RESUMEN

3,3',4,4',5-Pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB126) is the most toxic congener of dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DL PCBs), while nanoplastics (NPs) have recently emerged as significant marine pollutants, both posing threats to aquatic organisms and human health. They coexist in the environment, but their comprehensive toxicological effects remain unclear. In this study, zebrafish embryos were simultaneously exposed to PCB126 and 80-nanometer nanoplastyrene (NPS). Researchers utilized fluorescence microscopy, qPCR, histopathological examination, and transcriptomic sequencing to investigate the developmental toxicity of different concentrations of PCB126 and NPS individually or in combination on zebrafish embryos and larvae. Results indicate that the chorion significantly impedes the accumulation of NPS (p < 0.05). It is noteworthy that this barrier effect diminishes upon simultaneous exposure to PCB126. In this experiment, the semi-lethal concentration of PCB126 for larvae was determined to be 6.33 µg/L. Exposure to PCB126 induces various deformities, primarily mediated through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Similarly, exposure to NPS also activates AHR, leading to developmental impairments. Furthermore, transcriptomic sequencing revealed similar effects of PCB126 and NPS on the gene expression trends in zebrafish larvae, but combined exposure to both exacerbates the risk of cancer and induces more severe cardiac toxicity. At this level, co-exposure to PCB126 and NPS adversely affects the development of zebrafish larvae. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the in vivo accumulation of DL polychlorinated biphenyls and microplastics in actual aquatic environments and their impact on fish development.

RESUMEN

A palladium-catalyzed direct C-H arylation of indolines at C-7 position has been achieved at near-ambient temperature. The reaction was carried out with aryltriazene as a stable aryl source and electron shuttle to sustainably release aryl radical in situ under the action of promoter, and pyrimidine as a detachable directing group for the synthesis of 7-arylindolines under oxidant- and ligand-free conditions. Notably, this catalytic system can also be applied to the direct and site-selective arylation of tetrahydroquinolines (C-8) and carbazoles (C-1).

RESUMEN

The bottom mud of mangroves contains numerous microbial groups that play an important role in the main ecological functions of the mangrove ecosystem. The diversity and functional and environmental factors related to microbial communities, in terms of the assembly process and in environmental adaptation of the abundance and rare bacterial communities in the mangrove ecosystem, have not been fully explored. We used 16S high-throughput sequencing and operational taxonomic unit analysis to compare the diversity and composition of bacterial communities in different tidal zones in the sediments of the Zhanjiang Gaoqiao Mangrove Nature Reserve, compare the ecological adaptation thresholds and phylogenetic signals of bacterial communities under different environmental gradients, and examine the factors affecting the composition of the bacterial community. The diversity of microbial species and structure and function of the mangrove sediments were affected by the environment, showing the trend: mid tide zone > climax zone > low tide zone. Organic matter content, oxygen content, pH, and total phosphorus were identified as important environmental factors determining the functional diversity of bacterial communities and survival, while pH influences species evolution. The abundant taxa showed a wider response threshold and stronger phylogenetic signals of ecological preference across environmental gradients compared to rare taxa. The abundant bacterial groups have broader environmental adaptability than rare bacterial groups, and different environmental factors affect different communities and functions in the mangrove ecological environment. These results elucidate the mechanism underlying the generation and maintenance of bacterial diversity in response to global environmental changes.

RESUMEN

Microplastics are easily consumed by marine animals, thereby entering the food chain and endangering animal health. However, there are few studies focusing on the effects of microplastics in mangrove sediments on microbial communities. In order to study the influence of microplastics on microorganisms, microplastics and microorganisms were extracted from Zhanjiang (Guangdong Province, China) mangrove sediments and analyzed. The results showed that there were differences in Shannon and Simpson indices of the microbial community in microplastics (p < 0.05), and there were also differences between JG30_KF_CM45 and Natranaerovirga at the genus level, indicating that microplastics may affect the diversity and composition of microorganisms in sediments. In addition, FAPROTAX function prediction analysis showed that microplastics may affect the nitrification of microbial communities. The results from this study indicate that microplastics affected the diversity and richness of microorganisms in mangrove sediments, which provides an experimental basis for the relationship between microplastics and microorganisms.

RESUMEN

An efficient palladium-catalyzed region-selective C7-trifluoromethylation of indolines using commercially available Umemoto's reagent was reported. The reaction utilizing Umemoto's reagent as CF3 radical precursor, pyrimidine as a removable directing group, Pd(II) as a catalyst, and Cu(II) as an oxidant furnished the required products with excellent regioselectivities and good yields. The present strategy has good region-selectivity, broad substrate scope, and scale-up application. Additionally, the present method was underlined by the direct C-1 trifluoromethylation of carbazoles. Furthermore, C7 trifluoromethylated indole can also be easily obtained via Pd-catalyzed direct C-7 trifluoromethylation/oxidation/deprotection sequential reactions.

RESUMEN

Bioremediation of sediment organic pollution has been intensely investigated, but the degradation of complex organic compounds, pesticide residues, and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) remains poorly studied. In this study, sediments were collected from Zhanjiang Mangrove Reserve and inoculated in an inorganic salt medium using only biphenyl (BP) and PCBs as the carbon sources to obtain a PCB-degrading strain. A gram-negative bacterium that metabolized PCBs was isolated and identified as Klebsiella Lw3 by 16S rDNA phylogenetic analysis. Genomic sequencing showed that this bacterium possessed genes related to BP/PCB degradation, and its GC content was 58.2%; we identified 3326 cellular pathways. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was employed to test the PCB degrading ability; the results showed that the strain had a good degradation effect on PCB3 at concentrations of 5, 10, 20, 40, and 60 mg/L and that the final degradation rate was higher than 97% after 96 h. Interestingly, this strain showed good biodegradability of PCBs despite having no classical PCB degradation pathway, providing a new direction for Klebsiella research with practical significance for in situ bioremediation of PCB contamination. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the genetic structure of PCB-degrading strains as well as eco-friendly and low-cost PCB degradation and lays a foundation for the discovery of new degradation pathways.

RESUMEN

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are widely distributed environmental toxicants, whose biological toxicity is magnified step by step through the transmission of the food chain. However, there is little research about the effect of PCBs on intestinal epithelial barrier function. In this experiment, the effects of PCB exposure on the intestines of zebrafish were evaluated. Animals were exposed to Aroclor 1254 (5 µg/L, 10 µg/L, 15 µg/L). After 21 days, the changes in histology, enzyme biomarkers, intestinal microorganisms, and metabolomics were detected. The inflammation and oxidative stress in the intestines of zebrafish were observed. Additionally, there were significant changes in intestinal microbiota and tissue metabolism, most of which were associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid metabolism. The results showed that PCBs exposure resulted in intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress in zebrafish.Moreover, intestinal metabolites and intestinal microflora of zebrafish were also disturbed. This study verified that exposure can lead to intestinal damage and changes in intestinal metabolic capacity and microorganisms, enlightening the consequences of PCB exposure.
