However, little is known about its underlying mechanism of action. In this study, RNA sequencing was conducted to analyze and compare the transcriptome profiles of SA-treated and control pear fruits. We found a total of 159 and 419 genes differentially expressed between the SA-treated and control pear fruits after 12 and 24 h of treatment, respectively. Among these differentially expressed genes(DEGs), 125 genes were continuously differentially expressed at both treatment times, and they were identified as candidate genes that might be associated with SA-regulated fruit ripening and senescence. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that 125 DEGs were mainly associated with plant hormone biosynthesis and metabolism, cell wall metabolism and modification, antioxidant systems, and senescence-associated transcription factors. Additionally, the expression of several candidate DEGs in ripening and senescent pear fruits after SA treatments were further validated by quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR). This study provides valuable information and enhances the understanding of the comprehensive mechanisms of SA-meditated pear fruit ripening and senescence.展开更多

For this purpo...In this study, we proposed a rapid and sensitive method for quantification and spatial distribution of salicylic acid in film tablets using FT-Raman spectroscopy with multivariate curve resolution(MCR). For this purpose, the constituents of film tablets were identified by using FT-Raman spectroscopy, and then eight different concentrations of salicylic acid tablets were visualized by Raman mapping. MCR was applied to mapping data to expose the active pharmaceutical ingredients in the presence of other excipients by monitoring distribution maps and combination of FT-Raman mapping with MCR enabled the determination of lower salicylic acid concentrations. In addition, the distribution of major excipient, lactose, was examined in the tablet form. A calibration curve was obtained by plotting the intensity of the Raman signal at 1635 cm^(-1) versus the concentration of salicylic acid and the correlation was found to be linear within the range of 0.5%–3.9% with a correlation coefficient of 0.99. The limit of detection for the technique was determined 0.35%. The ability of the technique to quantify salicylic acid in tablet test samples was also investigated.展开更多

Objectives: This study compared the clinical efficacy and safety of 30% SA peeling and IEG in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris. Methods: Patients with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris were randomized into 3 groups of 30 persons each, and treated with SA peel, or IEG, or SA combine with IEG (SA + IEG group). Evaluation of acne was done by effective rate and individual lesion counts. And the adverse effects and recurrence were recorded. Results: The SA + IEG group was better in clinical efficacy and treating noninflammatory and inflammatory lesions than that of single treatment group (P 0.05). Conclusion: 30% SA combined with IEG had a significant effect in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acne lesions.展开更多

The antioxidant mechanism for the compounds studied here was performed by molecular modeling using quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP level of theory. Our results show that the paracetamol has more antioxidant properties than the salicylic acid in experimental and theoretical studies. The theoretical mechanism show that the hydrogen transfer is more favorable than the electron transfer. From the study it was concluded that the electron abstraction for paracetamol is more favored than salicylic acid.展开更多

文摘Strawberry is a major fruit crop worldwide because its nutritional and health benefits to human health,but its productivity is limited by Botrytis cinerea.Sucrose nonfermentation 1-related protein kinase 1(SnRK1)has a defense function against pathogens,but the function of SnRK1 in the defense response to B.cinerea in plants is still unclear.In this study,FaSnRK1a-OE and RNAi fruits were constructed and then inoculated with B.cinerea.The result reveals a positive role of Fa SnRK1a in the regulation of resistance to gray mold.FaSnRK1a affects SA content by regulating FaPAL1 and FaPAL2 expressions.The genes related to the SA signaling pathway(FaTGA1 and FaTGA2.1)were significantly increased/decreased in FaSnRK1a-OE or FaSnRK1a-RNAi fruit,respectively.FaSnRK1a interacted with the FaWRKY33.2 protein and negatively regulated FaWRKY33.2 expression,and FaWRKY33.2 acts as a repressor of disease resistance to B.cinerea.Finally,FaSnRK1a regulates the expression of six PR genes and the activities of antioxidant enzymes to boost defense response after B.cinerea inoculation.Our findings showed that FaSnRK1a increases the resistance of strawberry fruit to B.cinerea via SA signaling pathway and interaction with the FaWRKY33.2 transcription factor.

文摘Salicylic acid(SA)is an effective elicitor to promote plant defenses and growth.This study aimed to investigate rice(Oryza sativa L.)cv.Khao Dawk Mali 105 treated with salicylic acid(SA)-Ricemate as an enhanced plant protection mechanism against bacterial leaf blight(BLB)disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae(Xoo).Results indicated that the use of SA-Ricemate as a foliar spray at concentrations of more than 100 mg L^(-1)can reduce the severity of BLB disease by 71%.SA-Ricemate treatment also increased the hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))content of rice leaf tissues over untreated samples by 39–61%.Malondialdehyde(MDA)in rice leaves treated with SA-Ricemate also showed an increase of 50–65%when comparing to non-treated samples.The differential development of these defense compounds was faster and distinct when the SA-Ricemate-treated rice was infected with Xoo,indicating plant-induced resistance.Besides,SA-Ricemate elicitor at a concentration of 50–250 mg L^(-1)was correlated with a substantial increase in the accumulation of total chlorophyll content at 2.53–2.73 mg g^(-1)of fresh weight which suggests that plant growth is activated by SA-Ricemate.The catalase-and aldehyde dehydrogenase-binding sites were searched for using the CASTp server,and the findings were compared to the template.Chemsketch was used to design and optimize SA,which was then docked to the catalase and aldehyde dehydrogenase-binding domains of the enzymes using the GOLD 3.0.1 Software.SA is shown in several docked conformations with the enzymes catalase and aldehyde dehydrogenase.All three catalase amino acids(GLN7,VAL27,and GLU38)were discovered to be involved in the creation of a strong hydrogen bond with SA when SA was present.In this mechanism,the aldehyde dehydrogenase amino acids LYS5,HIS6,and ASP2 were all implicated,and these amino acids created strong hydrogen bonds with SA.In field conditions,SA-Ricemate significantly reduced disease severity by 78%and the total grain yield was significantly increased which was an increase of plant height,tiller per hill,and panicle in three field trials during Aug–Nov 2017 and 2018.Therefore,SA-Ricemate can be used as an alternative elicitor on replacing harmful pesticides to control BLB disease with a high potential of increasing rice defenses,growth,and yield components.

文摘Sugarcane smut caused by Sporisorium scitamineum is a destructive disease responsible for significant losses in sugarcane production worldwide.However,the mechanisms underlying the pathogenicity of this fungus remain largely unknown.In this study,we found that the disruption of the SsRSS1 gene,which encodes a salicylic acid(SA)sensing regulator,does not affect phenotypic traits such as the morphology,growth rate,and sexual mating ability of haploid basidiospores,but rather reduces the tolerance of basidiospores to SA stress by blocking the induction of SsSRG1,a gene encoding a SA response protein in S.scitamineum.SsRSS1 deletion resulted in the attenuation of the virulence of the fungus.In addition to a significant reduction in whip formation,a portion of plantlets(18.3%)inoculated with theΔSsRSS1 strains were found to be infected but failed to produce whips for up to 90 days post-inoculation.However,the development of hyphae and teliospore from theΔSsRSS1-infected plants that formed whips seemed indistinguishable from that in the wild-type-infected plants.Combined,our findings suggested that SsRss1 is required for maintaining fungal fitness in planta by counteracting SA stress.
文摘Drought is a severe environmental constraint,causing a significant reduction in crop productivity across the world.Salicylic acid(SA)is an important plant growth regulator that helps plants cope with the adverse effects induced by various abiotic stresses.The current study investigated the potential effects of SA on drought tolerance efficacy in two barley(Hordeum vulgare)genotypes,namely BARI barley 5 and BARI barley 7.Ten-day-old barley seedlings were exposed to drought stress by maintaining 7.5%soil moisture content in the absence or presence of 0.5,1.0 and 1.5 mM SA.Drought exposure led to severe damage to both genotypes,as indicated by phenotypic aberrations and reduction of dry biomass.On the other hand,the application of SA to drought-stressed plants protected both barley genotypes from the adverse effects of drought,which was reflected in the improvement of phenotypes and biomass production.SA supplementation improved relative water content and proline levels in drought-stressed barley genotypes,indicating the osmotic adjustment functions of SA under water-deficit conditions.Drought stress induced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species(ROS),such as hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)and superoxide(O_(2)•^(−)),and the lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde(MDA)in the leaves of barley plants.Exogenous supply of SA reduced oxidative damage by restricting the accumulation of ROS through the stimulation of the activities of key antioxidant enzymes,including superoxide dismutase(SOD),peroxidase(POD),catalase(CAT),ascorbate peroxidase(APX)and glutathione peroxidase(GPX).Among the three-applied concentrations of SA,0.5 mM SA exhibited better mitigating effects against drought stress considering the phenotypic performance and biochemical data.Furthermore,BARI barley 5 showed better performance under drought stress than BARI barley 7 in the presence of SA application.Collectively,our results suggest that SA played a crucial role in improving water status and antioxidant defense strategy to protect barley plants from the deleterious effects of water deficiency.
文摘Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of 30%supramolecular salicylic acid combined with Yufa spray dressing in the treatment of moderate to severe seborrheic dermatitis(seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp,SDS).Methods:From January 2020 to December 2021,150 patients with SDS,who were treated in the Dermatology Clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Medical University,were randomly divided into two groups,a treatment group and a control group,with 75 cases in each group.The treatment group was given 30%supramolecular salicylic acid combined with Yufa spray dressing on the basis of external medicine given to the control group,while the control group was given oral medicine combined with external medicine.Results:The difference in scores of erythema,scales,pruritus,and folliculitis of the treatment group before and after treatment was significant(P<0.01),indicating that supramolecular salicylic acid combined with Yufa spray dressing can relieve the symptoms of SDS.The difference in scores of erythema of the control group before and after treatment was significant as well(P<0.05),indicating that traditional antibiotics are also effective in treating SDS;however,there was no significant difference(P>0.05)in the scores of other signs and symptoms,such as scales,pruritus,and folliculitis,before and after treatment,indicating that traditional antibiotics have no obvious curative effect on SDS.After 12 weeks of treatment,the improvement in erythema,scaling,and folliculitis was significantly greater in the treatment group compared with the control group(P<0.05).Curative effect comparison showed that the total effective rate of the treatment group was 80.00%,compared with 25.67%of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:30%supramolecular salicylic acid combined with Yufa spray dressing can significantly improve the therapeutic effect in moderate to severe SDS;the recurrence rate is lower,the course of treatment is shorted,and patients generally feel better;thus,it is a new option for the treatment of dermatitis.
文摘In this study,advanced oxidation processes(AOPs) such as anodic oxidation(AO),UV/H_2O_2 and Fenton processes(FP) were investigated for the degradation of salicylic acid(SA) in lab-scale experiments.Boron-doped diamond(BDD) film electrodes using Ta as substrates were employed for AO of SA.In the case of FP and UV/H_2O_2,most favorable experimental conditions were determined for each process and these were used for comparing with AO process.The study showed that the FP was the most effective process under ...

文摘Salicylic acid(SA) plays a pivotal role in delaying fruit ripening and senescence. However, little is known about its underlying mechanism of action. In this study, RNA sequencing was conducted to analyze and compare the transcriptome profiles of SA-treated and control pear fruits. We found a total of 159 and 419 genes differentially expressed between the SA-treated and control pear fruits after 12 and 24 h of treatment, respectively. Among these differentially expressed genes(DEGs), 125 genes were continuously differentially expressed at both treatment times, and they were identified as candidate genes that might be associated with SA-regulated fruit ripening and senescence. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that 125 DEGs were mainly associated with plant hormone biosynthesis and metabolism, cell wall metabolism and modification, antioxidant systems, and senescence-associated transcription factors. Additionally, the expression of several candidate DEGs in ripening and senescent pear fruits after SA treatments were further validated by quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR). This study provides valuable information and enhances the understanding of the comprehensive mechanisms of SA-meditated pear fruit ripening and senescence.

文摘In this study, we proposed a rapid and sensitive method for quantification and spatial distribution of salicylic acid in film tablets using FT-Raman spectroscopy with multivariate curve resolution(MCR). For this purpose, the constituents of film tablets were identified by using FT-Raman spectroscopy, and then eight different concentrations of salicylic acid tablets were visualized by Raman mapping. MCR was applied to mapping data to expose the active pharmaceutical ingredients in the presence of other excipients by monitoring distribution maps and combination of FT-Raman mapping with MCR enabled the determination of lower salicylic acid concentrations. In addition, the distribution of major excipient, lactose, was examined in the tablet form. A calibration curve was obtained by plotting the intensity of the Raman signal at 1635 cm^(-1) versus the concentration of salicylic acid and the correlation was found to be linear within the range of 0.5%–3.9% with a correlation coefficient of 0.99. The limit of detection for the technique was determined 0.35%. The ability of the technique to quantify salicylic acid in tablet test samples was also investigated.

文摘Background:Verticillium wilt,caused by the soil-borne fungus of Verticillium dahliae Kleb.,is one of the most devastating diseases of cotton.The complex mechanism underlying cotton resistance to Verticillium wilt remains uncharacterized.Identifying an endogenous resistance gene may be helpful to control this disease.Previous studies revealed that succinate dehydrogenase(SDH)is involved in reactive oxygen species(ROS)-induced stress signaling pathway that is likely to be triggered by salicylic acid(SA).Here,through the metabolomics and differential expression analyses in wilt-inoculated cotton(Gossypium hirsutum),we noticed that Gh SDH1–1 gene in cotton may play an important role in the resistance to V.dahlia.Then we reported Gh SDH1–1 gene and its functional analysis in relation to the resistance of cotton to V.dahliae.Results:The Gh SDH1–1 gene in cotton root was significantly up-regulated after V.dahlia inoculation,and its expression level peaked at 12 and 24 h post-infection.SA can also induce the up-regulation of Gh SDH1–1.Additionally,the functional analysis showed that Gh SDH1–1-silenced cotton was more susceptible to V.dahliae than the control because of the significant decrease in abundance of immune-related molecules and severe damage to the SA-signaling pathway.In Arabidopsis thaliana,high expression of Gh SDH1–1 conferred high resistance to V.dahliae.Arabidopsis that overexpressed Gh SDH1–1 had higher resistance to V.dahliae infection compared with the wild-type.Conclusions:Our findings provide new insights into the role of Gh SDH1–1;it positively regulates cotton resistance to Verticillium wilt.The regulatory mechanism of Gh SDH1–1 is closely related to SA-related signaling pathway.

文摘In nature,plants are constantly affected by adverse conditions.Unlike animals,plants can resist these adverse stresses only by insisting on their original positions.Stress can be divided into biological stress and abiotic stress,abiotic stress directly affects the growth,development and yield of plants,it spans all developmental stages from seed germination to senescence.In order to adapt to changing environment,plants have evolved well-developed mechanisms that help to perceive the stress signals and enable optimal growth response.Salicylic acid(SA)is an important endogenous signal molecule in plants,which not only regulate some plant growth and development processes,but also plays an important part in plant stress resistance.Much work about salicylic acid has been done on the immunity of plants to pathogens,and the synthesis and signal transduction of SA are clearly understood,its function in plant growth,development and abiotic stress is also well learned,we systemically summarized the multiple function of SA signal in non-pathogen-related response,such review should help us understand the common but essential function of SA signal in modulating plant growth,development and abiotic stress.
文摘Background: Both 30% supramolecular salicylic acid (SA) and isotretinoin erythromycin gel (IEG) have proven efficacy with good safety profiles in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Objectives: This study compared the clinical efficacy and safety of 30% SA peeling and IEG in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris. Methods: Patients with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris were randomized into 3 groups of 30 persons each, and treated with SA peel, or IEG, or SA combine with IEG (SA + IEG group). Evaluation of acne was done by effective rate and individual lesion counts. And the adverse effects and recurrence were recorded. Results: The SA + IEG group was better in clinical efficacy and treating noninflammatory and inflammatory lesions than that of single treatment group (P 0.05). Conclusion: 30% SA combined with IEG had a significant effect in the treatment of moderate-to-severe acne lesions.
文摘The paracetamol has more antioxidant properties than the salicylic acid on the several oxidative stress-forced models and one possible mechanism is due to electron or hydrogen transfer by the evaluated hydroxyl radicals. The antioxidant mechanism for the compounds studied here was performed by molecular modeling using quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP level of theory. Our results show that the paracetamol has more antioxidant properties than the salicylic acid in experimental and theoretical studies. The theoretical mechanism show that the hydrogen transfer is more favorable than the electron transfer. From the study it was concluded that the electron abstraction for paracetamol is more favored than salicylic acid.

文摘The phytohormone salicylic acid(SA)regulates biotic and abiotic stress responses in plants.Two distinct biosynthetic pathways for SA have been well documented in plants:the isochorismate(IC)pathway in the chloroplast and the phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL)pathway in the cytosol.However,there has been no solid evidence that the PAL pathway contributes to SA biosynthesis.Here,we report that feeding Arabidopsis thaliana with Ring-13C-labeled phenylalanine(13C6-Phe)resulted in incorporation of the13C label not into SA,but into its isomer 4-hydroxybenzoic acid(4-HBA)instead.We obtained similar results when feeding13C6-Phe to the SA-deficient ics1 ics2 mutant and the SA-hyperaccumulating mutant s3h s5h.Notably,we detected13C6-SA when13C6-benzoic acid(BA)was provided,suggesting that SA can be synthesized from BA.Furthermore,despite the substantial accumulation of SA upon pathogen infection,we did not observe incorporation of13C label from Phe into SA.We also did not detect13C6-SA in PAL-overexpressing lines in the kfb01 kfb02 kfb39 kfb50 background after being fed13C6-Phe,although endogenous PAL levels were dramatically increased.Based on these combined results,we propose that SA biosynthesis is not from Phe in Arabidopsis.These results have important implications for our understanding of the SA biosynthetic pathway in land plants.

文摘Salicylic acid(SA)plays a pivotal role in plant response to biotic and abiotic stress.Several core SA signaling regulators and key proteins in SA biosynthesis have been well characterized.However,much remains unknown about the origin,evolution,and early diversification of core elements in plant SA signaling and biosynthesis.In this study,we identified 10 core protein families in SA signaling and biosynthesis across green plant lineages.We found that the key SA signaling receptors,the nonexpresser of pathogenesis-related(NPR)proteins,originated in the most recent common ancestor(MRCA)of land plants and formed divergent groups in the ancestor of seed plants.However,key transcription factors for SA signaling,TGACG motif-binding proteins(TGAs),originated in the MRCA of streptophytes,arguing for the stepwise evolution of core SA signaling in plants.Different from the assembly of the core SA signaling pathway in the ancestor of seed plants,SA exists extensively in green plants,including chlorophytes and streptophyte algae.However,the full isochorismate synthase(ICS)-based SA synthesis pathway was first assembled in the MRCA of land plants.We further revealed that the ancient abnormal inflorescence meristem 1(AIM1)-basedβ-oxidation pathway is crucial for the biosynthesis of SA in chlorophyte algae,and this biosynthesis pathway may have facilitated the adaptation of early-diverging green algae to the high-light-intensity environment on land.Taken together,our findings provide significant insights into the early evolution and diversification of plant SA signaling and biosynthesis pathways,highlighting a crucial role of SA in stress tolerance during plant terrestrialization.

文摘Salicylic acid(SA),a defense hormone produced after pathogen challenge,is critical for plant immunity.Arabidopsis NONEXPRESSER OF PR GENES 1(NPR1)and its paralogs NPR3 and NPR4 can bind SA and mediate SA signal transduction.NPR1 functions as a transcriptional co-activator to promote defense gene expression,whereas NPR3 and NPR4 have been shown to function as negative regulators in the SA signaling pathway.Although the mechanism about NPR1 regulation has been well studied,how NPR3/NPR4 proteins are regulated in immune responses remains largely unknown.Here,we show that the stability of NPR3/NPR4 is enhanced by SA.In the absence of pathogen challenge,NPR3/NPR4 are unstable and degraded by the 26S proteasome,whereas the increase in cellular SA levels upon pathogen infection suppresses NPR3/NPR4 degradation.We found that UBP12 and UBP13,two homologous deubiquitinases from a ubiquitin-specific protease subfamily,negatively regulate plant immunity by promoting NPR3/NPR4 stability.Our genetic results further showed that UBP12/UBP13-mediated immunity suppression is partially dependent on NPR3/NPR4 functions.By interacting with NPR3 in the nucleus in an SA-dependent manner,UBP12 and UBP13 remove ubiquitin from polyubiquitinated NPR3 to protect it from being degraded.The stabilization of NPR3/NPR4 promoted by UBP12/UBP13 is essential for negative regulation of basal and SA-induced immunity.

文摘Interfacial defect is one of the main hurdles to impede the improvement of efficiency and stability of perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Additionally,the ultraviolet(UV)irradiate induces the generation of deep defects,and further accelerate the decomposition of perovskite films.Thus,the interfacial modification is crucial to improve the ef-ficiency and stability of PSCs.Here,the salicylic acid(SA)as a multifunctional interface material is employed to modify the interface of mesoporous cerium oxide(m-CeO_(x))and perovskite.The introduced SA molecules can interact with Ce in m-CeO_(x)and Pb in perovskite through carboxylic acid functional groups to passivate interfacial defects and promote interfacial electron extraction and transport.The PSC with SA modification exhibits an improved power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 23.33%.More importantly,the SA can absorb UV light and reduce the damage of UV light to perovskite film,then improving the UV stability and overall stability of devices.This work provides a novel insight to design the interfacial modification materials for preparing efficient and stable PSCs.

文摘Auxin is throughout the entire life process of plants and is involved in the crosstalk with other hormones,yet its role in apple disease resistance remains unclear.In this study,we investigated the function of auxin/indole-3-acetic acid(IAA)gene Md IAA24 overexpression in enhancing apple resistance to Glomerella leaf spot(GLS)caused by Colletotrichum fructicola(Cf).Analysis revealed that,upon Cf infection,35S::Md IAA24 plants exhibited enhanced superoxide dismutase(SOD)and peroxidase(POD)activity,as well as a greater amount of glutathione(reduced form)and ascorbic acid accumulation,resulting in less H_(2)O_(2)and superoxide anion(O_(2)^(-))in apple leaves.Furthermore,35S::Md IAA24 plants produced more protocatechuic acid,proanthocyanidins B1,proanthocyanidins B2 and chlorogenic acid when infected with Cf.Following Cf infection,35S::Md IAA24 plants presented lower levels of IAA and jasmonic acid(JA),but higher levels of salicylic acid(SA),along with the expression of related genes.The overexpression of Md IAA24 was observed to enhance the activity of chitinase andβ-1,3-glucanase in Cfinfected leaves.The results indicated the ability of Md IAA24 to regulate the crosstalk between IAA,JA and SA,and to improve reactive oxygen species(ROS)scavenging and defense-related enzymes activity.This jointly contributed to GLS resistance in apple.

文摘Both bottle-point and column-feeding experi-ments involving different solutes and sorbents were carried out to investigate the adsorption selectivity and separation performance of salicylic acid and 5-sulfosalicylic acid.Their adsorption isotherms onto such hypercrosslinked polymeric adsorbents as NDA-100 and NDA-99 could be well described by the Freundlich equations whose characteristics describe extrathermic and favorable adsorption processes.The adsorp-tion towards NDA-100 mainly depended on the p-p interac-tion,while that towards NDA-99 was extremely influenced by the static-electric interaction.Additionally,the adsorptive capacity of salicylic acid on NDA-99 decreased while it increased on NDA-100 with the presence of 5-sulfosalicylic acid in the adsorptive environment as the competitive component.Comparatively,the adsorption capacity of 5-sulfosalicylic acid decreased on both resins with salicylic acid as the competitive component.In fact,the difference in the interaction between adsorbent and adsorbate resulted in the straight antagonism on the effective adsorption sites on the adsorbent.In conclusion,the adsorption selectivity of salicylic acid onto NDA-100 was obviously larger than that onto NDA-99 with the existence of 5-sulfosalicylic acid in the adsorptive environment.A satisfactory separation and recovery of tested solutes in aqueous phase could be foresee-ably achieved by the sequencing adsorption technique involving NDA-100 as well as NDA-99.
