    Abstract Broccoli sprouts have been considered as functional foods which have received increasing attention because they have been highly prized for glucosinolates, phenolics, and vitamins in particular glucosinolates. One of hydrolysates-sulforaphane from glucoraphanin is positively associated with the attenuation of inflammatory, which could reduce diabetes, cardiovascular and cancer risk. In recent decades, the great interest in natural bioactive components especially for sulforaphane promotes numerous researchers to investigate the methods to enhance glucoraphanin levels in broccoli sprouts and evaluate the immunomodulatory activities of sulforaphane. Therefore, glucosinolates profiles are different in broccoli sprouts varied with genotypes and inducers. Physicochemical, biological elicitors, and storage conditions were widely studied to promote the accumulation of glucosinolates and sulforaphane in broccoli sprouts. These inducers would stimulate the biosynthesis pathway gene expression and enzyme activities of glucosinolates and sulforaphane to increase the concentration in broccoli sprouts. The immunomodulatory activity of sulforaphane was summarized to be a new therapy for diseases with immune dysregulation. The perspective of this review served as a potential reference for customers and industries by application of broccoli sprouts as a functional food and clinical medicine.

    Abstract Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are synthetic polymers with predetermined selectivity for a given analyte. One major problem associated with MIPs is the inaccessibility of a large fraction of the recognition sites that remain buried within the polymeric matrix. To address this problem, the high selectivity imparted by the imprinting technique and the porosity of three-dimensional (3D) graphene oxide (GO)-based porous materials were utilized in this work to prepare a 3D GO-based Cu(II)-ion-imprinted material (hereafter denoted as IIM) via one-pot reactions of GO, chitosan (CS), and glutaraldehyde in the presence of Cu(II). Results of equilibrium binding experiments show that IIM has a high template-ion binding capacity (1.75 mmol g

Results of equilibrium binding experiments show that IIM has a high template-ion binding capacity (1.75 mmol g⁻¹) and good imprinting factor (2.19). Further, results of selectivity tests indicate that IIM has a high Cu(II)-recognition ability. IIM also has a fast binding rate and satisfactory reusability. In addition, the Langmuir isotherm model was well fitted with the experimental data, indicating the monolayer adsorption of Cu(II) ions. The present work provided a convenient approach to prepare 3D GO-based imprinted materials that are promising for enrichment or recycling of target compounds from wastewater.

    Abstract The cell death-inducing DFF45-like effector (CIDE) proteins, including Cidea, Cideb, and Cidec/Fsp27, regulate various aspects of lipid homeostasis, including lipid storage, lipolysis, and lipid secretion. This review focuses on the physiological roles of CIDE proteins based on studies on knockout mouse models and human patients bearing CIDE mutations. The primary cellular function of CIDE proteins is to localize to lipid droplets (LDs) and to control LD fusion and growth across different cell types. We propose a four-step process of LD fusion, characterized by (a) the recruitment of CIDE proteins to the LD surface and CIDE movement, (b) the enrichment and condensate formation of CIDE proteins to form LD fusion plates at LD-LD contact sites, (c) lipid transfer through lipid-permeable passageways within the fusion plates, and (d) the completion of LD fusion. Lastly, we outline CIDE-interacting proteins as regulatory factors, as well as their contribution in LD fusion.

    Abstract The growing recognition of a healthy lifestyle framework has promoted the development of novel functional foods or superfoods with abundant nutrients and health-promoting properties. Therefore, the influence of slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) as an elicitor on broccoli sprouts was investigated. The increase of electrolyte leakage percentage, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances levels and proline concentration indicated that the defense system of broccoli sprouts had responded to stress caused by SAEW. Furthermore, the antioxidant enzymes and secondary metabolites, phenolic compounds, were evaluated and revealed the enhancement of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, peroxidases, catalase, and ascorbate peroxidase) activities and phenolic compounds content in broccoli sprouts with SAEW treatment. The major groups of phenolic composition in broccoli sprouts were phenolic acids and flavonoids. The Folin-Ciocalteu index and antioxidant activity assay also proved the enhancement of antioxidant capacity of broccoli sprouts with SAEW treatment. Results from this study indicated that SAEW treatment could increase the antioxidant ability of broccoli sprouts.

    Abstract Parabolitobius sinensis a new species of the tachyporine genus Parabolitobius Li, Zhao Sakai, 2000 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) from the mountainous area of central China, is described and illustrated. It is compared to P. prolongatus (Sharp, 1888) and P. yezoensis Li, Zhao Sakai, 2000, the only two other species occurring in the eastern Palaearctic region. The new species differs mainly in the smaller body size, the strongly reduced hindwings in both sexes, the forms of the elytra, tergite VII, and male tergite and sternite VIII, and the unique configuration of the aedeagus.

    Abstract Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a severe, potentially life-threatening adverse drug reaction. It is an antibody-mediated process involving platelet activation. Heparin and low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) are routinely used in uremic patients undergoing hemodialysis. Here, we report a case of HIT that occurred in a hemodialysis patient after she switched from heparin to the LMWH nadroparin for anticoagulation during hemodialysis. The clinical features, incidence, mechanism, and treatment of HIT are discussed.

    Abstract This study examined volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from the combustion of seven typical biomass fuel types in a traditional stove, elevated kang, and biomass furnace and from the combustion of three types of coal in coal furnaces. The results revealed that emission factors (EFs) of VOCs emitted from combustion processes ranged from 48.8 ± 29.1 mg/kg (for anthracite combustion in an outdoor boiler) to 5700 ± 6040 mg/kg (for sesame straw combustion in a traditional stove). Changing the fuel type engendered a more significant EF reduction (82.7%) than changing the stove type (51.8%). The emitted VOCs (including oxygenated VOCs, OVOCs) can be ordered as follows (in descending order) in terms of proportion: OVOCs > alkenes > aromatic VOCs > alkanes > halo hydrocarbons > alkynes. These results indicate solid fuel combustion processes warrant attention because they produce high OVOC emissions. The ozone formation potential (OFP) values derived for VOCs emitted from solid fuel combustion ranged from 5.83 ± 0.72 to 1910 ± 1750 mg/kg. Clean fuel and clean stove technologies both exhibited >80% efficiency levels in reducing OFP emissions (e.g., 80.6% reduction for the optimal fuel; 89.4% reduction for a clean stove). Therefore, the difference between VOC emission profiles from different combustion technologies should not be ignored. This study also noted substantial differences between VOC emissions from residential combustion and industrial combustion. Accordingly, attention should be paid to the local characteristics of fuels and stoves and to VOC emissions from residential combustion.

    Abstract Pseudotachinus bilobus Yin and Li, new species, is described from the border of Guizhou and Guangxi, southern China, with habitus and diagnostic features illustrated. The new species is distinct, and can be readily separated from all other congeners by the complete lack of microsculpture on the dorsal surface of the body, strongly transverse elytra, and unique forms of male and female sternites VIII. In addition, P. assingi Schülke is recorded from a new locality in Yunnan. The latest identification key and distributional map of Pseudotachinus are modified to include the new data.
