ObjectivesThe antifungal activity of curcumin was evaluated against 23 fungi strains and its in vitro inhibitory effect on the adhesion Candida species to human buccal epithelial cells (BEC) also investigated.
The origin of nitric oxide ( . NO) in plants is unclear and an NO synthase (NOS)‐like enzyme nitrate reductase (NR) are claimed as potential sources. Here we used wild‐type NR‐defective double mutant to investigate production Arabidopsis thaliana response Pseudomonas syringae pv maculicola. NOS activity increased substantially leaves inoculated with P. However, electron paramagnetic resonance experiments showed a much higher formation that was dependent on nitrite mitochondrial transport...
Abstract Saponins, an important group of bioactive plant natural products, are glycosides triterpenoid or steroidal aglycones (sapogenins). Saponins possess many biological activities, including conferring potential health benefits for humans. However, most the steps specific biosynthesis triterpene saponins remain uncharacterized at molecular level. Here, we use comprehensive gene expression clustering analysis to identify candidate genes involved in elaboration, hydroxylation, and...
MYB transcription factors help to control anthocyanin biosynthesis in plants, and ectopic expression of the Arabidopsis Production Anthocyanin Pigment 1 (PAP1) factor activates pathway tobacco, suggesting general utility such for metabolic engineering anthocyanins anthocyanin-derived compounds as proanthocyanidins (condensed tannins). However, PAP1 does not activate model legume Medicago truncatula or alfalfa (Medicago sativa). A related Legume (LAP1) gene was identified from genome M....
Abstract Phytoalexin biosynthesis is part of the defense mechanism soybean (Glycine max) plants against attack by fungus Diaporthe phaseolorum f. sp.meridionalis (Dpm), causal agent stem canker disease. The treatment cotyledons with Dpm elicitor or sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a nitric oxide (NO) donor, resulted in high accumulation phytoalexins. This response did not occur when SNP was replaced ferricyanide, structural analog devoid NO moiety. induced fungal elicitor, but SNP, prevented were...
High salinity affects plants due to stimulation of osmotic stress. Cell signaling triggered by nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) activates a cascade biochemical events that culminate in plant tolerance abiotic biotic stresses. For instance, the NO/H2S-stimulated occur during response high include control reactive oxygen species, activation antioxidant system, accumulation osmoprotectants cytosol, induction K+ uptake Na+ cell extrusion or its vacuolar compartmentation among others....
Coffee is a popular beverage owing to its unique flavor and diverse health benefits. The current study aimed at investigating the antioxidant activity, in relation phytochemical composition, of authenticated Brazilian green roasted Coffea arabica C. robusta, along with 15 commercial specimens collected from Middle East. Ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI–HRMS) UV were employed for profiling fingerprinting, respectively. With aid...
A series of Biginelli adducts bearing different substituents at C-4 position were synthesized by using p-sulfonic acid calix[4]arene as a catalyst. The in vitro potential to scavenge reactive nitrogen/oxygen species (RNS and ROS) the ability inhibit cancer cells growth then investigated. Four found be potent scavengers 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (RNS) and/or superoxide anion (ROS) radicals. antiproliferative activity against was disclosed for first time 16 monastrol analogs. capacity all...
