Abstract
Plant extracts are rich in a variety of nutrients and contain a large number of bioactive compounds, and compared with traditional feed additives, they have advantages such as wide sources, natural safety and rich nutrition. This study employed in vitro antioxidant and animal experiments to comprehensively evaluate the use of Toona sinensis extract (TSE) in broiler production. 508 1-day-old Cobb 500 broilers were randomly assigned to the 7 experimental groups with 6 replications and 12 birds/replicate. Two groups received Vitamin C (VC) 300 g/t and Vitamin E 500 g/t, and five dose groups of TSE received 0, 300, 600, 900, and 1,200 g/t of TSE in their feed. The study spanned 42 days, with a starter phase (1-21 days) and a finisher phase (22-42 days). The results showed that compared to ascorbic acid, TSE had the scavenging ability of 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and hydroxyl radical, with IC50 values of 0.6658 mg/mL and 33.1298 mg/mL, respectively. Compared to TSE 0 group, broilers fed with 1,200 g/t TSE showed significant weight gain during the starter phase and increased the feed-to-weight gain ratio during both the starter and finisher phases. Additionally, broilers receiving 1,200 g/t TSE had enhanced dry matter and organic matter utilization. Concerning meat quality, broilers in the 1,200 g/t TSE group demonstrated increased cooked meat yield, and pH value, as well as higher antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) in serum. In addition, there was no significant difference in ileal microflora due to TSE supplementation. In summary, this study confirms the positive impact of a dietary inclusion of 1,200 g/t TSE on broiler growth, meat quality, and serum antioxidants.

Bioactivity of selenium-containing pyridinium salts: Prospecting future pharmaceutical constituents to treat liver diseases involving oxidative stress. J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2024; 38:e23535. [PMID: 37711070 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
Redox imbalance leads to oxidative stress that causes irreversible cellular damage. The incorporation of the antioxidant element selenium (Se) in the structure of pyridinium salts has been used as a strategy in chemical synthesis and can be useful in drug development. We investigated the antioxidant activity of Se-containing pyridinium salts (named Compounds 3A, 3B, and 3C) through in vitro tests. We focused our study on liver protein carbonylation, liver lipoperoxidation, free radical scavenging activity (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazil [DPPH]; 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid [ABTS]), and enzyme-mimetic activity assays (glutathione S-transferase [GST]-like; superoxide dismutase [SOD]-like). In addition, 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxoethyl)-2-((phenylselanyl)methyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide (3C) was selected to evaluate the acute oral toxicity in mice due to the best antioxidant profile. The three compounds were effective in reducing the levels of protein carbonylation and lipoperoxidation in the liver in a µM concentration range. All compounds demonstrated scavenger activity of DPPH and ABTS radicals, and GST-like action. No significant effects were detected in the SOD-like assay. Experimental data also showed that the acute oral treatment of mice with Compound 3C (50 and 300 mg/kg) did not cause mortality or change markers of liver and kidney functions. In summary, our findings reveal the antioxidant potential of Se-containing pyridinium salts in liver tissue, which could be related to their radical scavenging ability and mimetic action on the GST enzyme. They also demonstrate a low toxicity potential for Compound 3C. Together, the promising results open space for future studies on the therapeutic application of these molecules.

Abstract
Inulin is the polysaccharide obtained from different plant sources i.e. Wheat, Chicory, Jerusalem artichoke and Dahlia. In this study, Jicama (Pachyrhizus erosus) is used to isolate inulin using the microwave heating. The 1H NMR study reveals the presence of fructose and glucose unit which is the backbone of inulin. Further FT-IR and Raman confirmed the functional groups present in inulin. The UV-Vis spectroscopy analysis depicts the purity of the isolated inulin. The shape and size of the extracted inulin was determined from scanning electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering appeared as flat-flakes and 135 nm respectively. X-ray diffractogram showed semi-crystalline nature suggesting the stability of the extracted inulin. The isolated inulin has phenolic and flavonoid content of 8.1804 ± 6.26 mg gallic acid equivalent/g and 14.387 ± 4.192 mg rutin equivalent/g of dried polysaccharide respectively. The inhibition percentage of DPPH and FRAP of isolated inulin were found to be 75.74 ± 4.5% and 0.11 ± 0.007 respectively. The isolated inulin promotes the growth of probiotics like Enterococcus faecium (MZ540315) and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (MZ540317). All the analysis suggest the isolated inulin has good prebiotic potential as the commercially available one. The current study proposes that isolated inulin can be used as a prebiotic in the future.

Abstract
The intake of dietary fibers in the regular diet results in boosting the gut microbiome and health of the host in several ways. The misapprehension about such dietary fibers of being only an indigestible product has changed into indispensable ingredient that has to be included in every healthy diet. Inulin is considered to be an important naturally occurring fructan classified under such dietary fibers. The present review intends to provide a thorough knowledge on inulin in maintaining the gut microbiome of the human, supported by several studies conducted on the Drosophila melanogaster, mice, rat models as well as effect on human being. The extraction process of inulin has also been described in this review that would provide a brief knowledge about its stability and the conditions that have been optimized by the researchers in order to obtain a stable product. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: In order to meet the consumers demand, the food industries are trying to come up with new products that could eventually replace or lower the utilization of medically avail drugs and satisfy consumers by providing them with health benefits. The availability of functional food is the new trend that can improve health of the consumers with minimal use of the drugs. Therefore, inulin as a prebiotic can be utilized to produce several functional food products that could promote health benefits to the consumers. Apart from this, the review also justifies the efficacy of inulin as a fat replacer, stabilizer, and humectant in cosmetic industries. Research also suggests that inulin has also been used as nanoparticles in pharmaceutical industries. The overall review also depicts the different extraction process of inulin from different sources.

Abstract
Abstract
The deacetylation of chitin results in chitosan, a fibrous-like material. It may be produced in large quantities since the raw material (chitin) is plentiful in nature as a component of crustacean (shrimps and crabs) and insect hard outer skeletons, as well as the cell walls of some fungi. Chitosan is a nontoxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible polygluchitosanamine that contains two essential reactive functional groups, including amino and hydroxyl groups. This unique chemical structure confers chitosan with many biological functions and activities such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, antitumor, immunostimulatory and hypocholesterolemic, when used as a feed additive for farm animals. Studies have indicated the beneficial effects of chitosan on animal health and performance, aside from its safer use as an antibiotic alternative. This review aimed to highlight the effects of chitosan on animal health and performance when used as a promising feed additive.

Abstract
Amino functionalized chitosan has attracted much attention because of the fascinated bioactivities. In our study, a novel water-soluble amino functionalized chitosan bearing free amino group at C-2 and quaternary ammonium moiety contained free amino group at C-6 (5c) was prepared by a four-step method. The structural characterization was identified by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The water-solubility and antioxidant activities against hydroxyl, DPPH radicals and reducing power were estimated. The results displayed that amino functionalized chitosan 5c exhibited improved water-solubility and antioxidant ability, especially its DPPH scavenging rate reached about 90 % at the minimum test concentration of 0.10 mg/mL. Besides, antibacterial tests showed that amino functional chitosan 5c had best antibacterial activities, which indicated that amino group made main contribution to the enhanced bioactivities. In short, the novel chitosan 5c possessed enhanced water-solubility and excellent antioxidant and antibacterial activities, which could provide novel strategy for the development of antioxidant and antibacterial agents in biomedicine and food fields.

Abstract
Pyridine derivatives are the most common and significant heterocyclic compounds, which play an important role in various fields ranging from medicinal to chemosensing applications. Pyridine derivatives possess different biological activities such as antifungal, antibacterial, antioxidant, antiglycation, analgesic, antiparkinsonian, anticonvulsant, anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenic, antiviral, and anticancer activity. Furthermore, these derivatives have a high affinity for various ions and neutral species and can be used as a highly effective chemosensor for the determination of different species. In this review article, generally used synthetic routes of pyridine, structural characterization, medicinal applications, and potential of pyridine derivatives in analytical chemistry as chemosensors have been discussed. We hope this study will support the new thoughts to design biological active compounds and highly selective and effective chemosensors for the detection of various species (anions, cations, and neutral species) in various samples (environmental, agricultural, and biological).

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to develop a green and safe chitosan-based preservative which can be applied in strawberry preservation. Chitosan (CS) was treated by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine oxygen radical/laccase oxidation system (TEMPO/laccase oxidation system), which was mainly used to prepare TEMPO/laccase chitosan (TLCS). Furthermore, on this basis, the structure and performance of TLCS were also studied. The results showed that compared with CS, the solubility of TLCS improved, and the kinetic viscosity reduced significantly. Next, a cinnamaldehyde-TEMPO/laccase chitosan (CIN-TLCS) antibacterial agent was prepared by covalently combining the aldehyde group in cinnamaldehyde (CIN) and the amino group in CS. It was found that CIN combined with TLCS through covalent bonds, which changed the structure and crystallinity of TLCS. In addition, the total antioxidant capacity of CIN-TLCS also improved, which was necessary for the application of CIN-TLCS in extending shelf life. Cytotoxicity experiments showed that CIN-TLCS had no cytotoxicity. Furthermore, strawberries were used to explore the actual bacteriostatic and fresh-keeping effects of CIN-TLCS. The experiment found that CIN-TLCS could maintain the freshness of strawberries at room temperature (23 ± 1°C) for 5 days and had positive effects on strawberry color, loss-weight rate, hardness and pH. These results showed that CIN-TLCS could be used as a potential preserving agent for fruit storage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: To obtain a green, safe and effective food preservative, chitosan (CS) was modified by a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine oxygen radical/laccase oxidation system (TEMPO/laccase oxidation system) to get TEMPO/laccase chitosan (TLCS) and cinnamic aldehyde-TEMPO/laccase chitosan (CIN-TLCS). At the same time, the structure and antibacterial properties of TLCS and CIN-TLCS were analyzed, and their possibility as a new green and safe strawberry preservative was studied. Compared with oxazolidine, imidazole and triazole commercial drugs, CIN-TLCS has the advantages of low price, no pollution, no cytotoxicity and no drug resistance.

Abstract
Cholinesterase enzymes such as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) cause hydrolysis of acetylcholine (ACh), a neurotransmitter responsible for the cognitive functions of the brain such as acquiring knowledge and comprehension. Therefore, inhibition of these enzymes is an effective process to curb the progressive and fatal neurological Alzheimer's disease (AD). Herein, we explored the potential inhibitory activities of various pyridine, quinoxaline, and triazine derivatives (3a-k, 6a-j and 11a-h) against AChE and BuChE enzymes by following the modified Ellman's method. Further, anti-oxidant property of these libraries was monitored using DPPH (2,2'-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazylhydrate) radical scavenging analysis. From the studies, we identified that compounds 6e, 6f, 11b and 11f behaved as selective AChE inhibitors with IC50 values ranging from 7.23 to 10.35 μM. Further studies revealed good anti-oxidant activity by these compounds with IC50 values in the range of 14.80-27.22 μM. The kinetic studies of the active analogues demonstrated mixed-type of inhibition due to their interaction with both the catalytic active sites (CAS) and peripheral anionic sites (PAS) of the AChE. Additionally, molecular simulation in association with fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic analyses explained strong affinities of inhibitors to bind with AChE enzyme at the physiological pH of 7.2. Binding constant values of 5.4 × 104, 4.3 × 104, 3.2 × 104 and 4.9 × 104 M-1 corresponding to free energy changes -5.593, -6.799, -6.605 and -8.104 KcalM-1 were obtained at 25 °C from fluorescence emission spectroscopic studies of 6e, 6f, 11b and 11f, respectively. Besides, CD spectroscopy deliberately explained the secondary structure of AChE partly unfolded upon binding with these dynamic molecules. Excellent in vitro profiles of distinct quinoxaline and triazine compounds highlighted them as the potential leads compared to pyridine derivatives, suggesting a path towards developing preventive or therapeutic targets to treat the Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
In this paper, the inulin derivative (3) bearing 1,2,3-triazole and diphenyl phosphate was successfully synthesized by CuAAC Click chemistry. Detailed structural characterization was determined using FTIR spectroscopy, 1H NMR spectroscopy, 13C NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. The antioxidant activities against hydroxyl radicals, superoxide radicals, and DPPH radicals were estimated in vitro respectively. The results showed that the antioxidant activity of the inulin derivative (3) was significantly enhanced compared with inulin. The inulin derivative (3) exhibited stronger radical scavenging abilities, especially against hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radicals. The scavenging values of the inulin derivative (3) were 98.2% and 95.4% at 1.6 mg/mL against hydroxyl radicals and superoxide radicals respectively. Besides, the scavenging value of the inulin derivative (3) increased by about 40% to scavenge DPPH radicals at 1.6 mg/mL than inulin. The results showed that the inulin derivative (3) bearing 1,2,3-triazole and diphenyl phosphate exhibited tremendously enhanced antioxidant activity compared with inulin. The synthetic strategy might provide an effective way to prepare novel inulin antioxidant biomaterials.

Abstract
A series of novel inulin derivatives were designed and synthesized by the introduction of amino heterocyclic moieties onto carboxymethyl inulin with the aid of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysuccinimide. The target products were prepared via three - step chemical synthesis, and structures were identified by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Antioxidant activities of inulin derivatives including DPPH - radical scavenging assay, superoxide - radical scavenging assay, hydroxyl - radical scavenging assay, and reducing power were estimated. Meanwhile, their antifungal activities, including Colletotrichum lagenarium and Botrytis cinerea, were also explored by hyphal measurement. In particular, inulin derivatives bearing heterocyclic moieties exhibited a remarkable improvement over inulin on antioxidant and antifungal activities, and their bioactivities decreased roughly in the order of 2ATCMI > 4APCMI > 3APCMI > 2APCMI > 3ATCMI > CMI > inulin. Furthermore, the cytotoxicities of inulin derivatives against L929 cells were evaluated by CCK-8 in vitro, and all samples showed weak cytotoxicities. In a nutshell, the paper provides a practical approach to synthesize novel inulin derivatives with dramatically enhanced bioactivity and good biocompatibility. The product described in paper might serve as a new leading structure for further design of antioxidants or antifungal agents in biomedicine, cosmetics, and other fields.

Abstract
Inulin is a substance found in a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, and herbs. Inulin was modified by physical and chemical means to improve functionality. HMI has been used in the stability of emulsions and suspensions. SCFAs inulin esters have transformed the gut microbiota and improved the bioavailability of SCFAs. HMI based bioconjugates, hydrogel, and nanomicelles were used as a controlled release of drugs and vaccines.
Over the past few years, hydrophobically modified inulin (HMI) has gained considerable attention due to its multitudinous features. The targeted release of drugs remains a subject of research interest. Moreover, it is important to explore the properties of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) inulin esters because they are less studied. Additionally, HMI has been used to stabilize various dispersion formulations, which have been observed to be safe because inulin is generally recognized as safe (GRAS). However, the results regarding HMI-based dispersion products are dispersed throughout the literature. This comprehensive review is discussed the possible limitations regarding SCFAs inulin esters, real food dispersion formulations, and HMI drugs. The results revealed that SCFAs inulin esters can regulate the human gut microbiota and increase the biological half-life of SCFAs in the human body. This comprehensive review discusses the versatility of HMI as a promising excipient for the production of hydrophobic drugs.

Abstract
Twelve recent compounds, incorporating several heterocyclic moieties such as pyrazole, thiazole, triazole, and benzotriazole, made in excellent yield up to 37–99.6%. They were tested against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. albedinis fungi (Bayoud disease), where the best results are for compounds 2, 4, and 5 with IC50 = 18.8–54.4 μg/mL. Density functional theory (DFT) study presented their molecular reactivity, while the docking simulations to describe the synergies between the trained compounds of dataset containing all the tested compounds (57 molecules) and F. oxysporum phytase domain (Fophy) enzyme as biological target. By comparing the results of the docking studies for the Fophy protein, it is found that compound 5 has the best affinity followed by compounds 2 and 4, so there is good agreement with the experimental results where their IC50 values are in the following order: 74.28 (5) < 150 (2) < 214.10 (4), using Blind docking/virtual screening of the homology modeled protein and two different tools as Autodock Vina and Dockthor web tool that gave us predicted sites for further antifungal drug design.

Abstract
In this work deep eutectic solvent (DES), based on the mixture of choline chloride and lactic acid, were suggested as chitosan films plasticizers. The molecular structure and properties of films obtained using chitosan, with different degree of deacetylation and 0-80 wt.% DES content (ωDES), were studied by means of FTIR spectroscopy, SEM and AFM microscopy (films' surface properties) together with optical characteristics, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), water vapor permeability (WVP), tensile strength (TS) and elongation at break (Eb). Scanning electron micrographs revealed that all chitosan-DES films were smooth and uniform. DES significantly improves the film flexibility (Eb increases of ca. 160 % after incorporation of 80 wt.% DES), slightly decreases tensile strength and also improves antioxidative properties while simultaneously, increasing water vapor permeability (WVP). Films prepared in this study exhibit characteristics that qualify them for potential use as an active packaging material.

Abstract
In the present experimental series, we have developed a novel nanocomposite to target activated macrophages in the colon with real time imaging and therapeutic capabilities. This binary nanocomposite was formed by the covalent conjugation of mannosylated NPs (Man-NPs) with carbon dots (CDs). Man-NPs were prepared using a self-assembly method based on mannosylated decamethylenediamine-grafted carboxymethyl inulin amphiphilic acid. While, the CDs were synthesized using a simple bottom-up process using citric acid monohydrate and diethylenetriamine, which were tightly bonded to the Man-NPs surface by carbodimide coupling. The resulting nanocomposite had a uniform size of 241.3 nm with a negative charge and a high drug casing density of 25.54 wt% and blue self-fluorescence were emitted. Whereas, in vitro observation of cellular uptake indicated the greater nanocomposite uptake in inflamed macrophage as compared to the untreated macrophage and mannose receptor-negative cell lines, 4T1 respectively. However, in vivo bio distribution exhibited a large number (60%) of CDs/Man-NPs nanocomposite accumulated in the inflamed colon of colitis mice. It should be noted that the novel nanocomposite, as macrophage-targeted drug delivery, could have promise for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Abstract
The combination of heterocycles offers a new opportunity to create novel multicyclic compounds having improved biological activity. Coumarins are ubiquitous natural heterocycle widely adopted in the design of various biologically active compounds. Fusing different heterocycles with coumarin ring is one of the interesting approaches to generating novel hybrid molecules having highlighted biological activities. In the efforts to develop heterocyclic-fused coumarins, a wide range of 3,4-heterocycle-fused coumarins have been introduced bearing outstanding biological activity. The effect of heterocycles annulation at 3,4-positions of coumarin ring on the biological activity of the target structures were discussed. This review focuses on the important progress of 3,4-heterocycle-fused coumarins providing better insight for medicinal chemists on the design and preparation of biologically active heterocycle-fused coumarins with a significant therapeutic effect in the future.

Abstract
Inulin (IN), a fructan-type plant polysaccharide, is widely found in nature. The major plant sources of IN include chicory, Jerusalem artichoke, dahlia etc. Studies have found that IN possessed a wide array of biological activities, e.g. as a prebiotic to improve the intestinal microbe environment, regulating blood sugar, regulating blood lipids, antioxidant, anticancer, immune regulation and so on. Currently, IN is widely used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. IN can be used as thickener, fat replacer, sweetener and water retaining agent in the food industry. IN also can be applied in the pharmaceutics as stabilizer, drug carrier, and auxiliary therapeutic agent for certain diseases such as constipation and diabetes. This paper reviews the physiological functions of IN and its applications in the field of pharmaceutics, analyzes its present research status and future research direction. This review will serve as a one-in-all resource for the researchers who are interested to work on IN.

Abstract
A class of phenolic-chitosan quaternary ammonium derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Three chitosan derivatives possess effective structure of hydroxycinnamic acid have been obtained through chemical modification to get chitosan derivatives owning high antioxidant activity and antitumor activity. In this study, the scavenging ability of DPPH, hydroxyl (•OH), and superoxide (O2•-) free radical and reducing power have been tested to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the synthesized chitosan derivatives. Base on the value of IC50, the chitosan derivatives have the best inhibitory property of 0.019 mg/mL (DPPH), 0.016 mg/mL (•OH), and 0.008 (O2•-), respectively; and the chitosan derivatives with conjugate structure of ferulic acid and sinapic acid (4b and 4c) show promising antitumor activity toward A549 cells with the IC50 of 0.046 and 0.052 mg/mL. These data indicate that the chitosan derivatives with phenolic group give much stronger antioxidant activity and antitumor activity. On the other hand, the synthesized chitosan derivatives show no cytotoxicity for L929 cells at the testing concentrations. These results demonstrate that the introduction of phenol group improves the antioxidant activity of chitosan obviously, and the antioxidant or free radical scavenger based on nature polymers and phenol shows potentials application.

Abstract
To enhance the hypoglycemic effects of inulin, banana condensed tannins (BCT) were grafted onto inulin via a free radical method to synthesize the novel BCT grafted inulin (BCT-g-inulin) complex. Spectroscopic methods, XRD, TGA, 1H NMR, GPC and morphology analyses were utilized to characterize the structural properties of the BCT-g-inulin complex, and our results confirmed the conjugation of BCT and inulin. The conjugation possibly occurred between the hydroxyl group attached at the C6 position of inulin and the C6/C8 position of flavon-3-ol units of BCT. The grafting ratio and grafting efficiency of the BCT-g-inulin complex were 357.54 ± 2.98 g kg-1 complex and 74.57 ± 1.44%, respectively. The data of the antioxidant assays indicated that the BCT-g-inulin complex showed a significantly higher antioxidant activity than native inulin. Also, the grafting reaction remarkably improved the in vitro anti-diabetic activity of inulin. The glucose adsorption capacity and glucose dialysis retardation index of the BCT-g-inulin complex were remarkably higher than those of inulin, while the BCT-g-inulin complex showed much stronger inhibitory effects against α-amylase and α-glucosidase compared with inulin. Notably, the inhibition of both α-amylase and α-glucosidase by the BCT-g-inulin complex occurred through mixed-competitive mode. On the basis of fluorescence spectroscopy, the fluorescence of α-amylase and α-glucosidase could be quenched by the BCT-g-inulin complex through a static quenching mechanism. Hence, the BCT-g-inulin complex might have the potential to be developed as an effective anti-diabetic agent.

Abstract
Skin damage, especially the extensive full-thickness wound, is seriously affecting people's daily life and health. Meanwhile, wound healing is always challenged by bacterial infection. In this study, for the purpose of developing a disinfectant wound dressing, we designed a novel multi-functional nanofiber mats via electrospinning combining chitosan derivations and stereocomplex crystallite (SC). The SC membrane of poly (lactic acid)/chitosan derivatives were prepared via warming at 80 °C for 1 h. The thermal and mechanical properties of the heated mats were strengthened owing to the formation of SC, which restricted the lactide chains mobility. In vivo wound healing test revealed that the SC mats have better wound repair ability than the control group with a wound healing rate of 100 % within 15 days. In a word, the biomass-based mats with enhanced thermal and mechanical properties, antibacterial effect and antioxidant activity, providing a potential multi-functional platform for designing of disinfectant wound dressings.

Abstract
In this study, starch was chemically modified to improve its antioxidant activity. Five novel cationic 1,2,3-triazole functionalized starch derivatives were synthesized by using "click" reaction and N-alkylation. A convenient method for pre-azidation of starch was developed. The structures of the derivatives were analyzed using FTIR and 1H NMR. The radicals scavenging abilities of the derivatives against hydroxyl radicals, DPPH radicals, and superoxide radicals were tested in vitro in order to evaluate their antioxidant activity. Results revealed that all the cationic starch derivatives (2a-2e), as well as the precursor starch derivatives (1a-1e), had significantly improved antioxidant activity compared to native starch. In particular, the scavenging ability of the derivatives against superoxide radicals was extremely strong. The improved antioxidant activity benefited from the enhanced solubility and the added positive charges. The biocompatibility of the cationic derivatives was confirmed by the low hemolytic rate (<2%). The obtained derivatives in this study have great potential as antioxidant materials that can be applied in the fields of food and biomedicine.

Abstract
In order to improve the antioxidant and antifungal activity of chitosan, eight chitosan derivatives containing Schiff bases and quaternary ammonium salts were synthesized via an intermediate 6-O-chloroacetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl quaternary ammonium salt chitosan. Detailed structural characterization was carried out using FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. The antifungal activity against F. oxysporum f. sp. cucumerium, B. cinerea, and F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum was evaluated using a mycelium growth rate test. The results indicated that the chitosan derivatives exhibited enhanced antifungal activity when compared to chitosan, especially at 1.0 mg/mL. 6-[4-(2,3-dihydroxyl-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (2.3HBPATC), 6-[4-(2,3,4-trihydroxyl-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (2.3.4HBPATC), 6-[4-(2-fluorine-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (FBPATC), 6-[4-(2-chlorine-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (CBPATC), 6-[4-(2-bromine-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (BBPATC), and 6-[4-(2-hydroxyl-4-chlorine-benzimide) pyridine] acetyl-2-N,N,N-trimethyl-chitosan chloride (HCBPATC) showed inhibitory indices >90.0% at 1.0 mg/mL against F. oxysporum f. sp. cucumerium and B. cinerea. Furthermore, the chitosan derivatives showed stronger antioxidant activity than chitosan, especially 2.3HBPATC and 2.3.4HBPATC with inhibitory indices of 100.0% at 1.6 mg/mL against DPPH and superoxide radicals. Based on these data, it is reasonable to suggest that the introduction of phenolic hydroxyl and halogen groups enhances the antifungal and antioxidant activity of chitosan.

Abstract
In order to improve the bioactivity of chitosan, we synthesized a novel series of chitosan derivatives: firstly, chitosan was reacted with methylclhlorofonmate obtaining N-methoxyformylated chitosan (1), which was then converted into N-pyridylurea chitosan derivatives (2a-2c) by amine-ester exchange reaction. In addition, N-pyridylurea chitosan derivatives were conducted by reacting with iodomethane to obtain quaternized N-pyridylurea chitosan derivatives (3a-3c). The structural characteristics of as-prepared chitosan derivatives were confirmed by fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), elemental analysis, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Meanwhile, the antioxidant activity of the chitosan derivatives was assessed in vitro. As shown in this paper, the antioxidant activity decreased in the order: c > b > a. Moreover, after the quaternization with iodomethane, quaternized N-pyridylurea chitosan derivatives immediately exhibited enhanced antioxidant capacity compared with N-pyridylurea chitosan derivatives. For example, in 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay, the scavenging activities of 3a-3c were 91.75%, 93.63%, and 97.63% while 2a-2c were 42.32%, 42.97%, and 43.07% at 0.4 mg/mL. L929 cells were also adopted for cytotoxicity test of chitosan and synthesized derivatives by CCK-8 assay and all samples showed decreased cytotoxicity. These results suggested that the novel pyridylurea-functionalized chitosan derivatives could be an ideal biomaterial.

Abstract
Background and Objective Current studies give us inconsistent results regarding the inulin consumption in cancer patients. The results of to-date studies are summarized in this systematic review. Methods Web of Science (Science citation index expanded), PubMed (Medline), Embase and CENTRAL Science direct, Google scholar, Scopus and Cochrane were searched. Cochrane Collaboration's 'Risk of Bias' tool was used to assess the quality of included articles. Results Our search yielded 2652 studies after the elimination of duplicates. Three randomized controlled trials (RCTs), reporting results from 197 patients, were eligible for inclusion in the present systematic review. Risk of bias in these studies was assessed as high and moderate. Conclusion The available evidence is inconclusive regarding the effect of inulin and oligofructose on cancer outcomes. Nonetheless, possible inulin positive effects including improved stool consistency after abdomen radiotherapy and increased stool butyrate content which is involved in controlling tumor cells proliferation and apoptosis should not be denied. Further research is needed in this area before strong conclusions can be drawn.

Abstract
As a renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, inulin has a good solubility in water and some physiological functions. Chemical modification is one of the important methods to improve the bioactivity of inulin. In this paper, based on 6-amino-6-deoxy-3,4-acetyl inulin (3), three kinds of Schiff bases of inulin bearing pyridine rings were successfully designed and synthesized. Detailed structural characterization was carried out using FTIR, 13C NMR, and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Moreover, the antifungal activity of Schiff bases of inulin against three plant pathogenic fungi, including Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.niveum, and Phomopsis asparagi, were evaluated using in vitro hypha measurements. Inulin, as a natural polysaccharide, did not possess any antifungal activity at the tested concentration against the targeted fungi. Compared with inulin and the intermediate product 6-amino-6-deoxy-3,4-acetyl inulin (3), all the synthesized Schiff bases of inulin derivatives with >54.0% inhibitory index at 2.0 mg/mL exhibited enhanced antifungal activity. 3NS, with an inhibitory index of 77.0% exhibited good antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea at 2.0 mg/mL. The synthesized Schiff bases of inulin bearing pyridine rings can be prepared for novel antifungal agents to expand the application of inulin.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim. (ZBM), a Chinese herb medicine and food additive, has been shown to have broad-spectrum beneficial effects. However, the anticancer activities of its seed have not been reported. AIM OF THE STUDY for the first time investigated the anti-proliferation activity of seed oil of ZBM (ZBSO) on melanoma A375 cells as well as the underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS The chemical composition of ZBSO was analyzed by Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography. A375 cells exposure at different concentrations of ZBSO to examine the selectivity versus normal skin cells, invasion, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis was employed to investigate potential anticancer mechanisms of ZBSO. RESULTS Major compounds of ZBSO were identified and unsaturated fatty acid made up the major compound. ZBSO-treated A375 cells showed more typical apoptotic morphologic features than normal cells. ZBSO can significantly inhibit invasion and proliferation of A375 cells by G1 phase arrest and induction of apoptosis. Transcriptome analysis showed that ZBSO may affect cell cycle and MAPK signaling pathway of A375 cells. CONCLUSION ZBSO possessed anticancer activities that were selectively effective to A375 cells. This study support the hypothesis that ZBSO is a capable candidate for anti-melanoma agent, and provide new insights for future work on investigating the utilization of ZBSO in malignant melanoma treatment.

Abstract
In this paper, a series of 6-O-imidazole-based quaternary ammonium chitosan derivatives via 6-O-chloroacetyl chitosan (CAClC) were successfully designed and synthesized. Detailed structural characterization was carried out by means of FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the antioxidant property against hydroxyl radicals, superoxide radicals, and DPPH radicals was evaluated in vitro. 2-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-6-O-(2-aminobenzimidazole)acetyl chitosan chloride (2NPhMC) and 2-(N,N,N-trimethyl)-6-O-(1-butylimidazole)acetyl chitosan chloride (NBMC) showed more than 90% scavenging indices at 1.6 mg/mL. Besides, the antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea and Gibberella zeae was estimated using in vitro MIC and hypha measurements. Most of the quaternized chitosan derivatives especially with the long length alkyl chain and primary amino group showed an inhibitory index of > 85% at 1.0 mg/mL against Botrytis cinerea. Besides, the cytotoxicity of chitosan and all the quaternized chitosan derivatives was evaluated in vitro on HaCaT cells and all the quaternized chitosan derivatives bearing 6-O-imidazole exhibited low cytotoxicity. These results suggested that chitosan derivatives bearing 6-O-imidazole-based quaternary ammonium salts may be used as good biomaterials.

Abstract
Chemical modification is one of the most effective methods to improve the biological activity of chitin. In the current study, we modified C3-OH and C6-OH of chitin (CT) and successfully synthesized 6-amino-chitin (NCT) and 3,6-diamino-chitin (DNCT) through a series of chemical reactions. The structure of NCT and DNCT were characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, 13C NMR, XRD, and SEM. The inhibitory effects of CT, NCT, and DNCT against six kinds of phytopathogen (F. oxysporum f. sp. cucumerium, B. cinerea, C. lagenarium, P. asparagi, F. oxysporum f. niveum, and G. zeae) were evaluated using disk diffusion method in vitro. Meanwhile, carbendazim and amphotericin B were used as positive controls. Results revealed that 6-amino-chitin (NCT) and 3,6-diamino-chitin (DNCT) showed improved antifungal properties compared with pristine chitin. Moreover, DNCT exhibited the better antifungal property than NCT. Especially, while the inhibition zone diameters of NCT are ranged from 11.2 to 16.3 mm, DNCT are about 11.4⁻20.4 mm. These data demonstrated that the introduction of amino group into chitin derivatives could be key to increasing the antifungal activity of such compounds, and the greater the number of amino groups in the chitin derivatives, the better their antifungal activity was.

Abstract
We successfully synthesized the water-soluble chitosan derivatives propane sulfonated chitosan (PSCS) and dipropane sulfonated chitosan (DPSCS) in this paper. These derivatives were characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR, and 13C NMR. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of the chitosan derivatives was evaluated by free radical scavenging ability (against DPPH-radical, hydroxyl-radical, and superoxide-radical) and ferric reducing power. Meanwhile, inhibitory effects against two fungi were also tested. Our results suggested antioxidant abilities and antifungal properties were in order of DPSCS > PSCS > CS, which were consistent with the number of propane sulfonated groups. The scavenging activity of DPSCS against superoxide-radical and DPPH-radical were 94.1% and 100% at 1.6 mg/mL, respectively. The inhibitory indices of DPSCS against P. asparagi and F. oxysporum were up to 82.2% and 94% at 1.0 mg/mL, respectively. Obviously, the number of propane sulfonated groups of chitosan derivatives not only contributes to antioxidant activity, but also to antifungal activity. Therefore, DPSCS with more propane sulfonated groups endowed with antioxidant and antifungal activity that can be used as a candidate material in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Chitosan is an abundant and renewable polysaccharide, which exhibits attractive bioactivities and natural properties. Improvement such as chemical modification of chitosan is often performed for its potential of providing high bioactivity and good water solubility. A new class of chitosan derivatives possessing 1,2,3-triazolium charged units by associating “click reaction” with efficient 1,2,3-triazole quaternization were designed and synthesized. Their free radical-scavenging activity against three free radicals was tested. The inhibitory property and water solubility of the synthesized chitosan derivatives exhibited a remarkable improvement over chitosan. It is hypothesized that triazole or triazolium groups enable the synthesized chitosan to possess obviously better radical-scavenging activity. Moreover, the scavenging activity against superoxide radical of chitosan derivatives with triazolium (IC50 < 0.01 mg mL−1) was more efficient than that of derivatives with triazole and Vitamin C. In the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical-scavenging assay, the same pattern were observed, which should be related to the triazolium grafted at the periphery of molecular chains.

Abstract
Inulin is a kind of renewable and biodegradable carbohydrate with good water solubility and numerous physiological functions. For further utilization of inulin, chemical modification can be applied to improve its bioactivities. In this paper, five novel inulin derivatives were synthesized via chemical modification with quaternary phosphonium salt. Their antifungal activity against three kinds of plant pathogens including Colletotrichum lagenarium, Phomopsis asparagi, and Fusarium oxysporum was assessed with radial growth assay in vitro. Results revealed that all the inulin derivatives exhibited improved antifungal activity compared with inulin. Particularly, inulin modified with triphenylphosphine (TPhPAIL) exhibited the best antifungal activity with inhibitory indices of 80.0%, 78.8%, and 87.4% against Colletotrichum lagenarium, Phomopsis asparagi, and Fusarium oxysporum at 1.0mg/mL respectively. The results clearly showed that chemical modification of inulin with quaternary phosphonium salt could efficiently improve derivatives' antifungal activity. Further analysis of results indicated that the antifungal activity was influenced by alkyl chain length or electron-withdrawing ability of the grafted quaternary phosphonium salts. Longer alkyl chain lengths or the stronger electron-withdrawing groups would lead to enhanced antifungal efficacy.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) is an abundant and renewable polysaccharide that is reported to exhibit a great variety of beneficial properties. However, the poor solubility of chitosan in water limits its applications. In this paper, we successfully synthesized single N-quaternized (QCS) and double N-diquaternized (DQCS) chitosan derivatives, and the resulting quaternized materials were water-soluble. The degree of quaternization (DQ) of QCS and DQCS was 0.8 and 1.3, respectively. These derivatives were characterized by FTIR, ¹H NMR, 13C NMR, TGA, and SEM. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of the chitosan was evaluated by free radical scavenging ability (against DPPH-radical, hydroxyl-radical, and superoxide-radical) and ferric reducing power. Our results suggested that the antioxidant abilities were in the order of DQCS > QCS > CS, which was consistent with the number of quaternized groups. These data demonstrate that the number of quaternized groups of chitosan derivatives contributes to their antioxidant activity. Therefore, DQCS, with a higher number of quaternized groups and higher positive charge density, is endowed with high antioxidant activity, and can be used as a candidate material in food and pharmaceutical industries.
