The meaning of proteome research,definition and technique system of proteome are summarized in this article.In the post-genome age,research on proteomics has become more and more important,because changes in proteins which are expressed by genes are the direct causes of life function disorders.Proteome is the entire complement of proteins expressed by a kind of cell,tissue or organism.Proteomic techniques mainly include two-dimensional electrophoresis,mass spectrometry and bioinformatics.In addition,the application of proteome techniques published home and abroad in the field of environmental health in recent years has also reviewed in this paper.

Objective To study the oxidative damage on testis of male rats induced by micro-nano-scale SiO2. Methods Male Wistar rats were exposed to nanometer SiO2(20-40 nm) and micro-meter SiO2(1-10 ?m)by intratracheal injection once two days. The rats were killed after 5 weeks of exposure. Some indicators related to the oxidative damage in the serum and the testis were determined. Results The activity of GSH-Px and SOD in the high dose groups decreased significantly and the MDA levels increased compared to the control group;The MDA levels of nano-silicon dioxide high dose group increased in the serum. Conclusion Nano-silicon dioxide may cause lipid peroxidation in the testis with a tendency of higher toxicity than that of micro-SiO2 at the same exposed level,the detail mechanism needs further discussion.

Objective To investigate the effect of nanotubes on rat aortic endothelium damage.Methods Wistar rats were intratracheally instilled with carbon nanotubes(CNTs) at the doses of 0,3.5 and 17.5 mg/kg,and with a carbon black negative control,or a quartz positive control.The rats were euthanized after 7 or 30 days of the single treatment,the oxidative stress(GSH,O_2~-?) was determined by using biochemical kits,the expression of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in serum was determined by using ELISA kits and ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on aortic endothelium was determined with immunohischemistry.Results The content of GSH and O_2~1?in serum increased with a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner.A up-regulated expression of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in serum and ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in the aortic endothelium was seen.No vascular damage was seen in the rat treated with carbon black,in those treated with high-dose CNTs obvious inflammation was revealed.Conclusion Carbon nanotubes exposure can induce oxidative stress which may be followed by the up-regulated expression of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in serum and ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in the aortic endothelium,and then the endothelium disfunction may occur.

The antibacterial property of silver nanoparticles has resulted in their widespread application in many fields,so the chance of silver nanoparticles exposure for human increased greatly.Thus,there is urgent need to assess the safety of such particle.So far,most toxicological studies of silver nanoparticles mainly focus on the cytotoxicity using different examination endpoint such as morphology,mitochondrial function,cell proliferation,enzyme activity,and so on.In addition,the in vitro studies on the toxicity of silver nanopoarticles are also reported,few of the study on molecule mechanism of toxicity was reported.This review provided a summary of antibacterial mechanism of silver nanoparticles and the current research situation of the safety.The future research direction of toxicological study of silver nanoparticles is also prospected based on the current knowledge.

Objective To investigate the toxic effect of lung and mechanism induced by silver nanoparticles(Nano-Ag),zinc oxide nanoparticles(Nano-ZnO)and titanium dioxide nanoparticles(Nano-TiO2) on rats.Methods Forty-two Wistar rats were divided into 7 groups randomly,including the control group,low(3.5 mg/kg) and high(17.5 mg/kg) dose groups of three nanomaterials.The rats were exposed by intratracheal instillation once two days for 5 weeks,and then killed by abdominal aorta bloodletting.The pathological examinations of rat lungs were performed,malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),reduced glutathione(GSH),nitrogen oxide(NO),interleukin-1(IL-1),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?) and macrophage inflammatory protein(MIP-2) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) were detected.Results The results of histopathological analysis indicated that the fibrous tubercle,pulmonary alveoli destruction and the matrix inflammation of lung tissue appeared in the exposure groups.The activities of SOD in three kinds of nanoparticles groups(except for Nano-TiO2 subgroup) significantly decreased(P

Objective To understand the pollution of particulate matters and the distribution of heavy metals in particulate matters. Methods Samples were collected with auto-sampling instrument for 32 consecutive days in heating period of Dec. 2003-Jan,2004, in a central area of Tianjin. The heavy metals were detected with atomic absorption spectrum, atomic fluorescence spectrum and plasma emission spectrum, 9 heavy metals were measured quantitatively. Results The rates of over standards for daily mean of TSP, IP, PM2.5 in heating period were 54.55%, 57.58%, 84.85% respectively. Content of some heavy metals such as Cd, Pb, Ni in the particulate matters were higher. Conclusion Air pollution with particulates in heating period is serious. PM2.5 carries more heavy metals than TSP and IP, so it is much more harmful to human health.

Objective To study the effects of formaldehyde inhalation on spatial learning abilities and hippocampal neurotransmitters levels of mice, and to explore the neurotoxic mechanism. Methods Three groups of male Kunming mice were exposed to different concentrations (0, 1.34 and 4.02 mg/m3) of gaseity formaldehyde, 4 h/day, for 7 consecutive days,and their behavior when they learned to perform a water labyrinth task and hippocampal neurotransmitters levels were tested. Results There was no significant difference was seen in swimming duration among groups. While on days 5 and 7, mice in group of 4.02 mg/m3 formaldehyde exposure made notable more swimming errors (P

Objective To explore the DNA damage in the bone-marrow cells of the mice exposed to the low level of gaseous benzene. Methods 615 mice were divided into 4 groups randomly, 6 in each: the control group, benzene exposed group, group immited by L615K lymphocyte cell, group immited by L615K lymphocyte cell and benzene exposed in combination. Benzene was exposed at the level of 1 mg/m3, 6 h per day for 10 days. SCGE was used to detect the DNA damage in the bone-marrow cells of the mice. Results Compared with the control, the DNA damage were significantly severe in the other 3 groups. But the DNA damage of the group immited by L615K lymphocyte cell and benzene exposed in combination was significantly lower than that of the group immited by L615K lymphocyte cell. The spleen and liver indexes were higher in the two groups immited by L615K lymphocyte cell and immited by L615K lymphocyte cell plus benzene exposed compared with the control group. Conclusion Benzene exposure at the low level can induce the DNA damage in the bone-marrow cells of the mice, but for those lymphatic leukemia mice, benzene exposure at the low level may inhibit this kind of damage, to elucidate the mechanism, further studies needs to be done.

Objective The genotoxicty and its molecular mechanism of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) were discussed through the oxidative DNA damage induced by environmental tobacco side_stream smoke(ETSS). Methods DNA adduct 8_hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8_OHdG) was used as a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. The level of 8_OHdG in DNA exposed to ETSS was detected by HPLC_EC.On the molecular biological level,the biological oxidative ability of ETSS on DNA molecule was studied.Organic and inorganic components in ETSS were analyzed by GC_MS and AAS respectively. Results Particles and VOCs in ETSS could directly induce oxidative DNA damage and form 8_OHdG.It was found that there were 123 and 84 kinds of organic compounds in particles and volatile organic compounds of tobacco smoke side stream,and 7 kinds of inorganic compounds in ETSS.Some components especially quinones and polyphenols in ETS,could produce free radicals in vitro by the auto_oxidation without any biological activity systems,and with the catalytic reaction of metals,the DNA aduct 8_OHdG was produced. Conclusion It was proved that ETS had biological oxidative ability on DNA and expressed direct genotoxicity.8_OHdG was a fine biomarker of effect of oxidative DNA damage.
