Seed vigour is an imperative trait for the direct seeding of rice. Isopropylmalate synthase (IPMS) catalyses committed step leucine (Leu) biosynthesis, but its effect on seed remains unclear. In this study, rice OsIPMS1 and OsIPMS2 was cloned, roles in were mainly investigated. catalyse Leu feedback inhibits their IPMS activities. Disruption resulted low under various conditions, which might be tightly associated with reduction amino acids germinating seeds. Eleven that stress tolerance, GA...
Mature 'Hamlin' sweet oranges (Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck) were irradiated using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and ultraviolet (UV) light for six days after harvest. Based on evaluation of the basic ripening parameters fruits, contents soluble sugars, organic acids, carotenoids analyzed (in pulps) sixth day by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The results showed that LED UV irradiation not only accelerated orange but also caused significant changes in sugar, acid, carotenoid...
Peaches are easily perishable fruit, and their quality is quickly lost after harvest. In this study, "Hujingmilu" peach (Prunus persica L.) fruit was treated with citric acid (CA) stored at 20°C for 15 days. Fruit decay were evaluated during the storage period. Compared control, CA treatment did not inhibit climacteric ethylene release, but significantly effective maintaining firmness, inhibiting decay, preventing a decrease in titration (TA). inhibited increase total soluble solids (TSS),...
To find out whether dietary amylose/ amylopectin ratio (DAR) could attenuate injury in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-challenged piglets, sixty male weaned piglets (Duroc × Landrace Yorkshire, 21 days old, 6.51 ± 0.64 kg) were allotted to 5 treatments with 12 cages per treatment, and fed ad libitum diets different DAR (0.00, 0.20, 0.40, 0.60 0.80). Feed transformation occurred from D15 D21. On day 28, h before slaughter, pigs intraperitoneal injected 100 μg/kg body weight LPS or sterile saline....
This study investigated the fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) on growth performance and meat quality in broilers. Total 160 Xianghuang broilers aged 2 months were randomly assigned into groups, CON (control), FOS (supplemented 0.5% diet). After 38 days, breast, thigh muscle liver samples collected for further analysis. Results showed that no significant effect of such as average daily gain (ADG), feed intake (ADFI) or feed-to-gain ratio (F:G) observed (P > 0.05). Broilers group had a yellower...
The traditional Chinese recipe "Erjing Formula", composed of HuangJing and GouQi, is recognized for its tonifying revitalizing properties, but the active components responsible these effects are poorly explored. This study investigated antifatigue Erjing Formula polysaccharides (EJFP). Mice were treated with EJFP subjected to weight-loaded swimming tests. Biochemicals measured, while muscle changes analyzed by H&E staining protein expression Western blotting. present aimed investigate...
This study investigated the effect of a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plant powder made from an equal proportion Sarcococca ruscifolia Stapf, Hedera nepalensis var. sinensis (Tobl.) Rehd, and Clematis chinensis Osbeck on growth performance intestinal health in Xianghuang chickens, focusing histomorphology, antioxidant activity, anti-inflammation function. A total 100 10-day-old male chickens were randomly assigned to two groups, with five replicate cages per group containing 10 birds...
In order to determine the effect of different oligosaccharides on growth performance, intestinal health, and antioxidant status broilers, 240 1-day-old XiangHuang broilers were randomly distributed 4 treatments with 6 replicates each. Birds fed corn-soybean-based diets (CON), birds in xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS), fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), iso-maltooligosaccharide (IMO) groups given basal diet supplemented 200 mg/kg XOS, FOS, IMO, respectively. Result showed that average daily gain (ADG)...
Abstract Light, a crucial environmental signal, is involved in the regulation of secondary metabolites. To understand mechanism by which light influences carotenoid metabolism, grapefruits were bagged with four types light-transmitting bags that altered transmission solar light. We show bagging induced changes metabolism during fruit ripening. Compared natural light, red (RL)-transmittance treatment significantly increases total content 62%. Based on weighted gene co-expression network...
Peptidoglycan (PGN), as the major components of bacterial cell wall, is known to cause excessive proinflammatory cytokine production. Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) abundantly expressed on immune cells and has been shown be involved in PGN-induced signaling. Although more evidences have indicated that PGN recognized by TLR2, role TLR2 recognition controversial. Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), a plasma C-type lectin, plays key innate immunity. More show MBL could suppress amplification inflammatory...
Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effects of fermented tofu processing wastewater (FTPW) on growth performance and meat quality Xianghuang broilers. A total 160 six‐week‐old broilers were randomly assigned control or FTPW groups with eight replicate pens 10 birds each pen. Broilers received same corn‐soybean diet but different water. ordinary water in group 40% (volume: volume) (the solution has been filtered four layers sieve, containing Bacillus 1.52 × −7 CFU/mL) group. The...
Dietary amylose/amylopectin ratio (DAR) plays an important role in piglets' intestinal health. It is controversial whether diarrhea could be relieved by changing DAR weaning piglets.Sixty (Landrace × Yorkshire) castrated male pigs (initial body weight (BW) 6.51 ± 0.64 kg) were randomly allocated to five groups (one pig per cage and 12 replicates group) according their BW. Piglets received diets with different DARs (0.00, 0.20, 0.40, 0.60, 0.80) for 29 days. Feed transition occurs at day 15....
Summary This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary amylose/amylopectin ratio ( DAR ) on serum and hepatic lipid content, luminal short‐chain fatty acid SCFA concentrations, expression host genes involved in fat glucose metabolism liver mucosa growing‐finishing pigs. Forty‐eight Duroc × Landrace Large White pigs (49.8 ± 2.8 kg) were randomly allocated low LR high HR groups, each group consisting six replicates (pen) with four per pen. The 12/88 for 30/70 . Experiment...
High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) is a molecule related to the development of inflammation. Autophagy vital maintain cellular homeostasis and protect against inflammation adipocyte injury. Our recent work focused on relationship HMGB1 autophagy in 3T3-L1 cells. In vivo experimental results showed that, compared with normal-diet group, high-fat diet mice displayed an increase size epididymal adipose tissues. The expression levels LC3II also increased tissues mice. vitro indicated that...
Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAD-MSCs) are with the capability to modulate immune responses. Evidence showing that hAD-MSCs could mediate innate responses through pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) is increasing. However, roles of PRRs in regulating sensing virus nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) have not yet been investigated. This study focused on abundant expression PRRs, including Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I), which recognize viral RNA,...
Short-chain esters derived from fatty acid contribute to the characteristic flavor of apricot fruit, and biosynthesis these compounds in fruit is catalyzed by alcohol acyltransferase (AAT). In this work, we investigated AAT gene family via genome-wide scanning, three loci were identified different linkage groups (LGs), with PaAAT1 (PARG22907m01) LG7, PaAAT2 (PARG15279m01) LG4, PaAAT3 (PARG22697m01) LG6. Phylogenetic analysis showed that belongs clade 3, while belong 1 2, respectively....
