Role of the Antioxidant Lycopene in Bone Health: Emphasis on the RANKL/RANK/OPG Signaling Pathway

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Bone health may be maintained through several interconnected mechanisms attributed to lycopene including its potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, osteogenic, and anti‐resorptive actions. Lycopene may protect osteoblasts by reducing reactive oxygen species and stress‐mediated apoptosis.

High Methoxyl Pectin Consistently Reduces β‐Carotene Bioaccessibility Across Various Gastrointestinal Digestion Conditions

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 15, 17 August 2026.
High methoxyl pectin (HMP) significantly reduced β‐carotene bioaccessibility in vitro. This was observed at various enzyme/bile concentrations and shear forces. ABSTRACT Dietary fiber could inhibit β‐carotene bioaccessibility by restricting its release from the food matrix, interfering with digestive enzyme activities, binding bile salts, or modifying ...

Maize Biofortification Approaches for Fighting Malnutrition in Sub‐Saharan Africa

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Maize is a staple food in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA); however, commonly used maize varieties are deficient in essential nutrients, including lysine, tryptophan, vitamin A, and minerals such as iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). As a result, millions of people in this region suffer from one or more nutrient deficiencies that commonly lead to malnutrition ...
