Abstract
The development of rice active compounds is conducive to improving the added value of rice. This paper focused on the types and effects of active compounds in rice. Furthermore, it summarized the effect of rice storage and processing technology on rice active compounds. We conclude the following: Rice contains a large number of active compounds that are beneficial to humans. At present, the research on the action mechanism of rice active compounds on the human body is not deep enough, and the ability to deeply process rice is insufficient, greatly limiting the development of the rice active compound industry. To maximize the added value of rice, it is necessary to establish a dedicated preservation and processing technology system based on the physicochemical properties of the required active compounds. Additionally, attention should be paid to the development and application of composite technologies during the development of the rice active compound industry.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by persistently elevated blood glucose concentration that lead to multisystem complications. There are about 400 medicinal plants cited to have a beneficial effect on DM. We must choose products wisely based on data derived from scientific studies. However, a major obstacle in the amalgamation of herbal medicine in modern medical practices is the lack of clinical data on its safety, efficacy and drug interaction. Trials of these herbal products often underreport the side effects and other crucial intervention steps deviating from the standards set by Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials. Due to a lack of knowledge of the active compounds present in most herbal medicines, product standardization is difficult. Cost-effectiveness is another issue that needs to be kept in mind. In this mini-review, we focus on the anti-hyperglycemic effect of herbal products that are commonly used, along with the concerns stated above.

Abstract
Background Zishen Yutai (ZSYT) pill, a patent Chinese medicine, has been widely used in the treatment of infertility, abortion, and adjunctive treatment of in vitro fertilization (IVF) for decades. Recently, the results of clinical observations showed that premature ovarian failure (POF) patients exhibited improved expression of steroids and clinical symptoms associated with hormone disorders after treatment with Zishen Yutai pills. However, the pharmacological mechanism of action of these pills remains unclear. Methods The compounds of Zishen Yutai pills found in blood circulation were identified via ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS) technique in the serum of POF mice after oral administration of Zishen Yutai pills. The potential targets of compounds were screened using Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database, Traditional Chinese Medicine Database@Taiwan, Drugbank Database, PubChem, HIT, Pharmapper, and Swiss Target Prediction. The target genes associated with POF were collected from Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man Database, PharmGkb, Genecards, Therapeutic Target Database, and Genetic Association Database. The overlapping genes between the potential targets of Zishen Yutai pills’ compounds and the target genes associated with POF were clarified via protein-protein interaction (PPI), pathway, and network analysis. Results Nineteen compounds in Zishen Yutai pills were detected in the serum of POF mice after oral administration. A total of 695 Zishen Yutai (ZSYT) pill-related targets were screened, and 344 POF-related targets were collected. From the results of Zishen Yutai (ZSYT) pill-POF PPI analysis, CYP19A1, AKR1C3, ESR1, AR, and SRD5A2 were identified as key targets via network analysis, indicating their core role in the treatment of POF with Zishen Yutai pills. Moreover, the pathway enrichment results suggested that Zishen Yutai pills treated POF primarily by regulating neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and ovarian steroidogenesis. Conclusions Via virtual screening, we found that regulation of neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and ovarian steroidogenesis was the potential therapeutic mechanism of Zishen Yutai pills in treating POF. Our study suggested that combining the analysis of Zishen Yutai pills’ compounds in blood in vivo in the POF model and network pharmacology prediction might offer a tool to characterize the mechanism of Zishen Yutai pills in the POF.

Abstract
Warm and humid climate creates ideal conditions for mosquito breeding. The ability of these vectors to spread a number of diseases to humans causes millions of deaths every year. Indiscriminate use of synthetic insecticides leads to the development of resistance in vector mosquitoes and along with this, these pesticides cause biological magnification of toxic components and affects adversely the non-target organisms including human being. Commercially available, chemically manufactured mosquito repellent fast cards are convenient to use and quite effective but burning of such card generates a lot of smoke and might be hazardous to human health in the long run. Thus, alternative approaches are to be adopted to control the population load of vector mosquito. Like that, the present study also reveals the larvicidal effect of Duranta leaf extract against Culex mosquito. In the present study, mosquito repellent fast card has been developed by Duranta-algal mixture which has shown better result than commercially available fast card on the basis of mosquito mortality as well as the amount of gases emitted. Again, the ethanolic crude extract of Duranta leaves leads to 100% mortality of all instars (Culex pipiens) larvae at both 1000 ppm and 500 ppm concentration. Therefore, the active component of Duranta has also been investigated. In Duranta, highest area percentage and peak have been shown by propionic acid in the retention time 18.086 by GC-MS. So, it can be confirmed that the major active ingredient is propionic acid in Duranta which is responsible for the mosquitocidal properties. Occurrence of propionic acid in Duranta has also been confirmed by the HPLC analysis.

Abstract
Three linear dextrins (LDs) with different chain length were obtained through fractionating short-chain LD by gradient precipitation with 65%, 70% and 75% alcohol, signed as 65LD, 70LD, and 75LD, respectively. The LDs were employed to encapsulate arachidonic acid (ARA) and geranic acid (GA). Fourier infrared spectrometry, differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis confirmed the formation of ARA/LD and GA/LD composites. The ARA/65LD and GA/75LD composites showed higher crystallinity, indicating the formation of more ordered and compact structures in ARA/65LD and GA/75LD composites. The micromorphology of ARA/65LD composite was a clear ellipsoidal like structure, whereas GA/75LD composite presented a spherical shape. The release behavior, thermal, photochemical and antioxidant abilities of ARA and GA were improved after forming composites. Overall, the longer chain LD displayed better encapsulation efficiency with the longer chain ARA, while the shorter chain LD had higher encapsulation capability with GA.

Abstract
The use of bioactive compounds within the biopolymer-based Edible Coatings (EC) matrices has certain limitations for their application at the food industry level. Encapsulation has been considered as a strategy that enables protecting and improving the physical and chemical characteristics of the compounds; as a result, it extends the shelf life of coated foods. This review discusses recent progress in combining edible coatings with nanoencapsulation technology. We also described and discussed various works, in which nanoliposomes are used as encapsulation systems to prepare, and subsequently apply the edible coatings in plant products and meat products. The use of nanoliposomes for the encapsulation of phenolic compounds and essential oils provides an improvement in the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of coatings by extending the shelf life of food matrices. However, when liposomes are stored for a long period of time, they may present some degree of instability manifested by an increase in size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential. This is reflected in an aggregation, fusion, and rupture of the vesicles. This investigation can help researchers and industries to select an appropriate and efficient biopolymer to form EC containing nanoencapsulated active compounds. This work also addresses the use of nanoliposomes to create EC extending markedly the shelf life of fruit, reducing the weight loss, and deterioration due to the action of microorganisms.

Abstract
Salidroside is one of the bio-active compounds found in Rhodiola crenulata. To find an easy, time saving and efficient way to extract, purify and enrich salidroside from Rhodiola and other natural plants, we prepared a highly selective molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for extraction and preconcentration of salidroside using salidroside (SD) as a template, acrylamide (AM) as a functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EDMA) as a crosslinking monomer, and dimethyl formamide (DMF) as a porogen. The performance of the MIPs was evaluated through selective recognition capacity and adsorption isotherms and kinetics. The results showed that MIPs possessed excellent specific recognition toward SD and could effectively discriminate its structural analogue. The application of the developed MIPs as a selective sorbent for solid-phase extraction (SPE) of SD was also investigated. Under the optimum conditions, a rapid, economical, and efficient method based upon MIP-SPE coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was developed for the determination of SD in Rhodiola crenulata. The method showed satisfactory recoveries (from spiked real samples at 3 fortification levels of 0.5, 1 and 10 mg L-1) of 88.74%- 97.64% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ranging from 2.05%-3.54%. Furthermore, MIP-SPE was successfully used to separate and purify SD from different parts in Rhodiola crenulata and it should be available for determination of salidroside in others herbs.

Abstract
There are >80 species of turmeric (Curcuma spp.) and some species have multiple varieties, for example, Curcuma longa (C. longa) has 70 varieties. They could be different in their chemical properties and biological activities. Therefore, we compared antioxidant activity, total phenolic and flavonoid content of different species and varieties of turmeric namely C. longa [variety: Ryudai gold (RD) and Okinawa ukon], C. xanthorrhiza, C. aromatica, C. amada, and C. zedoaria. The antioxidant activity was determined using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity, oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), reducing power and 2-deoxyribose (2-DR) oxidation assay. Our results suggested that RD contained significantly higher concentrations of total phenolic (157.4 mg gallic acid equivalent/g extract) and flavonoids (1089.5 mg rutin equivalent/g extract). RD also showed significantly higher DPPH radical-scavenging activity (IC50: 26.4 μg/mL), ORAC (14,090 μmol Trolox equivalent/g extract), reducing power absorbance (0.33) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (IC50: 7.4 μg/mL). Therefore, RD was chosen for the isolation of antioxidant compounds using silica gel column, Toyopearl HW-40F column, and high-performance liquid chromatography. Structural identification of the compounds was conducted using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The purified antioxidant compounds were bisabolone-9-one (1), 4-methyllene-5-hydroxybisabola-2,10-diene-9-one (2), turmeronol B (3), 5-hydroxy-1,7-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-hepten-3-one (4), 3-hydroxy-1,7-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-hepten-1,5-dione (5), cyclobisdemethoxycurcumin (6), bisdemethoxycurcumin (7), demethoxycurcumin (8) and curcumin (9). The IC50 for DPPH radical-scavenging activity were 474, 621, 234, 29, 39, 257, 198, 47 and 18 μM and hydroxyl radical-scavenging activity were 25.1, 24.4, 20.2, 2.1, 5.1, 17.2, 7.2, 3.3 and 1.5 μM for compound 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, respectively. Our findings suggested that the RD variety of C. longa, developed by the University of the Ryukyus, Okinawa, Japan, is a promising source of natural antioxidants.

Abstract
FOXO1 protein inactivation in the nucleus is one of targets for the treatment of diabetes mellitus. Annona muricata leaves contain flavonoid and phenolic compound alkaloids that were known to be able to increase pancreatic β cell proliferation in animal experiment. This research aimed to predict the active compound ability of the Annona muricata leaves to bind and inhibit FOXO1 protein through in silico study. Analysis of molecular docking was performed by using Autodock Vina PyRx. this research proved that anonaine, rutin, muricatocin a, isolaureline, xylopine, and kaempferol 3-O-rutinoside had an equal or smaller free binding energy compared to the control compound. Rutin and Muricatocin A had the same binding ability toward 66% amino acid residues, compared to control compound with hydrogen bond type, while xylopine, anonaine, isolaureline, kaempferol 3-O-rutinoside had a similar binding ability towards 33% amino acid residues compared to control compound with hydrogen bond type.

Abstract
More than 50% of the world population is infected with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). The bacterium highly links to peptic ulcer diseases and duodenal ulcer, which was classified as a group I carcinogen in 1994 by the WHO. The pathogenesis of H. pylori is contributed by its virulence factors including urease, flagella, vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA), cytotoxin-associated gene antigen (Cag A), and others. Of those virulence factors, VacA and CagA play the key roles. Infection with H. pylori vacA-positive strains can lead to vacuolation and apoptosis, whereas infection with cagA-positive strains might result in severe gastric inflammation and gastric cancer. Numerous medicinal plants have been reported for their anti-H. pylori activity, and the relevant active compounds including polyphenols, flavonoids, quinones, coumarins, terpenoids, and alkaloids have been studied. The anti-H. pylori action mechanisms, including inhibition of enzymatic (urease, DNA gyrase, dihydrofolate reductase, N-acetyltransferase, and myeloperoxidase) and adhesive activities, high redox potential, and hydrophilic/hydrophobic natures of compounds, have also been discussed in detail. H. pylori-induced gastric inflammation may progress to superficial gastritis, atrophic gastritis, and finally gastric cancer. Many natural products have anti-H. pylori-induced inflammation activity and the relevant mechanisms include suppression of nuclear factor-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway activation and inhibition of oxidative stress. Anti-H. pylori induced gastric inflammatory effects of plant products, including quercetin, apigenin, carotenoids-rich algae, tea product, garlic extract, apple peel polyphenol, and finger-root extract, have been documented. In conclusion, many medicinal plant products possess anti-H. pylori activity as well as an anti-H. pylori-induced gastric inflammatory effect. Those plant products have showed great potential as pharmaceutical candidates for H. pylori eradication and H. pylori induced related gastric disease prevention.
