Effects of preheat treatment and syringic acid binding on the physicochemical, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties of black soybean protein isolate before and after in vitro digestion.

This study investigated the effects of preheat treatment (70-100 °C) and syringic acid (SA) grafting on the antioxidant, antibacterial, and physicochemical properties of black soybean protein isolate (BSPI) before and after in vitro digestion. The results revealed that both preheat treatment and SA grafting increased the digestibility and the absolute zeta potential value of BSPI. However, as the preheating temperature increased, the antioxidant ability of BSPI decreased, which was improved by SA grafting.

Effects of preheat treatment and syringic acid modification on the structure, functional properties, and stability of black soybean protein isolate.

This study investigated preheated (25-100°C) black soybean protein isolate (BSPI) conjugated with syringic acid (SA) (25 and 50 µmol/g protein) under alkaline conditions, focusing on the structure, functional properties, and storage stability. The results revealed that the SA binding equivalent and binding rate on BSPI increased continuously as the preheat temperature increased. Additionally, preheating positively impacted the surface hydrophobicity (H) of BSPI, with further enhancement observed upon SA binding.

miR-4443 targets TRIM14 to suppress metastasis and energy metabolism of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in vitro.

Tripartite motif-containing protein 14 (TRIM14) is a tumor-promoter in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). We found that miR-4443 expression was significantly downregulated in PTC tumor tissue, and was negatively associated with TRIM14. This study was designed to investigate the relationship between miR-4443 and TRIM14 on metastasis and energy metabolism in PTC and the underlying mechanisms.

[Effect of repeated horizontal acceleration exposure on cardiac structure in New Zealand rabbits].

To observe the effects of repeated horizontal -Gx acceleration exposure on cardiac structure in New Zealand rabbits. Twenty New Zealand rabbits were divided into 2 groups (=10): control group and -Gx acceleration exposure group. The rabbits in -Gx acceleration exposure group were exposed to -3.

Transcriptome Analysis of Beta macrocarpa and Identification of Differentially Expressed Transcripts in Response to Beet Necrotic Yellow Vein Virus Infection.

Background: Rhizomania is one of the most devastating diseases of sugar beet. It is caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) transmitted by the obligate root-infecting parasite Polymyxa betae. Beta macrocarpa, a wild beet species widely used as a systemic host in the laboratory, can be rub-inoculated with BNYVV to avoid variation associated with the presence of the vector P.

Deep sequencing-based transcriptome profiling reveals comprehensive insights into the responses of Nicotiana benthamiana to beet necrotic yellow vein virus infections containing or lacking RNA4.

Background: Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), encodes either four or five plus-sense single stranded RNAs and is the causal agent of sugar beet rhizomania disease, which is widely distributed in most regions of the world. BNYVV can also infect Nicotiana benthamiana systemically, and causes severe curling and stunting symptoms in the presence of RNA4 or mild symptoms in the absence of RNA4.

Results: Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) analyses showed that the RNA4-encoded p31 protein fused to the red fluorescent protein (RFP) accumulated mainly in the nuclei of N.

[Rapid inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on peak of [Ca2+]i and PLC in airway smooth muscle].

Objective: In this study, we pretreated the mice ASMCs by dexamethasone (Dex) within 10 min, to test the peak of [Ca2+]i and phospho-PLCbeta (ser1105) in the cells by treated with Ach.

Methods: The peak of [Ca2+]i was measured by Fura-2/AM methods and the phospho-PLCbeta-ser1105 was by Western blot, and compared with dexamethasone pretreated groups. Glucocorticoid receptor antagonist RU486 and the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide groups were settled in our study.

Rapid inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on airway smooth muscle contractions in guinea pigs.

The common disease asthma is characterized by the obstruction, inflammation and increased sensitivity of the airways. Glucocorticoids (GCs) are one of the most potent anti-inflammatory agents available for treating allergic disease. In this study, we report that the GC budesonide (BUD) can rapidly inhibit the histamine-induced contractions of airway smooth muscle in a process mediated by non-genomic mechanisms.
