This research combined ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) and natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) to recover phenolic flavonoid components from mangosteen rind. The antioxidant activities were determined using DPPH, ABTS+, hydroxyl assays. NADES prepared lactic 1,2-propanediol had the highest efficiency based on total content (TFC) contents (TPC). Single-factor experiments employed assess influence of UAE conditions (liquid-to-solid ratio, temperature, water in NADES, time) TFC, TPC,...
Background: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of stillbirth and neonatal death. Since the publication A Randomized Trial Induction Versus Expectant Management (ARRIVE) in 2018, there was increase 39 weeks deliveries. The objective this study to evaluate trends perinatal mortality by BMI category from 2015 2020. Study Design: This a retrospective cohort US births between rates stillbirths, infant deaths, were calculated for each category. Logistic regression models constructed...
Rice ( Oryza sativa ) plants expressing the XA21 cell-surface receptor kinase are resistant to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. (Xoo) infection. We previously demonstrated that a chimeric protein containing ELONGATION FACTOR Tu RECEPTOR (EFR) ectodomain and endodomain (EFR:XA21) in rice does not confer robust resistance Xoo . To test if is required for resistance, we produced transgenic lines consisting of EFR (XA21:EFR) inoculated these with also tested XA21:EFR respond synthetic sulfated 21 amino...
The rice XA21 receptor kinase confers robust resistance to the bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. ( Xoo ). We developed a detached leaf infection assay quickly and reliably measure activation of XA21-mediated immune response using genetic markers. used RNA sequencing elf18 treated EFR:XA21:GFP plants identify candidate genes that could serve as markers for activation. From this analysis, we identified eight are up-regulated in both leaves infected leaves. These results provide rapid...
Airway remodeling is strongly correlated with the progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this study, our goal was to characterize progressive structural changes in site-specific airways, along temporal and spatial expression transforming growth factor (TGF)-β lungs male spontaneously hypertensive rats exposed tobacco smoke (TS). Our studies demonstrated that TS-induced airways dependent on airway generation exposure duration for proximal, midlevel, distal airways....
Previous studies in hibernating species have characterized two forms of neural plasticity the hippocampus, long-term potentiation (LTP) and its reversal, depotentiation, but not de novo depression (LTD), which is also associated with memory formation. Studies shown that histamine injected into hippocampus prolonged hibernation bout duration. However, spillover ventricles may affected brain stem regions, hippocampus. Here, we tested hypothesis decreased temperature shifts major function...
One species of Piscirickettsia, a pathogen salmonid fish, has been described. The genome sequence putative second and free-living may provide insights into the evolution pathogenicity in genus.
Patients with suspected placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) disorder are often referred to specialized medical centers for antepartum management and definitive treatment via cesarean hysterectomy. In 2019, our institution formed the only multidisciplinary team of PAS within two largest counties in California. The purpose this study was evaluate effects on patient volume surgical outcomes patients PAS.This a single center retrospective cohort study, based tertiary referral who underwent...
INTRODUCTION: Patients with suspected placental accreta spectrum (PAS) are recommended to be referred specialized centers for antepartum management and cesarean hysterectomy. Previously, it was shown that multidisciplinary approach could improve outcomes, but evidence on referral volume antenatal diagnostic accuracy were sparse. Our goal is evaluate the impact of a team volume, accuracy, surgical outcomes. METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study, based in only...
Prospero related homeobox 1 (Prox1) transcription factor is important for the development of several organs, including heart, liver and lymphatic vessels. Prox1 gene polymorphisms have recently been to insulin resistance. We show here that expressed in adult slow skeletal muscle fibers satellite cells, both rodents humans. expression increased during mouse C2C12 cell differentiation primary human myoblast into myotubes, its silencing leads failure differentiation. Mechanistically, activates...
Maternal obesity has risen in the United States recent decades.This study aimed to evaluate impact of maternal on risk for spontaneous preterm delivery and overall among patients with cervical cerclage placement.This was a retrospective which data from California Office Statewide Health Planning Development linked birth file 2007 2012 were used, yielding total 3654 2,804,671 without placement. Exclusion criteria included missing information body mass index, multiple gestation, anomalous...
INTRODUCTION: Pregnant patients who have received solid organ transplantations face high morbidity and mortality. Risks of preeclampsia preterm delivery were previously observed, but data on gestational diabetes, maternal neonatal ICU admissions sparse. Most regarding outcomes been derived from the transplantation registry single-center retrospective studies. METHODS: This was a study using California Office Statewide Health Planning Development Linked Birth File. Exposure defined as history...
