| 1 | Evaluation methods of heavy metal pollution in soils based on enzyme activities:A review显示文摘Soil enzyme activities have been suggested as suitable indicators for the evaluation of metal contamination because they are susceptible to microbial changes caused by heavy metal stress and are strictly related to soil nutrient cycles.However,there is a growing lack of recognition and summary of the historic advancements that use soil enzymology as the proposal of evaluation methods.Here,we review the most common methods of heavy metal pollution evaluation based on enzyme activities,which include single enzyme index,combined enzyme index,enzyme-based functional diversity index,microbiological stress index,and ecoenzymatic stoichiometry models.This review critically examines the advantages and disadvantages of these methods based on their execution complexity,performance,and ecological implications and gets a glimpse of avenues to come to improved future evaluation systems.Indices based on a single enzyme are variable and have no consistent response to soil heavy metals,and the following three composite indices are characterized by the loss of many critical microbial processes,which thus not conducive to reflect the effects of heavy metals on soil ecosystems.Considering the dexterity of ecoenzymatic stoichiometry methods in reflecting changes in soil functions under heavy metal stress,we propose that microbial metabolic limitations quantified by ecoenzymatic stoichiometry models could be promising indicators for enhancing the reality and acceptance of results and further improving the potential for actual utility in environmental decision-making. | Yongxing Cui Xia Wang Xiangxiang Wang Xingchang Zhang Linchuan Fang | 2021 | Soil Ecology Letters2021,3,3: | 3 |
| 2 | miR-23a/b suppress cGAS-mediated innate and autoimmunity显示文摘Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase(cGAS),a key sensor of intracellular DNA,is essential for eliciting innate immunity against infection,whereas aberrant activation of cGAS by endogenous DNA promotes severe autoimmune diseases.However,it is largely unknown how cGAS expression is regulated during pathogen infection and autoimmunity.Here,we report that during herpes simplex virus type 1(HSV-1)infection,two microRNAs(miR-23a and miR-23b)whose levels significantly decrease due to their interaction with the lncRNA Oasl2-209 directly regulate the expression of cGAS.Overexpression of miR-23a/b markedly dampens cytosolic DNA-induced innate immune responses,whereas inhibition of miR-23a/b enhances these responses.Mice treated with miR-23a/b agomirs exhibit increased susceptibility to HSV-1 infection.Moreover,cGAS is significantly upregulated in the Trex1^(−/−)mouse autoimmune disease model.Administration of miR-23a/b blunts self DNA-induced autoinflammatory responses in Trex1^(−/−)mice.Collectively,our study not only reveals a novel regulatory mechanism of cGAS expression by miRNAs but also identifies a potential therapy for cGAS-related autoimmune diseases. | Qiuya Yu Lei Chu Yongxing Li Quanyi Wang Juanjuan Zhu Chen Wang Shufang Cui | 2021 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2021,18,5: | 2 |

| 4 | Heavy metal pollution increases soil microbial carbon limitation:Evidence from ecological enzyme stoichiometry显示文摘Heavy metals can exist in soil for a long time and seriously affect soil quality.The coexistence of various heavy metal pollutants leads to biotoxicity and alters the activity of microorganisms.Soil microbial metabolism plays an important role in nutrient cycling and biochemical processes of soil ecosystem.However,the effects of heavy metal contamination on microbial metabolism in soil are still unclear.This study aims to reveal the responses of microbial metabolic limitation to heavy metals using extracellular enzyme stoichiometry,and further to evaluate the potential impacts of heavy metal pollution on soil nutrient cycle.The results showed that soil microbial metabolism reflected by the ecoenzymatic activities had a significant response to soil heavy metals pollution.The metabolism was limited by soil carbon(C)and phosphorus(P)under varied heavy metal levels,and the increase of heavy metal concentration significantly increased the microbial C limitation,while had no effect on microbial P limitation.Microorganisms may increase the energy investment in metabolism to resist heavy metal stress and thus induce C release.The results suggest that energy metabolism selected by microorganisms in response to long-term heavy metal stress could increase soil C release,which is not conducive to the soil C sequestration.Our study emphasizes that ecoenzymatic stoichiometry could be a promising methodology for evaluating the toxicity of heavy metal pollution and its ecological effects on nutrient cycling. | Mingzhe Xu Yongxing Cui Jingzi Beiyuan Xia Wang Chengjiao Duan Linchuan Fang | 2021 | Soil Ecology Letters2021,3,3: | 1 |
| 5 | Proteomic Analysis of the Small Intestine Reveals Adaptive Strategies for Energy Restriction of Phrynocephalus vlangalii at High Altitude显示文摘The environmental characteristics of hypothermia and hypoxia exert great selective pressure on the energy metabolism of high-altitude animals,especially the ectotherms.Current research on energy-limited adaptation of high-altitude ectotherms has focused on energy expenditures.However,the mechanisms of increasing energy intake in high-altitude ectotherms have been studied rarely.In order to investigate the adaptation mechanism of the small intestine,the key part of energy acquisition for animals,to energy limitation at high altitude in ectotherms,the gut proteins of Phrynocephalus vlangalii from high-and low-altitude populations were compared using label free proteomics.GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis showed that proteins associated with energy intake,such as those involved in oxidation-reduction processes,glutathione metabolism,oxidoreductase activity,cofactor binding,catalytic activity and metabolic pathways,were significantly up-regulated in high-altitude populations;while proteins associated with energy expenditure,such as immune responses and processes,membrane attack complexes,natural killer pathway and other immune-related processes,were significantly down-regulated in expression. | Yangyang ZHAO Cui YANG Yongxing HE Yue QI Shuhui CAO Xue BIAN Wei ZHAO | 2023 | Asian Herpetological Research2023,14,2: | 0 |
| 6 | How the development of barren land into orchards affects soil ecosystem in Tibet,China显示文摘Fruit production is an important strategy for alleviating poverty on the Tibetan Plateau and leads to the conversion of natural barren land into orchards.This study aimed to understand how the conversion of barren land to peach(Prunus persica)orchards affects soil nutrients,heavy metals,and fungal communities in the 0–40 cm profile(at 20 cm intervals)in an experiment including three treatments,barren land(BL),peach orchards planting for 4 years(Y4),and peach orchards planting for 10 years(Y10).Results of the experiment showed that compared with BL,Y4 reduced the availability of some macronutrients(N and K)and micronutrients(Fe and Mn)due to the exclusive application of chemical fertilizer at the seedling stage.Conversely,Y10,which included six years of green cultivation management,using a combination of sheep manure and chemical fertilizer as well as alfalfa(Medicago sativa Linn)intercropping,effectively improved soil macronutrients,but did not enhance the availability of Fe and Mn.Although the investigated heavy metals(As,Hg,Pb,Cr,and Cd)in both the Y4 and Y10 soils were found to pose a low risk to food safety and soil environment,Hg,Cr,and As tended to accumulate in the subsoil(20–40 cm).Furthermore,the variations in the fungal community composition and functional groups were mainly driven by the interaction effects of macronutrients,micronutrients,and heavy metals,but their independent contribution to specific key functional groups cannot be overlooked.For example,Y4 and Y10 decreased the relative abundance of soil saprotrophic and lichenized fungi,mainly due to the loss of micronutrients(Fe and Mn).However,as a result of macronutrient input and dung saprotrophic fungi enrichment,orchard soils promoted the growth of pathogens that play critical roles in fungal co-occurrence networks.These findings indicate that supplementation with N or K fertilizer or manure at the seedling stage and fertilizers rich in Fe and Mn throughout the growth period would be beneficial to the balance of soil nutrients and provide insights into linking the variations in soil nutrients and heavy metals to the function of the fungal community during the conversion of barren land to orchards in alpine soil ecosystems.The risks posed by heavy metal accumulation and fungal pathogen enrichment should be actively prevented. | Shuailin LI Shuo WANG Xiuli ZENG Yongxing CUI Wantai YU Qiang MA | 2022 | Pedosphere2022,32,4: | 0 |
| 7 | Soil microbial respiration is regulated by stoichiometric imbalances: Evidence from a humidity gradient case显示文摘Humidity not only affects soil microbial respiration(SMR) directly, but, indirectly by regulating the availability of soil water and nutrients. However,the patterns of direct and indirect effects of humidity on SMR over large precipitation gradients remain unclear, limiting our understanding of the effects of precipitation changes on soil C cycle. Here, we investigated the relationships among humidity, soil nutrients, and SMR by identifying stoichiometric imbalances, microbial elemental homeostasis, and microbial C use efficiency along a precipitation gradient at a continental scale. The relationship between SMR and humidity index(HI) corresponded to a Richard’s curve with an inflection point threshold value of approximately 0.7. Soil microbial respiration increased with increasing humidity in drier areas(HI < 0.7), but tended to balance above this threshold. Increasing humidity exacerbated C:P and N:P imbalances across the selected gradient. Severe N and P limitations in soil microbial communities were observed in drier areas, while soil microbes suffered from aggravated P limitation as the humidity increased in wetter areas(HI > 0.7). Soil microbial communities regulated their enzyme production to maintain a strong stoichiometric homeostasis in drier areas;enzyme production, microbial biomass, and threshold elemental ratios were non-homeostatic under P limitation in wetter areas, which further contributed to the increase in SMR. Our results identified a moisture constraint on SMR in drier areas and highlighted the importance of nutrient(especially for P) limitations induced by humidity in regulating SMR in wetter areas. Understanding the modulation of SMR via soil enzyme activity may improve the prediction of soil C budget under future global climate change. | Jiwei LI Jiangbo XIE Jianzhao WU Yongxing CUI Lingbo DONG Yulin LIU Xuying HAI Yan LI Zhouping SHANGGUAN Kaibo WANG Changhui PENG Lei DENG | 2023 | Pedosphere2023,33,6: | 0 |
