Abstract
The treatment of wastewater containing hypophosphite [P(I)] and phosphite [P(III)] is challenged by limitations of traditional Fenton oxidation such as low efficiency, secondary pollution and high costs. This study introduced a facile solvent-thermal method to synthesize Cu-Co3O4 nanoparticles uniformly loaded on graphene (Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO) through the reduction and coordination effects of urushiol (U). As prepared Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO exhibited excellent activity in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the oxidation of P(I)/P(III) to phosphate [P(V)] (0.229 min-1), along with high stability and reusability (91.5 % after 6 cycles), low metal leaching rate (Co: 0.2 mg/L, Cu: 0.05 mg/L), insensitivity to common anions in water and a wide pH range (3-11). The activation mechanism involved the synergistic effects from both urushiol and graphene, which promoted redox of Cu+/Cu2+ and Co2+/Co3+ and induced abundant oxygen vacancies for PMS activation to produce singlet oxygen. Furthermore, the Cu-Co3O4/U-rGO/PMS was also excellent in the oxidative removal of organic phosphorus. This study is expected to advance strategies for the treatment of P(I)/P(III)-rich wastewater and provide new insights for the development of low-cost, highly efficient heterogeneous catalysts with abundant oxygen vacancies.

Abstract
Toxicodendron vernicifluum bark has been used for many years as a component in foods and as a traditional herbal medication. Unfortunately, the presence of urushiols, which induce allergies, limits its application. This study used a vortex-blending matrix solid-phase dispersion microextraction technique to extract urushiols from Toxicodendron vernicifluum bark. HPLC was used to evaluate the amounts of the extracted urushiols (15:0, 15:1, 15:2, and 15:3). The modified magnetic adsorbent was prepared through an in situ coprecipitation method and characterized using a variety of techniques. The optimized extraction conditions are as follows: using magnetic Zeolite Socony Mobil-Five as an adsorbent, a 1:2 sample/adsorbent ratio, 2.5 min of vortex-blending time, 4 mL of 0.1% (V/V) trifluoroacetic acid-methanol as the elution solvent and 8 min of ultrasound time. There was good linearity and high repeatability in the method. Furthermore, the limits of detection for the urushiols ranged from 0.20 to 0.50 μg/mL. Under the optimized conditions, 50 compounds were identified by ultra high performance liquid chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. These compounds included 8 phenolic acids, 9 monomeric urushiols, 11 urushiol dimers, 10 other components, and 11 flavonoids. The suggested approach, which has the advantages of few stages and high extraction efficiency over existing extraction procedures, is a potentially useful method for obtaining and evaluating urushiols in raw materials or extracts.

Abstract
The pericarp of fruit can be differentiated into endocarp, mesocarp, and exocarp. To explore the differences in gene expression and metabolites in different tissues of the pericarp, the fruits of sumac (Toxicodendron vernicifluum) were separated into endocarp and mesocarp-exocarp. The metabolites and transcriptome of exocarp-mesocarp and endocarp of Toxicodendron vernicifluum were analyzed by HPLC-QTOF-MS/MS and RNA sequencing, respectively. A total of 52 phenolic compounds were identified, including 3 phenylpropane derivatives, 10 urushiol compounds and 39 flavonoids. The exocarp-mesocarp contained more urushiol compounds and flavonoid glycosides while the endocarp contained more biflavonoids, such as rhusflavone and dihydromorelloflavone. The characteristic component of endocarp was rhusflavone and the characteristic component of exocarp-mesocarp was urushiol (triene). Most of the genes involved in flavonoid synthesis pathway were upregulated in endocarp compared with exocarp-mesocarp and positively correlated with the content of flavonoids. The candidate genes related to the synthesis of components of flavonoid glycosides and biflavonoids were screened. Metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses provide new insights into the synthesis and distribution of flavonoid glycosides and biflavonoids in the fruits of Toxicodendron vernicifluum.

Abstract
Preparation of highly active and cost-effective electrode materials is of great interest in electrochemical detection. In this study, a simple urushiol-templated solvothermal method combined with calcination was proposed to fabricate N-doped three-dimensional graphene (3D-G) with Mn-doped Fe3O4 nanoparticles loaded on the surface (Mn-Fe3O4/3D-G). Because of the large active surface area, porous channel and high loading ratio of Mn-Fe3O4 nanoparticles, as-prepared Mn-Fe3O4/3D-G sensor showed high activity on the determination of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), which are much improved from the control un-modified samples. The wide linear concentration range (5-100 μM), low detection limit (19 nM) and satisfactory recovery of 4-NP in various water samples (98.38-100.41%) indicated that the Mn-Fe3O4/3D-G electrode can be potentially used for real-world applications. This study gives a simple but meaningful strategy for constructing transition metal oxide/graphene composite materials with high electrocatalytic activity.

Abstract
Background Mango is one of the world’s most important tropical fruits. It belongs to the family Anacardiaceae, which includes several other economically important species, notably cashew, sumac and pistachio from other genera. Many species in this family produce family-specific urushiols and related phenols, which can induce contact dermatitis. Results We generate a chromosome-scale genome assembly of mango, providing a reference genome for the Anacardiaceae family. Our results indicate the occurrence of a recent whole-genome duplication (WGD) event in mango. Duplicated genes preferentially retained include photosynthetic, photorespiration, and lipid metabolic genes that may have provided adaptive advantages to sharp historical decreases in atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperatures. A notable example of an extended gene family is the chalcone synthase (CHS) family of genes, and particular genes in this family show universally higher expression in peels than in flesh, likely for the biosynthesis of urushiols and related phenols. Genome resequencing reveals two distinct groups of mango varieties, with commercial varieties clustered with India germplasms and demonstrating allelic admixture, and indigenous varieties from Southeast Asia in the second group. Landraces indigenous in China formed distinct clades, and some showed admixture in genomes. Conclusions Analysis of chromosome-scale mango genome sequences reveals photosynthesis and lipid metabolism are preferentially retained after a recent WGD event, and expansion of CHS genes is likely associated with urushiol biosynthesis in mango. Genome resequencing clarifies two groups of mango varieties, discovers allelic admixture in commercial varieties, and shows distinct genetic background of landraces.

Abstract
Skin contact or exposure to sensitizers often occurs as a consequence of occupational exposures (e.g. poison ivy in forestry), wearing jewelry (e.g. nickel), or use of cosmetics (e.g. fragrances). However, many of the known skin sensitizers or their chemical variants are also consumed orally through foods or other sources. Since oral exposure to antigenic substances can lead to tolerance, consumption of sensitizers may impact the development and potency of skin sensitization, especially if the sensitizer is consumed early in life, prior to the first skin contact. To address this issue, we have reviewed human clinical and epidemiological literature relevant to this subject and evaluated whether early oral exposures to relevant sensitizers, or their chemical variants, are associated with reduced prevalence of skin sensitization to three main allergic sensitizers - nickel, urushiols of poison ivy, and sesquiterpene lactones of chrysanthemum and other plants.

Abstract
It has been reported that there are a range of causative drugs related to symmetrical drug-related intertriginous and flexural exanthema (SDRIFE). The causative drugs reported so far include the following: antibiotics, intravenous immunoglobulin, chemotherapeutic agents, and biologics. In this study, we report two cases of SDRIFE and a review of the previous literature. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature because it demonstrates that intradermal injection of the Chinese herbal ball, and not its topical application, elicited a reaction that predicted the occurrence of SDRIFE. This finding is important for the diagnosis of SDRIFE in future studies. Our findings also provide evidence for a SDRIFE reaction after exposure to ranitidine and mosapride.

Abstract
Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare the antibacterial activity of urushiol against Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) to that of NaOCl. Materials and Methods The canals of thirty two single rooted human teeth were instrumented with Ni-Ti files (ProTaper Next X1, X2, X3, Dentsply). A pure culture of E. faecalis ATCC 19433 was prepared in sterile brain heart infusion (BHI) broth. The teeth were submerged in the suspension of E. faecalis and were incubated at 37℃ for 7 days to allow biofilm formation. The teeth were randomly divided into three experimental groups according to the irrigant used, and a negative control group where no irrigant was used (n = 8). Group 1 used physiologic normal saline, group 2 used 6% NaOCl, and group 3 used 10 wt% urushiol solution. After canal irrigation, each sample was collected by the sequential placement of 2 sterile paper points (ProTaper NEXT paper points, size X3, Dentsply). Ten-fold serial dilutions on each vials, and 100 µL were cultured on a BHI agar plate for 8 hours, and colony forming unit (CFU) analysis was done. The data were statistically analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-whitney U tests. Results Saline group exhibited no difference in the CFU counts with control group, while NaOCl and urushiol groups showed significantly less CFU counts than saline and control groups (p < 0.05). Conclusions The result of this study suggests 10% urushiol and 6% NaOCl solution had powerful antibacterial activity against E. faecalis when they were used as root canal irrigants.

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Many different tribes of American Indians used jewelweed, Impatiens capensis Meerb, as a plant mash to reduce development of poison ivy dermatitis. Saponins are a natural soapy constituent found within plants. A 2012 study suggested that saponins may be present in jewelweed which could be responsible for its efficacy in preventing rash development following contact with Toxicodendron radicans (L.) Kuntze (poison ivy). This study validated this hypothesis and demonstrated additional biological activity of the jewelweed saponin containing extract. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fresh I. capensis leaves were extracted with methanol and further partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, with a final separation between water and n-butanol, to obtain a saponin containing extract. The presence of saponins in the extract was demonstrated by the observation of foaming and using a vanillin colorimetric assay for total saponins. Efficacy of the saponin containing extracts in rash reduction was tested by brushing poison ivy (PI) onto the forearms of volunteers (N=23) in six locations and treating these PI exposed areas with distilled water (control), saponin containing extracts, fresh plant mashes, and soaps made with and without plant extracts. Saponin containing extracts were further tested for biological activity against both gram negative and gram positive bacteria and against cancer cell lines A-375, HT-29, and MCF-7. Additionally, because saponins have been shown to have a stimulatory effect in cardiac muscle 2 µl saponin extract was applied superficially to black worms, Lumbriculus variegatus (N=5). RESULTS, AND CONCLUSIONS Both saponin containing extracts and all soaps tested were effective in reducing poison ivy dermatitis; thus, saponin content correlates with PI rash prevention. No apparent antibiosis was observed against any bacteria tested; however, dose response cytotoxicity was documented against MCF-7 breast cancer cells and cytostatic activity was seen against the HT-29 colon cancer cell lines. Lumbriculus variegatus exhibited a 138% increase in heart rate over baseline rate five minutes post treatment implying a possible positive chronotropic effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urushiols are mixtures of olefinic catechols which is isolated from the sap of Korean lacquer tree (Rhus vernicifera Stokes). The aim of this study was to determine the anticancer effects of urushiol in human gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines. METHODS The cytotoxicity of urushiols was assessed by MTT assays on the two gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines, MKN-45 (wild type of p53) and MKN-28 (mutant type of p53). We also examined the action mechanisms of urushiol by analyzing its effects on cell cycle progression and apoptosis induction. RESULTS The cytotoxic results from MTT assays indicated that urushiol inhibited human gastric cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50 values of approximately 15 and 20 μg/ml on MKN-45 and MKN-28 cells, respectively. Urushiol mediated cell death on these two cancer cell lines through different pathways. Urushiol induced apoptosis on MKN-45 cells, concomitant with apoptotic nuclear change, DNA fragmentation, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage and apoptotic body formation via extrinsic pathway of apoptosis. However, no apoptotic features were induced by urushiol treatment on MKN-28 cells. Urushiol induced cytostatic cell growth inhibition via upregulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p21 (WAF1/CIP1) and p27 (KIP1) proteins and down-regulation of cyclin-dependent kinase 2 and 4 proteins in a p53-independent manner. CONCLUSIONS These data provide evidence that urushiol has the potential to be used as a chemotherapeutic agent in human gastric cancer.

Abstract
Eradication regimens for Helicobacter pylori infection have some side effects, compliance problems, relapses, and antibiotic resistance. Therefore, alternative anti-H. pylori or supportive antimicrobial agents with fewer disadvantages are necessary for the treatment of H. pylori. We investigated the pH-(5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0) and concentration (0.032, 0.064, 0.128, 0.256, 0.514, and 1.024 mg/mL)-dependent antibacterial activity of crude urushiol extract from the sap of the Korean lacquer tree (Rhus vernicifera Stokes) against 3 strains (NCTC11637, 69, and 219) of H. pylori by the agar dilution method. In addition, the serial (before incubation, 3, 6, and 10 min after incubation) morphological effects of urushiol on H. pylori were examined by electron microscopy. All strains survived only within pH 6.0-9.0. The minimal inhibitory concentrations of the extract against strains ranged from 0.064 mg/mL to 0.256 mg/mL. Urushiol caused mainly separation of the membrane, vacuolization, and lysis of H. pylori. Interestingly, these changes were observed within 10 min following incubation with the 1xminimal inhibitory concentrations of urushiol. The results of this work suggest that urushiol has potential as a rapid therapeutic against H. pylori infection by disrupting the bacterial cell membrane.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic contact dermatitis commonly occurs with the intake of rhus (boiled chicken with rhus) as a health food and a folk medicine to cure gastrointestinal diseases in Korea. Rhus companies insist they have the technology for rhus detoxification. However, the numbers of systemic allergic contact dermatitis patients, caused by rhus, have not decreased. The principle of present techniques for rhus detoxification is the induction of the polymerization of urushiol, but polymerized urushiol may still have antigenicity, although to a diminished degree. The Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) has a regulation to control urushiol use as a food. However, the laboratory method that KFDA uses for detection of rhus can only detect the urushiol monomer. OBJECTIVE We conducted experiments to detect polymerized urushiol in rhus products, which were considered not to include urushiol by the KFDA. METHODS Rhus product approved by the KFDA was separated with chloroform. The chloroform fractionation was accomplished on a recycle HPLC system. Four peaks were achieved and evaporated to give an amorphous powder. Each powder was analyzed on a NMR system and mass spectrometer. RESULTS The material considered to be urushiol dimer, with a 638 molecular weight (MW), was detected in one of the four powders as per the HPLC peaks. CONCLUSION We concluded that commercially available rhus product is comprised of material considered to be urushiol dimer. Therefore, even if the antigenicity of the rhus products is low, this product may cause adverse effects and is not completely detoxified.
