Making lemonade with lemons: a multicenter effort to improve outpatient sleeve gastrectomy amid the COVID-19 pandemic
CONCLUSION: Outpatient sleeve gastrectomy is safe and efficacious. Administrative support for extended postanesthesia care unit recovery was critical to successful protocol implementation for outpatient sleeve gastrectomy within this large multicenter healthcare system, demonstrating potential applicability nationwide.PMID:36872160 | PMC:PMC9896885 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2023.01.022 (Source: Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery)

Viruses, Vol. 15, Pages 682: Effects of Essential Oils and Hydrolates on the Infectivity of Murine Norovirus
In this study, we evaluated the virucidal effect of Citrus limon and Thymus serpyllum essential oils (EOs) and of Citrus Limon, Thymus serpyllum and Thymus vulgaris hydrolates on murine norovirus (MNV), a human norovirus surrogate. To assess the virucidal effect of these natural substances, the reduction in viral infectivity was estimated by comparing the TCID50/mL of untreated viral suspension and the viral suspension treated with hydrolates and EOs at different concentrations. The results showed a natural loss of infectivity of the untreated virus after 24 h of approx. 1 log. The EO (1%) of T. serpyllum, and hydrolates (...

Identification of citrus APX gene family and their response to CYVCV infection
In this study, seven CsAPXs gene family members were identified based on the sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) genome and subjected to evolutionary and structural analysis using bioinformatics software. The APX genes of lemon (ClAPXs) were cloned and showed a high conservation to CsAPXs by sequences alignment. In citrus yellow vein clearing virus (CYVCV)-infected Eureka lemons (C. limon) at 30th day post inoculation, APX activity and accumulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde were measured to be 3.63, 2.29, and 1.73 times to that of the healthy control. The expression levels of 7 ClAPX genes in different per...

Mechanisms of airway disease development following inhalation exposure to indoor fungal contaminants Stachybotrys chartarum and Aspergillus versicolor
Fungi are found ubiquitously in the environment and chronic repeated exposures have been associated with pulmonary and cognitive effects in humans. Previous studies have shown that two prominent indoor fungal contaminants, Stachybotrys chartarum and Aspergillus versicolor, are associated with allergic airway disease, airway remodeling, and Th2-mediated immunological effects. To understand the mechanisms of disease development, genetically modified murine models are an invaluable tool. (Source: Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology)

Proteomic evaluation of spore and hyphae proteomes of Alternaria alternata
Alternaria alternata is associated with allergic diseases, which can be managed with allergen extract-based diagnostics and immunotherapy. The contributions of asexual spores and vegetative hyphae to patient allergen reactivity are uncertain, and commercial extracts are manufactured by unselective extraction without separating these components. Immunotherapy and diagnosis with existing products, while safe and effective, could be improved by better characterization. (Source: Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology)

Narirutin. A flavonoid found in citrus fruits modulates cell cycle phases and inhibits the proliferation of hormone-refractory prostate cancer cells by targeting hyaluronidase
Food Chem Toxicol. 2023 Jan 25:113638. doi: 10.1016/j.fct.2023.113638. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNarirutin is a dietary flavanone found in lemons, oranges, passion fruit, bergamot and grapefruit. It possesses anti-allergic, cardioprotective, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective potential, and its enriched fraction suppresses the growth of prostate cancer cells; however, there is currently no information on the chemopreventive potential of narirutin alone against hormone-refractory prostate cancer cells (PC-3) and its mode of action. Thus, the chemopreventive possibility of narirutin was investigated in PC-3 cells by utili...

A Comparative Study on Fungal Diversity in Organic and Conventionally Cultivated Lemons During Accelerated Storage
Curr Microbiol. 2023 Jan 7;80(2):69. doi: 10.1007/s00284-022-03164-1.ABSTRACTThere has been a growing interest in organic farming as a countermeasure to the environmental burden caused by chemical pesticides. We analyzed and compared the fungal diversity of lemon fruits from organic and conventional cultivation by automated rRNA intergenic spacer analysis (ARISA), accompanied by isolation of cultured colonies and metagenomic analysis. Lemon peels were cut out and subjected to the analyses at purchase and after accelerated storage at 28 °C. The organic lemons did not decay even after 14 weeks, while most of the conventiona...
