellurium powders (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 μg/mL) for 12 h. In this study, detection of a series of biomarkers, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH), 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), in addition to DNA and protein crosslink (DPC) and MTTassay, were conducted to evaluate the cytotoxicity. It is indicated that compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the induced cytotoxicity at concentrations lower than 50 μg/mL for both nanosized and microsized tellurium powders. While there appears a significant difference in the induced cytotoxicity for nanosized tellurium powders when the concentration is higher than 100 μg/mL as well as for microsized tellurium powders when the concentration is higher than 200 μg/mL. Moreover, it is found that the cytotoxicity induced on HeLa cells exhibits a certain dose-effect relationship with the concentration of tellurium powders. A conclusion has been reached that the toxicity on HeLa cells can be induced by both nanosized and microsized tellurium powders, and the toxicity of the nanosized tellurium powders is significantly greater than the microsized one. © 2013 Higher Education Press and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

摘要:
Indoor environmental quality is suspected to be at least part of the cause of the increasing prevalence of childhood asthma and allergy. This study is part of the China, Children, Homes, Health (CCHH) project, which was designed to identify the risk factors indoors that are associated with prevalence of asthma and allergy among children in China. A cross-sectional questionnaire study was carried out in Wuhan in 2011. The questionnaire was a modified (to Chinese building characteristics) version of a questionnaire used first in Sweden. The parents of 2193 children, aged 1-8 years, replied, a response rate of 91.4% (2193/2400). Prevalences of asthma and allergic symptoms were calculated, and a Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression were used to identify risk factors. Prevalences of health outcomes are "wheezing last 12 months" 18.5%, "cough at night last 12 months" 15.4%, "doctor-diagnosed asthma" 6.0%, "rhinitis last 12 months" 48.7%, "doctor-diagnosed allergic rhinitis" 17.5%. Factors associated with increased risk for asthma, allergy and related symptoms include living in an urban area, dampness (significant), use of gas for cooking, new dwelling decoration (paint and furniture obtained during pregnancy), keeping pets and breast feeding less than 3 months. Factors associated with reduced risk as installing an exhaust fan in the bathroom. Home environmental factors are significantly associated with the prevalence of childhood asthma and rhinitis in Wuhan. Urbanization and dampness problems at home are significant risk factors for doctor diagnosed asthma and allergic rhinitis among children in Wuhan. © 2013 The Author(s).
