Abstract:

Dioxins are chemical compounds that may cause an inflammatory reaction. During dioxin-induced inflammation, generated reactive oxygen species lead to morphological changes in various tissues and in biochemical parameters. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the changes in the livers of rats whose mothers were exposed to dioxins and the protective role of α-tocopherol and acetylsalicylic acid in liver inflammation. The study material consisted of Buffalo rats who were the offspring of females treated with dioxin, dioxin + α-tocopherol, or dioxin + acetylsalicylic acid. Livers and blood sam

Abstract:

Dioxins are highly toxic and persistent halogenated organic pollutants belonging to two families i.e., Polychlorinated Dibenzo-p-Dioxins (PCDDs) and Polychlorinated Dibenzo Furans (PCDFs). They can cause cancer, reproductive and developmental issues, damage to the immune system, and can deeply interfere with the endocrine system. Dioxins toxicity is mediated by the Aryl-hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR) which mediates the cellular metabolic adaptation to these planar aromatic xenobiotics through the classical transcriptional regulation pathway, including AhR binding of ligand in the cytosol, transloc

Abstract:

Sphingomonas wittichiiRW1 is a bacterium of interest due to its ability to degrade polychlorinated dioxins, which represent priority pollutants in the USA and worldwide. Although its genome has been fully sequenced, many questions exist regarding changes in protein expression ofS. wittichiiRW1 in response to dioxin metabolism. We used difference gel electrophoresis (DIGE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) to identify proteomic changes induced by growth on dibenzofuran, a surrogate for dioxin, as compared to acetate.

Abstract:

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is one of the most harmful chemicals showing resistance to biodegradation. The majority of TCDD effects is mediated by the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) pathway. TCDD binding to AhR results in the activation of cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1) involved in dioxin biodegradation. The goal of the study was to explore the potential role of CYP1A2 in the metabolism of TCDD. We investigated a molecular structure of CYP1A2 and the binding selectivity and affinity between the pig CYP1A2 and: 1/ DiCDD or TCDD (dioxins differing in toxicity an

Abstract Metabolism of aryl hydrocarbons and toxicity of dioxins led to the discovery of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR). Tremendous advances have been made on multiplicity of AHR signaling and identification of endogenous ligands including the tryptophan metabolites FICZ and kynurenine. However, human AHR functions are still poorly understood due to marked species differences as well as cell-type- and cell context-dependent AHR functions. Observations in dioxin-poisoned individuals may provide hints to physiologic AHR functions in humans. Based on these observations three human AHR functi

More recent studies have also indicated that the AhR plays a role in the immune system notably in effector Th17 cells where it seems to be critical for the production of the IL-22 cytokine.

Abstract:

AbstractTriclosan (TCA) is an antibacterial and antimicrobial compound that is incorporated into toothpaste, soap, and liquid dishwasher. Continuous TCA exposure may contribute to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the microbiome. Triclosan also reacts to form dioxins, which bioaccumulate and are toxic to aquatic organisms, impedes the thyroid hormone metabolism of the human body. Laccases are multi copper-containing enzymes that can degrade the aromatic compounds and thus reduce their toxicity. To effectively degrade the compound, it is essential to understand the molecular function of the enzyme. Hence, a molecular docking study of laccase enzymes with Triclosan was done. The Tramates versicolor laccase structure was retrieved from PDB and ligand structure was taken from Pubchem. The binding mode and interaction of TCA and laccase were studied using Auto dock Vina software and the stability of the docked complex had been explored via Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation study using Schrodinger Desmonde. The binding affinity score was found to be −6.5kcal/mol. The majority of the residues in RMSF were within the 2.5Å limit. The radius of gyration remained within the range from 21.7 to 22.1Å for Laccase – TCA complex throughout the 50 ns simulation. MD simulation results show that the enzyme complex remains stable all through the catalytic action.

Abstract:

Abstract Biological processes are currently being investigated for use in spacecraft wastewater treatment. In a biological wastewater processor, microorganisms are used to degrade organic and inorganic contaminants to carbon dioxide, water, and other metabolic products. One step in the process is nitrification, in which ammonium ions in the wastewater stream are converted to nitrate ions. Traditional reactor designs for nitrification, which include continuously stirred tank reactors and trickling filters, are unsuitable for use on spacecraft due to their reliance on gravity for aeration.

Abstract:

Under normal conditions, Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF) is related to the metabolism of the cerebral tissue. Three factors that contribute significantly to the regulation of CBF include the carbon dioxide and hydrogen ion concentration, oxygen deficiency and the level of cerebral activity. These regulatory mechanisms ensure a constant CBF of 50 to 55 ml per 100g of brain per minute for mean arterial blood pressure between 60–180 mm Hg. Under severe conditions when the autoregulatory mechanism fails to compensate, sympathetic nervous system constricts the large and intermediate sized arteries and pr

Abstract:

Atrazine is a broadly used herbicide in agriculture and it was used here as a model to study the biodegradation of herbicides. The bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ADP metabolizes atrazine to carbon dioxide and ammonia and chloride. The genes encoding atrazine catabolism to cyanuric acid were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The genes were designated atzA, atzB and atzC. Each gene was sequenced. The enzyme activities were characterized. AtzA is atrazine chlorohydrolase which takes atrazine to hydroxyatrizine. AtzB is hydroxyatrazine N-ethylaminohydrolase which produces N-isopropylammelide an
