Abstract

SUMMARY: Iron deficiency is a major constraint for plant growth in calcareous soils. The interplay between NO3− and Fe nutrition affects plant performance under Fe‐deficient conditions. However, how NO3− negatively regulates Fe nutrition at the molecular level in plants remains elusive. Here, we showed that the key nitrate transporter NRT1.1 in Arabidopsis plants, especially in the shoots, was markedly downregulated at post‐translational levels by Fe deficiency. However, loss of NRT1.1 function alleviated Fe deficiency chlorosis, suggesting that downregulation of NRT1.1 by Fe deficiency favors plant tolerance to Fe deficiency. Further analysis showed that although disruption of NRT1.1 did not alter Fe levels in both the shoots and roots, it improved the reutilization of apoplastic Fe in shoots but not in roots. In addition, disruption of NRT1.1 prevented Fe deficiency‐induced apoplastic alkalization in shoots by inhibiting apoplastic H+ depletion via NO3− uptake. In vitro analysis showed that reduced pH facilitates release of cell wall‐bound Fe. Thus, foliar spray with an acidic buffer promoted the reutilization of Fe in the leaf apoplast to enhance plant tolerance to Fe deficiency, while the opposite was true for the foliar spray with a neutral buffer. Thus, downregulation of the shoot‐part function of NRT1.1 prevents apoplastic alkalization to ensure the reutilization of apoplastic Fe under Fe‐deficient conditions. Our findings may provide a basis for elucidating the link between N and Fe nutrition in plants and insight to scrutinize the relevance of shoot‐expressed NRT1.1 to the plant response to stress.

Abstract

The adsorption characteristics and mechanisms of modified sepiolite as an adsorbent to recover Pd(II) from acidic solutions were studied. The Pd(II) adsorption properties were analysed through isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic models. In addition, SEM−EDS, TEM and XPS were applied to investigating the Pd(II) adsorption mechanisms onto modified sepiolite. The equilibrium data were well fitted to Langmuir isotherm model with maximum Pd(II) adsorption capacity of 322.58 mg/g at 30 degrees C. The kinetic data could be satisfactorily simulated by the pseudo-second order model, indicating that the rate-controlling step was chemical adsorption. 99% of Pd(II) could be recovered using 1 g/l modified sepiolite when initial concentration of Pd(II) was 100 mg/l. The results of reusability studies indicated the modified sepiolite had an acceptable stability and reusability. This study indicated that the modified sepiolite might be an efficient and cost-effective material for Pd(II) recovery.

Abstract

The prevalence of fatty liver disease (FLD), a chronic disorder that includes alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) ranges from 1% to 50% and varies with age, gender and occupation in different districts of China. Some studies have shown that FLD especially NAFLD, has a relationship with cardiac disease, metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia and obesity. To determine the prevalence of FLD and related diseases in the Dehui City of Jilin Province in the Northeastern region of China, we surveyed the population of Dehui City of Jilin Province in China. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of FLD in relation to different factors, such as age, location, occupations and educational levels, and analyze the risk factors of FLD. The study sample was separated into three groups according to alcohol consumption: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and suspected alcoholic liver disease (SALD) groups. All subjects (18- 78 years) completed a standard questionnaire, physical examination and hepatic ultrasound examination. Multivariate logistic regression was used to screen risk factors of FLD. The study indicated that the prevalence of FLD was 23.1%, strati ed by NAFLD 14.5%, SALD 5.5% and ALD 3.0%. This survey showed a lower prevalence of hypertension between NAFLD and other groups (P, The Journal of Global Health at Columbia University, Vol. 6 No. 2 (2016): Fall 2016

44. Lactational Breast Abscesses Caused by Methicillin-Resistant or Methicillin-Sensitive Staphylococcus aureusInfection and Therapeutic Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Aspiration

Abstract

Background and Objective:We investigated whether (1) there are any differences in lactational breast abscesses between patients from whom methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) and those from whom methicillin-sensitive S. aureus(MSSA) were isolated from pus samples and (2) there are differences in the effects of ultrasound-guided aspiration.Materials and Methods:The clinical data of 171 patients with lactational breast abscesses treated by ultrasound-guided aspiration in Beijing from January to July 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into MSSA infection (N= 132) and MRSA infection (N= 39) groups according to their bacterial culture results. Abscess cavity location, abscess cavity number, maximum abscess cavity size, antibiotic utilization rate, and cure rate were compared between the groups. Cure rate refers to the proportion of the total number of cases remaining after the elimination of failed cases. The number of ultrasound-guided aspiration procedures performed for healing between the two groups was also compared.Results:There were no significant differences in abscess cavity location, abscess cavity amount, and abscess cavity size between both groups. The antibiotic utilization rate of the two groups were 58.3% (MSSA, 77/132) and 69.2% (MRSA, 27/39), respectively, and there were no significant differences between both groups. The cure rates of ultrasound-guided aspiration of the two groups were 97.7% (MSSA, 129/132) and 92.3% (MRSA, 36/39), and there were no significant differences between both groups. There were also no significant differences in the median number of aspiration performed for cure between the MRSA infection group (median = 3, range = 1–10) and the MSSA infection group (median = 3, range = 1–14).Conclusion:Lactational breast abscesses are the same irrespective of the type of S. aureusinfection. Treatment by ultrasound-guided aspiration for patients with MRSA infection can achieve the same effect as that for those with MSSA infection.

Abstract

Although the alteration of DNA methylation due to abiotic stresses, such as exposure to the toxic metal cadmium (Cd), has been often observed in plants, little is known about whether such epigenetic changes are linked to the ability of plants to adapt to stress. Herein, we report a close linkage between DNA methylation and the adaptational responses in Arabidopsis plants under Cd stress. Exposure to Cd significantly inhibited the expression of three DNA demethylase genes ROS1/DML2/DML3 (RDD) and elevated DNA methylation at the genome‐wide level in Col‐0 roots. Furthermore, the profile of DNA methylation in Cd‐exposed Col‐0 roots was similar to that in the roots of rdd triple mutants, which lack RDD, indicating that Cd‐induced DNA methylation is associated with the inhibition of RDD. Interestingly, the elevation in DNA methylation in rdd conferred a higher tolerance against Cd stress and improved cellular Fe nutrition in the root tissues. In addition, lowering the Fe supply abolished improved Cd tolerance due to the lack of RDD in rdd. Together, these data suggest that the inhibition of RDD‐mediated DNA demethylation in the roots by Cd would in turn enhance plant tolerance to Cd stress by improving Fe nutrition through a feedback mechanism. Cadmium stress resulted in an increase in global genome‐wide DNA methylation by inhibiting the DNA demethylases ROS1/DML2/DML3 in roots of Arabidopsis plants, which improved the iron nutrition in roots, thus, resulting in an improvement of Cd tolerance in the plants.
