  • Avocado Carbohydrate Fluctuations. II. Fruit Growth and Ripening
    J. AMER. SOC. HORT. SCI. 124(6):676–681. 1999. ‘Hass’ Avocado Carbohydrate Fluctuations. II. Fruit Growth and Ripening Xuan Liu, Paul W. Robinson, Monica A. Madore, Guy W. Witney,1 and Mary Lu Arpaia2 Department of Botany and Plant Sciences, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521 ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. ‘Hass’ avocado, ‘Duke 7’ rootstock, D-mannoheptulose, Persea americana, perseitol, soluble sugar, starch ABSTRACT. Changes in soluble sugar and starch reserves in avocado (Persea americana Mill. on ‘Duke 7’ rootstock) fruit were followed during growth and development and during low temperature storage and ripening. During the period of rapid fruit size expansion, soluble sugars accounted for most of the increase in fruit tissue biomass (peel: 17% to 22%, flesh: 40% to 44%, seed: 32% to 41% of the dry weight). More than half of the fruit total soluble sugars (TSS) was comprised of the seven carbon (C7) heptose sugar, D-mannoheptulose, and its polyol form, perseitol, with the balance being accounted for by the more common hexose sugars, glucose and fructose. Sugar content in the flesh tissues declined sharply as oil accumulation commenced. TSS declines in the seed were accompanied by a large accumulation of starch (≈30% of the dry weight). During postharvest storage at 1 or 5 °C, TSS in peel and flesh tissues declined slowly over the storage period. Substantial decreases in TSS, and especially in the C7 sugars, was observed in peel and flesh tissues during fruit ripening. These results suggest that the C7 sugars play an important role, not only in metabolic processes associated with fruit development, but also in respiratory processes associated with postharvest physiology and fruit ripening.

  • Postulated Physiological Roles of the Seven-Carbon Sugars, Mannoheptulose, and Perseitol in Avocado
    J. AMER. SOC. HORT. SCI. 127(1):108–114. 2002. Postulated Physiological Roles of the Seven-carbon Sugars, Mannoheptulose, and Perseitol in Avocado Xuan Liu,1 James Sievert, Mary Lu Arpaia, and Monica A. Madore2 Department of Botany and Plant Sciences, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521 ADDITIONAL INDEX WORDS. ‘Hass’ avocado on ‘Duke 7’ rootstock, phloem transport, ripening, Lauraceae ABSTRACT. Avocado (Persea americana Mill.) tissues contain high levels of the seven-carbon (C7) ketosugar mannoheptulose and its polyol form, perseitol. Radiolabeling of intact leaves of ‘Hass’ avocado on ‘Duke 7’ rootstock indicated that both perseitol and mannoheptulose are not only primary products of photosynthetic CO2 fixation but are also exported in the phloem. In cell-free extracts from mature source leaves, formation of the C7 backbone occurred by condensation of a three-carbon metabolite (dihydroxyacetone-P) with a four-carbon metabolite (erythrose-4-P) to form sedoheptulose-1,7- bis-P, followed by isomerization to a phosphorylated D-mannoheptulose derivative. A transketolase reaction was also observed which converted five-carbon metabolites (ribose-5-P and xylulose-5-P) to form the C7 metabolite, sedoheptu- lose-7-P, but this compound was not metabolized further to mannoheptulose. This suggests that C7 sugars are formed from the Calvin Cycle, not oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, reactions in avocado leaves. In avocado fruit, C7 sugars were present in substantial quantities and the normal ripening processes (fruit softening, ethylene production, and climacteric respiration rise), which occurs several days after the fruit is picked, did not occur until levels of C7 sugars dropped below an apparent threshold concentration of ≈20 mg·g–1 fresh weight.

  • Biological Values of Cultivated Mushrooms – a Review
    Acta Alimentaria, Vol. 48 (2), pp. 229–240 (2019) DOI: 10.1556/066.2019.48.2.11 BIOLOGICAL VALUES OF CULTIVATED MUSHROOMS – A REVIEW J. VETTER* Department of Botany, University of Veterinary Sciences, H-1077 Budapest, Rottenbiller u. 50. Hungary (Received: 3 July 2018; accepted: 11 October 2018) Cultivated mushrooms are not only valuable foods of our age (functional foods) but contain certain benefi cial chemical components (high level of K and P, very low content of Na, considerable quantities of some microelements, high and valuable protein but low fat contents). Some cultivated mushrooms have anti-carcinogenic effects caused fi rst of all by polysaccharides (Lentinan: Lentinula edodes) and by triterpenoids (ganoderic acids: Ganoderma lucidum or unsaturated fatty acids: linoleic, linolenic acids); antidiabetic effects, which can improve the sugar metabolism of patients (Coprinus comatus, Ganoderma lucidum, Agaricus bisporus); anti-microbial effects, caused partly by smaller triterpenoids or by higher molecules, i.e. by direct or indirect effects: via stimulation of the immune system. Certain mushrooms have antioxidant effects, provided mostly by higher radical scavenging activity of phenolic (fl avonoid) components. The chemical composition and its biological effects form together the biological values of the cultivated mushrooms. The following review would like to summarize the most important facts of this topic. Keywords: cultivated mushrooms, chemical components, nutritional values, anti-carcinogenic, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, antioxidant effects Mushrooms have been consumed since earliest historical times; Greeks believed that mushrooms provided strength for warriors, the Romans named them as the “Food of the Gods”. In countries of the Orient, certain mushrooms were believed “elixir of life” etc.

  • Shiitake Mushroom: a Tool of Medicine
    REVIEW ARTICLE Shiitake Mushroom: A Tool of Medicine Taufiqur Rahman1, MBK Choudhury2 1National Mushroom Development Project, Savar, Dhaka 2Directorate General of Health Services, Dhaka ABSTRACT Medicinal mushrooms have an established history of use in traditional oriental therapies. Contemporary research has validated and documented much of the ancient knowledge. Over the last three decades, the interdisciplinary fields of science that study medicinal mushrooms has sprung up and has increasingly demonstrated the potent and unique properties of compounds extracted from a range of species. Currently, the field is being developed into a very fruitful area. Modern clinical practice in Japan, China, Korea and other Asian countries rely on mushroom-derived preparations. Mushrooms have been studied for nutritional and medical purposes for its various potential anti-tumoral and immunomodulatory componests like polysaccharides that have been identified. For medical purposes, mushrooms have been consumed to prevent cancer and cardiac diseases, to improve blood circulation and to reduce blood cholesterol level. Some of these mushrooms have also been used for the treatment of physical and emotional stress, osteoporosis, gastric ulcers and chronic hepatitis, for the improvement of the quality of life of patients with diabetes and especially for the stimulation of immunity. Shiitake has a history of medicinal uses. The mushroom is used as anticarcinogenic, anti- inflammatory, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral as well as antithrombotic in cardiovascular disorders. This article has been written to throw some light on Shiitake mushroom which has many nutritional values. Many Shiitake preparations came in market containing the active ingredients which can replace many other marketed synthetic medicines and may prove to have promising results with fewer side effects.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the fatal malignancies and is considered as the third leading cause of death. Mutations, genetic modifications, dietary aflatoxins, or impairments in the regulation of oncogenic pathways may bring about liver cancer.An effective barrier against hepatotoxins is offered by gut-liver axis as a change in gut permeability and expanded translocation of lipopolysaccharides triggers the activation of Toll-like receptors which stimulate the process of hepatocarcinogenesis. Prebiotics, nondigestible oligosaccharides, have a pivotal role to play when it comes to inducing an antitumor effect. A healthy gut flora balance is imperative to downregulation of inflammatory cytokines and reducing lipopolysaccharides induced endotoxemia, thus inducing the antitumor effect. 1.

  • Abstract English
    Chapter 10 Summary and discussion The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) provides an additional pathway for oxidation of glucose. In most tissues 80% to 90% of glucose oxidation is by glycolysis, and the remainder is oxidized by the PPP. In recent years, two defects in the PPP have been discovered [1-3]. Firstly, in 1999, our group reported on a patient with a slowly progressive leukoencephalopathy of unknown origin and massive accumulation of ribitol and D-arabitol in the brain and CSF and to a lesser extend in plasma and urine. In 2004, a deficiency of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase (RPI) was demonstrated in cultured cells from this patient and mutations were detected in the RPIa gene. Secondly, in 2001, the first patient with a deficiency of transaldolase (TALDO) was described. The disease was found in a teenage girl who had presented in the newborn period with an aortic coarctation, enlarged clitoris and mild bleeding tendencies. After several months she developed hepatosplenomegaly. In urine elevated concentrations of D-arabitol, ribitol and erythritol were found with only very mild elevations in plasma and CSF. Diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of a homozygous deletion of 3- bp in exon 5 of the TALDO gene and deficient TALDO activity in lymphoblasts at the age of ten. At that age she had developed liver cirrhosis and persistent hepatomegaly. A second patient with TALDO deficiency was detected in 2005 [4]. The girl was a newborn with severe liver failure and cardiomyopathy and she died at 18 days from respiratory failure. The work presented in this thesis has mostly focused on improving the diagnosis of patients with a defect in the PPP, expanding the knowledge of these disorders and studying the function and importance of the PPP.
