Ramulus Mori (Sangzhi) Alkaloids Ameliorate Obesity-Linked Adipose Tissue Metabolism and Inflammation in Mice.

Obesity has become a global epidemic disease as it is closely associated with a chronic low-grade inflammatory state that results in metabolic dysfunction. Ramulus Mori (Sangzhi) alkaloids (SZ-A) derived from L. were licensed to treat type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in 2020.

(Sangzhi) Alkaloids Alleviate High-Fat Diet-Induced Obesity and Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Mice.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), obesity, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have highly related mechanisms. (Sangzhi) alkaloids (SZ-A) from L. were approved in 2020 for the treatment of T2DM.

[Micro-Raman Spectral Characteristics and Implication of FeS2 from Metamorphic Belt between Coal and Intrusion in Wolonghu Coal Mine of Anhui Province, China].

Some FeS2 samples among metamorphic belt between coal and intrusion from Wolonghu mine in the north of Anhui Province were retrieved to characterize the signature of Raman Spectral. The results show that, all Raman data of different samples can be divided into 3 types as Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ according to distinct differences of in Raman mode (M), Raman shift (Δν) and scattering intensity (Ⅰ). There are five strong scattering modes including high value Eg (1.

Rice SUVH histone methyltransferase genes display specific functions in chromatin modification and retrotransposon repression.

Histone lysine methylation plays an important role in heterochromatin formation and reprogramming of gene expression. SET-domain-containing proteins are shown to have histone lysine methyltransferase activities. A large number of SET-domain genes are identified in plant genomes.
