EditorialOpen accessIn the author namesFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNanowire Mediated Effect of Interspecies Electron Transfer in Organic Solid Waste Co-FermentationJingkang Chen, Daicheng Liu et al.Low efficiency of Interspecific Electron Transfer (IET) among microorganisms constrains organic matter degradation and biogas production in organic solid waste co‑fermentation. This work investigates the underlying bottleneck and evaluates the nanowire‑mediated enhancement of IET. Surface plasmon resonance‑enhanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing was applied to regulate endogenous nanowire formation in anaerobic reactors. Surface Plasmon Resonance-Enhanced Electrochemical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 9 Oct 2026 · 591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAntioxidant and Antibacterial Properties of Essential Oils from Citrus reticulata cv. Shatangju Peel for the Preservation of Chilled PorkYao Dong, Xintong Zou, Hongli Zhou et al.Citrus reticulata cv. Shatangju peel essential oil (CrspEo), with three major components D-limonene (88.15%), γ-terpinene (4.59%) and β-myrcene (2.62%), possessed antioxidant activities with DPPH and ABTS+ radical scavenging with the IC50 (concentration of CrspEo scavenging 50% of radical) of 9.87±0.12% and 0.48±0.02%, respectively. Meanwhile, CrspEo showed antimicrobial activity in suppressing the growth of Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Escherichia … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 31 Jul 2024 · 4,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStudy on the Polyploidy Induction of Herbicides on Hengshan Astragalus MembranaceusJianxia Liu, Yanmao Gao, Lizhen Liu et al.Studying medicinal polyploid plants is of great significance for the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine varieties and the extraction of active ingredients. The polyploidization of A. membranaceus (Astragalus membranaceus) was induced using two treatment methods: oryzalin and pendimethalin as mutagens. The results showed that in the same method, the induction effect of polyploidy was affected by the concentration of reagents … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesUltrasonic Microwave Assisted Extraction, Chemical Characterization and Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharides from Fig LeavesBaikangzhe Zheng, Yang Miao, Yi Zhou et al.This study employed ultrasonic-microwave-assisted extraction (UMAE) to isolate water-soluble polysaccharides from fig (Ficus carica L.) leaves (FLPs). Polysaccharide yield was used as the primary index to evaluate extraction efficiency. The effects of material-liquid ratio, microwave power, extraction temperature, and extraction time on polysaccharide yield were systematically investigated through single-factor experiments, followed by response surface methodology optimization. Structural characterization and antioxidant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Mar 2026 · 1,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Activities of Selenium-Enriched Polysaccharides from Epimedium and Isatis IndigoticaRui Zhang, Jin Li, Jiajia ZhouThis study aims to investigate the effects of selenium modification on polysaccharides derived from two traditional Chinese medicinal herbs-Epimedium (Yinyanghuo) and Isatis root (Banlangen)-in enhancing immune function and antioxidant activity. The purpose is to explore the relationship between structure and function, providing a theoretical basis for the development of efficient plant-based functional antioxidants. Polysaccharides were extracted using an optimized enzymatic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2026 · 1,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptimization of Hydrodistillation Extraction by Response Surface Methodology and Evaluation of the Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities of Essential Oils from Phragmites communis (Cav) TrinXin-Tong Zou, Hong-Yuan Ma, Yu-He Li et al.The principal objectives of this study encompass three distinct aspects: firstly, to streamline the extraction process of Phragmites communis (Cav) Trin essential oil; secondly, to systematically analyze the essential oil’s chemical composition; and finally, to evaluate biological activity. Through the system optimization experiment, the optimal extraction process was determined: the crushing size was set to 10 mesh, the total solid-liquid … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2026 · 2,315 accessesView PDFCite

With Steaming Yellow Rice Wine: Processing Technology, the Content of 5 Hydroxymethylfurfura and Safety AssessmentShiyu Ji, Shuo Li et al.To investigate the content and safety evaluation of 5 Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) in the processing of Polygonatum sibiricum Red, the steaming technology was optimized by response surface method combined with analytic hierarchy process of multiple indexes. The content of 5-HMF was quantitatively determined by HPLC. Safety assessment was conducted using a zebrafish model. The optimized conditions were a steaming time of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesScreening of Bioactive Constituents from the Aerial Parts of Dictamnus dasycarpus Turcz. With Antioxidant, Immunoenhancing, and Anticoagulant PotentialJiaqi Sun, Shiyu Ji et al.The cultivation of Dictamnus dasycarpus Turcz (DdT) is expensive and difficulty associated with growing, making its root bark the only commonly used medicinal part, while other parts are discarded. Therefore, in order to improve the limited utilization of resources, the new medicinal parts were screened from polysaccharide-rich aqueous extracts. The samples were the purified polysaccharides from the aerial part on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 9 Oct 2025 · 2,018 accessesView PDFCite
