acokinetic behavior on active alkaloids in ZN extract. Multiple species of Polygonatum are used as "Huangjing" in China and polysaccharides are the main effective constituents of "Huangjing". However, there is a lack of systematic comparison of polysaccharides from Polygonatum spp., and little work concerning on the polysaccharides from unofficial species. This paper conducted a comparison study on the characterization, high-performance gel permeation chromatography (HPGPC) saccharide mapping and antiglycation assay of polysaccharides and their enzymatic hydrolysates from nine species of Polygonatum. The results showed that polysaccharides from P. macropodium were mainly composed of fructans (3.3 × 103 Da); while polysaccharides from other eight Polygonatum spp. contained both fructans (2.5 × 103-4.1 × 103 Da) and pectins (more than 4.1 × 105 Da). Antiglycation assay showed that polysaccharides from Polygonatum spp. could significantly inhibit the formation of AGEs, and degradation of pectins and fructans could result in loss of activity. The results are helpful to the rational usage and quality control of Polygonatum spp. A COVID-19 epidemic has been spreading in China and other parts of the world since December 2019. The epidemic has brought not only the risk of death from infection but also unbearable psychological pressure. We sampled college students from Changzhi medical college by using cluster sampling. Imatinib supplier They responded to a questionnaire packet that included the 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and those inquiring the participants' basic information. We received 7,143 responses. Results indicated that 0.9% of the respondents were experiencing severe anxiety, 2.7% moderate anxiety, and 21.3% mild anxiety. Moreover, living in urban areas (OR = 0.810, 95% CI = 0.709 - 0.925), family income stability (OR = 0.726, 95% CI = 0.645 - 0.817) and living with parents (OR = 0.752, 95% CI = 0.596 - 0.950) were protective factors against anxiety. Moreover, having relatives or acquaintances infected with COVID-19 was a risk factor for increasing the anxiety of college students (OR = 3.007, 95% CI = 2.377 - 3.804). Results of correlation analysis indicated that economic effects, and effects on daily life, as well as delays in academic activities, were positively associated with anxiety symptoms (P less then .001). However, social support was negatively correlated with the level of anxiety (P less then .001). It is suggested that the mental health of college students should be monitored during epidemics. The targeted regulation of LSD1, which is highly expressed in a variety of tumor cells, is a promising cancer therapy strategy. Several LSD1 inhibitors are currently under clinical evaluation, and most of these inhibitors are irreversible. Here, we report the design, synthesis and biochemical evaluation of novel tetrahydroquinoline-based reversible LSD1 inhibitors. Compounds 18s and 18x, which are selective to LSD1 over MAO-A/B, exhibit excellent LSD1 inhibition at the molecular levels with IC50 = 55 nM and 540 nM, respectively. The classic Lineweaver-Burk plots revealed that compound 18s could reversibly bind the LSD1 enzyme in a noncompetitive manner. Molecular docking was used to reveal the potential binding-mode of the compounds and interpret the structure-activity relationships. Furthermore, compounds 18s and 18x significantly inhibited proliferation (IC50 = 1.13 μM and 1.15 μM, respectively) and induced apoptosis in MGC-803 cells with high expression of LSD1. Compound 18x showed acceptable liver microsomal stability. Meanwhile, 18x did not appear to inhibit CYPs at 10 μM in vitro. Remarkably, the oral administration of compound 18x can inhibit the growth of MGC-803 xenograft tumors without significant side effects. Our findings suggest that tetrahydroquinoline-based LSD1 inhibitors deserve further investigation for the treatment of LSD1 overexpressing cancer. Copper (Cu) based metal oxides have high electrocatalytic ability. In this work, we are synthesized stone-like cuprous oxide particles (Cu2O SNPs) covered on acid functionalized graphene oxide (GOS) sheets using ultrasonic process (50 kHz and 100 W). Besides, the chemical structural and crystalline analyses of Cu2O SNPs@GOS composites were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The Cu2O SNPs@GOS nanomaterials were tested towards detection of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in biological samples. As expected Cu2O SNPs@GOS catalyst modified electrodes performed an outstanding catalytic ability on 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine oxidation. 8-OHdG is oxidative stress biomarker. Further, it is noted that the detection performance of Cu2O SNPs@GOS coated electrodes and it's highly enhanced due to the synergistic effect of Cu2O SNPs and GOS. Besides, the modified materials provide more electro-active faces and as well as rapid electron transport pathway and shorten diffusion. Moreover, oxidation of 8-OHdG sensor is exploring a long linear or working range of 0.02-1465 µM and high sensitivity (8.75 nM). The viability of the Cu2O SNPs@GOS proposed electrochemical methods have tested, to find out 8-OHdG concentrations in biological fluids (blood serum and urine) with a satisfying recovery ranges. In this work, Cu-Co bimetallic nanoparticles embedded carbon nanocubes (CuxCo10-x/CNC) are synthesized by direct carbonization of Cu-Co bimetal ZIF. The ratio of Cu and Co nanoparticles in CuxCo10-x/CNC as well as morphology, pore structure and graphitization degree of carbon substrates can be tuned by adjusting the molar ratio of Cu/Co (010, 19, 28, 37, 46 and 55) in ZIF precursors. The Fenton catalytic performances of CuxCo10-x/CNC are further studied by degrading a typical azo dye, Acid Orange II (AOII). The results show the CuxCo10-x/CNC with a Cu/Co ratio of 4/6 display the highest catalytic activity with faster dye degradation rate than other catalysts, which may be ascribed to the synergetic effects of optimized ratio of Cu/Co bimetals, high surface area and graphitized carbon framework. The stability and reusability of the catalyst has been investigated, showing a good performance after five consecutive runs. The catalysts prepared in this study can be used as an attractive alternative in heterogeneous Fenton chemistry and wastewater treatment.
