[PMID: 38581879 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
Phosphate-mineralizing bacteria (PMBs) have been widely studied by inducing phosphate heavy metal precipitation, but current researches neglect to study their effects on soil-microbe-crop systems on cadmium (Cd) contaminated. Based on this, a strain PMB, Enterobacter sp. PMB-5, was inoculated into Cd contaminated pots to detect soil characteristics, Cd occurrence forms, soil biological activities, plant physiological and biochemical indicators. The results showed that the inoculation of strain PMB-5 significantly increased the available phosphorus content (85.97%-138.64%), Cd-residual fraction (11.04%-29.73%), soil enzyme activities (31.94%-304.63%), plant biomass (6.10%-59.81%), while decreased the state of Cd-HOAc (11.50%-31.17%) and plant bioconcentration factor (23.76%-44.24%). These findings indicated that strain PMB-5 could perform the function of phosphorus solubilization to realize the immobilization of Cd in the complex soil environment. Moreover, SEM-EDS, FTIR, XPS, and XRD analysis revealed that strain PMB-5 does not significantly alter the soil morphology, structure, elemental distribution, and chemical composition, which suggested that remediation of Cd contamination using strain PMB-5 would not further burden the soil. This research implies that PMB-5 could be a safe and effective bioinoculant for remediating Cd-contaminated soils, contributing to the sustainable management of soil health in contaminated environments.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 342:123052. [PMID: 38040187 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.123052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
Fungal endophytes not only tolerate and activate Cd in soil but also promote host growth, yet its Cd activation capacity and mechanism remain unrevealed. Our previous study isolated a robust endophyte Bacillus thuringiensis L1 from Coprinus comatus fruiting body with splendid Cd resistance and activation abilities under laboratory conditions. In this study, those peculiarities were investigated in the actual soil environment. L1 could significantly increase the soil bioavailable Cd content and effectively compensate for alkali-hydro nitrogen losses and microbial inhibition caused by Cd. Furthermore, L1 inoculation improved the soil's bacterial community structure and increased the relative abundance of Cd-resistant bacteria, such as Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi, Acidobacter, and Firmicutes, closely associated with the soil enzyme activity shift. The genome sequencing analysis revealed the presence of genes related to growth promotion, resistance to Cd stress, and Cd activation, which were significantly up-regulated under Cd stress. Notably, L1 mainly activates Cd in soil by secreting citric acid, succinic acid, siderophore, and soluble phosphorus substances to chelate with Cd or dissolve bounded Cd. Meanwhile, the metal-responsive transcription repressor (CadC) and the Cd-translocating protein P-type ATPase (CadA) can help the L1 to suppress the toxicity of Cd. Those results help to unveil the possible mechanism of L1 in Cd-contaminated soil remediation, providing a clear strategy for Cd bio-extraction from soil.

[PMID: 36240921 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.159384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2022] [Revised: 10/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Phytoremediation assisted by endophytic bacteria is promising to efficiently remediate cadmium (Cd) contaminated soil. Bacillus cereus BL4, isolated from Miscanthus floridulus growing around a pyrite mine, exhibited high Cd tolerance and plant growth-promoting traits and could improve Cd bioavailability in soil. As a result of the pot experiment, after inoculation with strain BL4, the fresh weight, height, and Cd accumulation of Miscanthus floridulus shoots increased by 19.08-32.26 %, 6.02-16.60 %, and 23.67 %-24.88 %, respectively, and roots increased by 49.38-56.41 %, 22.87-33.93 %, and 28.51 %-42.37 %, respectively. Under Cd stress, the chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, and root activity of Miscanthus floridulus increased, while the membrane permeability and malonaldehyde (MDA) content significantly decreased after the inoculation of BL4, which indicated the alleviation of the cytotoxicity of Cd. Accordingly, the glutathione (GSH) content increased, and the activities of antioxidant enzymes presented downward trends after BL4 inoculation. Cd bioavailability in soil increased after BL4 inoculation, accompanied by increases in the activities of soil enzymes (invertase, urease, alkaline phosphatase, dehydrogenase, FDA hydrolase, and catalase) as well as the richness and diversity of soil bacteria. Our findings revealed that strain BL4 might strengthen the phytoremediation of Cd by Miscanthus floridulus through its effects on plant physio-biochemistry and soil microecology, which provided a basis for the relative application to Cd-contaminated soil.

Abstract
Soil ecosystem functions and microbial community structure were severely impaired with long-term cadmium (Cd) contamination and acidification. To investigate the effect of amendments on soil physiochemical parameters and soil micro-ecology in acidic Cd contaminated soil, this study was conducted in a pot experiment with the application of calcium amendments, oyster shell powders (OS) and limestone (LM). Each amendment applied at ratios of 1.0%, 3.0%, and 5.0% (w/w), respectively. The results showed that the application of amendments increased the soil pH by 2.10-2.88, the bioavailable Cd decreased by 12.49%-19.48%, and un-bioavailable Cd increased by 96.57%-200.7%. The OS increased the richness index (Chao and Ace increased by 13.23%-16.20% and 7.13%-47.63%), and LM increased the microbial diversity index (Shannon increased by 1.14%-8.72% and Simpson indexes decreased by 28.00%-63.61%). In LM groups, soil microbial communities were significantly altered with increasing application concentrations, the relative abundance of phylum Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota and Gemmatimonadota increased, while Firmicute, Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi decreased. In OS treatments, the soil microbial community structure was basically unchanged. The correlation analysis showed that pH, TN, TP, CEC, OM were the dominant factors affecting the microbial community. This study has shown that application of amendments could effectively reduce the Cd bioavailability in soil, but LM altered the soil microbial community structure, while OS maintained the soil microbiological structure.

Abstract
The function and mechanism of nitric oxide (NO) in regulating Pleurotus eryngii biological response to cadmium (Cd) stress was evaluated by using anti-oxidation and short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family analysis. The fresh biomass of P. eryngii mycelia sharply decreased after treatment with 50 µM Cd; the lipid peroxidation and H2O2 accumulation in P. eryngii were found responsible for it. Proper exogenous supply of NO (150 µM SNP) alleviated the oxidative damage induced by Cd stress in P. eryngii, which reduced the accumulation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and H2O2. The activities of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase) were significantly increased to deal with Cd stress when treated with SNP (150 µM), and the content of proline was also closely related to NO-mediated reduction of Cd toxicity. Moreover, SDR family members were widely involved in the response to Cd stress, especially PleSCH70 gene was observed for the first time in participating in NO-mediated enhancement of Cd tolerance in P. eryngii. Taken together, this study provides new insights in understanding the tolerance mechanisms of P. eryngii to heavy metal and lays a foundation for molecular breeding of P. eryngii to improve its tolerance to environmental stress.

Abstract
The bioaccessibility and bioavailability of different cadmium (Cd) levels (low: 7.31 mg/kg, medium: 24.20 mg/kg, high: 41.64 mg/kg) in Boletus griseus were evaluated by establishing a bionic digestive system in vitro. The results showed that the bioaccessibility of high Cd level by gastrointestinal digestion was significantly higher than other two levels. Further, colonic digestion significantly increased the bioaccessibilities of low Cd level (p < 0.05). After intestinal flora fermentation, the bioaccessibilities of different Cd levels significantly decreased (p < 0.05), and high and medium Cd levels had no significant difference (p > 0.05). A Caco-2 monolayer cell model was established to evaluate the bioavailability of Cd. The bioavailabilities of low and high Cd levels by gastrointestinal digestion were 8.75 and 10.58%, and the bioavailabilities increased by 38.17% and 5.20% after colonic digestion, respectively. Furthermore, Cd could affect diversity, composition, and balance of intestinal flora, and the relative abundances of several genera were correlation with Cd levels in B. griseus.

Abstract
Soils co-contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and cadmium (Cd) have serious environmental impacts and are highly toxic to humans and ecosystems. Phytoremediation is an effective biotechnology for the remediation and restoration of PAH- and Cd-polluted soils. Pot experiments were conducted to investigate the individual and combined effects of PAHs (1238.62 mg kg-1) and Cd (23.1 mg kg-1) on the phytoremediation potential of Bermuda grass grown in contaminated soils. Bermuda grass exhibited a significant decrease in plant growth rate, leaf pigment content, root activity, plant height and biomass and a remarkable increase in malondialdehyde content and electrolyte leakage when grown in PAH- and Cd-contaminated soils compared with grass grown in uncontaminated soils. The activity of soil enzymes, including urease, alkaline phosphatase, sucrose, and fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis, were reduced in soil with PAH and Cd stress. Furthermore, the toxicity of combined PAHs and Cd on Bermuda grass growth and soil enzyme activity was much higher than that of PAH or Cd stress alone, suggesting a synergistic effect of PAHs and Cd on cytotoxicity. To scavenge redundant reactive oxygen species and avoid oxidative damage, Bermuda grass increased plant catalase, superoxide dismutase, and peroxidase activity and soluble sugar and proline content. The bioconcentration factor of Cd in Bermuda grass grown under Cd alone and combined PAH and Cd exposure was greater than 1 for both, suggesting that Bermuda grass has a high Cd accumulation ability. Under PAH alone and combined PAH and Cd exposure conditions, a higher PAH removal rate (41.5-56.8%) was observed in soils planted with Bermuda grass than in unplanted soils (24.8-29.8%), indicating that Bermuda grass has a great ability to degrade PAHs. Bermuda grass showed great phytoremediation potential for the degradation of PAHs and phytoextraction of Cd in co-contaminated soils.

Abstract
Characteristics and resistant mechanisms of macro-fungus endophytic bacteria to cadmium (Cd) have not been well defined. Strains L1 and L3 with Cd-resistant capacity were isolated from the fruiting body of Coprinus comatus, which were identified as Bacillus sp. Under the stress of Cd, the morphologies of both L1 and L3 changed to reduce the threat of Cd. The results of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry indicated that functional groups such as -OH, -COOH, and -NH2 participated in the Cd adsorption process. The contents of Cd adsorbed on the cell wall of L1 were 83.46-174.51% higher than that of L3. On the contrary, the contents of Cd accumulated in L1 cytoplasm were 38.77-74.77% lower than that of L3. As the level of Cd increased from 10 to 30 mg/L, the percentages of Cd distributed on the cell walls of L1 and L3 increased by 42.43% and 26.78%, respectively. The results also revealed that the contents of Cd absorbed by the sterilized strains L1 and L3 were 47.67-64.94% and 8.65-78.63% higher than that of living ones, respectively. In addition, the proline production of L1 was 23.75-109.68% higher than that of L3, while the malondialdehyde (MDA) production of L1 was 0.96-15.60% lower than that of L3. Thus, through the comparison of endophytic bacterial physiological responses, the possible characteristics and resistant mechanisms of macro-fungus endophytic bacteria under Cd stress were firstly reported.

Abstract
Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are a group of widespread persistent organic pollutants in the environment. Though the harmful effect of PAEs including activity inhibition of superoxide dismutase (SOD) to arouse oxidative stress were well documented, the deep insights into mechanisms that are relevant with SOD activity are still lacking. By 7d-cultivation of Eisenia fetida in artificially-polluted soil, the different active responses of SOD in earthworm were shown to PAE congeners. Despite the less bioaccumulation and bioavailability, the di-butyl phthalate (DBP) etc. structurally coupled with longer ester-chains appeared more effective to trigger the up-regulation and then the slight decline of SOD activity. Given the remarkable biotransformation especially for short-chain PAEs, the SOD activity response in earthworm should be regarded as joint effect with their metabolites, e.g. monophthalates (MAEs) and phthalic acid (PA). The in vitro SOD activity was shown with the obvious inhibition of 21.31% by DBP, 88.93% by MBP, and 58.57% by PA respectively when the concentrations were elevated up to 0.03 mM. The SOD activity inhibition confirmed the molecular binding with pollutants as an essential event besides the biological regulation for activity. The binding interaction was thermodynamically exothermic, spontaneous and strengthened primarily by Van der Waals force and hydrogen bonds, and was spectrally diagnosed with the conformational changes including diminution of α-helix content and spatial reorientation of fluorophore tryptophan. As coherently illustrated with the larger fluorescence quenching constants (3.65*104-4.47*104/mol) than DBP, the metabolites should be the priority concern due to stronger activity inhibition and toxicological risks.
