Comparative Phylogenetic Analysis of Ancient Korean Tea "Hadong Cheon-Nyeon Cha ( < em > Camellia sinensis < /em > var. < em > sinensis < /em > )" Using Complete Chloroplast Genome Sequences
This study determined seven Camellia sinensis var. sinenesis, including Hadong Cheon-nyeon Cha (HCNC) chloroplast genome sequences, using Illumina sequencing technology via de novo assembly. The chloroplast genome sizes ranged from 157,019 to 157,114 bp and were organized into quadripartite regions with the typical chloroplast genomes. Further, differences in SNPs and InDels were detected across the seven chloroplast genomes through variance analysis. Principal component and phylogenetic analysis suggested that regional constraints, rather than functional constraints, strongly affected the sequence evolution of the cp geno...

The present study reports the case of a 40-year-old female patient with severe epigastric pain, initially suspected to be a liver lesion, who was admitted to The Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University (Zunyi, China). A combination of diagnostic procedures, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, revealed an abnormality in the left hepatic lobe.

Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Camellia sinensis Leaf Extract: Promising Particles for the Treatment of Cancer and Diabetes
Chem Biodivers. 2024 Feb 15:e202301661. doi: 10.1002/cbdv.202301661. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBoth diabetes and cancer pose significant threats to public health. To overcome these challenges, nanobiotechnology offers innovative solutions for the treatment of these diseases. However, the synthesis of nanoparticles can be complex, costly and environmentally toxic. Therefore, in this study, we successfully synthesized Camellia sinensis silver nanoparticles (CS-AgNPs) biologically from methanolic leaf extract of C. sinensis and as confirmed by the visual appearance which exhibited strong absorption at 456 nm in UV-visible...

< i > Clonorchis sinensis < /i > infection amplifies hepatocellular carcinoma stemness, predicting unfavorable prognosis
This study was designed to investigate the association betweenC.sinensis infection and HCC and reveal the relationship betweenC.sinensis infection and cancer stemness. MethodsA comprehensive analysis of 839 HCC patients categorized intoC.sinensis (-) HCC andC.sinensis (+) HCC groups was conducted. Chi-square and Mann –Whitney U tests were used to assess the association betweenC.sinensis infection and clinical factors. Kaplan –Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate survival outcomes. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine CK19 and EpCAM expression in HCC specimens. ResultsCompared toC.sinensis (-) H...

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 474: Changes in the Antioxidant Potential of Camellia sinensis Cultures under the Influence of Phenolic Precursors
ia V. Zagoskina The viability, productivity and survival of higher plants under the adverse factors influence are largely determined by the functional activity of the antioxidant system. The aim of our work was to investigate changes in formation of high-molecular (superoxide dismutase and peroxidase) and low-molecular (phenolics, including flavanols and proanthocyanidins) antioxidants in callus culture of Camellia sinensis under influence of phenolic precursors (L-phenylalanine&amp;mdash;3 mM, trans-cinnamic acid&amp;mdash;1 mM, naringenin&amp;mdash;0.5 mM). According to the data obtained, the effect of pr...
