RESUMEN
In the past few decades, especially since the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), the effects of atmospheric bioaerosols on human health, the environment, and climate have received great attention. To evaluate the impacts of bioaerosols quantitatively, it is crucial to determine the types of bioaerosols in the atmosphere and their spatial-temporal distribution. We provide a concise summary of the online and offline observation strategies employed by the global research community to sample and analyze atmospheric bioaerosols. In addition, the quantitative distribution of bioaerosols is described by considering the atmospheric bioaerosols concentrations at various time scales (daily and seasonal changes, for example), under various weather, and different underlying surfaces. Finally, a comprehensive summary of the reasons for the spatiotemporal distribution of bioaerosols is discussed, including differences in emission sources, the impact process of meteorological factors and environmental factors. This review of information on the latest research progress contributes to the emergence of further observation strategies that determine the quantitative dynamics of public health and ecological effects of bioaerosols.

BACKGROUND: Txnrd3 as selenoprotein plays key roles in antioxidant process and sperm maturation. Inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, are becoming significantly increasing disease worldwide in recent years which are proved relative to diet, especially selenium intake. METHODS: In the present study, 8-week-old C57BL/6N male Txnrd3-/-, Txnrd3-/ + , Txnrd3 + / + mice, weight 25-30 g, were randomly chosen and each group with 30 mice. Feed 3.5% DSS drinking water and normal water continuously for 7 days. Mouse colon cancer cells (CT26) were cultured in vitro to establish Txnrd3 overexpressed/knocked-down model by cell transfection technology. Morphology and ultrastructure, calcium levels, ROS level, cell death were observed and detected in vivo and vitro. RESULTS: In Txnrd3-/-mice, ulcerative colitis was more severe, the morphological and ultrastructural lesions were also more prominent compared with wild-type mice, accompanied by the significantly increased expression of NLRP3, Caspase1, RIPK3, and MLKL. Overexpression of Txnrd3 could lead to increased oxidative stress through intracellular calcium outflow-induced oxidative stress increase followed by necrosis and pyroptosis pathway activation and further inhibit the growth and proliferation of colon cancer cells. CONCLUSION: Txnrd3 overexpression leads to intracellular calcium outflow and increased ROS, which eventually leads to necrosis and focal death of colon cancer cells, while causing Txnrd3-/- mice depth of the crypt deeper, weakened intestinal secretion and immune function and aggravate the occurrence of ulcerative colitis. The present study lays a foundation for the prevention and treatment of ulcerative colitis and colon carcinoma in clinic treatment.

It is essential to know the environmental parameters within which the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can survive to understand its global dispersal pattern. We found that 60.0% of the confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) occurred in places where the air temperature ranged from 5 °C to 15 °C, with a peak in cases at 11.54 °C. Moreover, approximately 73.8% of the confirmed cases were concentrated in regions with absolute humidity of 3 g/m3 to 10 g/m3. SARS-CoV-2 appears to be spreading toward higher latitudes. Our findings suggest that there is an optimal climatic zone in which the concentration of SARS-CoV-2 markedly increases in the ambient environment (including the surfaces of objects). These results strongly imply that the COVID-19 pandemic may spread cyclically and outbreaks may recur in large cities in the mid-latitudes in autumn 2020.
