In the present study, metagenomic approach was leveraged to determine modulations in nutrient cycling and microbial composition along with connected nexus of pesticide, antibiotic, and heavy metal resistance in selected crop and fallow soils having history of consistent pesticide applications. GC–MS analysis estimated residuals of chlorpyrifos, hexachlorbenzene, and dieldrin showing persistent nature of pesticides that pose selective pressure for microbial adaptation. Taxonomic profiling showed increased abundance of pesticide degrading <i>Streptomyces</i>, <i>Xanthomonas</i>, <i>Cupriavidus</i>, and <i>Pseudomonas</i> across the selected soils. Genes encoding for pesticide degrading cytochrome p450, organophosphorus hydrolase, aldehyde dehydrogenase, and oxidase were predominant and positively correlated with <i>Bacillus</i>, <i>Sphingobium</i>, and <i>Burkholderia</i>. Nitrogen-fixing genes (<i>nifH</i>, <i>narB</i>, and <i>nir</i>) were relatively less abundant in crop soils, correlating to the decrease in nitrogen-fixing bacteria (<i>Anabaena</i>, <i>Pantoea</i>, and <i>Azotobacter</i>). Microbial enzymes involved in carbon (<i>pfkA</i>, <i>gap</i>, <i>pgi</i>, and <i>tpiA</i>) and phosphorus cycle (<i>gmbh</i> and <i>phnJ</i>) were significantly higher in crop soils indicating extensive utilization of pesticide residuals as a nutrient source by the indigenous soil microbiota. Additionally, presence of antibiotic and heavy metal resistance genes suggested potential cross-resistance under pressure from pesticide residues. The results implied selective increase in pesticide degrading microbes with decrease in beneficial bacteria that resulted in reduced soil health and fertility. The assessment of agricultural soil microbial profile will provide a framework to develop sustainable agriculture practices to conserve soil health and fertility.</p>","PeriodicalId":465,"journal":{"name":"Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology","volume":"184 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141881021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quercetin and rutin showed a high ability to remove active ROS, but troxerutin and acetylsalicylic acid exhibited little such function. In RAW 264.7 cells, quercetin, rutin, and troxerutin did not exhibit cellular toxicity at low concentrations. In addition, quercetin, rutin, and troxerutin considerably (p < 0.05) lowered the protein expression of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) as compared to acetylsalicylic acid in cells inflamed with lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Additionally, in inflamed cells, quercetin and rutin significantly down-regulated the nitrogen oxide (NO) level (p < 0.05) at higher concentrations, whereas Troxerutin did not reduce the NO level. In addition, Troxerutin down-regulated the pro-inflammatory protein markers, such as TNF-α, COX-2, NF-κB, and IL-1β better than quercetin, rutin, and acetylsalicylic acid. We observed that troxerutin exhibited a significantly greater anti-inflammatory effect than acetylsalicylic acid did. Acetylsalicylic acid did not significantly down-regulated the expression of COX-2 and TNF-α (p < 0.05) compared to troxerutin.

Overexpression of lnc NBAT1 was studied to explore its influence on malignant behaviors of Bel7402 cells and the development of LC in the xenograft mouse model (XMM). The regulation mechanism of lnc NBAT1 in LC was explored by lnc NBAT1 overexpression, miR-21 mimic treatment, or PDCD4 silencing in Bel7402 cells. Lnc NBAT1 expression was downregulated while miR-21 expression was upregulated in LC tissues and cell lines. In comparison with LX-2 cells, the expressions of PDCD4 and AP-1 were downregulated in Bel7402 cells, while those of p-c-Fos, p-c-Jun, and cyclin D1 were upregulated. Further, lnc NBAT1 was found to localize primarily in the cytoplasm of Bel7402 cells. Overexpression of lnc NBAT1 enhanced cell apoptosis, blocked the cell cycle, suppressed malignant behaviors of Bel7402 cells, and inhibited tumor progression in the XMM.
