Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that function as diverse endogenous gene regulators at the post-transcriptional level. In past two decades, research effort on miRNA identification, and evolution has soared, so demand for databases. However, current plant databases suffer from several typical drawbacks, including a lack of entries many important species, uneven annotation standards across different abundant questionable entries, limited annotation. To address...
Chlorogenic acid (CA), a natural polyphenolic antioxidant, is used in meat products to prevent spoilage due oxidation. Transglutaminase (TGase) an effective protein cross-linking agent applied gel increase the elasticity of gel. The present study illustrated effect CA at various additions (5, 20, and 100 μmol/g protein) and/or TGase (0.2 g/100g on physicochemical characteristics myofibrillar (MP). Texture rheological results demonstrated that improved structures oxidized MP treated with (5...
Gymnemic acid (GA) isolated from Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) Schult. has been shown to have antihyperglycemic activity; however, the molecular mechanisms governing these effects are unclear. In this study, GA (40 and 80 mg kg–1 day–1) was evaluated by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats explore its hypoglycemic activity underlying of action. The results indicated that decreased fasting blood glucose (FBG) concentrations 26.7% lowered insulin 16.1% after oral administration at a dose day–1 for...
Plants possess unique primary cell walls made of complex polysaccharides that play critical roles in determining intrinsic and organ size. How genes responsible for synthesizing modifying the wall are regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs) to control plant size remains largely unexplored. Here we identified 23 putative wall-related miRNAs, termed as CW-miRNAs, Arabidopsis thaliana characterized miR775 an example. We showed post-transcriptionally silences GALT9, which encodes endomembrane-located...
Electrothermal de-icing systems are highly reliable and controllable, offering significant potential for aircraft light-weighting low-energy flight. In order to achieve rapid de-icing, it is important design the energy distribution system of rationally. this paper, an optimization method electrothermal established based on genetic algorithms. Heating elements placed at leading edge aircraft, with total power density range each heating element as constraints. The shortest time phase...
Gymnemic acid (GA) is an herbal ingredient that can improve glucose metabolism in patients with diabetes mellitus. In this study, we evaluated the ameliorative effects of GA on insulin resistance (IR) and identified mechanisms type 2 mellitus (T2DM) rats IR HepG2 cells. effectively enhanced uptake cells from 11.9 ± 1.09 to 14.7 1.38 mmol/L lowered fasting blood (blood levels groups treated at 40 80 mg/kg/day were reduced by 15.2% 26.7%, respectively) oral tolerance. Both vivo vitro,...
Abstract Introduction – Sinigrin, a major glucosinolate present in Indian mustard ( Brassica juncea L.) seeds as the precursor of anticancer compound allyl isothiocyanate, shows wide range biological activities. It's necessary to optimize extraction methods and conditions, order improve productivity save raw material. Objective To systemically investigate most important factors affected sinigrin process using response surface methodology. Methodology The ranges three main including ethanol...
We proposed a systematic strategy based on the studies about adsorption performance of AB-8 macroporous resins for prediction equilibrium time in taxifolin isolation. Batch experiments were appropriately designed to obtain best fitting model and gain insight into mechanisms. A modified Langmuir was used calculate capacity at point (Qe). Subsequently, reformed pseudo-second-order employed predict effects second-order rate index (k2Qe) (t). Then, initial factor (Ri) relative (t/te) predicted...
In California and other agricultural regions that are facing challenges with water scarcity, accurate estimates of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) can support entities in ongoing efforts to improve on-farm use efficiency. Remote sensing approaches for calculating ETc be used wide area mapping coefficients the goal increasing access spatially temporally distributed information these variables, advancing (ET) data irrigation scheduling management. We briefly review past work on derivation from...
A novel formal cross-coupling of aryl methyl sulfones and alcohols affording alkyl ethers via an SRN1 pathway is developed. Two marketed antitubercular drugs were efficiently prepared employing this approach as the key step. dimsyl-anion initiated radical chain process was revealed major pathway. DFT calculations indicate that formation a anion nucleophilic addition alkoxide to step in determining observed chemoselectivity.
Abstract BACKGROUND: Most enzymes, including protease, play a key role in biotechnology, but their use is quite limited due to poor recovery, reusability and instability. Immobilized enzymes offer advantages over free enzymes. This paper reports simple method for the preparation of immobilized papain, an endolytic cysteine protease (EC: 3.4.22.2), on carboxyl‐activated silica nanoparticles. RESULTS: The carriers produced reactive carboxyl groups which then react with amino enzyme give...
