Objective:To investigate the role of microglial polarization modulated by triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2/insulin-like growth factor-1(TREM2/IGF-1) in hypertensive model mice exposed to diesel exhaust particulate matter (DPM), with a focus on its implications for anxious- and depressive-like behaviors.Methods:SPF-grade male C57BL/6J mice were divided into the control group, the hypertension group, the DPM group, and the hypertension+ DPM group according to the principle of weight-matching, with 10 mice in each group. The hypertension model was established by intraperitoneal injection of angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) in hypertension group and hypertension+ DPM group, and mice in the control group and DPM group were intraperitoneally injected with an equivalent amount of 0.9% NaCl solution.DPM suspension was instilled into the nasal cavity of the mice in DPM group and hypertension+ DPM group(1 μg/μL, 10 μL, once a day for 56 days).Behavioral tests, including the sucrose preference test, tail suspension test, elevated plus maze test, and open field test, were conducted to evaluate anxious- and depressive-like behaviors.TREM2-overexpressing BV2 cell model was established through plasmid transfection technology.Western blot was applied to measure the protein expression of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, iNOS, Arg-1, TREM2 and IGF-1.SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis, one-way ANOVA was used for comparison among multiple groups, and LSD- t test was used for post-hoc testing. Results:(1)There were statistically significant differences in the sucrose preference rate, immobility time in the tail suspension test, percentage of time and number of entries into the open arms in the elevated plus maze, as well as the total distance, percentage of time spent in the central area in the open field test among the four groups of mice( F=22.82, 21.60, 36.17, 20.99, 5.85, 13.24, all P<0.01).The sucrose preference rate, percentage of time spent in the open arms, percentage of number of entries into the open arms, total distance and percentage of time spent in the central area of the DPM group and the hypertension group were lower than those of the control group( P<0.05), while the immobility time of the two group was higher than that of the control group( P<0.05). The sucrose preference rate((55.62±4.46)%) and percentage of time spent in the open arms((4.17±0.62)%) of the hypertension+ DPM group were lower than those of the DPM group((60.78±3.21)%, (6.44±0.89)%) and the hypertension group((66.26±4.25)%, (6.53±1.29)%)(all P<0.05), while the immobility time((155.42±12.50)s) was higher than that of the DPM group((129.03±5.43)s) and the hypertension group((129.28±10.55)s)(both P<0.05).(2)Western blot analysis revealed statistically significant differences in protein expression of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, iNOS, Arg-1, and TREM2/IGF-1 in the medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC) among the four experimental groups( F=12.23, 10.51, 33.89, 145.40, 11.85, 15.56, 33.11, all P<0.05).The hypertension+ DPM group demonstrated significantly higher protein expression of IL-1β and IL-6 compared to the hypertension group (all P<0.05). Relative to the hypertension+ DPM group, TNF-α and iNOS protein expression was elevated in both the hypertension group and DPM group, whereas Arg-1 protein expression was lower in the hypertension group(all P<0.05). Additionally, TREM2 and IGF-1 protein expression in the hypertension and DPM groups were lower than those in the control group but higher than those in the hypertension+ DPM group(all P<0.05).(3)The protein expressions of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in BV2 cells of the DPM+ AngⅡ-TREM2 overexpression group were lower than those of the DPM+ AngⅡ group. The expression of iNOS was lower than that in the DPM+ AngⅡ group, while the expression of Arg-1 was higher than that in the DPM+ AngⅡ group(all P<0.05). Conclusion:DPM exposure aggravates anxious- and depressive-like behaviors in hypertensive model mice, with TREM2/IGF-1-regulated microglial polarization playing a significant role in this process.

Background Lead exposure induces microglial cell death, of which the mechanism is unclear. Ferroptosis is a new death form and its role in microglia death has not been reported. Objective To investigate the role of ferroptosis in microglia following lead exposure in order to provide a theoretical basis for the mechanism of lead neurotoxicity. Methods Microglial cell line BV-2 cells were co-cultured with 0, 10, 20 and 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate for 24 h. The 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate group with iron chelator (DFO) was named the 40+DFO group. Changes in BV-2 cell morphology after lead exposure were observed under an inverted microscope; tissue iron kit and glutathione kit were used to detect intracellular iron and glutathione (GSH) respectively; flow cytometry was applied to detect lipid reactive oxygen species (lipid ROS) immunofluorescence intensity. Western blotting and qPCR were adopted to detect the expressions of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), transferrin receptor 1 (TFR-1), divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), ferroportin 1 (FPN1) protein and mRNA. Results Compared with the control group, the number of BV-2 cells decreased with increasing doses of lead and the cells showed a large, round amoeboid shape. The intracellular levels of iron of BV-2 cells were (1.08±0.04), (1.29±0.03), and (1.72±0.10) mg·g⁻¹ (calculated by protein, thereafter) in the 10, 20, and 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate groups, respectively, significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), and the intracellular level of iron in the 40+DFO group, (1.34±0.10) mg·g⁻¹, was lower than that in the 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate group, (1.72±0.03) mg·g⁻¹ (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the TFR-1 and DMT1 protein and mRNA expressions were increased in BV-2 cells in the 10, 20, 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate groups (P<0.05), especially in the 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate group; the FPN1 protein expression did not change significantly, but the FPN1 mRNA expressions in BV-2 cells in the 10, 20, 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the intracellular GSH level decreased and the lipid ROS content increased in all three lead acetate groups; compared with the 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate group, the GSH level increased by 12.30% and the lipid ROS content decreased by 13.00% in the 40+DFO group (P<0.05). The expressions of GPX4 protein were reduced to 50.00%, 35.00%, and 17.00% of that of the control group in the 10, 20, and 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate groups respectively, while the expressions of GPX4 mRNA were also significantly reduced; the expressions of SLC7A11 protein and mRNA in the 20 and 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate groups were lower than that in the control group, with the most significant decrease in the 40 μmol·L⁻¹ lead acetate group (P<0.05). Conclusion Lead exposure could induce ferroptosis in BV-2 cells, in which iron transport imbalance and oxidative damage might be involved.

Background Bromadiolone is the second-generation anticoagulant rodenticide widely used all over the world. Exposure to bromadiolone in early life stage can lead to neurodevelopmental toxicity, but its toxic mechanism of neurodevelopment is not clear so far. Objective To investigate the developmental neurotoxicity and mechanism of bromadiolone to zebrafish embryos. Methods Zebrafish embryos were randomly divided into four groups: a solvent control group (dimethylsulphoxide) and three bromadiolone exposure groups (0.39, 0.78, and 1.18 mg·L⁻¹). The exposure period was from 4 h to 120 h post-fertilization. The number of spontaneous movement per minute was recorded at 24 h post-treatment. The locomotor ability of zebrafish larvae and the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were tested at 120 h post-treatment. The relative expression levels of neurodevelopment-related genes (elavl3, gap43, mbp, and syn2a) were measured by fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results Compared with the control group, the number of spontaneous movement per minute at 24 h decreased significantly in the 1.18 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the total distance travelled of the zebrafish larvae in the 0.78 and 1.18 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure groups decreased by 60% and 69% respectively (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the total movement time decreased by 34% and 65% respectively (P<0.05, P<0.01). The AChE activity in the 1.18 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure group increased by 36% when compared with the control group (P<0.05). The fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that compared with the control group, the expression levels of neurodevelopment-related genes elavl3, syn2a, and mbp were significantly down-regulated by 66%, 69%, and 65% in the 1.18 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure group respectively (P<0.01), the expression level of gap43 was up-regulated by 56% in the 0.78 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure group (P<0.01) and down-regulated by 34% in the 1.18 mg·L⁻¹ bromadiolone exposure group (P<0.05). Conclusion Bromadiolone exposure could inhibit spontaneous movement and locomotive behavior, down-regulate the expression levels of neurodevelopment-related genes, hinder the release of neurotransmitters, and result in neurodevelopmental toxicity in the early-staged zebrafish.

Objective To assess the structure validity of application of sub-health measurement scale version 1.0(SHMS V1.0)in college students in Guangzhou City to lay a foundation for further analyzing the healthy status in this group and its influen-cing factors.Methods Nine hundreds college students were selected by adopting the stratified random sampling method for conduc-ting the questionnaire survey.The SPSS20.0 and AMOS21.0 were adopted to conduct the exploratory factor analysis(EFA)and confirmatory factor analysis(CFA)respectively.Results EFA obtained 7 factors with eigenvalue more than 1,the cumulative vari-ance contribution rate was 56.766%,moreover 7 factors were basically consistent with the theoretical structure of SHMS V 1.0. CFA conducted the model fitting for 3 total scales and 3 subscales,the results showed that the fitting of 3 subscales was good,the fitting result of total scale could be accepted,but did not reach the desired effect.Therefore,five times modification was applied in the total scale,and the fitting indexes after modification were CMIN/DF=2.723,GFI=0.907,IFI=0.917,TLI= 0.905,CFI=0.917,RMSEA=0.046,the fitting effect was comparatively excellent.Conclusion The dimension division of sub-health measure-ment scale is basically reasonable,and using this scale for measuring the sub-health status of college students in Guangzhou City has a better structure validity.
