In vitro study on the hypoglycemic potential of Nicotiana tabacum leaf extracts

Bangladesh Journal of Pharmacology, 2014
Inhibition of some carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes is one of the modes of action of antihyperglycemic agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro inhibition of α-amylase and α-glucosidase by extracts of N. tabacum leaf.

Root exudates mediate microorganisms to improve rhizosphere nutrient availability and crop productivity under straw mulching and slow‐release nitrogen fertilizer

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudates play a key role as signals and nutrients in mediating plant–microbe communication. However, critical knowledge gaps remain regarding how root exudates mediate soil–microbe–plant interactions to regulate crop yield under long‐term straw mulching combined ...

Depth‐dependent mechanisms regulate accumulation of plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues under long‐term nitrogen addition in a semiarid grassland

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues constitute the primary sources of soil organic carbon (SOC) in grassland ecosystems. However, their differential responses to chronic nitrogen (N) enrichment and the depth‐dependent mechanisms governing their accumulation remain ...

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...

MOESM1 of A novel GH10 xylanase from Penicillium sp. accelerates saccharification of alkaline-pretreated bagasse by an enzyme from recombinant Trichoderma reesei expressing Aspergillus β-glucosidase

, 2017
Additional file 1: Figure S1. Multiple alignments and phygogenetic tree of PspXyn10, PspXyn10 orthologs and TrXyn3. (a) Multiple alignments of the PspXyn10, PspXyn10 orthologs and TrXyn3. The amino acid sequence of PspXyn10 was compared with those of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase from Penicillium brasilianum (OOQ87260), endo-1,4-beta-xylanase D from ...

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum

Insect Science, EarlyView.
RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Sexual Safety Signals of Common Antidiabetic Drugs: Insights From FAERS Disproportionality Analysis

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Erectile dysfunction is a prevalent and distressing complication of diabetes mellitus that markedly affects quality of life in male patients. Although the role of diabetes in erectile dysfunction is well‐established, potential drug‐induced sexual dysfunction associated with commonly prescribed antidiabetic medications remains ...
