“…ALI induced by TBI is exhibited by several pathological changes including cell apoptosis, OS injury, and inflammatory response (45). MDA, GSH, and SOD are reported to be key parameters of OS (29). In line with our study, it has been proven that when OS was alleviated, the level of MDA was decreased but GSH content and SOD activity were increased (36).…”

The mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) is a potential strategy in the pretreatment of traumatic acute lung injury (ALI), a disease that causes inflammation and oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate whether MSC-exosomal microRNA-124-3p (miR-124-3p) affects traumatic ALI. Initially, a traumatic ALI rat model was established using the weight-drop method. Then, exosomes were obtained from MSCs of Sprague-Dawley rats, which were injected into the traumatic ALI rats. We found that miR-124-3p was abundantly-expressed in MSCs-derived exosomes and could directly target purinergic receptor P2X ligand-gated ion channel 7 (P2X7), which was overexpressed in traumatic ALI rats. After that, a loss- and gain-of-function study was performed in MSCs and traumatic ALI rats to investigate the role of miR-124-3p and P2X7 in traumatic ALI. MSC-derived exosomal miR-124-3p or silenced P2X7 was observed to increase the survival rate of traumatic ALI rats and enhance the glutathione/superoxide dismutase activity in their lung tissues. However, the wet/dry weight of lung tissues, activity of methylenedioxyamphetamine and H2O2, and levels of inflammatory factors (TNF-a, IL-6, and IL-8) were reduced. Similarly, the numbers of total cells, macrophages, neutrophils, and lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were also reduced when treated with exosomal miR-124-3p or silenced P2X7. In conclusion, the results provide evidence that miR-124-3p transferred by MSC-derived exosomes inhibited P2X7 expression, thus improving oxidative stress injury and suppressing inflammatory response in traumatic ALI, highlighting a potential pretreatment for traumatic ALI.

“…In general, organisms have a degree of adaptation to salinity, for example, when salinity increases, ions in fish get out of balance, the gills and intestines usually compensate for ion loss in a passive manner, and the excess water is drained from the body through kidneys and bladders (Kang et al, 2008). Meanwhile, the content of growth hormone, insulin, cortisol, other hormones, Na + /K + ‐adenosine triphosphatase (NKA), and vacuolar H + ‐adenosine triphosphatase increased rapidly to maintain the osmotic pressure balance in the body (Evans et al, 2005; Janech & Piermarini, 2002; Madsen et al, 2009; Meier et al, 2009): antioxidant enzyme activities are enhanced to cope with the oxidation loss caused by salinity stress (Loro et al, 2012; Moniruzzaman et al, 2018). When the salinity decreases, the rate of drinking decreases among fish, salinity in urine decreases, and the gills actively absorb ions to compensate for the loss of salt via urination.…”

Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS), as a modern highly intensive aquaculture mode, demonstrates the advantages of environmental friendliness, high efficiency and sustainable development, and has been widely used worldwide; they are also expected to be more widely applied in industrial aquaculture in the future as our natural resources are decreasing. However, RAS imposes very high requirements on operating conditions, including temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, stocking density, light, feed composition, feeding amount, feeding frequency, and disinfection methods. Each factor is critical to the stable operation of the system. Therefore, to ensure the efficient and stable operation of RAS, its influencing factors must be controlled to within appropriate ranges. Herein, the factors affecting the operation of RAS are reviewed, and the mechanisms of their influence on the reared organisms are revealed, and suggestions on the control of these factors in aquaculture are proposed. This review can provide a theoretical basis for the further development of RAS.

“…In addition, plasma membrane H + -ATP enzyme is not only a key enzyme to maintain plant plasma membrane potential, but also participates in K homeostasis under drought stress [34]. Under salt stress, the special ion environment of low Na + and high K + in cells was maintained by Na + K + -ATPase activity, and the transport driving force of some substances was provided [35].…”

Effects of Hydrogen-Rich Water on Postharvest Physiology in Scales of Lanzhou Lily during Storage

et al. 2023

Hydrogen gas (H2) is considered as a signaling molecule and plays multiple roles in plant growth. However, the effect of H2 on postharvest physiology in lily scales during storage has not been reported. In this study, the regulatory roles of hydrogen-rich water (HRW, a H2 donor, a concentration of 0.45 mM for 100% HRW) in water status, ion balance, and nutrients in Lanzhou lily (Lilium davidii var. unicolor) scales were investigated. The scales were soaked in HRW for 12 d, and sampling was performed every 3 d for a total of 5 times. The results show that HRW (0, 10, 50, and 100%) increased the fresh weight, dry weight, relative water content, and water loss rate in lily scales, with maximum biological response at 50% HRW. Treatment with 50% HRW significantly increased the K+ content and K+/Na+ ratio in lily scales and decreased Na+ content. The Na+ K+-ATPase, and PM H+-ATPase activities were also increased by 50% HRW treatment. Meanwhile, 50% HRW up-regulated the expression of AKT1 and HA3 genes and down-regulated the expression of NHX2 and SOS1 genes. In addition, 50% HRW treatment significantly increased the expression level of PIP1;5, PIP2A, TIP1;3, and TIP2;2 genes. Treatment with 50% HRW significantly increased the content of water-soluble carbohydrate, sucrose, glucose, and fructose in lily scales, and decreased the content of starch. In addition, 50% HRW treatment significantly increased the activity of α-amylase, β-amylase, total amylase, sucrose synthase, and sucrose phosphate synthase. Collectively, H2 might enhance the water retention capacity and nutrient content in lily scales by maintaining ion balance, regulating aquaporin, and increasing sugar-metabolizing enzyme activity, thereby prolonging the storage period of postharvest scales of Lanzhou lily.
