    Abstract Hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis seldom occurs in the second trimester of pregnancy with gestational diabetes mellitus. For these patients, the existing knowledge on concomitant hyperglycemia is not sufficient. We report a case of abruptio placentae and epileptic seizure following perinatal hyperglycaemia in woman with gestational diabetes mellitus and hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis. The occurrence of abruptio placentae and epileptic seizure may be associated with concomitant hyperglycemia, and the epileptic seizure was terminated after she underwent treatment with insulin. We should pay more attention to the adverse effects of perinatal hyperglycemia and continue to give appropriate insulin treatment even if patients have passed the acute phase of hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis.

  3. Article ; Online: Wheat gluten deamidation: structure, allergenicity and its application in hypoallergenic noodles.

    Abstract Background: Wheat gluten (WG) containing gliadin and glutenin are considered the main allergens in wheat allergy as a result of their glutamine-rich peptides. Deamidation is a viable and efficient approach for protein modifications converting glutamine into glutamic acid, which may have the potential for allergenicity reduction of WG.
    Results: Deamidation by citric acid was performed to investigate the effects on structure, allergenicity and noodle textural properties of wheat gluten (WG). WG was heated at 100 °C in 1 m citric acid to yield deamidated WG with degrees of deamidation (DD) ranging from DWG-25 (25% DD) to DWG-70 (70% DD). Fourier-transform infrared and intrinsic fluorescence spectroscopy results suggested the unfolding of WG structure during deamidation, and sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed molecular weight shifts at the 35-63 kDa region, suggesting that the deamidation mainly occurred on low molecular weight glutenin subunits and γ- gliadin of the WG. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay of deamidated WG revealed a decrease in absorbance and immunoblotting indicated that the intensities of protein bands at 35-63 kDa decreased, which suggested that deamidation of WG might have caused a greater loss of epitopes than the generation of new epitopes caused by unfolding of WG, and thereby reduction of the immunodominant immunoglobulin E binding capacity, ultimately leading to the decrease in allergenicity. DWG-25 was used in the preparation of recombinant hypoallergenic noodles, and the hardness, elasticity, chewiness and gumminess were improved significantly by the addition of azodicarbonamide.
    Conclusion: The present shows the potential for deamidation of the WG products used in novel hypoallergenic food development. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

    Abstract Macrophage as a crucial component of innate immunity, plays an important role in inflammation and infection immunity. Notch signal pathway is a highly conserved pathway, which regulates cellular fate and participates in numerous pathological processes. At present, a lot of literature has confirmed the role of Notch signaling in regulating the differentiation, activation and metabolism of macrophage during inflammation and infection. This review focuses on how Notch signaling promotes macrophage pro-inflammatory and anti-infective immune function in different inflammatory and infectious diseases. In this regulation, Notch signaling interact with TLR signaling in macrophages or inflammatory-related cytokines including IL-6, IL-12, and TNF-α. Additionally, the potential application and challenges of Notch signaling as a therapeutic target against inflammation and infectious diseases are also discussed.

    Abstract Purpose: To investigate the dose-sensitometric response of extended dose range (EDR2) films to scanning carbon-ion beams and to evaluate the applications of the obtained response curves to carbon-ion dose distributions.
    Methods: EDR2 films were irradiated by mono-energetic scanning carbon-ion beams with different doses to obtain sensitometric curves at different integrated depth doses (DDDs). Six different DDDs were generated by using a proper buildup for each mono-energetic beam and were used to investigate the energy dependence. The sensitometric curves were obtained by fitting the net optical density (netOD) to dose at different DDDs. The dose difference between the value converted from the netOD and that calculated in the treatment planning system (TPS) was investigated to evaluate the application scope of the sensitometric curve.
    Results: Digitizing the EDR2 film with a resolution of 0.36 (72 dpi) provided a good signal-to-noise ratio, and the sensitometric curve was linear at all DDDs of clinically relevant incident kinetic energies in the netOD range of 0.02-1.70 for carbon-ion film dosimetry. The factors used to convert the netOD to absorbed dose were expressed as a linear function of DDDs, with which the depth dose difference between converted and TPS was less than 3% in the proximal area for incident kinetic energies lower than 307.5 MeV/u.
    Conclusion: The EDR2 film is a feasible tool for scanning carbon-ion beam profile measurements by directly evaluating the netOD distribution with proper digitizing resolution and netOD range. By applying the conversion factors, the EDR2 film can also be employed to perform the percentage depth dose consistency checking and linear energy transfer comparison of carbon-ion lower than 307.5 MeV/u.

    Abstract Currently, growing concerns about sustainable development and health awareness have driven the development of plant-based meat substitutes. Soybean proteins (SPs) are eco-friendly and high-quality food sources with well-balanced amino acids to meet consumer demand. The functionality and physicochemical attributes of SPs can be improved by appropriate processing and modification. With the burgeoning advances of modern processing technologies in the food industry, a multitude of functional foods and ingredients can be manufactured based on SPs. This review mainly highlights the conformational changes of SPs under traditional and emerging processing technologies and the resultant functionality modifications. By elucidating the relationship between processing-induced structural and functional alterations, detailed and systematic insights are provided regarding the exploitation of these techniques to develop different nutritional and functional soybean products. Some popular methods to modify SPs properties are discussed in this paper, including thermal treatment, fermentation, enzyme catalysis, high hydrostatic pressure, high-intensity ultrasound, atmospheric cold plasma, high-moisture extrusion, glycosylation, pulsed ultraviolet light and interaction with polyphenols. Given these processing technologies, it is promising to expand the application market for SPs and boost the advancement of the soybean industry.

    Abstract Argonaute (Ago) proteins are ubiquitous across all kingdoms of life. Eukaryotic Agos (eAgos) use small RNAs to recognize transcripts for RNA silencing in eukaryotes. In contrast, the functions of prokaryotic counterparts (pAgo) are less well known. Recently, short pAgos in conjunction with the associated TIR or Sir2 (SPARTA or SPARSA) were found to serve as antiviral systems to combat phage infections.

    Abstract The water pollution caused by the release of organic pollutants has attracted remarkable attention, and solutions for wastewater treatment are being developed. In particular, the photocatalytic removal of organic pollutants in water systems is a promising strategy to realize the self-cleaning of ecosystems under solar light irradiation. However, at present the semiconductor-based nanocatalysts can barely satisfy the industrial requirements because their wide bandgaps restrict the effective absorption of solar light, which needs an energy band modification to boost the visible light harvesting via surface engineering. As an innovative approach, pulsed laser heating in liquids has been utilized to fabricate the nanomaterials in catalysis; it demonstrates multi-controllable features, such as size, morphology, crystal structure, and even optical or electrical properties, with which photocatalytic performances can be precisely optimized. In this review, focusing on the powerful heating effect of pulsed laser irradiation in liquids, the functional nanomaterials fabricated by laser technology and their applications in the catalytic degradation of various organic pollutants are summarized. This review not only highlights the innovative works of pulsed laser-prepared nanomaterials for organic pollutant removal in water systems, such as the photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes and the catalytic reduction of toxic nitrophenol and nitrobenzene, it also critically discusses the specific challenges and outlooks of this field, including the weakness of the produced yields and the relevant automatic strategies for massive production.
