富里酸和Ca^(2+)共存对嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌介导生成次生高铁矿物的影响

为揭示富里酸和Ca^(2+)共存对嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌(Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans)氧化酸性矿山废水(AMD)中的Fe^(2+)和形成次生高铁矿物的影响,分析了pH、Fe^(2+)氧化率、铁沉淀率以及次生高铁矿物矿相、基团等相关指标。结果表明,Ca^(2+)确实具有提高嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌氧化Fe^(2+)的能力。低质量浓度(0.2 g/L)的富里酸对嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌活性的提高具有促进作用,高质量浓度(0.4 g/L)的富里酸具有抑制作用,而增加Ca^(2+)反过来能够减弱高浓度富里酸对嗜酸性氧化亚铁硫杆菌的抑制作用。对形成的次生高铁矿物进行X射线衍射(XRD)和傅立叶红外光谱(FTIR)分析,结果表明高浓度富里酸促进了另一次生高铁矿物草黄铁矾的生成。

Ca^(2+)-ATPase参与植物耐盐性调控的研究进展

盐胁迫下细胞质Ca^(2+)浓度升高,细胞会激活Ca^(2+)调节的靶酶或者与Ca^(2+)高度亲和的受体蛋白,其中,与Ca^(2+)高度亲和的受体蛋白中,植物钙泵(Ca^(2+)-ATPase)是P型ATP酶,包含内质网Ca^(2+)-ATPases与质膜Ca^(2+)-ATPas‐es,通过主动运输将Ca^(2+)从细胞质转移到质外体或细胞器。大量研究表明,植物的耐盐性在很大程度上与其维持钙泵即Ca^(2+)-ATPase活性的能力有关。多种植物Ca^(2+)-ATPase对盐胁迫表现出敏感性,并受到外源Ca^(2+)的保护,表明外源钙处理与Ca^(2+)-ATPase活性可能在盐胁迫下的细胞内钙稳态和信号转导中起重要作用。该研究概述了植物Ca^(2+)-ATPase类型、结构与性质,亚细胞定位Ca^(2+)-ATPase及外源钙与亚细胞定位Ca^(2+)-ATPase参与植物耐盐调控研究进展,重点对质膜、液泡膜、核膜、内质网及高尔基体Ca^(2+)-ATPases参与植物耐盐调控的研究进展进行了综述,并提出展望。该研究为了解植物耐盐性生理及分子机制提供帮助,同时为作物耐盐栽培提供新思路。

复合混凝剂中Ca^(2+)对高溶解态磷坑塘水混凝效果的影响

文章以Ca^(2+)改性后的AlCl_(3)和PACl作为混凝剂进行混凝实验,通过出水浊度、余铝、总磷、絮体粒径及有机物组成等分析改性后混凝剂的作用机理,探讨混凝剂中存在的Ca^(2+)对高磷坑塘水混凝效果的影响机制。浊度去除方面,低投加量下Ca^(2+)可明显降低出水浊度。当投加量为0.10 mmol/L时,PACl出水浊度下降了33.52 NTU,AlCl_(3)出水浊度下降了28.72 NTU。余铝去除方面,当AlCl_(3)作混凝剂时,Ca^(2+)可以通过增加混凝剂的电中和能力来降低出水余铝浓度。溶解态磷去除方面,Ca^(2+)与磷酸根反应或通过压缩双电层和吸附电中和作用来增加溶解态磷的去除率。当投加量为0.20 mmol/L时,Ca^(2+)浓度为0.9 mmol/L,PACl溶解态磷去除率较未改性前提高16.1%。絮体粒径方面,Ca^(2+)可以促进颗粒之间脱稳凝聚,增加絮体粒径和分形维数,AlCl_(3)在0.20 mmol/L投加量下絮体粒径增加79μm。并且Ca^(2+)的加入使AlCl_(3)生成的絮体抗剪切能力更强,但是絮体受到破坏后更不容易恢复,使PACl形成絮体强度因子和恢复因子变大。有机物去除方面,Ca^(2+)可以提高有机物的去除率。对于0.20 mmol/L投加量,Ca^(2+)为0.06 mmol/L投加量条件下AlCl_(3)改性后混凝剂荧光响应值由1100降至800。

Synergistic strengthening mechanism of Ca^(2+)-sodium silicate to selective separation of feldspar and quartz

Inhibitors are important for flotation separation of quartz and feldspar.In this study,a novel combined inhibitor was used to separate quartz and feldspar in near-neutral pulp.Selective inhibition of the combined inhibitor was assessed by micro-flotation experiments.And a series of detection methods were used to detect differences in the surface properties of feldspars and quartz after flotation reagents and put forward the synergistic strengthening mechanism.The outcomes were pointed out that pre-mixing combined inhibitors were more effective than the addition of Ca^(2+)and SS in sequence under the optimal proportion of 1:5.A concentrate from artificial mixed minerals that was characterized by a high quartz grade and a high recovery was acquired,and was found to be 90.70wt% and 83.70%,respectively.It was demonstrated that the combined inhibitor selectively prevented the action of the collector and feldspar from Fourier-transform infrared(FT-IR)and adsorption capacity tests.The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)indicated that Ca^(2+)directly interacts with the surface of quartz to increase the adsorption of collectors.In contrast,the chemistry property of Al on the feldspar surface was altered by combined inhibitor due to Na^(+)and Ca^(2+)taking the place of K^(+),resulting in the composite inhibitor forms a hydrophilic structure,which prevents the adsorption of the collector on the surface of feldspar by interacting with the Al active site.The combination of Ca^(2+)and SS synergically strengthens the difference of collecting property between quartz and feldspar by collector,thus achieving the effect of efficient separation.A new strategy for flotation to separate quartz from feldspar in near-neutral pulp was provided.

Functions and mechanisms of cytosolic phospholipase A_(2)in central nervous system trauma

Central nervous system(CNS)trauma,including traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury,has a high rate of disability and mortality,and effective treatment is currently lacking.Previous studies have revealed that neural inflammation plays a vital role in CNS trauma.As the initial enzyme in neuroinflammation,cytosolic phospholipase A_(2)(cPLA2)can hydrolyze membranous phosphatides at the sn-2 position in a preferential way to release lysophospholipids andω3-polyunsaturated fatty acid dominated by arachidonic acid,thereby inducing secondary injuries.Although there is substantial fresh knowledge pertaining to cPLA2,in-depth comprehension of how cPLA2 participates in CNS trauma and the potential methods to amelio rate the clinical res ults after CNS trauma are still insufficient.The present review summarizes the latest understanding of how cPLA2 participates in CNS trauma,highlighting novel findings pertaining to how cPLA2 activation initiates the potential mechanisms specifically,neuroinflammation,lysosome membrane functions,and autophagy activity,that damage the CNS after trauma.Moreover,we focused on testing a variety of drugs capable of inhibiting cPLA2 or the upstream pathway,and we explored how those agents might be utilized as treatments to improve the results following CNS trauma.This review aimed to effectively understand the mechanism of cPLA2 activation and its role in the pathophysiological processes of CNS trauma and provide clarification and a new referential framework for future research.

Changes of cytosolic [Ca^(2+)]i in neutrophils in pancreatic microcirculation of rats with caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis under fluid shear stress

AIM: To investigate the fluid shear stress induced changes of [Ca^2+]i in neutrophils in pancreatic microcirculation of experimental acute pancreatitis (AP).METHODS: Wistar rats (n = 36) were randomized into three groups. A model of AP was established by subcutaneous injection of caerulein. Low-shear 30 viscometer was used to provide steady fluid shear stress on separated neutrophils. The mean fluorescent intensity tested by flow cytometry was used as the indication of [Ca2+]i quantity.RESULTS: Under steady shear, cytosolic [Ca^2+]i showed biphasic changes. The shear rate changed from low to high, [Ca^2+]i in different groups decreased slightly and then increased gradually to a high level (P<0.05). A close correlation was observed between the cytosolic [Ca^2+]i level and the alteration of fluid shear stress in regional microcirculation of AP. CONCLUSION: The increase of [Ca^2+]i is highly related to the activation of neutrophils, which contributes to neutrophil adhesion to endothelium in the early phase of AP. The effect of fluid shear stress on [Ca^2+]i may play a crucial role in pancreatic microcirculatory failure of AP.

Objectives To investigate the effects of β2-adrenergic antagonist on cytosolic Ca^2 ＋ （[Ca^2＋ ]i） in ventricular myocytes from infarcted rat heart. Methods A ligature was placed around left anterior descending coronary artery of rat hearts. Rats in the control group were sham-operated. Cardiomyocytes were dissociated at two, four, eight weeks after myocardial infarction （MI） and [Ca^2＋]i was measured via fura-2 fluorescence. The response of cardiomyocytes to isoproterenol in presence or absence of betal-adrenergic antagonist atenolol, beta2-adrenergic antagonist ICI118, 551 or non-selective β1, 2- adrenergic antagonists propranolol was examined. Results The followings were found that ICI 118, 551 had no significant effects on the rise of [Ca^2＋]i induced by isoproterenol in normal ventricular myocytes （P 〉 0.05）, ICI118, 551 only significantly attenuated the rise of [Ca^2＋]i induced by isoproterenol at four weeks and eight weeks after MI （24.5%±5.7% vs 57.8% ± 13.2%, P〈 0.01; 12.2%±7.9% vs 44.6%±11.3%, P〈 0.01）. Atenolol had suppressive effects only in the control group and the post-MI group of two weeks （P 〈 0.05）, and propranolol had suppressive effects in the control and all the three post-MI groups （P 〈 0.01）. Conclusions Beta2-adrenergic antagonist ICI118, 551 may exert negative effects on Ca^2＋ overload initiated by sympathetic stimulation after MI.

苜蓿体内H_(2)S信号与Ca^(2+)调节气孔运动的作用机制

为探究H_(2)S信号在苜蓿(Medicago sativa)体内调节气孔运动的作用,及在此过程中H_(2)S与Ca^(2+)的关系,以蒺藜苜蓿(Medicago truncatula)的野生型和钙离子转运体突变体为试验材料,分别从转录水平、细胞水平和生理水平开展研究。采用qRT-PCR比较相关基因的表达量变化、荧光探针显示体内Ca^(2+)含量、电极法测定H_(2)S含量、光学显微镜观察和测量气孔孔径等。结果表明:蒺藜苜蓿突变体NF3011和NF2734体内H_(2)S的含量与野生型相比极显著降低(P<0.01);H_(2)S信号在一定程度上抑制钙离子转运体编码基因MTR_6g027580的表达;外源生理浓度H_(2)S熏蒸可诱导蒺藜苜蓿气孔关闭,与Ca^(2+)通道阻断剂LaCl_(3)联合处理对野生型气孔运动未产生影响,而在突变体中的结果截然相反;利用荧光探针测定保卫细胞内的Ca^(2+)含量,所得结果与气孔孔径的变化规律完全一致。综上所述,H_(2)S信号促进叶片保卫细胞内Ca^(2+)的含量增加,最终表现为植物气孔孔径变小,在此过程中胞内Ca^(2+)含量变化主要通过Ca^(2+)转运体进行,少部分依赖Ca^(2+)离子通道。该研究结果不仅在理论上丰富了H_(2)S信号的作用机制,更具应用于苜蓿生产实践并推广于其他作物的潜力。

Tityus serrulatus venom and its toxins Ts1 and Ts5 increase cytosolic Ca^(2+)concentration in isolated vascular smooth muscle cells

Voltage-gated Na+ channel (Nav channel) scorpion toxins are classified as α- and β-neurotoxins. Ts5 (α-neurotoxin) and Ts1 (β-neurotoxin) from Tityus serrulatus venom (TsV) interact with Nav channels, increasing Na+ influx and activating voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels. This study aimed to investigate the effect of TsV, Ts1 and Ts5 on the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]C) in rat aortic smooth muscle cells. Toxins were isolated by ion exchange chromatography (Ts1) followed by RP-HPLC (Ts5). The rat aortic smooth muscle cells were isolated in Hanks buffer pH 7.4 and loaded with 5 μmol/L of Fura-2AM (45 minutes at 37℃), in order to measure [Ca2+]C by fluorescence of Fura-2/AM (ratio 340/380 nm). The fluorescence was measured in one single cell (excitation: 340 and 380 nm;emission: 510 nm). TsV (100 and 500 mg/mL) and its toxins Ts1 and Ts5 (50 and 100 mg/mL each) led to a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca2+]C. Tetrodotoxin (1 mmol/L), a Nav channel blocker, and verapamil (1 mmol/L), a voltage-operated Ca2+ channel blocker, inhibited the increase in [Ca2+]C induced by TsV (500 mg/mL). In conclusion, TsV and its toxins induce a concentration-dependent increase in [Ca2+]C that probably occurs through interaction with Nav channels, thus inducing depolarization and consequent Ca2+ influx. This assumption is based on the fact that this effect is inhibited by tetrodotoxin and verapamil, showing a direct action of TsV toxins on aorta smooth muscle cells.

Ca^(2+)对3Cr钢在CO_(2)环境中腐蚀行为的影响

随着油气开发进入到高含水期,高Ca^(2+)、高Cl-的地层水环境对管柱的安全服役提出了更高的要求。采用高温高压釜模拟井下流态环境,结合电化学研究结果,分析了Ca^(2+)浓度和暴露时间对3Cr钢腐蚀行为的影响。结果表明:尽管Ca^(2+)的存在会促使溶液酸化,但3Cr钢在含Ca^(2+)溶液中的腐蚀速率更多取决于试样表面的膜层质量。当溶液中总Cl-浓度为128000 mg/L,Ca^(2+)浓度在0~3600 mg/L的范围内时,3Cr钢在Ca^(2+)浓度为1080 mg/L时平均失重速率最大,为2.2 mm/a。在Ca^(2+)含量为180 mg/L的环境中,3Cr钢的失重速率曲线显示3Cr钢的失重速率随时间呈反“V”变化趋势,当腐蚀时间为240 h时,试样的平均失重速率达到最大值。当将3Cr钢放入通入CO_(2)的含有Ca^(2+)的溶液中时,3Cr钢表面形成Fe_(x)Ca_(1-x)CO_(3)化合物,Fe/Ca之间并无严格的比例,产物形态取决于溶液中的Ca^(2+)含量。
