Chloroplasts play crucial roles in plant defence against viral infection. We now report that chloroplast NADH dehydrogenase-like (NDH) complex M subunit gene ( NdhM ) was first up-regulated and then down-regulated in turnip mosaic virus (TuMV)-infected N. benthamiana . NbNdhM -silenced plants were more susceptible to TuMV, whereas overexpression of NbNdhM inhibited TuMV accumulation. Overexpression of NbNdhM significantly induced the clustering of chloroplasts around the nuclei and disturbing this clustering facilitated TuMV infection, suggesting that the clustering mediated by NbNdhM is a defence against TuMV. It was then shown that NbNdhM interacted with TuMV VPg, and that the NdhMs of different plant species interacted with the proteins of different viruses, implying that NdhM may be a common target of viruses. In the presence of TuMV VPg, NbNdhM, which is normally localized in the nucleus, chloroplasts, cell periphery and chloroplast stromules, colocalized with VPg at the nucleus and nucleolus, with significantly increased nuclear accumulation, while NbNdhM-mediated chloroplast clustering was significantly impaired. This study therefore indicates that NbNdhM has a defensive role in TuMV infection probably by inducing the perinuclear clustering of chloroplasts, and that the localization of NbNdhM is altered by its interaction with TuMV VPg in a way that promotes virus infection.

Hollow carbon nanosheets with predominant mesopores have been demonstrated as a promising electrode material for supercapacitor , but their low specific surface area with relatively low micropore proportion limits their specific capacitance and energy density . Herein, we develop a novel extrusion plant microtube strategy to synthesize micron-sized nitrogen-doped hollow porous carbon nanosheets (MNHPCS) from dandelion fluff having the specific natural thin-wall and hollow tubular bundled structure through high-pressure extrusion, carbonization and KOH activation. The optimized MNHPCS displays strutted bilayer nanosheet structure, large SSA of 1593 m 2 g −1 , high micoporosity of 71.2 % and high heteroatom content (5.2 at.% for N, 7.0 at.% for O). Importantly, MNHPCS prepared by the new technique overcomes the drawbacks of hollow carbon nanosheets and presents an excellent capacitance of 378 F g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 and rate capability of 57 % at 80 A g −1 in 6 M KOH. Furthermore, the energy density of MNHPCS//MNHPCS based supercapacitor in EMIMBF 4 can reach up to 84 Wh kg −1 . Most importantly, MNHPCS can be easily achieved from various plant wastes having hollow tubular structure, which would provide a clearly method on selecting plant precursors for producing hollow porous carbon nanosheets applied on supercapacitors.

In the present study, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as new extraction solvents, are proposed for the green and efficient extraction and separation of bioactive flavonoids from Equisetum palustre L. with negative pressure cavitation-assisted extraction (NPCE) combined with macroporous resin enrichment. A series of different DES systems were investigated for the extraction of bioactive flavonoids in E. palustre. Compared with conventional extraction solvents, DES composed of choline chloride/betaine hydrochloride-ethylene glycol possessed a more effective extraction yields. In addition, the DES-NPCE extraction procedures were also optimized systematically. The optimal conditions were obtained as follows: choline chloride-betaine hydrochloride-ethylene glycol formed a DES with the mole ratio of 1:1:2, 20% water content, extraction pressure −0.07 MPa, extraction temperature 60°C, solvent to solid ratio 25:1 mL/g, and the extraction time 20 min. Furthermore, the direct enrichment of nine flavonoids in DES extraction solution were efficiently achieved using macroporous resin HPD-826. The contents of the nine target flavonoids separated by HPD-826 resin were from 0.17% to 3.37%, and the recovery yields from 57.14% to 89.25%. In conclusion, the developed DES-NPCE combined with macroporous resin enrichment can be an alternative procedure for the green and efficient extraction and separation of bioactive flavonoids from plant sample matrices.

A porous graphene (PG) bionanocomposite of PG, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and anti-indole-3-acetic acid (anti-IAA) antibody for sensitive and label-free amperometric immunoassay of IAA was reported. A PG film was produced by a pre-reduction/electrochemical reduction process on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and then a homogeneous AuNPs layer electrodeposition on the PG film. The anti-IAA antibody was immobilized onto the AuNPs through electrostatic adsorption and covalent conjugation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), elecro-chemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used to characterize the PG film and the stepwise modification of the immunosensor. The electrochemical immunosensor exhibited a wide linear range from 2 × 10−11 to 2 × 10−8 g mL−1 with a detection limit of 0.016 ng mL−1 (S/N = 3) and showed significant linearity R2 = 0.9970. In addition, the proposed immunosensor showed acceptable selectivity and has been applied to the determination of IAA in the extract samples of several plant seeds with acceptable relative derivation (%) ranging from −5.25% to 4.24% between the immunosensor and high performance liquid chromatography. The proposed chemical pre-reduction and electro-reduction guided protocol can be extended to the preparation of many other functionalized PG nanocomposite films for wide applications.

According to the sixth edition of China’s “New Coronavirus Diagnosis and Treatment Plan (NCDTP),” ReDuNing injection (RDN) was firstly introduced to treat severe and critical COVID-19, whereas its combination with broad-spectrum antibiotics was suggested to take with extreme caution and full reasons. Therefore, we aim to describe the pharmacokinetics of seven active phytochemicals and semiquantification of nine relevant metabolites in ReDuNing injection (RDN) after combining with cefuroxime sodium (CNa) for injection in rat plasma. Male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly assigned to six groups, and they were intravenously administered, respectively, with different prescriptions of RDN (2 mL/kg) and CNa (225 mg/kg). At different time points (0.03, 0.08, 0.17, 0.24, 0.33, 0.50, 0.67, 1, and 6 h) after administration, the drug concentrations of iridoids glycosides, organic acids, and metabolites in rat plasma were determined using ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion rap-orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC–LTQ–Orbitrap–MS), and main pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by noncompartment model. The results showed that there were differences in pharmacokinetic parameters, AUC (0-t) , T 1/2 , C max , CL of iridoids glycosides, and organic acids, after the intravenous administration of the different combinations of RDN and CNa. Moreover, different combinations of the injections also resulted in different curves of relative changes of each metabolite. The obtained results suggested that RDN and CNa existed pharmacokinetic drug–herb interactions in rats. The findings not only lay the foundation for evaluating the safety of RDN injection combined with CNa but also make contributions to clinically applying RDN injection combined with CNa, which works potentially against severe forms of COVID-19.

Near infrared (NIR) light emitting phosphors have attracted more and more attention with the development of science and technology . Herein, we report a series of environmentally-friendly low-cost Fe 3+ -activated ZnGa 2 O 4 phosphors which exhibit intense broadband NIR light emitting. According to density functional theory (DFT) calculations, ZnGa 2 O 4 host possesses an indirect wide bandgap. The emission of the Fe 3+ -doped phosphors demonstrates a wide band spanning from 650 to 850 nm, with the maximum at 720 nm and a full width at half maxima (FWHM) of 70 nm, showing a large overlap with the absorption of phytochromes (PR and PFR). The luminescence intensity remains at 71% when the temperature is raised to 423 K. The phosphors are fabricated into light emitting diodes (LEDs) which produces strong NIR emission with CIE color coordinates of (0.65, 0.31). All these results suggest that ZnGa 2 O 4 :Fe 3+ is a promising NIR luminescent material , which is expected to be a candidate for indoor plant culture LEDs.
