[Method] The amino acid contents of fermented and unfermented the leaves of large-leaf Pu’er tea variety produced in Yunnan Mengku, were measured before and after the treatment with high-intensity pulsed electric field （HPEF）. [Result] The difference of amino acid contents was notable between fermented and unfermented tea leaves produced in the same year. The amino acid content of unfermented tea leaves was larger than that in fermented tea leaves. The amino acid content in tea leaves decreased over time during storage. HPEF treatment under al the conditions improved the amino acid content in tea leaves. [Conclusion] This experiment provides theoretical foundation for the application of HPEF in processing of Pu’er tea leaves.展开更多

To study the anti-diabetic potential of LYT, the present study further investigated the preventive effects and mechanisms of action of LYT administration on diabetes and diabetic nephropathy in high-fat diet plus streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Results showed that LYT infusions(1/100 and 1/50, m/V)as drinking fluid for 4 weeks reduced diabetic polydipsia and polyuria, enhanced glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, and lowered fasting blood glucose level. The underlying mechanisms involve downregulation of gluconeogenesis(lower protein levels of TXNIP and FBP and enzyme activity of FBP), upregulation of lipid catabolism(higher protein levels of CPT-1α and PPARα), downregulation of lipogenesis(lower protein level of SREBP-1), and modification of the structure and abundance of gut microbiota to modulate metabolic homeostasis. Moreover, LYT administration prevented diabetic nephropathy, possibly due to reduced glucose-caused osmotic diuresis and lowered levels of renal PKC-β2, NLRP3 as well as membrane PKC-α, AQP2 and glycosylated AQP2 proteins. Taken together, LYT exhibits the activities in alleviating diabetic symptoms, ameliorating glucose and lipid dysmetabolism and fatty liver, and preventing diabetic nephropathy in diabetic mice. These activities may be explored for the prevention and treatment of diabetes in humans.展开更多

[Methods] The active substances of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea were extracted by hot-water extraction, and the freeze-dried powder of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea was obtained by freeze drying. The antibacterial activity of the extract was preliminarily confirmed using the Oxford cup method, and its antimicrobial spectrum was analyzed using 14 strains. A xylene-induced mouse auricle swelling test was carried out to detect the swelling inhibition rate of the extract and analyze its in-vitro detumescent activity. Then, the antioxidant activity of the extract was identified through a DPPH free radical scavenging capacity test and a ferric reducing antioxidant power assay. [Results] The extract had significant inhibitory effects on various bacteria. The extract could effectively inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus hirae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis , and other strains. The diameter of the inhibition zone increased with the increase of sample concentration. The extract had a significant inhibitory effect on auricle swelling induced by xylene in mice. When the concentration of the drug reached 1.0 mg/mL, its inhibition rate on mouse auricle swelling reached 55.2% ( P <0.01), slightly lower than the swelling inhibition rate of the aspirin group (66.52%, P <0.01). The results of the antioxidant test showed that large-leaf yellow tea extract also had strong activity. Within the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL, its DPPH radical scavenging rate increased with the increase of sample concentration. Within the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL, its DPPH radical scavenging rate increased with the increase of sample concentration. When the concentration reached 1.0 mg/mL, the scavenging rate reached 69.75%. The Fe 3+ -reduction capacity of the extract also increased with the increase of sample concentration within the concentration range of 0.1-2.5 mg/mL. When the concentration was 2.5 mg/mL, the reducing power of the extract reached 1.43±0.04. However, its DPPH free radical scavenging rate and reducing power were slightly lower than the capacity of V C at the same concentration. [Conclusions] The extract of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea obtained by hot-water extraction had strong activity in many aspects, including inhibiting the growth of various microbes, subsiding swelling in vitro and resisting oxidation. These experimental results provide certain guiding significance for the basic research of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea extract, as well as experimental data support for the subsequent development of functional foods and drugs of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea.展开更多

文摘Tea plant(Camellia sinensis(L.)O.Kuntze)is a cold-sensitive leaf-harvesting crop whose growth,yield,and processed tea quality are all inhibited by low temperatures.Therefore,identifying the regulatory genes involved in tea plant growth and freezing tolerance is crucial for genetic improvement.WRKY transcription factors regulate various plant processes,including growth and development,stress responses,and metabolite biosynthesis.However,the molecular network through which WRKY coordinates these pathways in tea plants remains unclear.In this study,we revealed that CsWRKY57L,a cold-inducible WRKY IIc subfamily member,positively regulated freezing tolerance by directly promoting flavonoid accumulation in tea plants.Transient suppression of CsWRKY57L weakened the freezing tolerance of tea plants by reducing flavonoid content and suppressing the C-repeat-binding factor(CBF)-cold-responsive(COR)gene pathway.In contrast,heterologous overexpression of CsWRKY57L in Arabidopsis had the opposite effect.Additionally,overexpression of CsWRKY57L inhibited reproductive development and accelerated senescence in Arabidopsis.Interaction analysis revealed that CsWRKY57L directly binds to the promoters of CsSWEET1a,CsSWEET15,and AtSWEET15,which encode sugar transporters essential for plant reproductive development,and inhibits their transcription.Overall,the study revealed a dual role of CsWRKY57L in promoting freezing tolerance via flavonoid biosynthesis and inhibiting reproductive development by regulating SWEETs expression.This study uncovers a novel mechanism whereby CsWRKY57L coordinately regulates both stress responses and growth in tea plants,providing a molecular basis for breeding low-temperature-tolerant varieties with restricted reproductive development.

文摘Heat stress reduces theanine content in tea plants,but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear.In this study,a temperature gradient treatment(20℃,25℃,30℃,and 35℃)was performed to unveil the effect of heat stress on biosynthesis and accumulation of theanine.We found that heat stress induced metabolic changes,characterized by decreased theanine content and increased catechin levels.In addition,heat stress up-regulated the expression of the class B heat shock transcription factor gene CsHSFB2c,while significantly suppressing the transcription of key theanine biosynthetic genes CsTS1 and CsGS1.Functional studies showed that silencing CsHSFB2c increased theanine content,while its overexpression significantly decreased theanine levels.Consistent with these changes,silencing CsHSFB2c upregulated the expression of CsTS1 and CsGS1,while overexpression of CsHSFB2c downregulated their expression.Yeast one-hybrid(Y1H)and dual-luciferase reporter gene(Dual-LUC)assays showed that CsHSFB2c directly binds to the promoters of CsTS1 and CsGS1 and inhibits their expression.These results demonstrate that CsHSFB2c mediates heat-induced suppression of theanine biosynthesis by directly inhibiting the expression of CsTS1 and CsGS1.This study provides a theoretical basis for improving the heat resistance and quality of tea plants via molecular breeding.

文摘[Objective] This study aimed to test the effects of high-intensity pulsed electric field on the amino acid content in Pu’er tea leaves. [Method] The amino acid contents of fermented and unfermented the leaves of large-leaf Pu’er tea variety produced in Yunnan Mengku, were measured before and after the treatment with high-intensity pulsed electric field （HPEF）. [Result] The difference of amino acid contents was notable between fermented and unfermented tea leaves produced in the same year. The amino acid content of unfermented tea leaves was larger than that in fermented tea leaves. The amino acid content in tea leaves decreased over time during storage. HPEF treatment under al the conditions improved the amino acid content in tea leaves. [Conclusion] This experiment provides theoretical foundation for the application of HPEF in processing of Pu’er tea leaves.

文摘Our previous study found that large-leaf yellow tea(LYT)had interesting hypoglycemic activity in high-fat diet-induced obese mice and highly safety in healthy mice. To study the anti-diabetic potential of LYT, the present study further investigated the preventive effects and mechanisms of action of LYT administration on diabetes and diabetic nephropathy in high-fat diet plus streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Results showed that LYT infusions(1/100 and 1/50, m/V)as drinking fluid for 4 weeks reduced diabetic polydipsia and polyuria, enhanced glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, and lowered fasting blood glucose level. The underlying mechanisms involve downregulation of gluconeogenesis(lower protein levels of TXNIP and FBP and enzyme activity of FBP), upregulation of lipid catabolism(higher protein levels of CPT-1α and PPARα), downregulation of lipogenesis(lower protein level of SREBP-1), and modification of the structure and abundance of gut microbiota to modulate metabolic homeostasis. Moreover, LYT administration prevented diabetic nephropathy, possibly due to reduced glucose-caused osmotic diuresis and lowered levels of renal PKC-β2, NLRP3 as well as membrane PKC-α, AQP2 and glycosylated AQP2 proteins. Taken together, LYT exhibits the activities in alleviating diabetic symptoms, ameliorating glucose and lipid dysmetabolism and fatty liver, and preventing diabetic nephropathy in diabetic mice. These activities may be explored for the prevention and treatment of diabetes in humans.

文摘[Objectives] To provide experimental basis for the effective development and utilization of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea resources and the screening of safe and effective active ingredients of large-leaf yellow tea. [Methods] The active substances of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea were extracted by hot-water extraction, and the freeze-dried powder of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea was obtained by freeze drying. The antibacterial activity of the extract was preliminarily confirmed using the Oxford cup method, and its antimicrobial spectrum was analyzed using 14 strains. A xylene-induced mouse auricle swelling test was carried out to detect the swelling inhibition rate of the extract and analyze its in-vitro detumescent activity. Then, the antioxidant activity of the extract was identified through a DPPH free radical scavenging capacity test and a ferric reducing antioxidant power assay. [Results] The extract had significant inhibitory effects on various bacteria. The extract could effectively inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus hirae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis , and other strains. The diameter of the inhibition zone increased with the increase of sample concentration. The extract had a significant inhibitory effect on auricle swelling induced by xylene in mice. When the concentration of the drug reached 1.0 mg/mL, its inhibition rate on mouse auricle swelling reached 55.2% ( P <0.01), slightly lower than the swelling inhibition rate of the aspirin group (66.52%, P <0.01). The results of the antioxidant test showed that large-leaf yellow tea extract also had strong activity. Within the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL, its DPPH radical scavenging rate increased with the increase of sample concentration. Within the concentration range of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL, its DPPH radical scavenging rate increased with the increase of sample concentration. When the concentration reached 1.0 mg/mL, the scavenging rate reached 69.75%. The Fe 3+ -reduction capacity of the extract also increased with the increase of sample concentration within the concentration range of 0.1-2.5 mg/mL. When the concentration was 2.5 mg/mL, the reducing power of the extract reached 1.43±0.04. However, its DPPH free radical scavenging rate and reducing power were slightly lower than the capacity of V C at the same concentration. [Conclusions] The extract of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea obtained by hot-water extraction had strong activity in many aspects, including inhibiting the growth of various microbes, subsiding swelling in vitro and resisting oxidation. These experimental results provide certain guiding significance for the basic research of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea extract, as well as experimental data support for the subsequent development of functional foods and drugs of Huoshan large-leaf yellow tea.
