Our study offers a novel sn-1,3 specific lipase MAJ1 from marine member Janibacter sp. strain HTCC2649 for preparing long-medium-long (LML) type structured triacylglycerols (TAGs). Firstly, the resin ECR1030 was selected as a suitable support for the immobilization of lipase MAJ1. An efficient synthesis of LML-type structured TAGs by the immobilized lipase MAJ1-catalyzed interesterification of methyl palmitate and tricaprylin was studied in a solvent-free system. The reaction conditions, including substrate molar ratio, temperature and enzyme loading, were optimized. Under the optimum conditions (immobilized lipase MAJ1 of 45 U/g, substrate molar ratio of 41, temperature of 35 °C, reaction time of 24 h), the structured TAGs with double long chains (DLCST) were obtained in a yield of 44.3 mol%. Secondly, multi-dimensional mass spectrometry-based shotgun lipidomics (MDMS-SL) was employed to quantify each TAG positional isomer in DLCST. The content of 1,3-dipalmitoyl-2-capryloyl-sn-glycerol in DLCST was 97.6% determined by the MDMS-SL technology.Leaf removal applied in the upper canopy of modified vertical shooting positioning trellis system has been proposed as an effective strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming on grape and wine quality. In this study, we removed the upper leaves of Cabernet Sauvignon canopy in a semi-arid climate for three consecutive years (2018-2020). About one-third of the whole canopy leaves were removed at the beginning of véraison (LR1) and post-véraison (LR2). All leaf removal treatments included two schemes (i) leaf removal in the same vines in all vintages to investigate the carry-over effects (1-LR1 and 1-LR2); (ii) leaf removal in different vines in each vintage as repeated experiments among vintages (2-LR1 and 2-LR2). Results showed that leaf removal treatments significantly decreased total soluble solids accumulation in grapes without affecting titratable acidity and pH. LR1 treatments could delay ripening to 6.6 days on average, which was 2.6 days longer than LR2 treatments. LR treatments did not affect the yield but decreased soluble sugar content in canes. Leaves net assimilation rate showed no compensation for the loss of leaves. For phenolic composition, LR treatments increased flavonol concentration in both wines and grapes while had inconsistent effects on anthocyanins and flavanols over three seasons. Principal component analysis (PCA) showed that different LR treatment stages (LR1s vs LR2s) and whether LR in the same vines over consecutive years (1-LRs vs 2-LRs) had limited effects on phenolic profiles. In conclusion, LR in consecutive years at the upper canopy of grapevines was a practical strategy to face global warming in Xinjiang.In this study, the effects of different temperatures, incubation times and types of reducing sugars, including glucose and different low molecular weight (Mw) chito-oligosaccharides (COS) with varying acetylation degree (AD), on the extent of Maillard reaction (MR) on chitosan-based films were studied. Interestingly, an improvement of structural and functional properties of all MR-crosslinked films was noted, which is more pronounced by heating at higher temperature and exposure time. These findings were proved through Fourier-transform infrared and X-ray diffraction analyses. In addition, color change and Ultraviolet spectra demonstrate that glucose addition provides the high extent of MR, followed by COS1 (Mw less then 4.4 kDa; AD, 18.20%) and COS2 (Mw less then 4.4 kDa; AD, 10.63%). These results were confirmed by enhanced water resistance and thermal properties. Moreover, MR-chitosan/COS films showed the highest mechanical properties, whereas, glucose-loaded films were brittle, as demonstrated by scanning electron microscopy micrographs. Furthermore, MR-chitosan/COS1 films exhibited the better antioxidant behavior followed by chitosan/glucose and chitosan/COS2 films, mainly at higher heating-conditions.

Terpenoid metabolites 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphoquinone and 3-hydroxybenzoic acid reached the maximum at 105 days after pollination (DAP) (P2 stage). To reveal the complex mechanism of C. cathayensis embryogenesis in relation to terpenoid metabolites (90-165 DAP), a metabolomic and transcriptional co-expression analysis was conducted. Based on RNA-Seq analysis, 679 genes of 1144 terpenoid biosynthesis were differentially expressed. Six terpenoid metabolites and 86 differentially expressed genes related to terpenoquinone metabolism were identified. Comprehensive analysis of metabolome and transcriptional data revealed that terpenoquinone accumulated in the early phase was active in the later phase. Overall, we profiled the transcriptome and metabolome changes in C. cathayensis during the developmental phase to investigate the metabolic pathways and candidate genes underlying the changes at different growth stages.<br /><br /> Multiple system atrophy (MSA) presents with various combinations of autonomic dysfunction, parkinsonism, and cerebellar ataxia. Although clinical diagnostic criteria have been widely used, the sensitivity and specificity are suboptimal. This study aims to provide evidence supporting the revision of the current diagnostic criteria for MSA.<br /><br /> Medical records of 171 patients with autopsy-confirmed MSA in the Mayo Clinic brain bank were reviewed with regard to their clinical features and diagnoses. Pathologic features, including concomitant pathologies (i.e., Alzheimer-related and Lewy-related pathologies), were also assessed.<br /><br /> The cohort included 133 MSA-parkinsonian type, 36 MSA-cerebellar type, and 2 unclassified MSA patients who did not show significant motor symptoms. Twenty-three patients (13%) were not clinically diagnosed with MSA, but instead with progressive supranuclear palsy, Parkinson's disease (PD), PD with dementia (PDD), or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Three patients with PDD and DLB also had concomitant Lewy body pathology.
