Project description:For environmental safety, the high concentration of heavy metals in the soil should be removed. Cadmium (Cd), one of the heavy metals polluting the soil while its concentration exceeds 3.4 mg/kg in soil. Potential use of cotton for remediating heavy Cd-polluted soils is available while its molecular mechanisms of Cd tolerance remains unclear in cotton. In this study, transcriptome analysis was used to identify the Cd tolerance genes and their potential mechanism in cotton. Finally 4,627 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the root, 3,022 DEGs in the stem and 3,854 DEGs in leaves were identified through RNA-Seq analysis, respectively. These genes contained heavy metal transporter genes (ABC, CDF, HMA, etc.), annexin genes, heat shock genes (HSP) amongst others. Gene ontology (GO) analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly involved in the oxidation-reduction process and metal ion binding. The DEGs mainly enriched in two pathways, the influenza A and the pyruvate pathway. GhHMAD5 protein, containing a heavy-metal domain, was identified in the pathway to transport or to detoxify the heavy ion. GhHMAD5-overexpressed plants of Arabidopsis thaliana showed the longer roots compared with the control. Meanwhile, GhHMAD5-silenced cotton plants showed more sensitive to Cd stress compared with the control. The results indicated that GhHMAD5 gene is remarkably involved in Cd tolerance, which gives us a preliminary understanding of Cd tolerance mechanisms in upland cotton. Overall, this study provides valuable information for the use of cotton to remediate the soil polluted with heavy metals.

Project description:Gene expression can vary with the organisms' life stage. It is known that embryos can be more sensitive to toxicant exposure, as previously demonstrated for Enchytraeus crypticus (Oligochaeta) exposed to cadmium (Cd), known to cause embryotoxicity and hatching delay. It was shown that Ca enters embryos via the L-type Ca channels in the cocoon membrane, this being affected in Cd exposed embryos (Cd-Ca competition is well-known). In the present study, the embryotoxic mechanisms of Cd were studied via high-throughput gene expression for E. crypticus. Cocoons (1e2 days old), instead of the adult organism, were exposed in Cd spiked LUFA 2.2 soil during 1 day. Results showed that Cd affected Ca homeostasis which is implicated in several other molecular processes. Several of the major modulators of Cd toxicity (e.g., impaired gene expression, cell cycle arrest, DNA and mitochondrial damage) were identified in the embryos showing its relevancy as a model in ecotoxicogenomics. The draft Adverse Outcome Pathway was improved. Previously was hypothesized that gene regulation mechanisms were activated to synthesize more Ca channel proteins e this was confirmed here. Further, novel evidences were that, besides the extracellular competition, Cd competes intracellularly which causes a reduction in Ca efflux, and potentiates Cd embryotoxicity.

Project description:We report the transcriptional profile of phosphatidylserine (PS) positive and PS negative non-naive peripheral blood CD8 T cells from patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. PS+ CD8 T cells showed increased expression of cell cyclce and cell division associated genes and reduced expression of genes regulating translational initiation, when compared to PS- CD 8 T cells. Furthermore, PS+ CD8 T cells show increased expression of effector T cell genes.

Project description:The contamination of agricultural soil by heavy metal cadmium (Cd) poses a significant environmental challenge, affecting crop growth, development and, human health. Previous studies have established the pivotal role of the ZmHMA3 gene, a P-type ATPase heavy metal transporter, in determining variable Cd accumulation in maize grains among 513 inbred lines. To decipher the molecular mechanism underlying mutation-induced phenotypic differences mediated by ZmHMA3, we conducted a quantitative Tandem Mass Tag (TMT)-based proteomic analysis of immature maize kernels. This analysis aimed to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in wild-type B73 and zmhma3 null mutant under Cd stress. The findings demonstrated that zhma3 accumulated higher levels of Cd compared to B73 when exposed to varying Cd concentrations in the soil. In comparison to low Cd concentration soil, B73 and zmhma3 exhibited 75 and 142 DEPs, respectively, with 24 common DEPs shared between them. Zmhma3 showed a higher induction of upregulated genes related to Cd stres than B73. Amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism were specifically enriched in B73, while phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism, and glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism appeared to play a more significant role in zmhma3. This study provides proteomics insights into unraveling the molecular mechanism underlying the differences in Cd accumulation in maize kernel.

Project description:In this study, blueberry transcriptomics and rhizosphere fungal diversity were analyzed by simulated potting method to treat blueberries with Cd stress, and the content of Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn and Cd in each tissue, soil and DGT of blueberries were determined. , Combined with transcriptomics for correlation analysis. A total of 84374 annotated genes were obtained in blueberry roots, stems, leaves and fruits, of which 3370 DEGs were found, and DEGs in the stem accounted for the highest proportion, totaling 2521. The annotation results show that these DEGs are mainly concentrated in a series of metabolic pathways related to signal transduction, defense and pathogenic response. Blueberries transfer excess Cd from the root to the stem for storage. The stem contains the highest Cd content, which is consistent with the transcriptomics analysis results, while the fruit contains the lowest Cd content. Correlation analysis between heavy metal content and transcriptomics results in each tissue was carried out, and a series of genes related to Cd regulation were screened. The blueberry root system relies on mycorrhiza to absorb nutrients in the soil. The intervention of Cd has severely affected the microflora structure of the blueberry rhizosphere soil. Coniochaetaceae, which is extremely tolerant, has gradually become the dominant population.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play crucial roles in regulating the expression of various stress responses genes in plant. To investigate soybean (Glycine max) miRNAs involved in the response to cadmium (Cd), microarrays containing 953 unique miRNA probes were employed to identify differences in the expression patterns of the miRNA between different genotypes, Huaxia3 (HX3, Cd-tolerant) and Zhonghuang24 (ZH24, Cd-sensitive). A total of 26 Cd-responsive miRNAs were identified, of which nine were detected in both cultivars, while five were expressed only in HX3 and 12 were only in ZH24. In the study presented here, four root samples from two contrast soybean cultivars, HX3 (Cd-tolerant) and ZH24 (Cd-sensitive), with or without (Cd) cadmium, harvested at 6, 12, 24, 48, 96 and 144 h after the initiation of Cd treatment, was used to acquire expression profiles of a total of 953 unique genes, leading to the successful construction of supervised.

Project description:Boron (B) is an essential nutrient for normal growth of plants. Despite its low abundance in soils, B pollution and toxicity have been reported to increase in especially arid and semi-arid environments. Poplars are known to be tolerant species to B toxicity and accumulation. In the current study, physiological, transcriptomic and hormonal regulations behind B toxicity response were investigated comparatively in poplar species. Previously identified clones of Populus nigra (P.n) and Populus alba (P.a) having contrasting B accumulation and leaf B toxicity symptoms were treated with elevated soil B supply in a pot trial. The physiological results of treatment indicated better biomass growth, higher leaf chlorophyll content and more than three folds lower B accumulation in leaves of P.a compared to P.n. Microarray based transcriptomic analysis revealed 1902 and 1006 differentially regulated transcripts for the leaves and roots of P.a, respectively. Several transcripts responsible in salicylic acid (SA) production (salicylic acid binding protein 2) and SA dependent gene regulation (chitinases, proteases, lipases and protease inhibitors) were strongly upregulated specifically in P.a tissues under B toxicity. Furthermore, endogenous SA content in the roots and leaves of P.a increased with a soil B concentration-dependent manner while there was no significant alteration in the same hormone for P.n tissues under B toxicity. Therefore, increase in endogenous SA concentration was strongly attributed to lower B uptake and B toxicity tolerance in P.a. In addition to SA mediated gene regulation, genes responsible in external excretion process was also supposed to be functional in P.a for reduction of tissue B content under toxic conditions. On the other hand, transcriptome profiling of P.n under B toxicity revealed 1624 and 1419 altered transcripts for the leaves and roots, respectively. Specific induction in transcripts annotated to ATP binding cassette B type transporters, glutathione S transferases and metallochaperones in P.n were linked to internal excretion of excess B in the species that could be related with much higher B uptake from the roots, directional transport to the leaves and detoxification under toxic B conditions.

Project description:Diclofenac is widely used as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug leaving residues in the environment. To investigate effects on terrestrial ecosystems, we measured dissipation rate in soil and investigated ecotoxicological and transcriptome-wide responses in Folsomia candida. Exposure for 4 weeks to diclofenac reduced both survival and reproduction of F. candida in a dose-dependent manner. At concentrations ≥200 mg/kg soil diclofenac remained stable in the soil during a 21-day incubation period. Microarrays examined transcriptional changes at low and high diclofenac exposure concentrations. The results indicated that development and growth were severely hampered and immunity-related genes, mainly directed against bacteria and fungi, were significantly up-regulated. Furthermore, neural metabolic processes were significantly affected only at the high concentration. We conclude that diclofenac is toxic to non-target soil invertebrates, although its mode of action is different from the mammalian toxicity. The genetic markers proposed in this study may be promising early markers for diclofenac ecotoxicity.

Project description:Iron (Fe) is an essential element to plants, but can be harmful if accumulated to toxic concentrations. Fe toxicity can be a major nutritional disorder in rice (Oryza sativa) when cultivated under waterlogged conditions, as a result of excessive Fe solubilization of in the soil. However, little is known about the basis of Fe toxicity and tolerance at both physiological and molecular level. Here we aim at understand the genotypic differences in two rice cultivars with contrasting phenotypes under Fe toxicity.
