Integrated approach with UHPLC-Q-Exactive-tandem mass spectrometry, network analysis, and molecular docking to determine potential active compounds and mechanisms of Rhizoma Musae decoction in osteoarthritis treatment.

Objective: This study aimed to identify the potential active compounds in Rhizoma Musae decoction and understand their mechanisms of action in osteoarthritis treatment.

Methods: UHPLC-Q-Exactive-MS/MS technology was used for an in-depth analysis of the chemical compounds present in Rhizoma Musae decoction. A network analysis approach was used to construct a comprehensive network of compounds, targets, and pathways, which provided insights into the molecular mechanisms of Rhizoma Musae decoction in osteoarthritis treatment.

Fracture-healing effects of Rhizoma Musae ethanolic extract: An integrated study using UHPLC-Q-Exactive-MS/MS, network pharmacology, and molecular docking.

Background: Fracture disrupts the integrity and continuity of the bone, leading to symptoms such as pain, tenderness, swelling, and bruising. Rhizoma Musae is a medicinal material frequently utilized in the Miao ethnic region of Guizhou Province, China. However, its specific mechanism of action in treating fractures remains unknown.

Chlorpyrifos Influences Tadpole Development by Disrupting Thyroid Hormone Signaling Pathways.

Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is a widely used organophosphate insecticide with serious toxicological effects on aquatic animals. Although extensively studied for neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption, its stage-specific effects on amphibian metamorphosis and receptor-level interactions remain unclear. This study investigated the effects of CPF on metamorphosis at environmentally relevant concentrations (1.

Exploring the action mechanism of Oxalis corniculata L. decoction in treating osteoarthritis utilizing liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry technology combined with network pharmacology.

This study aimed to identify the chemical constituents of Oxalis corniculata L. decoction. Furthermore, the mechanism of action of O corniculata L.

Feeding Eucommia ulmoides extract enhances protection against high-temperature stress in chicks.

Chick's susceptibility to heat stress often leads to growth retardation, immune function impairment, disease, and mortality. This thesis explores the potential ameliorative effect of 0.8% Eucommia ulmoides extract (EUE) into the diet of heat-stressed chicks in a 15-d feeding trial.

Phylogeny and Genetic Divergence among Sorghum Mosaic Virus Isolates Infecting Sugarcane.

Sorghum mosaic virus (SrMV, the genus of the family ) is a causal agent of common mosaic in sugarcane and poses a threat to the global sugar industry. In this study, a total of 901 sugarcane leaf samples with mosaic symptom were collected from eight provinces in China and were detected via RT-PCR using a primer pair specific to the SrMV coat protein (). These leaf samples included 839 samples from modern cultivars ( spp.

Lanostane triterpenoids with anti-proliferative and PTP1B/α-glucosidase inhibitory activities from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma calidophilum.

Twelve previously undescribed and four known lanostane triterpenoids were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma calidophilum. The structures of undescribed compounds, ganodecalones H-S (1-12), were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis as well as ECD and NMR calculations. Compound 4 showed significant inhibitory activity against human leukaemia cell line K562, gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901, and cervical cancer cell line HeLa with IC values of 13.

Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of VQ gene family under abiotic stress in Coix lacryma-jobi L.

Background: Valine-glutamine (VQ) proteins are non-specific plant proteins that have a highly conserved motif: FxxhVQxhTG. These proteins are involved in the development of various plant organs such as seeds, hypocotyls, flowers, leaves and also play a role in response to salt, drought and cold stresses. Despite their importance, there is limited information available on the evolutionary and structural characteristics of VQ family genes in Coix lacryma-jobi.

Dietary Extract Alleviates the Effect of Cold Stress on Chick Growth Performance, Antioxidant and Immune Ability.

This study aimed to investigate the protective value of extract (EUE) on chicks under cold stress. A total of 21 compounds were identified in EUE using mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Ninety chicks were divided into a control group (CS) fed a basal diet and an experimental group supplemented with EUE, exposed to 10 ± 1 °C for 8 h per day.

Comparative genomics reveals insights into genetic variability and molecular evolution among sugarcane yellow leaf virus populations.

Yellow leaf disease caused by sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) is one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide. In this study, six near-complete genome sequences of SCYLV were determined to be 5775-5881 bp in length. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the two SCYLV isolates from Réunion Island, France, and four from China were clustered into REU and CUB genotypes, respectively, based on 50 genomic sequences (this study = 6, GenBank = 44).

Genetic Variability and Molecular Evolution of Maize Yellow Mosaic Virus Populations from Different Geographic Origins.

Maize yellow mosaic virus (MaYMV) hosted in various gramineous plants was assigned to the genus (family ) in 2018. However, little is known about its genetic diversity and population structure. In this study, 509 sugarcane leaf samples with mosaic symptoms were collected in 2017 to 2019 from eight sugarcane-growing provinces in China.
