    Abstract According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, tongue coatings reflect changes in the body. The goal of this study was to identify a metabolite or a set of metabolites capable of classifying characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes in erosive gastritis. In this study, we collected tongue coatings of patients with erosive gastritis with damp-heat syndrome (DHS), liver depression and qi stagnation syndrome (LDQSS), and healthy volunteers. Then, we analyzed the differences in metabolic characteristics between the two groups based on metabolomics. We identified 14 potential biomarkers related to the DHS group, and six metabolic pathways were enriched. The differential pathways included pyrimidine metabolism, pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, citrate cycle (TCA cycle), pyruvate metabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and purine metabolism. Similarly, in the LDQSS group, we identified 25 potential biomarkers and 18 metabolic pathways were enriched. The top five pathways were the TCA cycle, sphingolipid metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis, pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis, and the pentose phosphate pathway. In conclusion, the DHS group and the LDQSS group have different characteristics.

    Abstract To establish an accurate sea ice model is a tremendous challenge in Arctic acoustic research. Regarding this matter, a multilayered porous sea ice model is proposed based on Biot’s theory in this paper. Assuming that the model is sandwiched between the water and air half-spaces, the reflection coefficient of an incident wave from water into ice is deduced and contrasted with the solution calculated by impedance transfer method (ITM) to demonstrate the verification of the model. Furthermore, the influences of frequency, porosity and layering on reflection coefficients are analyzed. The results reveal that the reflection coefficient is closely associated with layering and porosity. Therefore, it is reasonable and necessary to simultaneously take the layering and porosity of ice into consideration. Different from the existing layered or porous ice model, the presented model synthesizes the layered characteristic and porous structure of ice, which better portrays the real condition of sea ice. It is an improvement of the broadly used stratified or porous sea ice model, which provides ideas for further sea ice modeling.

    Abstract Mastering the sound propagation law of low-frequency signals in the Arctic is a major frontier basic research demand to improve the level of detection, communication, and navigation technology. It is of practical significance for long-distance sound propagation and underwater target detection in the Arctic Ocean. Therefore, how to establish an effective model to study the characteristics of the acoustic field in the Arctic area has always been a hot topic in polar acoustic research. Aimed at solving this problem, a mathematical polar acoustic field model with an elastic seafloor is developed based on a range-dependent elastic parabolic equation theory. Moreover, this method is applied to study the characteristics of polar sound propagation for the first attempt. The validity and effectiveness of the method and model are verified by the elastic normal mode method. Simultaneously, the propagation characteristics of low-frequency signals are studied in a polar sound field from three aspects, which are seafloor parameters, sea depth, and ice thickness. The results show that the elastic parabolic equation method can be well utilized to the Arctic low-frequency acoustic field. The analysis of the influence factors of the polar sound field reveals the laws of sound transmission loss of low-frequency signals, which is of great significance to provide information prediction for underwater submarine target detection and target recognition.

    Abstract Abstract Background Hua-Zhuo-Jie-Du (HZJD), a Chinese herbal prescription consisting of 11 herbs, is commonly used in China to treat chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG). We aimed to determine the effect of HZJD on the microbiome-associated metabolic changes in CAG rats. Methods The CAG rat models were induced by 1-methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) combined with irregular fasting and 2% sodium salicylate, which was intragastrically administrated in fasted animals for 24 weeks. The CAG rats in the Chinese medicine (CM) group were administered a daily dose of 14.81 g/kg/day HZJD, and the vitacoenzyme (V) group were administered a daily dose of 0.08 g/kg/day vitacoenzyme. All animals were treated for 10 consecutive weeks, consecutively. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was used to assess the histopathological changes in the gastric tissues. An integrated approach based on liquid chromatograph mass spectrometer (LC-MS) metabolic profiling combined with 16S rRNA gene sequencing was carried out to assess the effects of HZJD on CAG rats. Spearman analysis was used to calculate the correlation coefficient between the different intestinal microbiota and the metabolites. Results The H&E results indicated that HZJD could improve the pathological condition of CAG rats. The LC–MS results indicated that HZJD could significantly improve 21 gastric mucosal tissue perturbed metabolites in CAG rats; the affected metabolites were found to be involved in multiple metabolic pathways, such as the central carbon metabolism in cancer. The results of 16S rRNA gene sequencing indicated that HZJD could regulate the diversity, microbial composition, and abundance of the intestinal microbiota of CAG rats. Following HZJD treatment, the relative abundance of Turicibacter was increased, and the relative abundance of Desulfococcus and Escherichia were decreased in the CM group when compared with the M group. Spearman analysis revealed that perturbed intestinal microbes had a strong correlation with differential metabolites, ...

    Abstract A novel triscatecholamide siderophore derivative, linear tribenglthin A (1), together with well known congener, bacillibactin (2) as well as mentioned monomer unit, benglthin were found in the secondary metabolites of a magrove-derived Bacillus subtilis subsp. spizizenii MMB-016. The structure of 1, determined by extensive 1D and 2D NMR studies has an unusual nonproteinogenic amino acid, Z-dehydrobutyrine (Z-Dhb) residue to reveal a putative lantibiotic synthetase function involved in the iterative biosynthesis of non-ribosomal peptide (NRP). Our 1H–15N correlation spectroscopy of 2 resulted in a correction of previous NH assignment of bacillibactin, as well as a new evaluation of DPPH free radical scavenging potential suggested antioxidant activity. Benglthin monomer was isolated as a ferrous complex (3), unveiling an interestingly higher affinity for iron Fe(Ⅱ) than trimers, 1 and 2. No dimeric forms were found.

    Abstract Background. Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is an important stage in the normal gastric mucosa’s transformation into gastric cancer. Huazhuojiedu decoction (HZJD), a Chinese herbal preparation, has proven clinically effective to treat CAG. However, few studies have explored the mechanism of HZJD in CAG treatment. Purpose. This study aimed to shed light on the mechanisms underlying HZJD decoction CAG treatment using a network pharmacology approach and experimental validation. Methods. The active components of HZJD decoction were obtained from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform. Their targets were predicted through the SwissTargetPrediction database. Disease targets were screened using the GeneCards database. The disease and drug prediction targets were intersected to select the common potential therapeutic targets, which then were input into the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes to build a protein-protein interaction network. The “herb-compound-target-disease” and the “herb-target-pathway” network diagrams were constructed in Cytoscape 3.3.0. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis of effective targets were performed using the Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery. Finally, the core targets were preliminarily verified by CAG rat model. The gastric mucosa’s histopathological changes were observed via hematoxylin-eosin staining. The expressions of MAPK1, AKT1, TNF, VEGFA, and EGFR were detected by western blot and quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Results. A total of 155 nodes, including 20 putative targets of HZJD decoction, were selected as core hubs based on topological importance and were closely associated with the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptotic process, and cancer-related pathways (AKT1, TNF, VEGFA, and EGFR) in CAG. Further animal experiments showed that the expression of AKT1 in CAG rats was significantly increased, ...

    Abstract In this study, Laponite RD (LRD) cross-linked hydrogels consisting of starch, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were prepared by freezing/thawing process and the influence of LRD content on structure and properties of hydrogels was investigated. FTIR showed a new structure of hydrogen bonding might result from cross-linking reactions between LRD and polymers. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that high degree of exfoliation of LRD clay layers had occurred during the preparation of hydrogels. The synergistic effect of physical cross-linking by freeze/thaw cycles and by LRD led to more porous, uniform and stable network, which was shown in SEM images. The melting temperature decreased and thermal stability got improved with the increase of LRD content. Reswelling ratios of hydrogels had the highest value when LRD content was 10%. Additionally, cadmium ion absorption capacity of the hydrogel was studied and the results showed that increasing the concentration of LRD increased absorption ratio and amount of Cd2+ ion in the solution. In a word, LRD could be used as a physical crosslinker and reinforced agent for starch-PVA based hydrogels and the formed hydrogels could be used as novel type and high capacity absorbent materials in heavy metal removing processes.

    Abstract Salidroside is an important plant-derived aromatic compound with diverse biological properties. Because of inadequate natural resources, the supply of salidroside is currently limited. In this work, we engineered the production of salidroside in yeast. First, the aromatic aldehyde synthase (AAS) from Petroselinum crispum was overexpressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae when combined with endogenous Ehrlich pathway to produce tyrosol from tyrosine. Glucosyltransferases from different resources were tested for ideal production of salidroside in the yeast. Metabolic flux was enhanced toward tyrosine biosynthesis by overexpressing pathway genes and eliminating feedback inhibition. The pathway genes were integrated into yeast chromosome, leading to a recombinant strain that produced 239.5 mg/L salidroside and 965.4 mg/L tyrosol. The production of salidroside and tyrosol reached up to 732.5 and 1394.6 mg/L, respectively, by fed-batch fermentation. Our work provides an alternative way for industrial large-scale production of salidroside and tyrosol from S. cerevisiae.
