Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Marsdenia tenacissima dried stems have been used to treat asthma, trachitis, rheumatism, and carbuncles. M. Tenacissima extract is now available in China under the brand name "Xiao Ai Ping" and is commonly used in conjunction with chemotherapy to treat a number of diseases, including liver cancer, gastric cancer, colon cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer.

Cadmium (Cd) is a hazardous heavy metal that threatens human health through the consumption of contaminated rice. To mitigate Cd accumulation in rice grains, it is crucial to reduce Cd uptake. Nevertheless, the transcriptional mechanisms governing Cd uptake in rice remain largely unknown.

This paper introduces an innovative segmentation model that extends the U-Net architecture with a Squeeze and Excitation (SE) mechanism, designed to enhance the detection of moving objects in video streams. By integrating this model into the ViBe motion detection algorithm, we have significantly improved detection accuracy and reduced false positive rates. Our approach leverages adaptive techniques to increase the robustness of the segmentation model in complex scenarios, without requiring extensive manual parameter tuning.

The causal agent of rice bacterial leaf blight (BLB) is Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), which causes serious damage to rice, leading to yield reduction or even crop failure. Brevibacillus laterosporus SN19-1 is a biocontrol strain obtained by long-term screening in our laboratory, which has a good antagonistic effect on a variety of plant pathogenic bacteria.

Low-moisture extrusion (LME) can modify starch structures and enrich their functionality. These LME-made starches may efficiently form inclusion complexes (ICs) with hydrophobic guest molecules, which is profoundly impacted by the guest molecule concentration. In this work, the influence of glycerin monostearin (GMS) concentration on the structure and in vitro digestibility of pre-extruded starch-GMS complexes was investigated.

Cisplatin (Cis) is considered to be one of the most effective drugs for killing cancer cells and remains a first-line chemotherapeutic agent. However, Cis's multiple toxicities (especially nephrotoxicity) have limited its clinical use. (Roxb.

Electro-optic modulator (EOM) is one of the key devices of high-speed optical fiber communication systems and ultra-wideband microwave photonic systems. Silicon-organic hybrid (SOH) integration platform combines the advantages of silicon photonics and organic materials, providing a high electro-optic effect and compact structure for photonic integrated devices. In this paper, we present an SOH-integrated EOM with comprehensive investigation of EOM structure design, silicon waveguide fabrication with Slot structure, on-chip poling of organic electro-optic material, and characterization of EO modulation response.

This study investigated the potential mechanism of action of tea polyphenols (TPs), one of the major active ingredients in tea, to enhance heat resistance in Drosophila and the attenuating effect of heat treatment of TPs on their efficacy. The results showed that TPs were able to prolong the average survival time of Drosophila under high-temperature stress ( < 0.05), but the effect of TPs in prolonging the survival time of was significantly reduced ( < 0.

Photonic integration brings the promise of significant cost, power and space savings and propels the real applications of microwave photonic technology. In this paper, a multiband radio frequency (RF) signal simultaneous receiver using an optical bandpass filter (OBPF) integrated with a photodetector (PD) on a chip is proposed, which was experimentally demonstrated. The OBPF was composed of ring-assisted Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a periodical bandpass response featuring a box-like spectral shape.

Background: Acetylcholine (ACh), as a classical neurotransmitter, plays great roles in the nervous system. There is increasing evidence of its non-neuronal roles in regulating basic cell functions in vertebrates. However, knowledge about the non-neuronal cholinergic system in insects is scarce.

Global warming has prompted scientific communities to consider how to alleviate thermal stress in humans and animals. The present study assessed the supplementation of hsian-tsao extract (HTE) on thermal stress in and preliminarily explicated its possible physiological and molecular mechanisms. Our results indicated that the lethal time for 50% of female flies fed on HTE was significantly longer than that of male flies at the same heat stress temperature.

Existence of cantharidin (CTD) in blister beetles is a significant ecological adaptive mechanism that defends against predators and regulates courtship and mating behaviors. To better understand CTD biosynthetic information as well as its biology and pharmacology, we assembled a genome of 151.88 Mb for Epicauta chinensis using PacBio sequencing technology.

Background: Insect glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play a crucial role in insecticide detoxification. However, there remains a distinct lack of information regarding the role of GSTs in the detoxification of Tolfenpyrad (TFP) in insects.

Results: Real-time quantitative PCR showed significant upregulation of PxGSTs after exposure to TFP for 6 h.
