Phytochemical Characterization and In vitro Effects of Extracts Produced from Different Maytenus ilicifolia Matrices on the Activity of Intestinal Disaccharidases

Introduction: Maytenus ilicifolia Mart. Ex Reiss, Celastraceae, popularly known as “espinheira-santa” is traditionally used to treat gastrointestinal disorders and diabetes. However, studies proving efficacy for the treatment of diabetes are scarce. Furthermore, it is believed that the presence of chemical constituents responsible for pharmacological activity may be affected by environmental variations. Thus, the objective of this research was to evaluate the occurrence of variations in chemical composition, total polyphenol content, total tannin, antioxidant and antidiabetic activity in vitro for different matrices of M. ilicifolia. Methodology: Chemical characterization was determined by CG-MS. Total polyphenol and total tannin contents were determined by spectrophotometer readings using standard gallic acid and tannic acid curves, respectively. In vitro antioxidant potential was determined by reducing the DPPH radical. In vitro antidiabetic activity was determined by inhibiting intestinal disaccharidases (maltase, sucrase and lactase) from a commercial glucose measurement kit produced by incubating intestinal homogenates with their substrates. Results and Discussion: The results indicated the presence of variations in the chemical constituents and their concentrations, the total polyphenol content, total tannins and the in vitro antioxidant activity among the different tested extracts of M. ilicifolia. It is believed that these variations may be responsible for the differences found in inhibition of disaccharidases for the three intestinal enzymes. Conclusion: Extracts 116 and 122 showed the best results in disaccharidase inhibition, however further studies are needed to investigate the results and reproducibility in vivo.
Character Association and Path Analyses in Sweet Potato

ABSTRACT Sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. ] is a highly heterozygous cross-pollinated crop in which many of the traits show continuous variation. Selection for root yield, which is a polygenic trait, often leads to changes in other characters. Studies on the entire spectrum of the variability are necessary to acquire knowledge on inheritance patterns of plant characters to develop suitable varieties for yield. A study was conducted using 30 sweet potato genotypes to investigate associations among traits and their direct and indirect influences on yield to understand how intercharacter relationships influence tuber yield. The genotypes were characterized based on response to 10 morphological and 18 quantitative characters. Correlation and path coefficient analyses were carried out for 18 characters of yield and its components. Character association indicated that tuber yield was positively and significantly associated with number of tubers per plant, tuber yield per plant, β-carotene content, vine length, vine internodal length, leaf area, and tuber diameter. Path analysis indicated that number of branches per plant, root length, root yield per plant, and starch content had direct effects on tuber yield·per hectare. Number of branches per plant, root length, root yield per plant, starch content, reducing sugars, and nonreducing sugars had positive, direct effects on root yield. Root dry matter content had a negative, direct effect and β-carotene had a positive, direct effect on root yield. The remaining characters had negligible to low or moderate indirect effects through other component characters. The high direct effect of these traits appeared to be the main factors for their strong association with root yield.
Ionic combating mechanisms and their comparative effects on seed hardening under simulated supra-optimal environmental conditions

Heat extremes and limited moisture are two of the most dominant environmental factors impacting stand establishment of rainfed sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench). Hardening is the process of exposing plants to gradual levels of stress and acclimation to foster better response to post-treatment stress factors. Three experiments were carried out under phytotron and germination cabinet conditions to test the effects of osmotic soaking of sorghum seeds with sodium chloride (NaCl) on germination and growth under simulated heat stress. The hypothesis was that the NaCl treatment forms an acclimation to stress by inducing hormonal responses to ionic toxicity caused by salt. This acclimation would lead to a lowered degree of response when the seed is exposed to future stress; namely, heat and/or drought. Independent variables included NaCl concentration, treatment duration, storage and genotype, whereas germination and growth were dependent variables. Further experiments tested various methods of achieving the initial acclimation “signaling” whilst reducing ionic toxicity through combating ions. Longer soaking treatment durations (2–3 days) and higher NaCl concentrations (16 g NaCl l) were detrimental to germination in comparison to lower concentrations (8 g NaCl l) and shorter durations (1 day). An interaction between concentration and duration of treatment existed where high concentrations performed better at lower treatment durations and vice versa. Combining 10 g NaCl l with 5 g calcium sulphate l to combat ionic toxicity produced a greater advancement of germination than NaCl alone. Drying duration of seeds did not affect subsequent germination nor did storage for 10 days to 1 month. The effects of osmotic conditioning are discussed and could have potential for improving sorghum success rates in harsh arid environments.
Antarctic Bottom Water and North Atlantic Deep Water in CMIP6 models

Abstract. Deep and bottom water formation are crucial components of the global ocean circulation, yet they were poorly represented in the previous generation of climate models. We here quantify biases in Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) and North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) formation, properties, transport, and global extent in 35 climate models that participated in the latest Climate Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). Several CMIP6 models are correctly forming AABW via shelf processes, but 28 models in the Southern Ocean and all 35 models in the North Atlantic form deep and bottom water via open-ocean deep convection too deeply, too often, and/or over too large an area. Models that convect the least form the most accurate AABW but the least accurate NADW. The four CESM2 models with their overflow parameterisation are among the most accurate models. In the Atlantic, the colder the AABW, the stronger the abyssal overturning at 30∘ S, and the further north the AABW layer extends. The saltier the NADW, the stronger the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), and the further south the NADW layer extends. In the Indian and Pacific oceans in contrast, the fresher models are the ones which extend the furthest regardless of the strength of their abyssal overturning, most likely because they are also the models with the weakest fronts in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. There are clear improvements since CMIP5: several CMIP6 models correctly represent or parameterise Antarctic shelf processes, fewer models exhibit Southern Ocean deep convection, more models convect at the right location in the Labrador Sea, bottom density biases are reduced, and abyssal overturning is more realistic. However, more improvements are required, e.g. by generalising the use of overflow parameterisations or by coupling to interactive ice sheet models, before deep and bottom water formation, and hence heat and carbon storage, are represented accurately.
ZnO NANOPARTICLES: SURFACE AND X-RAY PROFILE ANALYSIS

Herewith, we describe the synthesis of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles employing the precipitation approach and annealing it at various temperatures. The variations in the size and morphology of the nanostructures due to the temperature rise were probed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM),Energy Dispersive X-rays (EDX),BET Surface Analysis, Fourier Transformation Infrared (FTIR), and Thermogravimetric analysis (TG-DTA). The X-ray diffraction (XRD)graphs revealed a pure wurtzite structured ZnO nanoparticles. The Williamson–Hall X-ray peak profile analysis was employed to verify the crystallite sizes and lattice strain (ɛ) contributions to the broadening of the obtained nanoparticles XRD peaks. The data illustrated that the crystallite size calculated by Scherer’s equation, Williamson–Hall models, and the particle size from SEM are positively correlated. The SEM images of the ZnO nanoparticles demonstrated semispherical shape that transformed to spherical aggregates with annealing temperature rise. BET Surface area analysis, confirmed the formation of a mesoporous ZnO with 25.3641 to 8.7781 m 2 /g surface area and 16.03 to 25.03 nm mean diameter as the temperature range was increased from275°C to 600°C.Finally, the FTIR findings verified the ZnO formation as indicated by the existence of Zn-O stretching vibration at 443.96 cm -1 .
Haemotrophic mycoplasma: review of aetiology and prevalence

Haemoplasma, composed of Eperythrozoon and Haemobartonella, is a widespread agent infecting different vertebrate animals as well as humans. It is a small, pleomorphic bacterium that is an obligative parasite of erythrocytes in which it causes deformity and haemolysis. Clinical symptoms include anaemia, icterus, acidosis and fever. The prevalence of haemoplasma infection has been demonstrated in several countries. Some possible routes of transmission have been suggested, but all require further validation. Host-specific cross-transmission has been shown by sequence alignment analysis.
Population Dynamics of the Southern Green Stink Bug (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) In Relation to Soybean Phenology

The effect of planting date, cultivar, and state of soybean development on Nezara viridula (L.) population levels was determined by using five cultivars from different maturity groups planted on four dates ca. 2 weeks apart. Factors such as generation overlap, plant growth stage preferences for adult feeding and oviposition, and sex ratio fluctuations were also discussed in terms of soybean phenology. Oviposition by N. viridula was initiated during late vegetative stages of soybean, with peak oviposition occurring between R3 (beginning pod development) and early R5 (beginning podfill). More females than males were found in the earlier stages of soybean development. Third-generation southern green stink bugs developed in the early maturing cultivars, and fourth and fifth generations in the later-maturing cultivars. Stink bug population levels increased significantly during R3 and R4 (pod development). Greatest increases were observed during R5, and population levels generally peaked during R6 (late podfill). Cultivar and planting date significantly affected N. viridula population levels, but stage of soybean development was found to be the predominant factor affecting N. viridula populations in soybean.
Yeast Autolysis During Champagne Aging

The yeast autolysis in Champagne wine during three years of aging has been followed. Autolysis may be defined by a loss of dry matter, a decrease in the percentage of protein and nucleic acids in this dry matter, and by an intracellular proteolytic activity. The yeast strain and its preparation influence autolysis in wine. Some wine constituents have also been studied, in particular, nitrogenous compounds whose concentrations increase during aging.
Recent shoreline changes in the Volta River delta, West Africa: the roles of natural processes and human impacts§

The Volta River delta developed as an asymmetric lobe in a tectonic offset on the coast of Ghana. The delta comprises a large curvilinear spit that widens in its central portion due to the adjunction of successive sandy beach ridges. The appearance of a distinct spit, in lieu of a continuous barrier from the present mouth of the Volta River to the Bight of Benin coast, may be an outgrowth of a natural change in the location of the mouth of the Volta. The spit marks a segmentation of the unique sand drift cell that hitherto prevailed on this bight coast. Spit growth has been accompanied by a wave of erosion over the last century of the immediate downdrift sector of the bight coast, endangering the town of Keta. Erosion since the 1960s may have been aggravated by the construction of the Akosombo hydropower dam. The tip of the spit has recently welded to the shoreline, thus assuring resumption of sand supply from the Volta towards the rest of this formerly sand-starved sector of the bight coast. Blocking of sediment by the Akosombo Dam is, in due course, likely to become the overarching factor in delta shoreline stability.

The Effectiveness of the Native Training Model Designed Based on Lazarus Theory and Behavioral Planning Theory in the Consolidation of Family Functioning: A case study

Introduction: Recently, consolidation of family functioning is considered as one of the most important solutions for elevating and strengthening marital life. Therefore, benefiting from family strengthening approaches is so truly significant. This research aims at investigating the effectiveness of the native model based on Lazarus theory and behavioral planning theory on the consolidation of family functioning. Method: This research is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design and control group. The population includes all the couples referring to counseling and psychotherapy centers of Yazd Province, in Iran, 2019. Purposive sampling was used to select 34 couples who have the inclusion criteria, and they were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The couples answered the family consolidation questionnaire designed by Movahed et al. The experimental group received 11 sessions of interventions extracted from the localized Lazarus model and behavioral planning theory. Finally, data analysis was done by SPSS version 16 and an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). The significance level of research was considered to be α=0.05 Findings: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the estimated mean score of the family consolidation in the experimental and control groups. Also, the findings suggest that compared with the control group, the posttest scores of the performance, problem-solving, relationship, emotional involvement, emotional support, role play, behavioral control, media, and superstition have been improved in the experimental group. This significant difference results from the training intervention. However, the variable of religious beliefs has not changed significantly. Conclusion: The training intervention done by the model has developed based on Lazarus theory and behavioral planning theory which can consolidate the family functioning.
Applicable Cost Modeling of LTE-Advanced and IEEE 802.11ac based Heterogeneous Wireless Access Networks

—In this paper, we propose applicable and comparative cost-capacity analysis of the heterogeneous wireless networks in order to determine the most cost effective radio network deployment strategies as a function of an extreme demand levels of even more than 100 GB per user and month. We perform the modeling by considering of the unit cost drivers relevant for the various base station classes which provide different coverage and high capacity performance, coming with the Long Term Evolution Release 10 (LTE-Advanced) radio access technology or IEEE 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard. Considering different amounts of available bandwidth in the 800 MHz and 2.6 GHz bands, the key finding is that the small cell solutions like femto cells and Wi-Fi are more cost efficient when new macro base station sites need to be deployed or when very high demand levels need to be satisfied. In all other evaluated cases, the importance of the spectrum size comes to the highest level together with the introduction of the LTE-Advanced carrier aggregation functionality. Also, we evaluate the economic gains of a joint deployment of femto/Wi-Fi sites from one side and macrocells from other side. We determine that instead of investing in additional spectrum or deploying denser macro network, mobile operators could compensate the indoor wall penetration losses by deploying different number of femto sites per floor or user per femto site, for still satisfactory level of QoS.
Lilly’s Model for Steady-State Tropical Cyclone Intensity and Structure

This study revisits the axisymmetric tropical cyclone (TC) theory from D. K. Lilly’s unpublished manuscript (Lilly model) and compares it to axisymmetric TC simulations from a nonhydrostatic cloud model. Analytic solutions of the Lilly model are presented through simplifying assumptions. Sensitivity experiments varying the sea surface, boundary layer and tropopause temperatures, and the absolute angular momentum (M) at some outer radius in the Lilly model show that these variations influence the radial structure of the tangential wind profile V(r) at the boundary layer top. However, these parameter variations have little effect on the inner-core normalized tangential wind, V(r/rm)/Vm, where Vm is the maximum tangential wind at radius rm. The outflow temperature T∞ as a function of M (or saturation entropy s*) is found to be the only input that changes the normalized tangential wind radial structure in the Lilly model. In contrast with the original assumption of the Lilly model that T∞(s*) is determined by the environment, it is argued here that T∞(s*) is determined by the TC interior flow under the environmental constraint of the tropopause height. The present study shows that the inner-core tangential wind radial structure from the Lilly model generally agrees well with nonhydrostatic cloud model simulations except in the eyewall region where the Lilly model tends to underestimate the tangential winds due to its balanced-dynamics assumptions. The wind structure in temperature–radius coordinates from the Lilly model can largely reproduce the numerical simulation results. Though the Lilly model is based on a number of simplifying assumptions, this paper shows its utility in understanding steady-state TC intensity and structure.
Remodeling miniature proteins that target EVH1 domains with high affinity and specificity

Remodeling miniature proteins that target EVH1 domains with high affinity and specificity Jennifer Hareta Holtzman 2008 The miniature protein aPP has demonstrated utility as a starting point for creating designer ligands that bind with high affinity and specificity to shallow protein-protein interaction surfaces that are not amenable to targeting using small molecules. A designed aPP-based ligand for EVH1 domains, pGolemi, was obtained by substituting residues from the binding epitope of Listeria monocytogenes ActA onto the type II polyproline helix of aPP (Golemi-Kotra et al., 2004). In addition to being well folded, pGolemi is the highest affinity ligand yet reported for the class I EVH1 domain of the actin binding protein Mena, and it exhibits remarkable specificity between the EVH1 domains of Mena and two paralogs, VASP and Evl. Scanning mutagenesis of pGolemi provided a detailed description of the roles of individual residues in binding affinity, specificity, and secondary structure, and revealed a correlation between paralog specificity and defective actin-based motility of L. monocytogenes in the presence of miniature protein variants (Holtzman et al., 2007). This data informed the design of a phage display library for the selection of pGolemi variants that exhibit reversed specificity between the EVH1 domains of VASP and Mena. Selection for VASP EVH1 affinity was sufficient to identify library members with high affinity (Kd ~0.9 – 12.6 M) for VASP EVH1 and only moderate affinity (Kd ~ 10 54 M) for Mena EVH1, without the benefit of a negative section step. It was found that the libraryselected peptides do not compete with a canonical ligand for EVH1 domains, suggesting that they bind an orthogonal site. These new miniature protein ligands could serve as chemical genetic tools with broad potential applications for studying the control processes involved in random or directed actin-based motility in systems such as fibroblast crawling, leukocyte chemotaxis, and neuronal growth cone guidance.
