Serum cardiovascular-related metabolites disturbance exposed to different heavy metal exposure scenarios.

ABSTRACT: Health effects induced by heavy metal components of particulate matter need further research. A total of 32 healthy volunteers were recruited to walk for 4 h in two different exposure scenarios in Wuhan from May 1 to Jun 30, 2019. Metabolomics technology was used to identify serum cardiovascular-related metabolites disturbance, and the health risk assessment model was employed to assess the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks associated with airborne heavy metals. The results showed that the average mass concentrations of Co, Ni, Cd, Cu, Ag and Ba in PM₁₀ from May 1 to Jun 30, 2019 were 0.22, 0.49, 11.53, 2.23, 34.47 and 4.19 ng/m³, respectively, and were 0.86, 128.47, 291.85, 291.94, 98.55 and 422.62 ng/m³ in PM_2.5, respectively. Healthy young adults briefly exposed to heavy metals were associated with serum cardiovascular-related metabolites disturbance, including increased SM(d18:1/17:0) and Sphingomyelin, and decreased GlcCer(d16:1/18:0) and Galabiosylceramide, simultaneously accompanied by activation of the sphingolipid metabolism pathway. Non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks of airborne heavy metals via the inhalation route were observed, Ni and Cd most influenced to potential health risks. Findings indicated exposure to increment of heavy metals may increase health risks by causing cardiovascular-related metabolites disturbance via activating the sphingolipid metabolism pathway.

LATS regulates heavy metal response

Project description:Heavy metals are essential integral parts of cells and environmental toxicants, whose deregulation is associated with severe cellular dysfunction and various diseases. The Hippo pathway plays a critical role in organ size control and cancer development. In this study, we use RNA-Seq to investigate the role of the Hippo pathway in regulating heavy metal response gene transcription. Specifically, the difference of transcriptional profiles between the wild-type and the Hippo pathway kinases LATS1/2-deficient HEK293A cells was examined under control- and heavy metals zinc and cadimuim treated-conditions.

Multiple biomarker responses (serum biochemistry, oxidative stress, genotoxicity and histopathology) in Channa punctatus exposed to heavy metal loaded waste water.

Project description:Experiments were conducted to investigate the health of fish Channa punctatus inhabiting heavy metal-loaded waste water. Heavy metals in the order of Fe > Mn > Zn > Co > Ni > Cu = Cr were present in the waste water. Gills had high metal load followed by liver and then kidney. Albumin, albumin to globulin (A:G) ratio, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) were found to be lower but phospholipid, low density lipoprotein (LDL), total protein, lipid and cholesterol were higher as compared to the reference. Oxidative stress markers such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione S transferase (GST) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) were significantly higher in all tissues, whereas reduced glutathione (GSH) levels were comparatively low. Damage to DNA was observed with significantly higher mean tail length of comets in the exposed fish gill cells (30.9 µm) followed by liver (24.3 µm) and kidney (20.6 µm) as compared to reference fish (5.2, 4.8 and 5.9 µm respectively). Histopathology in gill, liver and kidney also showed marked damage. Integrated biochemical, oxidative stress, genotoxicity and histopathological findings are valuable biomarkers for native fish adaptive patterns, and monitoring of water quality/pollution of freshwater ecosystems.

Exposure to the heavy metal lead induces DNA copy number alterations in zebrafish cells

Project description:DNA copy number variants (CNVs) are associated with the development of complex neurological diseases and disorders including autism spectrum disorder, schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease. Exposure to multiple environmental chemicals including various heavy metals is suggested as a risk factor in these neurological diseases and disorders, but few studies have addressed if heavy metal exposure can result in spontaneous DNA copy number changes as a genetic mechanism contributing to these disease outcomes. In this study to further investigate the relationship between heavy metal exposure and spontaneous copy number alterations (CNAs), zebrafish fibroblast cells were exposed to the neurotoxicant lead (Pb). A crystal violet assay was first used to determine exposure concentrations with greater than 80% cell confluency. Then a zebrafish-specific array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) platform was used to detect CNAs following a 72 hour Pb exposure (0.24, 2.4, or 24 μM). The Pb exposure resulted in 72 CNA amplifications ranging in size from 5 to 329 kb. No deletions were detected. CNAs resulted in 15 copy number alteration regions (CNARs), leaving 7 singlet CNAs. Two of the singlets were within high repeat genomic locations. The number of CNAs tended to increase in a concentration dependent manner. Several CNARs encompassed genes previously reported to have altered expression with Pb exposure, suggesting a mechanistic link. In addition, almost all genes are associated within a molecular network with the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Overall, these findings show that Pb exposure results in spontaneous CNAs that could serve as a mechanism driving adverse health outcomes associated with Pb toxicity including neurological disease pathogenesis for further study.

Heavy Metal Exposure Influences Double Strand Break DNA Repair Outcomes.

Project description:Heavy metals such as cadmium, arsenic and nickel are classified as carcinogens. Although the precise mechanism of carcinogenesis is undefined, heavy metal exposure can contribute to genetic damage by inducing double strand breaks (DSBs) as well as inhibiting critical proteins from different DNA repair pathways. Here we take advantage of two previously published culture assay systems developed to address mechanistic aspects of DNA repair to evaluate the effects of heavy metal exposures on competing DNA repair outcomes. Our results demonstrate that exposure to heavy metals significantly alters how cells repair double strand breaks. The effects observed are both specific to the particular metal and dose dependent. Low doses of NiCl2 favored resolution of DSBs through homologous recombination (HR) and single strand annealing (SSA), which were inhibited by higher NiCl2 doses. In contrast, cells exposed to arsenic trioxide preferentially repaired using the "error prone" non-homologous end joining (alt-NHEJ) while inhibiting repair by HR. In addition, we determined that low doses of nickel and cadmium contributed to an increase in mutagenic recombination-mediated by Alu elements, the most numerous family of repetitive elements in humans. Sequence verification confirmed that the majority of the genetic deletions were the result of Alu-mediated non-allelic recombination events that predominantly arose from repair by SSA. All heavy metals showed a shift in the outcomes of alt-NHEJ repair with a significant increase of non-templated sequence insertions at the DSB repair site. Our data suggest that exposure to heavy metals will alter the choice of DNA repair pathway changing the genetic outcome of DSBs repair.

Discriminating between Different Heavy Metal Ions with Fullerene-Derived Nanoparticles.

Project description:A novel type of graphene-like nanoparticle, synthesized by oxidation and unfolding of C60 buckminsterfullerene fullerene, showed multiple and reproducible sensitivity to Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, and As(III) through different degrees of fluorescence quenching or, in the case of Cd2+, through a remarkable fluorescence enhancement. Most importantly, only for Cu2+ and Pb2+, the fluorescence intensity variations came with distinct modifications of the optical absorption spectrum. Time-resolved fluorescence study confirmed that the common origin of these diverse behaviors lies in complexation of the metal ions by fullerene-derived carbon layers, even though further studies are required for a complete explanation of the involved processes. Nonetheless, the different response of fluorescence and optical absorbance towards distinct cationic species makes it possible to discriminate between the presence of Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, and As(III), through two simple optical measurements. To this end, the use of a three-dimensional calibration plot is discussed. This property makes fullerene-derived nanoparticles a promising material in view of the implementation of a selective, colorimetric/fluorescent detection system.
