    Original Article Anti-diarrheal Activity of Caffeine: A Modulatory Effect with Loperamide and through 6FH5 (PIK3CG) Protein Interaction Pathway Farhana Faria1, Shardar Mohammad Hafiz Hassan1, Rajib Hossain1, Mahmuda Akter Mukta1, Md. Ashiqur Rahman Chowdhury2, Muhammad Torequl Islam1,* 1Department of Pharmacy, Life Science Faculty, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Science and Technology University, Gopalganj, Dhaka, BANGLADESH. 2Department of Chemistry, University of Chittagong, Chittagonj, BANGLADESH. ABSTRACT Background: Caffeine (CAF) is known for its central nervous system stimulatory effect. Although, CAF use in diarrhea, especially in Runner's diarrhea is still controversial, but it has been reported that dark tea containing CAF has anti-diarrheal effect on Sennae- mediated diarrhea in mice. Aim: To evaluate the anti-diarrheal effect of CAF and its modulatory effects on the standard anti-diarrheal drug loperamide (LOP), an opioid receptor agonist. Materials and Methods: CAF (15 mg/kg, i.p.) with or without LOP (3 mg/kg, p.o.) was administered to the Swiss mice (Mus musculus) previously treated with castor oil. Additionally, an in silico study was also performed to see the possible anti-diarrheal mechanism of CAF and LOP. Results: CAF increased the latent period, while decreasing the diarrheal defecation during the observation period (4 hr) in the test animals. Interestingly, CAF co-treated with the LOP exhibited a prominent anti-diarrheal effect in comparison to the negative control, CAF and LOP groups. Further, in silico study suggests that CAF have the most binding affinity with the 6FH5 (PIK3CG) protein (-8.22 KJ/mol) of adenosine receptor, while LOP with the μ-opioid receptor. Conclusion: CAF showed significant anti-diarrheal effect as well as strengthen the anti-diarrheal effect of LOP in castor oil-induced diarrheal mice.

  • Water Lilies As Emerging Models for Darwin's Abominable Mystery
    OPEN Citation: Horticulture Research (2017) 4, 17051; doi:10.1038/hortres.2017.51 www.nature.com/hortres REVIEW ARTICLE Water lilies as emerging models for Darwin’s abominable mystery Fei Chen1, Xing Liu1, Cuiwei Yu2, Yuchu Chen2, Haibao Tang1 and Liangsheng Zhang1 Water lilies are not only highly favored aquatic ornamental plants with cultural and economic importance but they also occupy a critical evolutionary space that is crucial for understanding the origin and early evolutionary trajectory of flowering plants. The birth and rapid radiation of flowering plants has interested many scientists and was considered ‘an abominable mystery’ by Charles Darwin. In searching for the angiosperm evolutionary origin and its underlying mechanisms, the genome of Amborella has shed some light on the molecular features of one of the basal angiosperm lineages; however, little is known regarding the genetics and genomics of another basal angiosperm lineage, namely, the water lily. In this study, we reviewed current molecular research and note that water lily research has entered the genomic era. We propose that the genome of the water lily is critical for studying the contentious relationship of basal angiosperms and Darwin’s ‘abominable mystery’. Four pantropical water lilies, especially the recently sequenced Nymphaea colorata, have characteristics such as small size, rapid growth rate and numerous seeds and can act as the best model for understanding the origin of angiosperms. The water lily genome is also valuable for revealing the genetics of ornamental traits and will largely accelerate the molecular breeding of water lilies.

  • Traditional Use and Management of Ntfps in Kangchenjunga Landscape: Implications for Conservation and Livelihoods Yadav Uprety1*, Ram C
    Uprety et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2016) 12:19 DOI 10.1186/s13002-016-0089-8 REVIEW Open Access Traditional use and management of NTFPs in Kangchenjunga Landscape: implications for conservation and livelihoods Yadav Uprety1*, Ram C. Poudel2, Janita Gurung3, Nakul Chettri3 and Ram P. Chaudhary1,4 Abstract Non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs), an important provisioning ecosystem services, are recognized for their contribution in rural livelihoods and forest conservation. Effective management through sustainable harvesting and market driven commercialization are two contrasting aspects that are bringing challenges in development of NTFPs sector. Identifying potential species having market value, conducting value chain analyses, and sustainable management of NTFPs need analysis of their use patterns by communities and trends at a regional scale. We analyzed use patterns, trends, and challenges in traditional use and management of NTFPs in the southern slope of Kangchenjunga Landscape, Eastern Himalaya and discussed potential implications for conservation and livelihoods. A total of 739 species of NTFPs used by the local people of Kangchenjunga Landscape were reported in the reviewed literature. Of these, the highest number of NTFPs was documented from India (377 species), followed by Nepal (363) and Bhutan (245). Though the reported species were used for 24 different purposes, medicinal and edible plants were the most frequently used NTFP categories in the landscape. Medicinal plants were used in 27 major ailment categories, with the highest number of species being used for gastro-intestinal disorders. Though the Kangchenjunga Landscape harbors many potential NTFPs, trade of NTFPs was found to be nominal indicating lack of commercialization due to limited market information.

  • Why the Monophyly of Nymphaeaceae Currently Remains Indeterminate: an Assessment Based on Gene-Wise Plastid Phylogenomics
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 3 May 2019 doi:10.20944/preprints201905.0002.v1 Article Why the monophyly of Nymphaeaceae currently remains indeterminate: An assessment based on gene-wise plastid phylogenomics Michael Gruenstaeudl 1,* 1 Institut für Biologie, Freie Universität Berlin, 14195 Berlin, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: date; Accepted: date; Published: date Abstract: The monophyly of Nymphaeaceae (water lilies) represents a critical question in understanding the evolutionary history of early-diverging angiosperms. A recent plastid phylogenomic investigation claimed new evidence for the monophyly of Nymphaeaceae, but its results could not be verified from the available data. Moreover, preliminary gene-wise analyses of the same dataset provided partial support for the paraphyly of the family. The present investigation aims to re-assess the previous conclusion of the monophyly of Nymphaeaceae under the same dataset and to determine the congruence of the phylogenetic signal across different plastome genes and data partition strategies. To that end, phylogenetic tree inference is conducted on each of 78 protein-coding plastome genes, both individually and upon concatenation, and under four data partitioning schemes. Moreover, the possible effects of various sequence variability and homoplasy metrics on the inference of specific phylogenetic relationships are tested using multiple logistic regression. Differences in the variability of polymorphic sites across codon positions are assessed using parametric and non-parametric analysis of variance. The results of the phylogenetic reconstructions indicate considerable incongruence among the different gene trees as well as the data partitioning schemes. The results of the multiple logistic regression tests indicate that the fraction of polymorphic sites of codon position 3 has a significant effect on the recovery of the monophyly of Nymphaeaceae.
