Acid alpha-glucosidase purified from human placenta was used to immunize a mouse (strain Balb/cHeA) according to a procedure described earlier (Stähli, C., Staehlin, T., Miggiano, V., Schmidt, J. and Häring, P. (1980) J. Immunol. Methods 32, 297-304). After fusion of spleen cells with myeloma cells, about 10% of the hybrid clones obtained produced antibodies against acid alpha-glucosidase. Finally, eight stable clones producing antibodies against the enzyme were obtained. When purified acid alpha-glucosidase is analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate, two major protein bands (mol. wt. 76000 and 70000,) a minor band of mol. wt. 9600 and several minor bands with a mol. wt. of 67000 or lower are seen. Since all these components react with the monoclonal antibodies, they must have at least one antigenic determinant in common.

The chemical investigation of the fruits of Garcinia schomburgkiana growing in Vietnam led to the isolation of a new anofinic acid derivative, 5-hydroxy-8-methoxyanofinic acid (1), a new xanthone, xanthoschome C (2), and a known synthetic phenolic analogue, 4-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2-(4-hydroxybenzyl) phenol (3), along with seven known xanthones (4-10). The structures of all isolated compounds were determined using spectroscopic techniques (NMR and MS), in conjunction with comparison to existing literature data. All isolated compounds were assessed for their α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and showed significant inhibition, with IC50 values ranging from 12.

Pompe disease is a neuromuscular disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (), which leads to lysosomal glycogen accumulation and progressive development of muscle weakness. Two distinct isoforms have been identified. In the infantile form, the weakness is often severe and leads to motor difficulties from the first few months of life.

: Tannic acid (TA) is a well-known natural phenolic acid composed of ten gallic acids linked to each other with ester bonding possessing excellent antioxidant properties in addition to antimicrobial and anticancer characteristics. Arginine (ARG) is a positively charged amino acid at physiological pH because of nitrogen-rich side chain. : Here, poly(tannic acid-co-arginine) (p(TA-co-ARG)) particles at three mole ratios, TA:ARG = 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3, were prepared via a Mannich condensation reaction between TA and ARG by utilizing formaldehyde as a linking agent.

Suitable planting systems are critical for the physicochemical and bioactivities of strawberry ( Duch.) polysaccharides (SPs). In this study, SPs were prepared through hot water extraction, and the differences in physicochemical characteristics and bioactivities between SPs derived from elevated matrix soilless planting strawberries (EP-SP) and those from and conventional soil planting strawberries (GP-SP) were investigated.
