Inhibition of Alpha-glucosidase and Amylase by Luteolin, a Flavonoid

Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2000
Twenty-one naturally occurring flavonoids were tested for inhibitory activities against alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) and alpha-amylase (EC 3.2.1.1). Luteolin, amentoflavone, luteolin 7-O-glucoside, and daidzein were the strongest inhibitors among the compounds tested.

Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...

A synthetic community promotes macadamia growth via root‐microbe interactions and systemic plant responses

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We employed an 18‐month pot experiment and an integrated multi‐omics approach to elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying synthetic community (SynCom)‐mediated macadamia growth promotion. SynCom inoculation enhanced soil nitrogen cycling and potential nutrient (e.g., iron) acquisition.

Polydatin Alleviates APAP‐Induced Hepatotoxicity by Targeting C/EBPβ to Suppress the NLRP3 Inflammasome Signaling Pathway

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
PD alleviates APAP‐induced ALI by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway. C/EBPβ is identified as a direct target via multimethod validation. PD promotes the deacetylation of C/EBPβ via Sirt1. The Sirt1/C/EBPβ/NLRP3 signaling axis is defined for PD's hepatoprotective effect.
