Huping jujube is widely cultivated in northern China. PcPKS5, a resveratrol synthase (STS) gene, contains all functionally divergent plant specific type III PKSs and is involved in resveratrol synthesis. This study aimed to assess the effects of heterologous overexpression of the resveratrol synthase (PcPKS5) gene on Huping jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.) plant resistance and nutritional quality. Stems with leaves and shoot tips of Huping jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill) were infected with agrobacterium expressing PcPKS5 and GUS, and three positive plants were identified. Resveratrol (0.45 μg/g fresh weight) was detected by HPLC in line 2 transgenic plants. Interestingly, 100 μl extract of 1 g/ml transgenic plant crude extract showed an inhibitory effect equivalent to 1.0 μg of pure resveratrol. In addition, transgenic plants displayed increased anti-mite resistance compared with the wild-type counterparts. Importantly, higher PcPKS5 expression levels were found in young tissues compared with the stem and mature leaves. This study also provides a stable genetic transformation mechanism for developing new plant germplasms in Huping jujube.

The trans-resveratrol (RSV)-loaded silica aerogel (RLSA) was prepared by the sol-gel method, adding the drug during the aging process, solvent replacement and freeze drying. A series of characterizations showed that RSV stays in the silica aerogel in two ways. First, RSV precipitates due to minimal solubility in water during the solvent replacement process. After freeze drying, the solvent evaporates and the RSV recrystallizes. It can be seen from scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) images that the recrystallized RSV with micron-sized long rod-shaped is integrated with the dense silica network skeleton. Second, from small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) results, a portion of the RSV molecules is not crystallized and the size is extremely small. This can be attached to the primary and secondary particles of silica to enhance its network structure and inhibit shrinkage, which is why the volume and pore size of RLSA is larger. In addition, the diffusion of RSV in silica alcogel was studied by a one-dimensional model. The apparent diffusion coefficients of inward diffusion, outward diffusion and internal diffusion were calculated by fitting the time- and position-dependent concentration data. It was found that the outward diffusion coefficient (5.25 × 10−10m2/s) is larger than the inward (2.93 × 10−10m2/s), which is probably due to the interface effect. The diffusion coefficients obtained for different concentrations in the same process (inward diffusion) are found to be different. This suggests that the apparent diffusion coefficient obtained is affected by molecular adsorption.Keywords:RLSA;one-dimension diffusion;alcogel;adsorption/desorption;Silica Aerogel

Resveratrol (3, 4′, 5-trihydroxy-trans-stilbene, RSV), a nutraceutical, has recently attracted lots of attention because of its outstanding pharmacological potential. The effects of RSV on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remain inconclusive, although a wealth of research has been done. The major obstacle presented was RSV's poor bioavailability due to its poor aqueous solubility, chemical instability and intestinal metabolism. In this study, nanotechnology was used to encapsulate RSV to enhance its stability, water solubility and bioactivity, which can be used to treat NAFLD by HepG2 hepatocytes-induced in vitro. RSV-loaded poly (d, l-lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (RSV-PLGA-NPs) were prepared according to an oil/water (O/W) emulsion technique. The RSV-PLGA-NPs were of spherical morphology with an average size of 176.1 nm and a negative charge of −22.6 mV. These nanoparticles exhibited remarkable encapsulation efficiency (EE%) (97.25%) and drug loading (14.9%) for RSV. A sustained RSV release from RSV-PLGA-NPs could be achieved especially in acidic conditions when simulating transporting through the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, these nanoparticles were stable enough to store at 4°C for a least six months with unchanged EE%. Moreover, RSV-PLGA-NPs were more efficient in alleviating lipogenesis, promoting lipolysis and reducing hepatocellular proliferation than free RSV due to its improved stability, water solubility and bioactivity. These findings indicated that the RSV-PLGA-NPs provided superb and stable drug delivery with small particle size, high capsulation efficiency, well-controlled drug release, which greatly enhanced the stability, water solubility and bioactivity. Besides, the discovery that the inhibitory effect of RSV-PLGA-NPs on hepatocellular proliferation and lipid accumulation in steatotic HepG2 cells may provide a new way to study the mechanism of NAFLD. Therefore, RSV-PLGA-NPs have a promising potential for NAFLD therapy.

Atherosclerosis, a leading pathological basis of cardiovascular diseases, is closely associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid metabolism disorders. Resveratrol has demonstrated anti-atherosclerotic activity, but its clinical application is limited due to poor solubility, short circulation time, and lacking targeting. To overcome these limitations and establish a multi-pathway synergistic strategy for treating atherosclerosis, we designed a stealth lipid nanosphere system with macrophage-targeted and pH-responsive properties. The complete lipid nanospheres were evaluated for biocompatibility, cellular uptake, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, as well as the inhibitory effects on foam cell formation. Pharmacokinetics and targeting efficiency were analyzed using both high-performance liquid chromatography and an in vivo imaging system. Therapeutic efficacy and biosafety were assessed via serum biochemistry and histopathological examination. Results showed that the complete lipid nanospheres exhibited uniform spherical morphology, high encapsulation efficiency, and pH-responsive release. In vitro evaluations demonstrated excellent biocompatibility of the complete lipid nanospheres, along with selective uptake by activated macrophages. Furthermore, the complete lipid nanospheres exhibited potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as significant inhibition of foam cell formation. In vivo studies demonstrated that the treatment significantly extended the plasma half-life of resveratrol while enhancing its targeted accumulation within atherosclerotic plaques. In ApoE −/− mice with atherosclerosis, this intervention exhibited multifaceted therapeutic effects, including attenuation of oxidative stress, suppression of inflammatory responses, and reduction of lipid deposition. The study concludes that the complete formulation, stealth folic acid-modified pH-responsive lipid nanospheres, can specifically target resveratrol to the activated macrophages in plaques and inhibit plaque progression with minimal side effects, primarily due to resveratrol's antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and lipid metabolism regulatory activities.

Resveratrol and curcumin, natural plant-derived polyphenols with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties, are limited by poor bioavailability and stability. Delivery systems offer an effective strategy to address these limitations. Notably, their co-encapsulation shows synergistic effects, significantly enhancing encapsulation efficiency, stability, and bioactivity. In this study, nanoparticles were prepared from pectin and sodium caseinate to deliver resveratrol and curcumin using a solvent evaporation method combined with electrostatic deposition, and their physicochemical and structural properties were characterized. The nanoparticles (PE-SC-C-RNP) had a narrow size distribution (247.57 nm), low polydispersity index (0.32), and high encapsulation efficiency (95.24 ± 0.76%). Structural analyses indicated that electrostatic interactions between pectin and sodium caseinate formed the nanoparticle outer layer, with resveratrol and curcumin in an amorphous state. In vitro digestion experiments showed that curcumin enhanced the binding of resveratrol to carriers without affecting the release rate of resveratrol or free amino acids, leading to a significant increase in antioxidant activity. Animal model experiments showed that the resveratrol concentrations were greater in the plasma of mice administered PE-SC-C-RNP than those administered nanoparticles encapsulating only resveratrol orally, with a 0.83-1.27-fold increase in the maximal tissue concentration, and better pharmacokinetics. The maximum tissue concentration of resveratrol increased 0.83–1.27-fold in the liver, kidney, and other tissues within 6.0 h of administration. These results demonstrated that pectin sodium caseinate nanoparticles and co-encapsulated curcumin effectively improved the bioavailability of resveratrol for the delivery of bioactive compounds.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a serious problem during cancer therapy. The purpose of the present study was to formulate D-α-Tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate-resveratrol-solid lipid nanoparticles (TPGS-Res-SLNs) to improve its therapeutic efficacy against breast cancer. In this study, the solvent injection method was used to prepare the TPGS-Res-SLNs. It was found that the TPGS-Res-SLNs exhibited zeta potential and drug-loading of −25.6 ± 1.3 mV and 32.4 ± 2.6%, respectively. Therefore, it was evident that the TPGS-Res-SLNs can increase cellular uptake of chemotherapeutic drugs, induce mitochondrial dysfunction, and augment tumor treatment efficiency by inducing apoptosis. Moreover, it was found that SKBR3/PR cells treated with TPGS-Res-SLNs exhibited significant inhibition of cell migration and invasion, as compared with free resveratrol. In addition, results from in vivo SKBR3/PR xenograft tumor models revealed that TPGS-Res-SLNs has better efficacy in promoting apoptosis of tumor cells owing to high therapeutic outcomes on tumors when compared with the efficacy of free resveratrol. In conclusion, the findings of the present study indicate significant potential for use of TPGS-Res-SLNs as an efficient drug delivery vehicle to overcome drug resistance in breast cancer therapy.

Poor water solubility and low chemical stability, seriously limit the efficient bioavailability of resveratrol. Here, we propose encapsulating resveratrol in lecithin-polysaccharide self-assembled microspheres (LPSM). An LPSM was designed with a lecithin core, and alginate-carboxymethyl chitosan biolayer shell. The LPSM had a spherical shape with 12.171 ± 0.960 μm of particle size and −30.86 ± 1.37 mV of zeta potential. The introduce of lecithin remarkably increased the encapsulation efficiency of resveratrol to 92.78 ± 0.82%. The LPSM elevated the antioxidant capacity and ultraviolet resistance of resveratrol. Moreover, LPSM inhibited release in a simulated gastric environment, promoted sustained release in simulated intestinal environment, and elevated the bioavailability of resveratrol during in vitro simulated digestion. Results indicate that LPSM is promising as a carrier for resveratrol delivery to enhance stability and bioaccessibility.Keywords:resveratrol;encapsulation;soybean lecithin;polysaccharide;microspheres;stability

The Sn-Fe alloy coating is a potential choice for decorative coatings and electronic products because of its excellent performance. However, oxidation of the bath is likely to occur in the process of use, which limits the production of electrodeposition of Sn-Fe alloy. Resveratrol has excellent antioxidant capacity and is considered as a non-polluting natural antioxidant. However, the understanding of using of resveratrol as stabilizer for electroplating solution in the field of electrodeposition is limited. In this study, resveratrol, hydroquinone and TBHQ are selected as the stabilizers of the electroplating bath to conduct comparative experiments for measuring the stability effect of resveratrol. The antioxidant capacities of three stabilizers are compared by means of the natural oxidation experiment, H 2 O 2 accelerated oxidation experiment and electrochemical testing. The natural oxidation experiment and H 2 O 2 accelerated oxidation experiment confirm that the antioxidant effect of resveratrol is higher than hydroquinone and TBHQ. To determine the optimal concentration of resveratrol in the electroplating solution, EIS and salt spray test were conducted. These results show that appropriate resveratrol can improve the corrosion resistance of the coating, but excessive resveratrol is detrimental to corrosion resistance. Therefore, the optimal concentration of resveratrol in the electroplating solution is 1.0 g/L.

Resveratrol which is a natural polyphenol with good biological activity is mainly used in medicine, but it has poor photostability in vitro and short plasma half-life in vivo. Multi-armed poly( ε -caprolactone) (PCL) has attracted great attention because the increased number of terminal group broadens the polymeric flexibility in biomedical application. In the work, six-armed PCL was coupled with resveratrol through the hydrolysable ester bond to solve its disadvantage and realize protection for more resveratrol. The synthesized product was characterized with 1 H NMR, GPC and DSC. The molecular weight of the designed polymer was less than the experimental, and the polymeric distribution of molecular weight was narrow. In addition, resveratrol changed the physical form of six-armed PCL. The resveratrol coupling with six-armed PCL presented better photostability compared to original resveratrol. The concentration curve of the coupled resveratrol extended to the plain terrain after 80 min of irradiation, while the original resveratrol continued to decline. They were 72.10% and 52.35% at 2 h, respectively. Moreover, six-armed PCL could effectively protect resveratrol in vivo, and buy time for reaching the target site. The in vitro released amount of the original resveratrol was 52.89% within 3 h, while the coupled resveratrol was only 6.28%. Then this study provides a promising strategy for efficient usage of resveratrol.

Resveratrol (RES) is considered to be an activator of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) with many reported health benefits. Polydatin (POD) is a natural precursor and glycosylated form of RES. The glycoside structure of POD alters the bioactivity. Overnutrition-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) promote the AMPK suppression and metabolic dysregulation. The present work compared the effects of POD and RES in ameliorating energy homeostasis imbalance in mice fed a high-fructose diet and elucidated the underlying mechanisms of action. Our results showed that POD elevated the fecal levels of valeric acid and caproic acid via modification of gut microbiota, while RES did not significantly influence the levels of fecal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). Both POD and RES markedly decreased the oxidative stress and activated the AMPK signaling pathways in the liver. POD and RES exerted a similar effect in alleviating glucose dysmetabolism, but POD was more effective in ameliorating lipid dysmetabolism than RES. Furthermore, valeric acid and caproic acid alone can activate the AMPK and ameliorate hypercholesterolemia, and enhance the effects of POD on improving lipid metabolism in mice. Overall, for the first time, we demonstrated that POD administration elevated the fecal levels of valeric acid and caproic acid by modifying gut microbiota, thus promoting AMPK activation may be the underlying mechanism that POD is superior to RES in alleviating the lipid dysmetabolism. Our results suggest that POD may be an alternative for RES as an AMPK activator.

In the organic biomineralization of guanine (GUA), amorphous GUA is utilized to enhance its solubility, facilitating its transport for the formation of biominerals, and GUA nanocrystals are employed to protect tissues from ultraviolet damage. These principles of GUA biomineralization inspire us to improve the solubility and photostability of trans-resveratrol (RES) using bio-purines, which limits its bioavailability. Bio-purines, such as GUA, hypoxanthine (HYP), and adenine (ADE), were used as co-formers in the amorphous systems of RES. Amorphous RES-2Purines with a 1:2 molar ratio were prepared via the neat ball-milling method and confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The stability, dissolution profiles, and photostability of RES-2Purines were comprehensively compared. RES-2Purines show high amorphous-to-crystalline transformation temperatures (>100 °C), confirmed by the differential scanning calorimetry-thermogravimetric analysis. Both RES-2HYP and RES-2ADE show an enhanced RES solubility (about 1.6-fold that of raw RES) in water and the simulated gastric fluid (pH 1.2). RES-2Purines can recrystallize quickly after being dispersed in water, which limits the solubility enhancements of RES-2Purines. RES-2Purines have better photostability than raw RES. Bio-purines are promising co-formers for amorphous systems to enhance the solubility and photostability of poorly water-soluble compounds.

Aeromonas hydrophilais a Gram-negative bacterium that widely exists in various aquatic environments and causes septicemia in fish and humans. Resveratrol, a natural polyterpenoid product, has potential chemo-preventive and antibacterial properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of resveratrol onA. hydrophilabiofilm formation and motility. The results demonstrated that resveratrol, at sub-MIC levels, can significantly inhibit the biofilm formation ofA. hydrophila, and the biofilm was decreased with increasing concentrations. The motility assay showed that resveratrol could diminish the swimming and swarming motility ofA. hydrophila. Transcriptome analyses (RNA-seq) showed thatA. hydrophilatreated with 50 and 100 μg/mL resveratrol, respectively, presented 230 and 308 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 90 or 130 upregulated genes and 130 or 178 downregulated genes. Among them, genes related to flagellar, type IV pilus and chemotaxis were significantly repressed. In addition, mRNA of virulence factors OmpA, extracellular proteases, lipases and T6SS were dramatically suppressed. Further analysis revealed that the major DEGs involved in flagellar assembly and bacterial chemotaxis pathways could be regulated by cyclic-di-guanosine monophosphate (c-di-GMP)- and LysR-Type transcriptional regulator (LTTR)-dependent quorum sensing (QS) systems. Overall, our results indicate that resveratrol can inhibitA. hydrophilabiofilm formation by disturbing motility and QS systems, and can be used as a promising candidate drug against motile Aeromonad septicemia.Keywords:resveratrol;Aeromonas hydrophila;biofilm formation;motility;RNA-seq;quorum sensing
