Structural variations of lignin and lignin-carbohydrate complexes from the fruit shells of Camellia oleifera during ripening
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Sep 16:126946. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126946. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCamellia oleifera fruit shell (CFS), a waste lignocellulosic biomass resulting from Camellia oleifera oil production industry, is abundantly available in Southern China. Herein, to understand the structural variations of CFS lignins and lignin-carbohydrate complexes (LCC) during ripening, the native lignin and LCC fractions from CFS (harvested every seven days from October 1 to 30, 2022) were isolated and characterized systematically. The molecular weights of both MWL and DEL fractions steadily increased during ripen...

Trade liberalization and nutrition transition: Evidence from China
Econ Hum Biol. 2023 Sep 9;51:101304. doi: 10.1016/j.ehb.2023.101304. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe examine the impact of trade liberalization on the nutrition transition between 1997 and 2011. Our findings demonstrate that the reduction in tariff rates has had a significant effect on the dietary patterns of both rural and urban residents in the country. With the decrease in tariffs, there has been a noticeable increase in the consumption of animal products (such as meat and aquatic products), vegetables, beans and nuts, as well as packaged and processed foods. Simultaneously, there has been a decrease in the demand for ...

Identification strategy of Fructus Gardeniae and its adulterant based on UHPLC/Q-orbitrap-MS and UHPLC-QTRAP-MS/MS combined with PLS regression model
Talanta. 2023 Sep 3;267:125136. doi: 10.1016/j.talanta.2023.125136. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFructus Gardeniae (FG) is the desiccative and ripe fruits of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis in the Rubiaceae family, which is a commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for clearing away heat, detoxification, relieving restlessness, and eliminating blood stasis. At the same time, it has also been announced as the first batch of TCM with homology of medicine and food. Fructus Gardeniae Grandiflorae (FGG), the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis var. grandiflora Nakai (Rubiaceae), is a common counterfeit herbal medicine o...

Opportunities and challenges for ribosome-inactivating proteins in traditional Chinese medicine plants
Toxicon. 2023 Sep 6:107278. doi: 10.1016/j.toxicon.2023.107278. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRibosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a class of cytotoxic rRNA N-glycosylase, which widely exist in higher plants in different taxonomy, including many traditional Chinese medicinal materials and vegetables and fruits. In this paper, the traditional Chinese medicinal plants containing RIPs protein were sorted out, and their pharmacological effects and clinical applications were analyzed. Since many RIPs in traditional Chinese medicine plants exhibit antiviral and antitumor activities and show great clinical application potent...

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Ameliorates Allergic Inflammation in HMC-1 Cells by Inactivating NF- κB and MAPK Signaling Pathways
Biochem Genet. 2023 Aug 30. doi: 10.1007/s10528-023-10492-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAllergic inflammation is the foundation of multiple allergic disorders, such as allergic rhinitis and asthma. Mast cells are effector cells that initiate inflammatory response. 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), a furfural compound, is the heat-processed product of various fruit, foods, drinks, as well as some Chinese herbal medicines. 5-HMF was previously reported to inhibit mast cell activation. Our study aimed to explore the functions of 5-HMF in both phorbol 12-mystate 13-acetate (PMA) plus calcium ionophore (A23187)-induced allerg...

Isolation, Characterization, and Genomic Analysis of Multidrug-Resistant Rahnella aquatilis from Fruits in China
In this study, we aimed to analyze contamination in fruits and characterize antibiotic resistance genes in pathogenic microorganisms isolated from fruits. Sixty fruit samples were collected and screened for pathogenic microorganisms. The strains were identified, and the minimum inhibitory concentration for various antibiotics was determined. Antibiotic-resistant strains were analyzed by whole-genome sequencing. We isolated strain L46 from lemon samples and identified it as Rahnella aquatilis using MALDI-TOF MS and 16S rRNA sequencing. The whole genome of R. aquatilis L46 was 4.94 Mb and contained 291 putative antibiotic re...

Old but still good: genetic diversity of ancient pecan genotypes from southern Brazil
In this study, AFLP and S-SAP markers were employed to characterize the genetic diversity of ancient accessions of pecan from southern Brazil. The evaluated plants were selected and preserved by the farmers and are remnants of the first introduction of seedlings from the U.S.A into southern Brazil aiming at developing research towards establishing commercial orchards. High levels of genetic diversity were estimated, suggesting that these plants have an important genetic background for the establishment of a germplasm collection with a wide genetic basis, for the development of breeding programs for this fruit crop. Cluster...
