The cy- totoxicity of Z. bungeanum oil on dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes was studied using an MTT （3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide） assay. The rat skin was employed to determine the percutaneous penetration enhancement effect of Z. bungeanum oil on hydrophilic and lipophilic model drugs, i.e., 5-fluorouracil and indomethacin. The secondary structure changes of the rat stratum comeum （SC） were determined using attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （ATR-FTIR）, and saturated solubilities and SC/vehicle partition coefficients of two model drugs with and without Z. bungeanum oil were also measured to un- derstand its related mechanisms of action. It was found that the half maximal inhibitory concentration （ICs0） values of Z. bungeanum oil were significantly lower in HaCaT and CCC-ESF-1 cell lines compared to the well-established and standard penetration enhancer Azone. The Z. bungeanum oil at various concentrations effectively facilitated the percutaneous penetration of two model drugs across the rat skin. In addition, the mechanisms of permeation en- hancement by Z. bungeanum oil could be explained with saturated solubility, SC/vehicle partition coefficient, and secondary structure changes of SC.展开更多

The aim of the present study is to investigate and compare the skin penetration enhancement effect of Z. bungeanum oil and its main components on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） active components. Toxicities of Z. bungeanum oil and three selected terpene compounds （terpinen-4-ol, 1,8-cineole, and limonene） in epidermal keratinocytes （HaCaT） and dermal flbroblast （CCC-ESF-1） cell lines were measured using an MTT （3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide） assay. Five model drugs in TCM external preparations, namely osthole （OT）, tetramethylpyrazine （TMP）, ferulic acid （FA）, puerarin （PR）, and geniposide （GP）, which were selected based on their lipophilicity denoted by IogKo^w, were tested using in vitro permeation studies in which vertical Franz diffusion ceils and rat abdominal skin were employed. The secondary structure changes of skin stratum corneum （SC） and drug thermodynamic activities were investigated to understand their mechanisms of action using Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） spectroscopy and saturation solubility studies, respectively. It was found that Z. bungeanum oil showed lower toxicities in both HaCaT cells and CCC-ESF-1 cells compared with three terpene compounds used alone. The enhancement permeation capacities by all tested agents were in the following increasing order： terpinen-4-ol=1,8-cineole〈limonene〈Z, bungeanum oil. The mechanisms of permeation enhancement suggested that these enhancers promoted the skin permeation of drugs mainly by affecting SC lipids. These results indicated that Z. bungeanum oil exhibited better performance in enhancing the skin permeation of active components in TCM preparations.展开更多

In this study, we identified 270 MYB genes in ZBM and divided them into four subfamilies. The R2 R3-MYB(ZbMYB) category contained 251 genes and was classified into 33 subfamilies according to their phylogenetic results and sequence similarity. These subfamilies included 24 subgroups containing both MYBs of ZBM plants and AtMYBs, and nine subgroups containing only ZBM MYBs or AtMYBs. ZbMYBs with similar functions clustered into the same subgroup, indicating functional conservation. The subcellular localization analysis predicted that most ZbMYB genes were found in the nucleus. The transposed duplications appeared to play a major role in the expansion of the MYB gene family in ZBM. Through phylogenetic analysis and transcriptome profiling, it was found that 28 ZbMYB genes may regulate the biosynthesis of flavonoids in ZBM, and these genes expression presented distinct temporal and spatial expression patterns. In different fruit development stages of ZBM, the expression patterns of EVM0042160 and EVM0033809 genes obtained by qRT-PCR analysis are very similar to the flavonoid and anthocyanin content curves in ZBM. Further correlation analysis showed that the content of flavonoids in different fruit development stages and the transcript abundance levels of 28 ZbMYB genes have different degrees of correlation relationship. These results indicated that the ZbMYB genes might be involved in the flavonoid metabolic pathway. This comprehensive and systematic analysis of MYB family genes provided a solid foundation for further functional analysis of MYB TFs in ZBM.展开更多

文摘Biofumigation is an environmentally friendly strategy used to control nematodes and plant diseases.The volatile oil of Zanthoxylum bungeanum has high insecticidal and antibacterial activity.However,it is not known if the seed of Z.bungeanum is a suitable material for biofumigation to control southern root-knot nematodes(SRKN)on tomato,and how it may regulate the soil bacterial community structure.We used pot experiments in the greenhouse to determine the effects of Z.bungeanum seeds on SRKN,plant growth parameters,soil physicochemical and microbial characteristics.A total of 26 volatile components,including nematicidally active substances,were identified from Z.bungeanum seeds.Z.bungeanum seed biofumigation significantly reduced the SRKN population by 88.89%and 81.55%on the 50th and 100th day after transplanting,respectively.Compared to the control,the total soluble sugar,soluble solids,soluble protein,titratable acid,root activity and the fruit yield per tomato plant increased significantly.The content of soil alkali-hydrolyzed nitrogen,available potassium and the soil enzyme activities were also significantly increased.The soil bacterial diversity and the co-occurrence network complexity were increased by Z.bungeanum seed biofumigation.Relativelymore keystone OTUs in biofumigation soil had potential plant growth-promoting capabilities.The function of Z.bungeanum seed increasing tomato production in SRKN-infected soil depends on directly killing SRKN and improving soil properties.These results indicate that Z.bungeanum seed can be used as both a nematicide and a high quality organic fertilizer in tomato production.
文摘为探究不同产地的大红袍花椒对麻婆豆腐香气的影响,试验以不同产地的大红袍花椒制备的麻婆豆腐为研究对象,采用电子鼻、捕集阱顶空-气质联用仪(Trap head space-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry,HS-Trap-GC-MS)技术结合雷达图、主成分分析、OPLS-DA和OAV进行分析。电子鼻分析结果表明,5个样品在整体气味轮廓上存在明显差异;GC-MS分析共检测到101种挥发性物质,5个样品(A、B、C、D、E)的含量分别为93.58%、97.53%、97.62%、94.80%、91.64%,烃类、醛类、醇类和酯类是样品共有的主要挥发性物质;β-月桂烯、芳樟醇、3-甲基丁醛、(E,E)-2,4-癸二烯醛分别是大红袍花椒和豆腐贡献给麻婆豆腐的主要共有挥发性物质;GC-MS结合OAV分析表明,β-月桂烯、D-柠檬烯、正辛醛、壬醛、(E,E)-2,4-癸二烯醛、芳樟醇、3-甲基丁醛对麻婆豆腐香气的形成有重要贡献;OAV结合OPLS-DA表明,通过VIP值筛选出的22种物质(以烃类、醛类和醇类物质为主)是样品气味差异的主要来源。试验结果表明不同产地的大红袍花椒对麻婆豆腐香气的形成有重要影响。
