生物炭对向日葵秸秆热解特性及气体产物影响

为了研究生物炭对向日葵秸秆热解的影响,以向日葵秸秆为原料,基于TG-FTIR研究生物炭添加前后向日葵秸秆热解特性与气体产物的变化。结果表明,与向日葵秸秆相比,混合样品主热解区间由276~349℃变得更长,并且发生不同程度的偏移,热解活化能不同程度降低,由60.21降到38.07~50.35 kJ/mol,呋喃类、酸类、含羰基类化合物、芳香醛类、CO、CH4等产物吸光度值存在差异。随着添加500℃制备生物炭比例增加,混合样品热解的活化能减小,释放气体产物中芳香醛类释放量增量减少,CO与CH4释放量降低。添加不同制备温度的生物炭,混合样品热解产生呋喃类、酸类、含羰基类化合物释放量均有所降低;添加500和700℃制备的生物炭,混合样品热解气体产物中芳香醛类增加。添加900℃制备的生物炭,向日葵秸秆热解气体产物中CO产量增加。该研究为向日葵秸秆的有效利用提供理论基础和技术支撑。     

Intensive organic vegetable production increases soil organic carbon but with a lower carbon conversion efficiency than integrated management

Intensive vegetable production in greenhouses has rapidly expanded in China since the 1990s and increased to 1.3 million ha of farmland by 2016, which is the highest in the world. We conducted an 11‐year greenhouse vegetable production experiment from 2002 to 2013 to observe soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics under three management systems, i.e., conventional (CON), integrated (ING), and intensive organic (ORG) farming. Soil samples (0–20 and 20–40 cm depth) were collected in 2002 and 2013 and separated into four particle‐size fractions, i.e., coarse sand (> 250 µm), fine sand (250–53 µm), silt (53–2 µm), and clay (< 2 µm). The SOC contents and δ¹³C values of the whole soil and the four particle‐size fractions were analyzed. After 11 years of vegetable farming, ORG and ING significantly increased SOC stocks (0–20 cm) by 4008 ± 36.6 and 2880 ± 365 kg C ha^?1 y^?1, respectively, 8.1‐ and 5.8‐times that of CON (494 ± 42.6 kg C ha^?1 y^?1). The SOC stock increase in ORG at 20–40 cm depth was 245 ± 66.4 kg C ha^?1 y^?1, significantly higher than in ING (66 ± 13.4 kg C ha^?1 y^?1) and CON (109 ± 44.8 kg C ha^?1 y^?1). Analyses of ¹³C revealed a significant increase in newly produced SOC in both soil layers in ORG. However, the carbon conversion efficiency (CE: increased organic carbon in soil divided by organic carbon input) was lower in ORG (14.4%–21.7%) than in ING (18.2%–27.4%). Among the four particle‐sizes in the 0–20 cm layer, the silt fraction exhibited the largest proportion of increase in SOC content (57.8% and 55.4% of the SOC increase in ORG and ING, respectively). A similar trend was detected in the 20–40 cm soil layer. Over all, intensive organic (ORG) vegetable production increases soil organic carbon but with a lower carbon conversion efficiency than integrated (ING) management.

Role of cytokeratin 8 on changes of intestinal epithelial permeability induced by corticotropin-releasing factor

AIM: To investigate the role of cytokeratin 8 (CK8) on the change of intercellular permeability of intestinal epithelial cells induced by corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). METHODS: The expression levels of CRF receptor 1 (CRFR1) and CRFR2 on human colon adenocarcinoma HT29 cell surface were determined by immunofluorescence staining. After treatment with 100 nmol/L CRF for 72 h, the translocation of FITC-labelled dextran was measured in a Transwell chamber. The structural changes of tight junctions were observed under transmission electron microscope. The expression levels of CK8, and tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occludin were determined by Western blot. The activity of protein kinase C (PKC) was detected by ELISA. Furthermore, the effects of CRF on intestinal epithelial permeability were examined in CK8-silencing HT29 cells, which were constructed by infection with sh-CK8 lentivirus. RESULTS: CRF treatment increased the permeability of FITC-labelled dextran (P<0.05), caused the opening of tight junctions, and induced increased fluorescence intensity of CK8. The expression levels of occludin and ZO-1 were down-regulated (P<0.05). PKC activity was decreased at 1 h after CRF treatment (P<0.05). CRF-induced increase in the permeability and down-regulation of occludin were not blocked by CK8 silencing. Nevertheless,CK8 silencing blocked the effects of CRF regarding the decrease in the expression levels of ZO-1 and the increase in PKC activity (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: CK8 may be involved in CRF-induced increase in intestinal epithelial permeability by inhibiting the activity of PKC, and there may be other signaling pathways involved.     

不同吸附特性的稻草生物炭对稻田氨挥发和水稻产量的影响

秸秆生物炭具有改善土壤生态环境、土壤蓄水保肥和减少温室气体排放等正效应,但其石灰效应会加大稻田氨挥发损失。为充分发挥生物炭吸铵特性,降低其石灰效应的不利影响,对不同热解温度(300、500、700℃)和酸化水平(pH值=5、7、9)稻草生物炭处理下的田面水NH_4~+-N浓度、氨挥发和水稻产量进行了研究。结果表明:偏酸性(pH值=5)、中性(p H值=7)生物炭处理在基肥期和分蘖肥期均能显著降低田面水NH_4~+-N峰值浓度(P0.05),降幅达16.90%～35.60%。全生育期稻田氨挥发损失占施氮量的15.14%～26.05%(2019年)、15.10%～19.00%(2020年)。稻田增施热解温度为700℃、酸化水平为5(p H值=5)的生物炭(C700P5)降氨效果最好,两年氨挥发分别显著降低22.93%、12.61%(P0.05)。高温热解配合偏酸性、中性生物炭(C700P5、C700P7)增产效果显著,增产率达9.92%～13.50%,结构方程模型表明,其增产原因是生物炭酸化处理降低了稻草生物炭的石灰效应,而热解温度调整提高了生物炭阳离子交换量(CationExchange Capacity,CEC),进而降低了田面水NH_4~+-N浓度和氨挥发损失,最终提高了水稻地上部氮素积累和水稻产量。研究可揭示不同热解温度和酸化水平制备的生物炭在稻田中的应用潜力,并为稻田合理施用生物炭和减少化肥施用量提供理论依据。     

调理剂及农艺措施对污染稻田中水稻吸收镉的影响

【目的】探究水分管理、调理剂措施和组合措施对污染稻田稻米降Cd效果,旨在探索出不显著降低水稻产量前提下,能更高效降低土壤Cd生物有效性和稻米中Cd含量的方法。【方法】在湖南省株洲市选择中度Cd污染稻田开展田间小区水稻试验。试验中水稻种植两季,早稻品种为中嘉早17,晚稻为泰优390。试验分为6组,分别为水分管理（T2）处理、施用硅肥（T3）处理、施用竹炭处理（T4）、施用硅肥结合水分管理（T5）处理、施用竹炭结合水分管理（T6）处理和1个试验对照（T1）,重复3次。【结果】试验各处理对稻田土壤有效态Cd含量均有降低,竹炭结合水分管理（T6）处理对两季水稻土壤均有显著降低,硅肥结合水分管理（T5）处理对晚稻土壤有效态Cd降低幅度最大。试验各处理对水稻各部位Cd含量均有降低效果,在糙米Cd含量方面,5个试验处理中对糙米Cd含量降低幅度以组合措施修复技术效果最好,即硅肥结合水分管理（T5）和竹炭结合水分管理（T6）处理。在水分管理修复技术(T2)中降Cd效果最高为29.23%;在施用调理剂修复技术中,硅肥处理（T3）和竹炭处理（T4）对稻壳和糙米中Cd含量均有显著降低（P＜0.05）作用,其中硅肥处理（T3）糙米最高降Cd幅度为49.23%,竹炭处理（T4）糙米最高降Cd幅度为47.69%;在组合措施中均能显著降低水稻糙米Cd含量,其中硅肥结合水分管理（T5）处理糙米降Cd幅度为60.34%—78.46%,竹炭结合水分管理（T6）糙米降Cd幅度为56.90%—67.69%。同时,本文对土壤有效态Cd含量与水稻各部位Cd含量相关性进行分析,发现水稻籽粒（稻壳与糙米）中Cd含量与土壤有效态Cd含量存在极显著正相关（P＜0.01）,且两个水稻品种规律一致。各处理对水稻各部位富集系数亦有降低效果,以硅肥结合水分管理（T5）处理和竹炭结合水分管理（T6）效果最好。对于水稻各部位向籽粒转运系数降低效果各部位规律不一致,但茎鞘和叶片两个部位向籽粒（稻壳和糙米）转运系数均显著降低,水分管理（T2）处理除外。在水稻产量方面,仅水分管理（T2）处理对中嘉早17有显著降低,其他处理降低幅度不显著,各处理对泰优390处理没有显著影响。【结论】组合措施优于单一水分管理或单一调理剂处理,且在水稻产量没有显著降低情况下对稻米Cd污染稻田稻米降Cd幅度最高达到78.46%,可以进一步确保Cd污染农田安全利用。     

Effect of miR-29b-mediated TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway on progression of hepatic fibrosis in rats

AIM: To investigate the role of microRNA-29b (miR-29b)-mediated TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway in the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and its effect on the progression of hepatic fibrosis in rats.METHODS: Hepatic liver fibrosis rat model was established, and its HSC were isolated. Normal rat HSC were also obtained and identified in vitro. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the alterations of miR-29b, TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway-related proteins and liver fibrosis marker proteins in the acquired cells. Finally, the direct targeting binding of miR-29b to TGF-β1 was identified by dual-luciferase reporter assay system.RESULTS: With the activation of HSC, the expression of miR-29b gradually decreased (P<0.01), while the expression of collagen type I and α-smooth muscle actin gradually increased (P<0.01). At the same time, the expression of Smad2/3/4 was significantly increased, and the expression of Smad7 was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Dual-luciferase reporter assay showed that miR-29b bound directly to "UCUCUCCGU" in the 3'UTR of TGF-β1, indicating that TGF-β1 was a downstream target gene of miR-29b.CONCLUSION: miR-29b may be involved in the inhibition of HSC activation and migration, thereby inhibiting the process of liver fibrosis. The biological function of miR-29b may be through the direct targeting of TGF-β1, thus regulating and inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway.
