摘要:
Heavy metal ions are a class of pollutant with serious threat to ecosystem and human health. To recognize effectively heavy metal ions, some functional nucleic acids (FNAs) are fabricated to serve as recognition element in biosensors. However, there are some challenges that limit the sensitivity of FNAs-based biosensors for the detection of heavy metal ions, such as extremely low abundance and wide concentration range. Nucleic acid amplification is an effective signal amplification technique. Among these methods, alternative to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) acting as gold standard, isothermal amplification strategies have been applied widely in FNAs-based biosensors due to the charming property of lower costs, higher robustness, better reproducibility and more comfortable conditions. In this review, we firstly summarize the different types of FNAs-based biosensors for heavy metal ions detection. Then, we focus on isothermal amplification strategies applied in heavy metal ions FNAs-based biosensors. Finally, we present our perspectives on future advances and challenges of the biosensors with isothermal amplification for heavy metal ions detection.

3D human brain organoids;Neurotoxicity
摘要:
Neurotoxicity studies aim at understanding the toxic effects and mechanisms of toxicants to human central nervous systems (CNS). However, human brains are the most complex organs, whereas the most commonly used models, such as 2D cell cultures and animal brains, are probably too simple to predict the responses of human brains. Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)-based 3D human brain organoids hold unprecedented promise for the understanding of neurodevelopment and brain disease development. This review summarizes recent advances of using 3D human brain organoids for neurotoxicity studies. Comparative studies showed that 3D human brain organoids could support the findings obtained by animal or cohort studies, indicating that 3D human brain organoids are reliable models to evaluate the developmental neurotoxicity. 3D human brain organoids have been used to understand the toxicological mechanisms by using both conventional toxicological methods to investigate the signaling pathway changes as well as single cell RNA-sequencing to understand the neuron diversity. Some studies also used brain organoids carrying gene mutations or with virus infections to understand the toxicological responses of brains under diseased conditions. Although there are still limitations associated, 3D human brain organoids are promising tools for future neurotoxicity studies.

摘要:
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), recently re-defined and re-classified as metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), has become increasingly prevalent and emerged as a public health problem worldwide. To date, the precise pathogenic mechanisms underpinning MAFLD are not entirely understood, and there is no effective pharmacological therapy for NAFLD/MAFLD. As a newly discovered form of iron-dependent programmed cell death, ferroptosis can be involved in the development and progression of various chronic diseases, but the pathogenic connections and mechanisms that link MAFLD and ferroptosis have not been fully elucidated. The main characteristics of ferroptosis are the accumulation of lipid peroxides and reactive oxygen species. In this brief narrative review, the mechanisms of ferroptosis and its putative pathogenic role in MAFLD are discussed to highlight potential new research directions and ideas for the prevention and treatment of MAFLD.

摘要:
Obesity, a metabolic disease caused by excessive fat accumulation in the body, has attracted worldwide attention. Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is a hepatotoxic cyanotoxin which has been reportedly to cause lipid metabolism disorder. In this study, C57BL/6J mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for eight weeks to build obese an animal model, and subsequently, the obese mice were fed MC-LR for another eight weeks, and we aimed to determine how MC-LR exposure affects the liver lipid metabolism in high-fat-diet-induced obese mice. The results show that MC-LR increased the obese mice serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), indicating damaged liver function. The lipid parameters include serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), and liver TG, which were all increased, whilst the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) was decreased. Furthermore, after MC-LR treatment, histopathological observation revealed that the number of red lipid droplets increased, and that steatosis was more severe in the obese mice. In addition, the lipid synthesis-related genes were increased and the fatty acid beta-oxidation-related genes were decreased in the obese mice after MC-LR exposure. Meanwhile, the protein expression levels of phosphorylation phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (p-PI3K), phosphorylation protein kinase B (p-AKT), phosphorylation mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR), and sterol regulatory element binding protein 1c (SREBP1-c) were increased; similarly, the p-PI3K/PI3K, p-AKT/AKT, p-mTOR/mTOR, and SREBP1/beta-actin were significantly up-regulated in obese mice after being exposed to MC-LR, and the activated PI3K/AKT/mTOR/SREBP1 signaling pathway. In addition, MC-LR exposure reduced the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and increased the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in the obese mice's serum. In summary, the MC-LR could aggravate the HFD-induced obese mice liver lipid metabolism disorder by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR/SREBP1 signaling pathway to hepatocytes, increasing the SREBP1-c-regulated key enzymes for lipid synthesis, and blocking fatty acid beta-oxidation.

摘要:
Iron-doped carbon dots (Fe-CDs) were greenly synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using the eco-friendly materials milk powder and FeCl3. It was found that the synthesized biomass Fe-CDs have photoluminescence properties and strong mimetic oxidase activity, which enables catalysis of the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to produce a blue product, oxidized TMB (oxTMB). The presence of ascorbic acid (AA) could reduce the oxTMB and make the solution color lighter to realize the colorimetric determination of AA. In addition, the absorption peak of the oxTMB generated at 370 nm overlaps with the excitation spectrum of Fe-CDs, and oxTMB quenched the fluorescence of Fe-CDs based on the internal filtration effect (IFE). The presence of AA will reduce oxTMB and restore the fluorescence of Fe-CDs, and the change of fluorescence intensity is positively correlated with the concentration of AA. Accordingly, a novel method for colorimetric/fluorometric dual-signal detection of AA was developed. The linear range of the colorimetric assay was 25.0–500.0 μM, and the detection limit was 8.59 μM. The linear range of the fluorometric assay was 20.0–500.0 μM with an LOD of 5.13 μM. The method took advantage of different signals to achieve complementarity and eliminate false positives of single signals and improve the accuracy with great application prospects in the detection of AA.

摘要:
In the global context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the overall benefits of getting any COVID-19 vaccine approved by the World Health Organization for emergency use outweigh the potential risks, even in people with weakened immune systems, including people living with HIV (PLWH). At present, there are no reports of HIV/hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infected patients receiving a booster dose of the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine. Here, we describe a patient with HIV/HBV co-infection who did not seroconvert to three doses of the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine.
