AS‐pHopt: An Optimal pH Prediction Model Enhanced by Active Site of Enzymes

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
To address the low accuracy of enzyme optimal pH (pHopt) prediction, this study develops active site‐based pHopt (AS‐pHopt), a prediction model enhanced by active site information and pseudo‐label prediction. Integrating key structural and physicochemical features affecting enzyme pHopt, AS‐pHopt uses Evolutionary Scale Modeling (ESM)‐2 with active ...

Salivary cortisol and alpha-amylase levels during an assessment procedure correlate differently with risk-taking measures in male and female police recruits

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2014
Recent laboratory studies have shown that men display more risk-taking behaviour in decision-making tasks following stress, whilst women are more risk-aversive or become more task-focussed.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Gut Health in Ostriches (Struthio camelus): Insights Into Intestinal Structure, Functions, Microbiome, and Improvement Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Our paper systematically reviews the intestinal structure, function, and microbiota of ostriches, along with strategies for improving their gut health. We analyze how these factors collectively influence intestinal homeostasis and ostrich welfare, emphasizing probiotics as a promising intervention to enhance gut health, boost population well‐being, and

Reversible occlusion of the pulmonary vasculature by transarterial embolisation with degradable starch microspheres: preclinical assessment in a human isolated lung perfusion model

European Radiology Experimental, 2022
Background Transpulmonary embolisation (TPE) using degradable starch microspheres (DSM) is a potential approach to treat pulmonary metastases. However, there is a paucity of detailed information on perfusion dynamics.

Determining the Nutritional Potential of Ancient Wheat Species: A Closer Look at Starch and Protein Digestibility, and Phenolic Acid Content

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives The recent trend towards healthy food choices and sustainable agriculture has revived interest in underutilized wheat species such as emmer, einkorn, and spelt. Given these developments, the objective of the study was to compare the differences in chemical composition and digestibility characteristics among ...

Effects of Wheat Bran‐Derived Arabinoxylan Oligosaccharides on Dough and Noodle‐Making Properties

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives This study investigates the structural modifications of arabinoxylan (AX) through enzymatic hydrolysis and evaluates the potential application of arabinoxylan oligosaccharides (AXOS) as functional ingredients in wheat noodles, contrasting their effects with those of native AX.

Characterizing Low Falling Number in the Absence of Elevated Alpha‐Amylase Activity in Soft White Wheat and the Impact on Japanese Sponge Cakes

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Non‐alpha‐amylase induced low falling number was identified in 2024 soft white wheat. The objectives of this work were to characterize these low falling number samples and determine the impact on end‐product quality. The results were analyzed to determine differences in flour characteristics that might result in a low
