Abstract The antifungal activity, kinetics and molecular mechanism of action garlic oil against Candida albicans were investigated in this study using multiple methods. Using the poisoned food technique, we determined that minimum inhibitory concentration was 0.35 μg/mL. Observation by transmission electron microscopy indicated could penetrate cellular membrane C. as well membranes organelles such mitochondria, resulting organelle destruction ultimately cell death. RNA sequencing analysis...
Litsea cubeba oil is extracted from the fresh fruits of by distillation. In this study, its chemical constituents, antibacterial activity, kinetics and effects against Escherichia coli were studied. Its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) bactericidal (MBC) both 0.125% (v/v) toxic food method. Moreover, kinetic curves indicated 0.0625% litsea was able to prolong growth lag phase E. cells approximate 12 hours while kill completely. Furthermore, transmission electron microscope (TEM)...
Tolerance to chemical insecticides can be driven by the necessity of herbivorous insects defend against host plant-produced phytochemicals. However, how phytochemicals are sensed and further transduced into a defense response associated with insecticide tolerance is poorly understood. Herein, we show that pre-exposure flavone, flavonoid phytochemical, effectively enhanced larval multiple synthetic elevated detoxification enzyme activities in Spodoptera litura. RNA-Seq analysis revealed...
Background: Given the limitations of traditional pharmacology pedagogical method, diverse novel teaching methods have been widely explored. In this study, we performed a network meta-analysis (NMA) to evaluate effects different strategies in education. Methods: Literature databases were searched from their inception November 2022, and studies screened according predefined inclusion exclusion criteria extract important information. Outcomes, including theoretical test scores, experimental...
Adaptation to phytochemicals in herbivorous insects can influence tolerance insecticides. However, it is unclear how use as cues activate their metabolic detoxification systems. In this study, we found that dietary exposure xanthotoxin enhanced of Spodoptera litura larvae λ-cyhalothrin. Xanthotoxin ingestion significantly elevated the mRNA levels 35 genes well transcription factors Cap 'n' collar isoform-C (CncC) and its binding factor small muscle aponeurosis fibromatosis isoform-K (MafK)....
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen that can cause severe respiratory tract infections. Geraniol, chemical component of essential oils, has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory activities, along with low toxicity. However, the effect mechanism geraniol against P. virulence factors are rarely studied. In this study, we investigated quorum sensing (QS) inhibitory effects mechanisms PAO1, using physiological biochemical techniques, quantitative reverse transcription...
In this study, the roles of kiwifruit soluble/insoluble dietary fiber (SDF/IDF, respectively) in pasting characteristics and vitro digestibility wheat starch were explored. According to RVA rheological tests, IDF enhanced viscosity, decreased gelatinization degree granules, exacerbated retrogradation. The addition SDF high quantities could reduce level, lower system exacerbate Through determining leached amylose content conducing scanning electron microscopy, added was combined with wrapped...
Previously, we determined that diallyl disulfide (DADS) from garlic oil can inhibit Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 pathogenic factors by inactivating the transcription of key genes three quorum sensing (QS) systems (las, rhl, and pqs) based on effects DADS growth, virulence factor production (elastase, pyocyanin, biofilm, swarming motility), RNA (real-time q-PCR). To further investigate mechanisms underlying inhibition P. QS DADS, high-throughput proteome sequencing techniques were used to...
Provisioning of sufficient lipids and vitellogenin to the oocytes is an indispensable process for fecundity oviparous insects. Acute mobilization lipid reserves in insects controlled by Brummer (Bmm), orthologous human adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL). To investigate functional roles brummer-mediated lipolysis brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens. RNA interference (RNAi) analyses were performed with double-stranded (dsRNA) against NlBmm adult females. Knockdown expression resulted obesity...
