Direct Multi-Deuterium Labelling of Pirtobrutinib.

Herein, we demonstrate an efficient method for multi-deuterium labelling of pirtobrutinib-a Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor recently approved by the FDA-using a straightforward hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) reaction. A remarkably high level of deuterium incorporation was achieved using an excess of a Kerr-type iridium catalyst. The key factor in the significant deuterium labelling was the decision to employ a deuterium uniformly labelled solvent, chlorobenzene-d5, at an elevated temperature. Virtually, no d0-d3 species were detected, with only traces of d4-d5 isotopomers (< 5%) observable in the mass spectrum of pirtobrutinib-d8, fulfilling requirements for stable isotope-labelled internal standard. The labelled compound-mainly consisting of isotopomers d6-d9 at 82.4% of the total abundance-was isolated in a high yield (73%) and purity (99%). Noteworthy, fluorine group acting as a directing group was observed for the first time. Significant incorporation of deuterium in ortho-positions, exceeding 87%, was observed. Interestingly, chlorinated solvent used in the HIE reactions was non-specifically deuterated yielding up to 0.42 deuterium per chlorobenzene molecule even at an exceptionally low iridium catalyst loading of 4.17 × 10-2 mol%.

A systematic study on the effect of protonation and deuteration on electron spin Tm/T2 in a cellular context.

In recent years, DEER experiments in pulsed EPR have garnered interest for their precise distance distribution insights in cellular and buffer setups. These measurements linked to electron spin Tm/T2 values of the labelled sample are impacted by the cellular environment being fully protonated or deuterated, as demonstrated in the present study.

Enhancing hydrological insight: isotopic methods revealing groundwater-surface water interactions in the Lower Quang Tri River Group, Vietnam.

The Lower Quang Tri River Group, situated in central Vietnam, faces a myriad of challenges, notably the decline in groundwater levels and the salinisation of both groundwater and surface water, significantly impacting water availability for domestic, agricultural, and industrial purposes. To address these pressing concerns, this study adopts a comprehensive methodology integrating hydrogeological measurements, isotopic techniques, and chemical analyses of various water sources, including local precipitation, surface water bodies, reservoirs, and groundwater samples. Utilising the deuterium and oxygen-18 signatures (δ2H and δ18O) in water molecules as environmental tracers for the assessment of base flow and water sources enables a nuanced understanding of the intricate interaction between surface water and groundwater. Research findings elucidate that during the dry season, groundwater recharge primarily stems from water in the reservoirs over approximately seven months. Base flow contributes between 80 and 85 % of streamflow during the rainy season, escalating to 100 % during the dry season. The mean travelling time of the base flow is estimated at 120 ± 10 days using the sine curve model developed by Rodgers et al. The insights gleaned from this study are poised to play a pivotal role in guiding the local water resources managers in licensing for the exploitation of a right quantities of groundwater as sustainable management strategies in the region.

Deuterium Metabolic Imaging of Alzheimer Disease at 3-T Magnetic Field Strength: A Pilot Case-Control Study.

Background Impaired glucose metabolism is characteristic of several types of dementia, preceding cognitive symptoms and structural brain changes. Reduced glucose uptake in specific brain regions, detected using fluorine 18 (18F) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET, is a valuable diagnostic marker in Alzheimer disease (AD). However, the use of 18F-FDG PET in clinical practice may be limited by equipment availability and high cost. Purpose To test the feasibility of using MRI-based deuterium (2H) metabolic imaging (DMI) at a clinical magnetic field strength (3 T) to detect and localize changes in the concentration of glucose and its metabolites in the brains of patients with a clinical diagnosis of AD. Materials and Methods Participants were recruited for this prospective case-control pilot study between March 2021 and February 2023. DMI was performed at 3 T using a custom birdcage head coil following oral administration of deuterium-labeled glucose (0.75 g/kg). Unlocalized whole-brain MR spectroscopy (MRS) and three-dimensional MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) (voxel size, 3.2 cm cubic) were performed. Ratios of 2H-glucose, 2H-glutamate and 2H-glutamine (2H-Glx), and 2H-lactate spectroscopic peak signals to 2H-water peak signal were calculated for the whole-brain MR spectra and for individual MRSI voxels. Results A total of 19 participants, including 10 participants with AD (mean age, 68 years ± 5 [SD]; eight males) and nine cognitively healthy control participants (mean age, 70 years ± 6; six males) were evaluated. Whole-brain spectra demonstrated a reduced ratio of 2H-Glx to 2H-glucose peak signals in participants with AD compared with control participants (0.41 ± 0.09 vs 0.58 ± 0.20, respectively; P = .04), suggesting an impairment of oxidative glucose metabolism in AD. However, there was no evidence of localization of these changes to the expected regions of metabolic impairment at MRSI, presumably due to insufficient spatial resolution. Conclusion DMI at 3 T demonstrated impairment of oxidative glucose metabolism in the brains of patients with AD but no evidence of regional signal differences. © RSNA, 2024 Supplemental material is available for this article.

Deuterium Editing of Small Molecules: A Case Study on Antitumor Activity of 1,4-Benzodiazepine-2,5-dione Derivatives.

Substituting hydrogen with deuterium in drug molecules is an appealing bioisosteric strategy for the generation of novel chemical entities in drug development. Optimizing lead compounds through deuteration has proven to be challenging and unpredictable, particularly for compounds with multiple metabolic sites. This study presents the pioneering achievement of substituting up to 19 hydrogen atoms with deuterium on 1,4-benzodiazepine-2,5-dione derivatives, shedding light on the structure-metabolism relationship and the impact of multiple deuterations on drug-like properties. Notably, the deuterated compound 3f exhibited remarkable antitumor activity in vivo and demonstrated favorable drug-like properties as a drug candidate.

Biochemical and biophysical drivers of the hydrogen isotopic composition of carbohydrates and acetogenic lipids.

The hydrogen isotopic composition (δ2H) of plant compounds is increasingly used as a hydroclimatic proxy; however, the interpretation of δ2H values is hampered by potential coeffecting biochemical and biophysical processes. Here, we studied δ2H values of water and carbohydrates in leaves and roots, and of leaf n-alkanes, in two distinct tobacco (Nicotiana sylvestris) experiments. Large differences in plant performance and biochemistry resulted from (a) soil fertilization with varying nitrogen (N) species ratios and (b) knockout-induced starch deficiency. We observed a strong 2H-enrichment in sugars and starch with a decreasing performance induced by increasing NO3-/NH4+ ratios and starch deficiency, as well as from leaves to roots. However, δ2H values of cellulose and n-alkanes were less affected. We show that relative concentrations of sugars and starch, interlinked with leaf gas exchange, shape δ2H values of carbohydrates. We thus provide insights into drivers of hydrogen isotopic composition of plant compounds and into the mechanistic modeling of plant cellulose δ2H values.

Separation of isotopologues of amphetamine with various degree of deuteration on achiral and polysaccharide-based chiral columns in high-performance liquid chromatography.

Hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) isotope effects are not unusual in chromatography and such phenomena have been observed in both gas- and liquid-phase separations. Despite the numerous reports on this topic, the understanding of mechanisms and the underlying noncovalent interactions at play remains rather challenging. In our recent study, we reported baseline separation of isotopologoues of some amphetamine (AMP) derivatives on achiral and polysaccharide-based chiral columns, as well as some correlations between the degree of separation of enantiomers and isotopologues on (the same) polysaccharide-based chiral column(s). Following our previous findings on isotope effects in high-performance liquid chromatography, we report herein a comparative study on the isotope effects observed with AMP and methamphetamine (MET). The impact of some pivotal factors such as the number of deuterium atoms part of AMP isotopologues, the structure of its isotopomers, the chemical structure of the achiral and chiral stationary phases used in this study, and the use of methanol- vs acetonitrile-containing mobile phases on the isotope effects was examined and discussed. Quantitative correlations between the observed isotope effects and the enantioselectivity of the chiral columns used are also shortly discussed. Furthermore, considering the chromatographic results as benchmark experimental data, we attempted to elucidate the molecular bases of the observed phenomena using quantum mechanics calculations.

Effect of Long-Term Reduction of Deuterium Content in the Body on Hemoglobin Production and Parameters of Erythropoiesis.

Anemia is the most widespread hematological disease, therefore the search for new approaches to erythropoiesis regulation in the body remains an extremely urgent problem. We studied the effect of long-term reduction of deuterium level in the internal milieu of the body on hemoglobin production and parameters of erythropoiesis in sexually mature male Wistar rats. The animals consumed water with deuterium content decreased to 10 ppm for 2 months. After 1 month, an increase of hemoglobin synthesis in erythrocytes was detected, and after 2 months we observed intensification of erythropoiesis. Since the observed processes occurred in healthy animals with initially normal indices of hematopoiesis, the obtained data allow us to consider the reduction of deuterium level in the internal milieu of the body as a factor of erythropoiesis regulation and a possible option of its alternative non-pharmacological regulators.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Fluorine-18 and Deuterium Labeled l-Fluoroalanines as Positron Emission Tomography Imaging Agents for Cancer Detection.

To fully explore the potential of 18F-labeled l-fluoroalanine for imaging cancer and other chronic diseases, a simple and mild radiosynthesis method has been established to produce optically pure l-3-[18F]fluoroalanine (l-[18F]FAla), using a serine-derivatized, five-membered-ring sulfamidate as the radiofluorination precursor. A deuterated analogue, l-3-[18F]fluoroalanine-d3 (l-[18F]FAla-d3), was also prepared to improve metabolic stability. Both l-[18F]FAla and l-[18F]FAla-d3 were rapidly taken up by 9L/lacZ, MIA PaCa-2, and U87MG cells and were shown to be substrates for the alanine-serine-cysteine (ASC) amino acid transporter. The ability of l-[18F]FAla, l-[18F]FAla-d3, and the d-enantiomer, d-[18F]FAla-d3, to image tumors was evaluated in U87MG tumor-bearing mice. Despite the significant bone uptake was observed for both l-[18F]FAla and l-[18F]FAla-d3, the latter had enhanced tumor uptake compared to l-[18F]FAla, and d-[18F]FAla-d3 was not specifically taken up by the tumors. The enhanced tumor uptake of l-[18F]FAla-d3 compared with its nondeuterated counterpart, l-[18F]FAla, warranted the further biological investigation of this radiotracer as a potential cancer imaging agent.

Kinetic isotope effect reveals rate-limiting step in green-to-red photoconvertible fluorescent proteins.

Photoconvertible fluorescent proteins (pcFPs) undergo a slow photochemical transformation when irradiated with blue light. Since their emission is shifted from green to red, pcFPs serve as convenient fusion tags in several cutting-edge biological imaging technologies. Here, a pcFP termed the Least Evolved Ancestor (LEA) was used as a model system to determine the rate-limiting step of photoconversion. Perdeuterated histidine residues were introduced by isotopic enrichment and chromophore content was monitored by absorbance. pH-dependent photoconversion experiments were carried out by exposure to 405-nm light followed by dark equilibration. The loss of green chromophore correlated well with the rise of red, and maximum photoconversion rates were observed at pH 6.5 (0.059 ± 0.001 min-1 for red color acquisition). The loss of green and the rise of red provided deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs) that were identical within error, 2.9 ± 0.9 and 3.8 ± 0.6, respectively. These data indicate that there is one rate-determining step in the light reactions of photoconversion, and that CH bond cleavage occurs in the transition state of this step. We propose that these reactions are rate-limited on the min time scale by the abstraction of a proton at the His62 beta-carbon. A conformational intermediate such as a twisted or isomerized chromophore is proposed to slowly equilibrate in the dark to generate the red form. Additionally, His62 may shuttle protons to activate Glu211 to serve as a general base, while also facilitating beta-elimination. This idea is supported by a recent X-ray structure of methylated His62.

Isolation and Identification of a Urinary Biomarker for Lung Cancer: 27-Nor-5ß-Cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24R,25S Pentol Glucuronide and Its Deuterated Analog.

An untargeted metabolomic study identified four potential lung cancer diagnostic biomarkers in human urine. One of the potential biomarkers was an unidentified feature possessing a m/z value of 561+. "561+" was isolated from human urine and tentatively identified as 27-nor-5ß-cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24,25 pentol glucuronide with unknown C24,25 stereochemistry using 1H NMR and mass spectrometry. In a prior report, the C24,25 stereochemistry of the aglycone, 27-nor-5ß-cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24,25 pentol, was found to be 24S,25R through GC analysis of the acetonide-TMS derivative. An authentic sample was prepared and found not to have the same stereochemistry as "561+". To identify the C24,25 stereochemistry, four C24,C25 diastereoisomeric alcohols of 27-nor-5ß-cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24,25 pentol were prepared from chiral amino acids. Using an LCMS method, the C24,C25 stereochemistry of the "561+" aglycone was determined to be 24R,25S. With the correct aglycone in hand, it was coupled with glucuronic acid to complete the first reported synthesis of 27-nor-5ß-cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24R,25S pentol glucuronide. Deuterium labeled 27-nor-5ß-cholestane-3α,7α,12α,24R,25S pentol was also synthesized for use as an internal standard for MS quantitation.

Hydrogen isotope fractionation is controlled by CO2 in coccolithophore lipids.

Hydrogen isotope ratios (δ2H) represent an important natural tracer of metabolic processes, but quantitative models of processes controlling H-fractionation in aquatic photosynthetic organisms are lacking. Here, we elucidate the underlying physiological controls of 2H/1H fractionation in algal lipids by systematically manipulating temperature, light, and CO2(aq) in continuous cultures of the haptophyte Gephyrocapsa oceanica. We analyze the hydrogen isotope fractionation in alkenones (αalkenone), a class of acyl lipids specific to this species and other haptophyte algae. We find a strong decrease in the αalkenone with increasing CO2(aq) and confirm αalkenone correlates with temperature and light. Based on the known biosynthesis pathways, we develop a cellular model of the δ2H of algal acyl lipids to evaluate processes contributing to these controls on fractionation. Simulations show that longer residence times of NADPH in the chloroplast favor a greater exchange of NADPH with 2H-richer intracellular water, increasing αalkenone. Higher chloroplast CO2(aq) and temperature shorten NADPH residence time by enhancing the carbon fixation and lipid synthesis rates. The inverse correlation of αalkenone to CO2(aq) in our cultures suggests that carbon concentrating mechanisms (CCM) do not achieve a constant saturation of CO2 at the Rubisco site, but rather that chloroplast CO2 varies with external CO2(aq). The pervasive inverse correlation of αalkenone with CO2(aq) in the modern and preindustrial ocean also suggests that natural populations may not attain a constant saturation of Rubisco with the CCM. Rather than reconstructing growth water, αalkenone may be a powerful tool to elucidate the carbon limitation of photosynthesis.

Precipitation in the plum rain period accounts for 40%-50% of annual precipitation in the monsoon region. To clarify the temporal variability of the isotopic composition of precipitation during the plum rain period from event to interannual time scale and identify the influencing factors, we analyzed the isotopic composition of precipitation and its influencing factors in Nanjing from 2015 to 2022. By using the Hybrid Single-particle Lagran-gian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model with specific humidity analysis, we investigated the water vapor source and influencing factors. The results showed that 1) the isotopic abundance of atmospheric precipitation was depleted in the summer and enriched in winter. dx was lower in summer and higher in winter. The isotopic abundance of precipitation from the plum rain was depleted compared to mean value of the whole-year. 2) There was no significant correlation between δ2H and δ18O of the plum rain (precipitation) with local meteorological factors. However, dx was lower in light rain, reflecting the effect of sub-cloud evaporation. The average dx was higher during plum rain period in years with more total plum rain precipitation. 3) The low-latitude South China Sea and the western Pacific Ocean source area provided water vapor for the plum rain. The shift of moisture source region led to abrupt changes in precipitation isotopes. Our results could provide data support for studies on precipitation isotopes in the monsoon region, as well as a reference point for further understanding the precipitation mechanism of the plum rain and stu-dying the seasonal variability of atmospheric circulation in the East Asian monsoon region.

Advances and prospects in deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI): a systematic review of in vivo studies.

BACKGROUND: Deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) has emerged as a promising non-invasive technique for studying metabolism in vivo. This review aims to summarize the current developments and discuss the futures in DMI technique in vivo. METHODS: A systematic literature review was conducted based on the PRISMA 2020 statement by two authors. Specific technical details and potential applications of DMI in vivo were summarized, including strategies of deuterated metabolites detection, deuterium-labeled tracers and corresponding metabolic pathways in vivo, potential clinical applications, routes of tracer administration, quantitative evaluations of metabolisms, and spatial resolution. RESULTS: Of the 2,248 articles initially retrieved, 34 were finally included, highlighting 2 strategies for detecting deuterated metabolites: direct and indirect DMI. Various deuterated tracers (e.g., [6,6'-2H2]glucose, [2,2,2'-2H3]acetate) were utilized in DMI to detect and quantify different metabolic pathways such as glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and fatty acid oxidation. The quantifications (e.g., lactate level, lactate/glutamine and glutamate ratio) hold promise for diagnosing malignancies and assessing early anti-tumor treatment responses. Tracers can be administered orally, intravenously, or intraperitoneally, either through bolus administration or continuous infusion. For metabolic quantification, both serial time point methods (including kinetic analysis and calculation of area under the curves) and single time point quantifications are viable. However, insufficient spatial resolution remains a major challenge in DMI (e.g., 3.3-mL spatial resolution with 10-min acquisition at 3 T). CONCLUSIONS: Enhancing spatial resolution can facilitate the clinical translation of DMI. Furthermore, optimizing tracer synthesis, administration protocols, and quantification methodologies will further enhance their clinical applicability. RELEVANCE STATEMENT: Deuterium metabolic imaging, a promising non-invasive technique, is systematically discussed in this review for its current progression, limitations, and future directions in studying in vivo energetic metabolism, displaying a relevant clinical potential. KEY POINTS: • Deuterium metabolic imaging (DMI) shows promise for studying in vivo energetic metabolism. • This review explores DMI's current state, limits, and future research directions comprehensively. • The clinical translation of DMI is mainly impeded by limitations in spatial resolution.

Structure-Activity Relationships, Deuteration, and Fluorination of Synthetic Cannabinoid Receptor Agonists Related to AKB48, 5F-AKB-48, and AFUBIATA.

Synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs) are a growing class of new psychoactive substances (NPS) commonly derived from an N-alkylated indole, indazole, or 7-azaindole scaffold. Diversification of this core (at the 3-position) with amide-linked pendant amino acid groups and modular N-alkylation (of the indole/indazole/7-azaindole core) ensures that novel SCRAs continue to enter the illicit drug market rapidly. In response to the large number of SCRAs that have been detected, pharmacological evaluation of this NPS class has become increasingly common. Adamantane-derived SCRAs have consistently appeared throughout the market since 2011, and as such, a systematic set of these derivatives was synthesized and pharmacologically evaluated. Deuterated and fluorinated adamantane derivatives were prepared to evaluate typical hydrogen bioisosteres, as well as evaluation of the newly detected AFUBIATA.

Deuterated Alkyl Sulfonium Salt Reagents; Importance of H/D Exchange Methods in Drug Discovery.

Deuterated drugs (heavy drugs) have recently been spotlighted as a new modality for small-molecule drugs because the pharmacokinetics of pharmaceutical drugs can be enhanced by replacing C-H bonds with more stable C-D bonds at metabolic positions. Therefore, deuteration methods for drug candidates are a hot topic in medicinal chemistry. Among them, the H/D exchange reaction (direct transformation of C-H bonds to C-D bonds) is a useful and straightforward method for creating novel deuterated target molecules, and over 20 reviews on the synthetic methods related to H/D exchange reactions have been published in recent years. Although various deuterated drug candidates undergo clinical trials, approved deuterated drugs possess CD3 groups in the same molecule. However, less diversification, except for the CD3 group, is a problem for future medicinal chemistry. Recently, we developed various deuterated alkyl (dn-alkyl) sulfonium salts based on the H/D exchange reaction of the corresponding hydrogen form using D2O as an inexpensive deuterium source to introduce CD3, CH3CD2, and ArCH2CD2 groups into drug candidates. This concept summarises recent reviews related to H/D exchange reactions and novel reagents that introduce the CD3 group, and our newly developed electrophilic dn-alkyl reagents are discussed.

Investigation of the structure of protein-polymer conjugates in solution reveals the impact of protein deuteration and the size of the polymer on its thermal stability.

The conjugation of proteins with polymers offers immense biotechnological potential by creating novel macromolecules. This article presents experimental findings on the structural properties of maltose-binding protein (MBP) conjugated with linear biodegradable polyphosphoester polymers with different molecular weights. We studied isotopic effects on both proteins and polymers. Circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy and small-angle neutron scattering reveal that the conjugation process destabilizes the protein, affecting the secondary more than the tertiary structure, even at room temperature, and that the presence of two domains in the MBP may contribute to its observed instability. Notably, unfolding temperatures differ between native MBP and the conjugates. In particular, this study sheds light on the complex interplay of factors such as the deuteration influencing protein stability and conformational changes in the conjugation processes. The perdeuteration influences the hydrogen bond network and hydrophobic interactions in the case of the MBP protein. The perdeuteration of the protein influences the hydrogen bond network and hydrophobic interactions. This is evident in the decreased thermal stability of deuterated MBP protein, in the conjugate, especially with high-molecular-mass polymers.

Acid mine drainage from coal mines in the eastern Himalayan sub-region: Hydrogeochemical processes, seasonal variations and insights from hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes.

Uncontrolled coal mining using non-scientific methods has presented a major threat to the quality of environment, particularly the water resources in eastern himalayan sub-region of India. Water bodies in the vicinity of mining areas are contaminated by acid mine drainage (AMD) that is released into streams and rivers. This study attempted to assess the impact of AMD, deciphering hydrogeochemical processes, seasonal fluctuations, and stable isotope features of water bodies flowing through and around coal mining areas. Self-organizing maps (SOMs) used to separate and categorize AMD, AMD-impacted and non-AMD impacted water from the different study locations for two sampling seasons revealed four clusters (C), with C1 and C2 impacted by AMD, C3 and C4 showing negligible to no impact of AMD. AMD impacted water was SO42- - Mg2+- Ca2+ hydrochemical type with sulphide oxidation and evaporation dominating water chemistry, followed by silicate weathering during both the sampling seasons. Water with negligible-to-no AMD-impact was Mg2+- Ca2+- SO42- to Ca2+ - HCO3- to mixed hydrochemical type with rock weathering and dissolution, followed by ion exchange as major factors controlling water chemistry during both the sampling seasons. Most of physicochemical parameters of C1 and C2 exceeded the prescribed limits, whereas in C3 and C4 water samples, parameters were found within the prescribed limits. Stable isotopes of hydrogen (δ2H) and oxygen (δ18O) during post-monsoon (PoM) varied between -41.04 ‰ and -29.98 ‰, and -6.60 ‰ to -3.94 ‰; and during pre-monsoon (PrM) varied between -58.18 ‰ and - 33.76 ‰ and -8.60 ‰ to -5.46 ‰. Deuterium excess (d-excess) ranged between 1.57 ‰ and 12.47 ‰ during PoM and 5.70 ‰ to 15.17 ‰ during PrM season. The stable isotopes analysis revealed that evaporation, mineral dissolution and mixing with rainwater are the key factors in study area.

Isotope labeled 3D-Raman confocal imaging and atomic force microscopy study on epithelial cells interacting with the fungus Candida albicans.

The human pathogenic fungus Candida albicans damages epithelial cells during superficial infections. Here we use three-dimensional-sequential-confocal Raman spectroscopic imaging and atomic force microscopy to investigate the interaction of C. albicans wild type cells, the secreted C. albicans peptide toxin candidalysin and mutant cells lacking candidalysin with epithelial cells. The candidalysin is responsible for epithelial cell damage and exhibits in its deuterated form an identifiable Raman signal in a frequency region distinct from the cellular frequency region. Vibration modes at 2100-2200 cm-1 attributed to carbon­deuterium bending and at 477 cm-1, attributed to the nitrogen­deuterium out-of-plane bending, found around the nucleus, can be assigned to deuterated candidalysin. Atomic force microscopy visualized 100 nm deep lesions on the cell and force-distance curves indicate the higher adhesion on pore surrounding after incubation with candidalysin. Candidalysin targets the plasma membrane, but is also found inside of the cytosol of epithelial cells during C. albicans infection.

Limestone water mixing process and hydrogen and oxygen stable isotope fractionation response under mining action.

North China type coalfield are gradually mining deep, and the mixing of groundwater is intensified. Hydrogen and oxygen isotopes are important elements for tracing groundwater movement. The fractionation response mechanism under mining conditions is not clear. In this paper, combined with numerical simulation, MixSIAR isotope mixing model and other methods, according to the δD, δ18O and hydrochemical information of various water bodies, the impact of coal mining on hydrogen and oxygen isotope fractionation is analyzed from multiple perspectives. The results show that summer soil water is the main source of recharge for limestone water, accounting for 30.7%-41.5%, and the Zhan River is the main source of recharge for limestone water. Before groundwater recharge, evaporation leads to the increase of δ18O in surface water by 0.31‰-5.58‰, water loss by 1.81%-28.00%, the increase of δ18O in soil water by 0.47‰-6.33‰, and water loss by 2.74%-35.80%. Compared with the coal mining layer, the degree of hydrogen and oxygen isotope drift and water-rock interaction in the coal mine stopping layer are significantly improved. The results of numerical simulation show that the pumping activity reduces the 18O concentration in the mining layer. The ion ratio is used as a new variable to eliminate the influence of water-rock interaction when calculating the mixing ratio. The results show that the limestone water is in a state of receiving external recharge, and mixing effect increases the δ18O in limestone water by 0.86‰ on average, and the δD increases by 0.72‰ on average. The research results explain the controlled process of hydrogen and oxygen isotope fractionation under mining conditions, which is of great significance to coal mine safety production.
