RESUMEN

In laying hens, fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome (FLHS) is a common metabolic disorder, which can affect egg production and nutritional value. However, the impact of FLHS on the lipid content in egg yolks was not clear. In this study, FLHS model was induced by using high-energy low-protein diet, and the egg quality was evaluated. Egg yolk lipids were quantitatively analyzed by using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry combined with multivariate statistical analysis. Gene expressions of the lipoprotein were determined by qRT-PCR and antioxidant capacity of the egg yolk were determined by kits. The elevated blood lipids and extensive lipid droplets observed indicated successful establishment of the FLHS model in laying hens. Measurements of egg quality showed that egg yolk weight was increased in the FLHS group. Lipidomics revealed that 1,401 lipids, comprising 27 lipid subclasses in the egg yolk. According to score plots of principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis, different lipid profile was observed between the control and FLHS groups. A total of 97 different lipid species were screen out. Sphingolipid and glycerophospholipid metabolism were identified as key pathways. Free polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) exhibited an increase in the FLHS group (P < 0.05). Notably, the form of PUFAs was changed that the FLHS group showed an increase in triacylglycerol-docosahexenoic acid and triacylglycerol-arachidonic acid in the egg yolk, while triacylglycerol-α-linolenic acid was decreased (P < 0.05). Total superoxide dismutase was decreased in the egg yolks affected by FLHS. Gene expressions of vitellogenin 2 (VTG2), VTG3, very low-density apolipoprotein II and apolipoprotein B were increased in the liver of laying hens with FLHS (P < 0.05). In conclusion, FLHS promoted the lipid transport from the liver to the yolk by upregulating lipoprotein expression, which altered lipid profile, and reduced antioxidant capacity in the yolk. This study provided a foundation for understanding the changes in lipids, lipid transport and lipid antioxidation capacity in egg yolk from laying hens with FLHS.

RESUMEN

Apple is an important fruit, and fruit authentication is significant for quality and safety control. The Loess Plateau (LP) in China is an important apple-producing region. However, the geographic authentication of LP apples has not been well studied. In this study, we discriminated LP apples based on multielement analysis. We analysed the differences in 29 elements of 522 samples collected from LP and others in 2018-2020 and constructed discriminant models for LP apple authentication. Linear discriminant analysis, partial least square-discriminant analysis, back-propagation artificial neural networks, and random forest (RF) showed different rates in training and validation accuracy. RF showed better tolerance to the removal of the less-important elements in model optimization. The final RF was optimized on 11 elements, which obtained 95.30% training accuracy for the 2018-2019 samples and 97.29% validation accuracy for the 2020 samples. The multielement-based authentication of LP apples could aid further studies of geographical origins.

RESUMEN

A simple coumarin hydrazine Schiff base bearing a thioether recognition fragment (compound CBBS) has been rationally designed and easily prepared. CBBS exhibited an excellent selectivity for Pd(II) and a low detection limit of 65 nM (S/N = 3). The fluorescence emission intensities of CBBS at 495 nm were linear to Pd(II) concentrations in a wide range from 0 to 80 µM. Moreover, CBBS has been well used in fluorescence imaging of Pd(II) in living A549 cells. CBBS as a simple coordination-based fluorescent probe will inspire the researchers to develop a polymer for selective detection and adsorption of Pd(II).

RESUMEN

Introduction: Inflammation is a defensive response of the body and the pathological basis of many diseases. However, excessive inflammation and chronic inflammation impair the homeostasis of the organism. Arachidonic acid (AA) has a close relationship with inflammation and is the main mediator of the pro-inflammatory response. Based on the prodrug principle, the new pharmaceutical compound aspirin eugenol ester (AEE) was designed and synthesized. However, the effects of AEE on key enzymes, metabolites and inflammatory signaling pathways in the AA metabolic network have not been reported. Methods: In this study, the anti-inflammation effects of AEE were first investigated in mice and RAW264.7 cells in LPS induced inflammation model. Then, the changes of the key enzymes and AA metabolites were explored by RT-PCR and targeted metabolomics. Moreover, the regulatory effects on NF-kB and MAPKS signaling pathways were explored by Western Blotting. Results: Results indicated that AEE significantly reduced the number of leukocyte and increased the lymphocyte percentage. AEE decreased the expression levels of IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α both in vivo and in vitro. In the liver of mice, AEE downregulated the levels of AA, prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and upregulated 12- hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE). However, the changes of PGE2, PGF2α, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-KETO-PGF1α), 9-hydroxy-octadecenoic acid (9- HODE), 13-HODE, 15-HETE, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) were not significant. Additionally, it was found that AEE decreased the relative mRNA expression levels of p65 and p38 and the ratio of p-p65/p65. Discussion: It was concluded that AEE might inhibit the LPS-induced inflammatory response through the regulation of AA metabolism. This study provides the theoretical foundation for the development of AEE as a medicinal anti-inflammatory drug.

RESUMEN

Postharvest peaches undergo rapid soft ripening and are susceptible to fungal diseases, which often result in severe losses during storage. The peach epidermis contains trichomes that form a specific structure on the peach surface. However, the relationship between trichomes and postharvest disease and involved mechanisms has not been well studied. In this study, the removal of trichomes reduced the disease incidence of peach brown rot caused by Monilinia fructicola. Cryo-scanning electron microscope observations showed that the fungal hyphae were found attached to the surface of trichomes. The fungal and bacterial communities on the peach surface at 0 d and 6 d were obtained by amplicon sequencing technology. Fungal communities on the peach surface contained a total of 1089 amplicon sequence variants (ASVs), which were demarcated into eight fungal phyla, 25 classes, 66 orders, 137 families, and 228 genera. The bacterial communities contained 10,821 ASVs assigned to 25 phyla, 50 classes, 114 orders, 220 families, and 507 genera. Higher bacterial diversity than fungal diversity was recorded on the peach epidermis. Trichome removal changed the microbial diversity and community on the peach surface. Compared with peach epidermis samples, the peach epidermis excluded trichomes samples contained similar fungal alpha diversity but significantly lower bacterial diversity. Seventeen different fungal genera and twenty-eight different bacterial genera were identified between peach trichome and peach epidermis excluded trichomes samples. The fungal and bacterial diversity on the peach epidermis showed a decreasing trend during storage. Beta diversity analysis revealed that the microbial communities of the peach epidermis and trichomes show different change trends between 0 d and 6 d. Trichome removal decreased relative abundance of Monilinia spp. and increased relative abundance of potential yeast and bacterial biocontrol agents. This study suggested that trichomes might modulate the microbial communities on fruit surfaces, and trichome removal technology after harvest might be developed to control peach postharvest decay.

RESUMEN

Mn-based NASICON-type Na4MnV(PO4)3 (NMVP) has been widely investigated as one of the most promising alternatives to Na3V2(PO4)3 cathodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to its higher energy density, higher abundance, and lower cost and toxicity compared to V. However, electrochemical performance for large-scale applications is limited by NMVP's inferior conductivity and structural degradation during cycling. Herein, a facile strategy to modify the surface/interphase properties of NMVP/C was reported using the thermally stable Al(PO3)3 precursor with a wet process followed by heat treatment to enhance the interface stability of electrodes. The nanomodified layer has the benefits of an ionic conductor (slight NaPO3) and robust composite (Al(PO3)3), which can facilitate the stability of Mn-based cathode materials and ionic conductivity. These merits endow 1 wt% Al(PO3)3-loaded NMVP/C cathodes with a high rate performance (102/61 mAh g-1 at 0.2/50 C) and impressive cyclability (88.5%/89.7% at 5 C/10 C after 3000/4000 cycles) in Na-ion batteries at 2.5-3.8 V. Moreover, when the cutoff voltage is raised to 4 V, improved electrochemical properties (111.6/50.8 mAh g-1 at 0.2/10 C and 71.4% after 1000 cycles at 5 C) are also realized. Such an enhancement indicates that facial surface modification engineering limits organic electrolyte erosion, inhibits transition metal dissolution and suppresses surface lattice degradation, which is confirmed by ex situ X-ray diffractometry and transmission electron microscopy. Therefore, the Al(PO3)3 surface modification strategy combined with mechanism analysis can provide a possible reference for advanced electrochemical properties in energy storage devices.

RESUMEN

Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is a biological oxidant that is related to numerous physiological and pathological processes. An overdose of ONOO- is the cause of various serious diseases. Some evidence demonstrates that mitochondria are the major sites of ONOO- production. Therefore, monitoring mitochondrial ONOO- is important to understand the related pathological processes in living systems. Herein, a colorimetric and far-red fluorescent sensing probe (PCPA) for the determination of ONOO- was constructed based on a dicyanoisophorone skeleton using dimethylphosphorothionate as the recognition group and pyridine salt as the mitochondrion-targeting unit. PCPA showed a far-red fluorescence response to ONOO- accompanied by a distinct color change from colorless to yellow via the ONOO- induced deprotection of dimethylphosphorothionate. In addition, PCPA exhibited a large Stokes shift (200 nm), high selectivity detection and high sensibility (LOD = 39 nM). Furthermore, PCPA was successfully employed for imaging ONOO- and tracing ONOO- in mitochondria. PCPA presents a new recognition group and has potential applications in the biology field.

RESUMEN

Fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome (FLHS) is a metabolic disease that causes decreased egg production and even death in laying hens, which brings huge economic losses to the poultry industry. However, the pathogenesis of FLHS is unclear. The purpose of the present study was to identify the changes in lipid profile and the lipid species related to FLHS. In the present study, the FLHS disease model in Chinese commercial Jing Fen laying hens was induced by a high-energy low-protein diet. A lipidomics approach based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry coupled with multivariate statistical analysis was performed for the qualitative and quantitative analyses of the liver lipids. The results showed that a total of 29 lipid subclasses, including 1,302 lipid species, were detected and identified. Among them, the proportions of phosphatidylserine (Control/FLHS, 33.1% vs. 29.1%), phosphatidylethanolamine (22.7% vs. 15.5%), phosphatidylcholine (15.7% vs. 11.7%) and phosphatidylinositol (7% vs. 6%) were reduced, while triacylglycerol (7.1% vs. 18.3%) and diglyceride (3.9% vs. 11.7%) were increased. Between the Control and FLHS groups, distinct changes in lipid profile were observed in the score plots of principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis. Twelve differential lipid species mainly involved in glycerophospholipid metabolism and linoleic acid metabolism were identified and considered to be related to the pathogenesis of FLHS. Fatty acid chain length and unsaturation were reduced, while the mRNA levels of elongation of very long chain fatty acids-2 (ELOVL2) were increased in the liver of laying hens with FLHS. Collectively, this study characterized the liver lipid profile and explored the changes in lipid species related to FLHS, which provided insights into the pathogenesis of FLHS from the view of lipid metabolism.

RESUMEN

HClO and H2S, as two kinds of crucial small biomolecules, are endowed various roles in biological organisms. The redox balance between HClO and H2S is closely related to the physiological and pathological processes. Thus, it is significant to monitor the redox process between HClO and H2S. Inspired by the advantages of ratiometric fluorescent probes, we firstly developed a reversible ratiometric fluorescent probe (BT-Se) for HClO and H2S via combination of phenyl selenide as the response group and 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)benzothiazole dye as the fluorophore. The proposed probe BT-Se could detect HClO with well-separated dual emission (110 nm), fast response, good selectivity and sensitivity owing to the oxidation reaction of the Se atom induced by HClO. Moreover, only H2S could effectively recover the fluorescence of the detection system to the original state via H2S induced-reduction of selenoxide. Cell imaging studies demonstrated that the probe BT-Se was capable of ratiometric monitoring the changes of intracellular HClO/H2S, which suggested that it has great potential for researching the biological functions of HClO and H2S.

RESUMEN

As a metabolic disease, fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome (FLHS) has become a serious concern in laying hens worldwide. Abrus cantoniensis Hance (AC) is a commonly used plant in traditional medicine for liver disease treatment. Nevertheless, the effect and mechanism of the decoction of AC (ACD) on FLHS remain unclear. In this study, ultra-high performance liquid chromatography analysis was used to identify the main phytochemicals in ACD. FLHS model of laying hens was induced by a high-energy low-protein (HELP) diet, and ACD (0.5, 1, 2 g ACD/hen per day) was given to the hens in drinking water at the same time for 48 days. Biochemical blood indicators and histopathological analysis of the liver were detected and observed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of ACD. Moreover, the effects of ACD on liver metabolomics and gut microbiota in laying hens with FLHS were investigated. The results showed that four phytochemicals, including abrine, hypaphorine, vicenin-2, and schaftoside, were identified in ACD. ACD treatment ameliorated biochemical blood indicators in laying hens with FLHS by decreasing aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and total cholesterol, and increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. In addition, lipid accumulation in the liver and pathological damages were relieved in ACD treatment groups. Moreover, distinct changes in liver metabolic profile after ACD treatment were observed, 17 endogenous liver metabolites mainly associated with the metabolism of arachidonic acid, histidine, tyrosine, and tryptophan were reversed by ACD. Gut microbiota analysis revealed that ACD treatment significantly increased bacterial richness (Chao 1, P < 0.05; Ace, P < 0.01), and upregulated the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and downregulated Proteobacteria, improving the negative effects caused by HELP diet in laying hens. Taken together, ACD had a protective effect on FLHS by regulating blood lipids, reducing liver lipid accumulation, and improving the dysbiosis of liver metabolomics and gut microbiota.

RESUMEN

Detecting and imaging intracellular hypochlorous acid (HClO) is of great importance owning to its prominent role in numerous pathological and physiological processes. In this contribution, a novel AIE-based fluorescent chemosensor has been developed by employing a benzothiazole derivative. The synthesized probe displayed remarkable ratiometric fluorescent response to HClO with a large emission shift (139 nm), resulting in naked-eye fluorescence changes from red to blue. Under the optimal conditions, this probe was capable of quantitatively detecting HClO within 10 s, and possessed good sensitivity and high selectivity toward HClO over other biologically relevant species. Moreover, it has been successfully utilized to image the exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells through dual channels, and conveniently detect hypochlorous acid solution on test strips with better accuracy, demonstrating its potential for monitoring HClO in biological and environment fields.

RESUMEN

Sulfur dioxide (SO2) derivatives are intertwined with many physiological and pathological processes in living systems, and excess intake of them are associated with various diseases. Herein, we have rationally constructed a novel colorimetric and far-red fluorescent probe for HSO3- based on a rhodamine analogue skeleton bearing a 3-quinolinium carboxaldehyde moiety. The novel probe exhibited a significant far-red fluorescence "Turn-on" response to HSO3-, along with obvious color change from reddish to purple via the specific 1,4-nucleophilic addition reaction of HSO3- with the quinolinium moiety in 3-(4-(2-carboxyphenyl)-7-(diethylamino)chromenylium-2-yl)-1-methylquinolin-1-ium hypochlorite trifluoromethanesulfonate (AQCB). The AQCB had excellent water-solubility, and presented rapid response (<15 s),highsensibility(LOD = 49 nM) and selectivity toward HSO3-. In addition, the probe was able to detect the content of HSO3- in food samples with satisfactory results. Furthermore, the probe possessed good cell membrane and could be successfully applied for imaging HSO3- in the mitochondria of living cells.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: The presence of pesticide residues in fruit has been of extensive concern worldwide. Pesticide residues in 150 litchi samples collected in the People's Republic of China were measured, and the dietary exposure risks to consumers were evaluated. The litchi samples were screened by gas chromatography and ultraperformance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry for the possible presence of 57 pesticides. Seventeen pesticides were detected, and 70.7% of samples contained residues of one or more pesticides. The most frequently detected pesticide (36% of samples) was diflubenzuron. Carbofuran in one sample exceeded its maximum residue limit by 125%. In dietary exposure assessments, all concentrations below the limit of detection (LOD) were calculated as 0, 0.5 × the LOD, or at the LOD separately, and these assessments indicated that the chronic health risks from these dietary exposures were extremely low. For acute exposures, carbofuran was at 11.08% of the acute reference dose, and all other pesticides were <2% of the acute reference dose. The findings indicated that the presence of pesticide residues in litchis should not be considered a public health problem.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Half of all apple production worldwide comes from China. However, the geographic authentication of Chinese apples has not been well studied. We highlight the multi-element-based geographical discrimination of apples from the southwest cold highlands (SCH) of China. 565 samples from the SCH (138) and others (427) were obtained, and the content of fifteen elements were applied to construct models for discrimination. RESULTS: The SCH apples from 2017 to 2019 had higher concentrations of Mn, Zn, Cr, Cd, Se, Pb, and Fe, but lower concentrations of Na, B, Ni, and P. With sufficient training, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) discriminated the SCH, and the testing accuracy averaged 92.5% and 92.2%. Nonlinear discrimination models were more suitable than the linear models. Optimized random forest analysis was the model with the best fit, and with averaged training and testing it obtained a level of accuracy of 98.2% and 98.5%. CONCLUSION: The multielement-based discrimination of SCH apples could aid further studies of geographical origins. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

RESUMEN

Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) plays important roles in many pathophysiological processes and its subcellular detection draws increasing attention. In this study, we designed and prepared a novel lysosome-targetable fluorescent probe (E)-2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2- yl)-4-methyl-6-((morpholinoimino)methyl)phenol (BMP) for selective detection of ONOO- in living systems by incorporating a reactive morpholino hydrazone as new ONOO- response site into a benzothiazole derivative as fluorophore. After reaction with ONOO-, an obvious fluorescence increase (83-fold) was observed accompanied with distinct dual colorimetric and fluorescence changes. Probe BMP displayed the merits of fast response (<3 s), ultrasensitivity (LOD = 6 nM) and high selectivity towards ONOO- over other physiological species including ROS/RNS. Most importantly, the probe was capable of imaging ONOO- in lysosomes of living cells with good cell permeation and negligible cytotoxicity. Therefore, this research provides an effective tool to study the functions of ONOO- in lysosomes.

RESUMEN

Bisulfite (HSO3-) and sulfite (SO32-) are involved in numerous physiological processes of living systems. However, high levels of these substances are often correlated to many diseases. Herein, we designed and synthesized a simple full water-soluble colorimetric and far-red fluorescent probe (E)-1-methyl-4-(2-(1-methylquinolin-1-ium-3-yl)vinyl)quinolin-1-ium iodide trifluoromethanesulfonate (DQ) for HSO3-/SO32- detection by coupling 1,4-dimethylquinolinium with 3-quinolinium carboxaldehyde for the first time. The probe DQ showed high selectivity for HSO3- detection via a 1,4-nucleophilic addition reaction with distinct color changes from colorless to purple-red and remarkable far-red fluorescence enhancement in pure aqueous solutions. Specifically, the probe displayed a fast response (<15 s) for bisulfite, which renders it suitable for real time detection of HSO3-. Under the optimized conditions, the far-red fluorescence intensity was linear to the concentrations of HSO3- in the range from 0 to 25 µM and the detection limit was as low as 0.11 µM. Additionally, the probe could be applied to sense HSO3- on paper strips, real sample including vermicelli and sugar and image HSO3- in living cells, which indicated that probe DQ has potential application in food samples and living systems.

RESUMEN

An epoxy-functionalized polymer based on a new skeleton has been prepared via an efficient method and it combined with aminated carbon nanotubes to form a new composite material. This new composite material was applied for the fabrication of an electrochemical immunosensor with good performance. The inexpensive and easily available IgG was used to test the performance of the prepared composite material. The levels of IgG were quantitatively analyzed using a differential pulse voltammetry detection system and the lowest detection limit was calculated to be 0.05 ng/mL. The detection system can also respond to IgG in the concentration range from 0.1 to 25 ng/mL.

RESUMEN

The development of DNA sequencing technology has provided an effective method for studying foodborne and phytopathogenic microorganisms on fruits and vegetables (F & V). DNA sequencing has successfully proceeded through three generations, including the tens of operating platforms. These advances have significantly promoted microbial whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and DNA polymorphism research. Based on genomic and regional polymorphisms, genetic markers have been widely obtained. These molecular markers are used as targets for PCR or chip analyses to detect microbes at the genetic level. Furthermore, metagenomic analyses conducted by sequencing the hypervariable regions of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) have revealed comprehensive microbial communities in various studies on F & V. This review highlights the basic principles of three generations of DNA sequencing, and summarizes the WGS studies of and available DNA markers for major bacterial foodborne pathogens and phytopathogenic fungi found on F & V. In addition, rDNA sequencing-based bacterial and fungal metagenomics are summarized under three topics. These findings deepen the understanding of DNA sequencing and its application in studies of foodborne and phytopathogenic microbes and shed light on strategies for the monitoring of F & V microbes and quality control.

RESUMEN

Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) plays a vital role in pathological and physiological processes, and an excessive amount of ONOO- causes various diseases. Developing a specific and sensitive method for the detection of ONOO- in biological systems is significant. Herein, we reported a novel colorimetric and near-infrared fluorescent probe (pyridin-4-ylmethyl (Z)-2-cyano-2-(3-((E)-4-hydroxystyryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)acetate diphenyl phosphinate group (AN-DP)) based on isophorone and phosphinate groups for ONOO- detection. The probe displayed excellent selectivity toward ONOO- compared with other relevant analytes. It showed a good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity at 670 nm and ONOO- concentration (0-10 µM) with a low detection limit (53 nM). Importantly, the probe was a colorimetric and near-infrared fluorescent probe suitable for ONOO- detection. Furthermore, the probe could be used for imaging ONOO- in HepG2 cells.

RESUMEN

Developing an effective method for monitoring fluoride ion in biological samples is meaningful because fluoride ion plays a vital role in biological processes. In this contribution, a simple water-soluble ESIPT fluorescent probe 2-((4-((tert-butyldiphenylsilyl)oxy)-1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)methyl)-1-ethylpyridin-1-ium iodide (SPI) was constructed for monitoring fluoride ion. The probe SPI containing pyridinium salt group exhibited preeminent water solubility. The probe SPI introducing a trimethyldiphenylsilyl ether recognition group displayed excellent selectivity for fluoride ion over other biologically relevant species. Additionally, the probe SPI exhibited a fast response for a fluoride ion, suggesting that it could provide real-time fluoride ion detection. Importantly, the probe could detect fluoride ion with a linear range of 0-70.0 × 10-6 M and a low detection limit of 1.16 × 10-6 M. Furthermore, probe SPI could detect fluoride ion with a large Stokes shift (98 nm), which was attributed to ESIPT fluorescence sensing process. At last, probe SPI was successfully employed to monitor fluoride ion in living cells.
