Higenamine (Norcoclaurine) is part of the Nandina plant that has traditionally been used as an anti-asthmatic and is currently used as a fat burner due to sharing similar mechanisms to ephedrine; limited evidence on these claims.

As a pre-workout supplement Higenamine helps increase energy, improve focus, and enhance mental clarity. It is also effective in weight loss supplements.

Higenamine is a tetrahydroisoquinoline present in several plants that has β-adrenergic receptor agonist activity. Study of the biosynthesis of higenamine has shown the participation of norcoclaurine synthase, which controls the stereochemistry to construct the (S)-isomer. However, when isolated from nature, higenamine is found as the racemate, or even the (R)-isomer. We recently reported the isolation of higenamine 4′-O-β-d-glucoside. Herein, its (R)- and (S)-isomers were synthesized and compared to precisely determine the stereochemistry of the isolate. Owing to their similar spectral properties, determination of the stereochemistry based on NMR data was considered inappropriate. Therefore, a high-performance liquid chromatography method was established to separate the isomers, and natural higenamine 4′-O-β-d-glucoside was determined to be a mixture of isomers.

Nandina domestica is an evergreen Shrub growing to 2.5 m (8ft) by 2 m (6ft) at a medium rate. It is hardy to zone (UK) 7 and is not frost tender. It is in leaf 12-Jan It is in flower from Jun to July. The flowers are hermaphrodite (have both male and female organs)Suitable for: light (sandy), medium (loamy) and heavy (clay) soils and prefers well-drained soil. Suitable pH: acid, neutral and basic (alkaline) soils. It cannot grow in the shade. It prefers moist soil.

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Countries have a chance to choose a new path as societies begin to return to normal after lockdowns imposed to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, activist Greta Thunberg told an Earth Day event on Wednesday.. Thunberg, who shot to fame as a 15-year-old when she started skipping school on Fridays to protest over carbon emissions outside Swedens parliament building, said the outbreak showed the need for long-term thinking.. Whether we like it not the world has changed, it looks completely different from how it did a few months ago and it will probably not look the same again and we are going to have to choose a new way forward, she said.. If one single virus can destroy economies in a matter of weeks, it shows we are not thinking long term and we are not taking these risks into account..

Among the activists and thinkers who are concerned about the increasing heat and instability of the climate there has been a long-running debate about what exactly motivates people to take action. Some say that a realistic form of hope backed with practical action works best, and that fear and despair are very disempowering, while others say that a good scare never did anyone any harm, and will get people off their butts.

Greta Thunbergs statements and actions are a constant reminder of climate change and the need for rapid mitigation and adaptation. We can identify the Thunberg effect and the impact that this has had on the growth in carbon offsetting. Nevertheless, the Thunberg effect has had an as yet relatively small impact on climate change.. However, last December, a new virus was identified that was impacting on the population of Wuhan province, China. By 23 January, transportation going into and out of Wuhan had been stopped to reduce its spread. Since then, the onset of the coronavirus (or COVID-19) has been having an immediate and perhaps short-to medium-term impact on climate change. We can label this the COVID-19 effect. In contrast with the Thunberg effect, it is producing results that are arguably more important, immediate and effective.. The coronavirus outbreak has seen widespread changes in human behaviour, encouraging companies to alter everyday operations by suggesting employees work from ...

There are a couple of interesting things going on here. One is the tree trunk in the background. Another are the tiny (and I do mean TINY) new, green nandina leaves coming out of this red-leaved nandina twig, which I harvested at least two weeks before Christmas.

And a third interesting thing (to me) is the green money plant leaf, which I brought into the house stiff as a board (and, in fact, with a little mound of ice on it) this morning. It thawed without drooping. Way to go little leaf ...

Plantago asiatica mosaic virus (PlAMV) is a member of the genus Potexvirus and has an exceptionally wide host range. It causes severe damage to lilies. Here we report on the complete nucleotide sequences of two new Japanese PlAMV isolates, one from the eudicot weed Viola grypoceras (PlAMV-Vi), and the other from the eudicot shrub Nandina domestica Thunb. (PlAMV-NJ). Their genomes contain five open reading frames (ORFs), which is characteristic of potexviruses. Surprisingly, the isolates showed only 76.0-78.0 % sequence identity with each other and with other PlAMV isolates, including isolates from Japanese lily and American nandina. Amino acid alignments of the replicase coding region encoded by ORF1 showed that the regions between the methyltransferase and helicase domains were less conserved than other regions, with several insertions and/or deletions. Phylogenetic analyses of the full-length nucleotide sequences revealed a moderate correlation between phylogenetic clustering and the original ...

Diabetes mellitus is a disease that shows high blood glucose level. The disease is currently considered a worldwide problem and development of a method for treatment is highly required task. However, current medicines are developed on a intense to control blood glucose and prevent complications and thus, they are not suitable for completely curing the disease. In this study, bioactive compound that enhance the glucose uptake of muscle cells are studied as a candidate for diabetes mellitus curing compound. The function of the glucose uptake enhancer neohesperidose was revealed and several new glucose uptake enhancers including higenamine glucoside, hydroxylamine, unsaturated fatty acids, piperine were discovered. Also, the function of higenamine glucoside, hydroxylamine are revealed from inhibitor co-incubation experiment. ...

Background: Thymus vulgaris essential oil (Tv-EO) is known to have antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant activities. Encapsulation of Tv-EO in polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) can prevent volatilization of its components and can provide protection against external agents. Under these circumstances, it is crucial to assure the presence and quantity of the Tv-EO components (γ-terpinene, thymol, and carvacrol) in the NPs. Objective: To determine the chemical composition and physicochemical characterization of Tv-EO as well as develop and validate a HSPM-gas chromatography (GC) method for the analysis of Tv-EO components encapsulated in NPs. Materials and Methods: Tv-EO was characterized by physicochemical analysis for relative density, refractive index, and optical rotation and analyzed by GC flame ionization detector and GC-mass spectrometry. The headspace-solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography (HS-SPME-CG) validation was assessed, Tv-EO-NPs were prepared by nanoprecipitation, and its ...

Young Greta actually let the cat out of the bag herself back in the summer when she accidentally wore an Antifa shirt, supposedly by mistake. On her Twitter account, Greta claimed that she didnt realize that the shirt was advertising a violent domestic terrorist organization, and said she was sorry.. But this is difficult to believe seeing as how Gretas parents, Svante Thunberg and Malena Ernman, were captured in photos wearing the same exact shirt. We also now know that Malena, Gretas mother, is a popular Swedish opera singer whos well known for pushing extreme leftist causes.. Malena reportedly indoctrinated Greta from a very young age into believing that the world is going to end due to global warming, including by misleading Greta into believing that its somehow possible to see particles of carbon dioxide (CO2) floating in the air.. Because we know that Greta is on the autism spectrum, it makes sense that this formerly innocent child latched on to her mothers propaganda and made it her ...
