    In this study, a co-pigmentation complex formed by ionic complexation of blueberry anthocyanins (BA) with chondroitin sulfate (CS) was bound to pullulan (PU) to prepare a steady-state BA-CS-PU system by a combination of co-pigmentation and encapsulation technology. The co-pigmentation and stabilizing effects of CS on BA were evaluated by ultraviolet-visible (UV-visible) spectroscopy and color parameters. The structure of BA-CS-PU was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and the mechanism of co-pigmentation and encapsulation was explained. The processing and digestive stability of the steady-state system were evaluated under simulated heat, acid-base strength, co-existence with vitamin C (VC) and in vitro digestion conditions. The results showed that the addition of CS caused a red shift in the UV spectrum and an increase in absorbance, and enhanced the redness, thereby resulting in co-pigmentation effect, which was related to the ionic complexation between the sulfate group of CS and the flavylium ion of BA. The encapsulation effect of PU could be achieved through hydrogen bonding. In addition, co-pigmentation with CS and encapsulation with PU significantly improved the retention rate and a value of BA under heat, acid-base strength and VC co-existence conditions, and also enhanced the gastrointestinal digestive stability, with an 8.63% increase in retention rate. The results of this study provide a basis for in-depth processing of anthocyanin-rich berries

    Water depth-dependent stem elongation of completely submerged Alternanthera philoxeroides is mediated by intra-internodal growth variations

    Complete submergence, especially deep submergence, poses a serious threat to the growth and survival of plants. One study previously showed that Alternanthera philoxeroides (a herbaceous perennial plant) submerged at depth of 2 m presented fast stem elongation and reduced stem elongation as water depth increased. In the present study, we aimed to figure out from the morphological and anatomical perspective how the differential growth response of the plant to water depth was achieved. We investigated the elongation of different stem parts and the relationship of stem elongation to cell size and number in A. philoxeroides by conducting experiments using a series of submergence depths (0 m, 2 m, 5 m, and 9 m). The results showed that, in comparison with unsubmerged plants, completely submerged plants exhibited enhanced elongation at depths of 2 m and 5 m but suppressed elongation at depth of 9 m in immature stem internodes, and displayed very little elongation in mature stem internodes at any depths. The stem growth of A. philoxeroides at any submergence depth was chiefly caused by the elongation of the basal parts of immature internodes. The elongation of the basal parts of immature internodes was highly correlated to both cell proliferation and cell enlargement, but the elongation of the middle and upper parts of immature internodes correlated nearly only with cell enlargement. This study provided new information on the growth responses of A. philoxeroides to heterogeneous submergence environments and deepened our understanding of the growth performance of terrestrial plants in habitats prone to deep floods

    Euonymus japonicus Beihaidao is one of the most economically important ornamental species of the Euonymus genus. There are approximately 97 genera and 1194 species of plants worldwide in this family (Celastraceae). Using E. japonicus Beihaidao, we conducted a preliminary study of the cold resistance of this species, evaluated its performance during winter, assembled and annotated its chloroplast genome, and performed a series of analyses to investigate its gene structure GC content, sequence alignment, and nucleic acid diversity. Our objectives were to understand the evolutionary relationships of the genus and to identify positive selection genes that may be related to adaptations to environmental change. The results indicated that E. japonicus Beihaidao leaves have certain cold resistance and can maintain their viability during wintering. Moreover, the chloroplast genome of E. japonicus Beihaidao is a typical double-linked ring tetrad structure, which is similar to that of the other four Euonymus species, E. hamiltonianus, E. phellomanus, E. schensianus, and E. szechuanensis, in terms of gene structure, gene species, gene number, and GC content. Compared to other Celastraceae species, the variation in the chloroplast genome sequence was lower, and the gene structure was more stable. The phylogenetic relationships of 37 species inferred that members of the Euonymus genus do not form a clade and that E. japonicus Beihaidao is closely related to E. japonicus and E. fortunei. A total of 11 functional positive selected genes were identified, which may have played an important role in the process of Celastraceae species adapting to environmental changes. Our study provides important genetic information to support further investigations into the phylogenetic development and adaptive evolution of Celastraceae species

    Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 1201 Inhibits Intestinal Infection of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Typhimurium Strain ATCC 13311 in Mice with High-Fat Diet

    Salmonella Typhimurium is widely distributed in food. It can colonise the gastrointestinal tract after ingestion, causing lamina propria edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and mucosal epithelial decomposition. A high-fat diet (HFD) can induce an inflammatory response, but whether HFD can increase the infection level of S. Typhimurium is unknown. We established a model of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium strain ATCC 13311 ATCC 13311 infection in healthy adult mice with a maintenance diet (MD) or HFD to explore the effect of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 1201 intervention on S. Typhimurium ATCC 13311 colonization and its protective effects on mice. HFD exacerbated the infection of S. Typhimurium ATCC 13311, while the intervention of L. plantarum 1201 effectively mitigated this process. L. plantarum 1201 can reduce the colonies of S. ATCC 13311 in the intestines and tissues; and reduce intestinal inflammation by down-regulating the level of TLR4/NF-&kappa;B pathway related proteins in serum and the expression of related inflammatory factors in the colon and jejunum. Since L. plantarum 1201 can inhibit the colonization of S. Typhimurium ATCC 13311 and relieve inflammation in HFD, current research may support the use of L. plantarum 1201 to prevent S. Typhimurium infection

    Serum Untargeted Metabolism Reveals the Mechanism of L. plantarum ZDY2013 in Alleviating Kidney Injury Induced by High-Salt Diet

    A high-salt diet (HSD) is one of the key risk factors for hypertension and kidney injury. In this study, a HSD C57BL/6J mice model was established with 4% NaCl, and then different concentrations of Lactobacillus plantarum ZDY2013 were intragastrically administered for 2 weeks to alleviate HSD-induced renal injury. For the study, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, non-targeted metabonomics, real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR, and Masson&rsquo;s staining were used to investigate the mechanism of L. plantarum ZDY2013 in alleviating renal damage. Results showed that HSD caused intestinal inflammation and changed the intestinal permeability of mice, disrupted the balance of intestinal flora, and increased toxic metabolites (tetrahydrocorticosteron (THB), 3-methyhistidine (3-MH), creatinine, urea, and L-kynurenine), resulting in serious kidney damage. Interestingly, L. plantarum ZDY2013 contributed to reconstructing the intestinal flora of mice by increasing the level of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium and decreasing that of Prevotella and Bacteroides. Moreover, the reconstructed intestinal microbiota significantly changed the concentration of the metabolites of hosts through metabolic pathways, including TCA cycle, ABC transport, purine metabolism, and histidine metabolism. The content of uremic toxins such as L-kynurenine, creatinine, and urea in the serum of mice was found to be decreased by L. plantarum ZDY2013, which resulted in renal injury alleviation. Our data suggest that L. plantarum ZDY2013 can indeed improve chronic kidney injury by regulating intestinal flora, strengthening the intestinal barrier, limiting inflammatory response, and reducing uremic toxins

    Broadband Self-Powered CdS ETL-Based MAPbI<sub>3</sub> Heterojunction Photodetector Induced by a Photovoltaic–Pyroelectric–Thermoelectric Effect

    No full text
    CdS, with a noncentrosymmetric structure, is thought as an important electron transport layer (ETL) in perovskite-based devices, but its pyroelectric effect, which can efficiently modulate the optoelectronic processes, is not well explored. In this work, a MAPbI3 heterojunction of CdS/MAPbI3/Spiro-OMeTAD with a c-axis preferred oxygen-doped CdS ETL is developed as a high-performance photodetector (PD). This PD exhibits a stable self-powered property in the spectral range of ∼360–780 nm due to its excellent photovoltaic effect. Moreover, the light-induced pyroelectric potential in the CdS ETL is demonstrated to be an efficient approach for improving the photoresponses, and different effects are observed for different laser irradiations, which can be well understood from their working mechanisms. Upon 450 nm laser irradiation, the photovoltage responsivity (R) is greatly improved from 596.9 to 6383.6 V/W with an increment of 1069.54%. In addition, the response spectrum is also extended outside the bandgap restriction of the MAPbI3 to 1550 nm due to both the pyroelectric and photothermoelectric effects, which is a big breakthrough for the perovskite heterojunction PD. Through turning the external bias voltage and ambient temperature, the coupling mechanisms of the pyroelectric and photovoltaic effects are further analyzed. This work provides an important understanding of designing the CdS ETL-based perovskite heterojunction for broadband high-performance photoelectric devices by introducing the pyroelectric effect
