Satiety and other core physiological functions are modulated by sensory signals arising from the surface of gut. Luminal nutrients bacteria stimulate epithelial biosensors called enteroendocrine cells. Despite being electrically excitable, cells generally thought to communicate indirectly with nerves through hormone secretion not direct cell-nerve contact. However, we recently uncovered in intestinal a cytoplasmic process that named neuropod. Here, determined neuropods provide connection...

Polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) and hydroxylated polymethoxyflavones exist exclusively in citrus genus, especially the peels which have been used as herbal medicine for several diseases thousands of years. In this review, natural occurrence, isolation separation PMFs; synthetic scheme PMF preparation, reaction mechanism preparation 5-hydroxylated biotransformation metabolic fate preliminary study on bioavailability close relationship among solubility, permeability, absorption oral are summarized....

Single-minded 1 (Sim1) encodes a transcription factor essential for formation of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). Sim1 haploinsufficiency is associated with hyperphagic obesity and increased linear growth in humans mice, similar to phenotype melanocortin 4 receptor (Mc4r) mutations. PVN neurons Sim1(+/-) mice are hyporesponsive agonist melanotan II. neuropeptides oxytocin (Oxt), TRH CRH inhibit feeding when administered centrally. Consequently, we hypothesized that altered...

Tanshinones, one group of bioactive diterpenes, were widely used in the treatment cardiovascular diseases. WRKYs play important roles plant metabolism, but their regulation mechanism S. miltiorrhiza remains elusive. In this study, WRKY transcription factor SmWRKY1 was isolated and characterized from miltiorrhiza. Multiple sequence alignment phylogenetic tree analysis showed shared high homology with other such as CrWRKY1. predominantly expressed leaves stems, responsive to salicylic acid...

Tangeretin, 4',5,6,7,8-pentamethoxyflavone, is one of the major polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) existing in citrus fruits, particularly peels sweet oranges and mandarins. Tangeretin has been reported to possess several beneficial bioactivities including anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative neuroprotective effects. To achieve a thorough understanding biological actions tangeretin vivo, our current study designed investigate pharmacokinetics, bioavailability, distribution excretion rats. After...

In order to fully elucidate the roles and systems of phytohormones in UV-B radiation (UV-B) leaves Rhododendron chrysanthum Pall. (R. chrysanthum), we conducted a comprehensive analysis how R. protects itself against using transcriptomic metabolomic data. Transcript metabolite profiles were generated by combination deep sequencing LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry), respectively. Combined with physiological biochemical assays, studied compound accumulation,...

Measurement of soil carbon (C) is important for determining the effects Everglades restoration projects on C cycling and transformations. Accurate measurement organic by automated carbon–nitrogen–sulfur (CNS) analysis may be confounded presence calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in wetlands. The objectives this study were to compare a loss‐on‐ignition (LOI) method with CNS assessment across diverse group calcareous More than 3168 samples taken from three depths (floc, 0–10, 10–30 cm) 14 wetlands...

We have designed a new type of tumor-targeted agent by tethering two different drug molecules, with distinct biological mechanisms action, to the same ligand. This compound, named EC0225, represents "first in class" multidrug, folate receptor (FR)-targeted be disclosed. It was constructed single molecule, extended hydrophilic peptide-based spacer, which turn attached mitomycin and Vinca alkaloid units via separate disulfide-containing linkers. EC0225 produced potent, dose-responsive activity...

In field conditions, especially in arid and semi-arid areas, tea plants are often simultaneously exposed to various abiotic stresses such as cold drought, which have profound effects on leaf senescence process quality. However, most studies of gene expression stress responses focus a single inciting agent, the confounding effect multiple crop quality remain unearthed. Here, global transcriptome profiles leaves under separately drought were compared with their combination using RNA-Seq...

Pioneering investigations referring to citrus flavor have been intensively conducted. However, the characteristic difference between sweet orange and mandarin has not defined. In this study, sensory analysis illustrated crucial role of aroma in differentiation flavor. To study aroma, Valencia LB8-9 were used. Their most aroma-active compounds preliminarily identified by extract dilution (AEDA). Quantitation key volatiles followed calculation odor activity values (OAVs) further detected...
