Partial Purification and Characterization of Five á-amylases from a Wheat Local Variety (Balady) During Germination

open access: yes, 2009
: A local Saudi Arabian wheat (Triticum aestivum) variety (Balady) showed high levels of amylolytic activities at different stages of germination. The activity of á-amylase increased from day 0 to day 6 of germination, where it exhibited its highest ...

High‐pressure homogenization and pH‐shifting modification of hazelnut protein isolates: Functional enhancement, allergenicity reduction, and probiotic microencapsulation performance

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plant‐based proteins, such as hazelnut protein isolates (HPIs), often exhibit limited solubility and functionality, as well as allergenic potential, thereby limiting their applicability in food products. This investigation sought to improve the techno‐functional characteristics of HPI and mitigate its allergenicity via high‐pressure

Advantages of low‐glycaemic‐index carbohydrates in regulating glycaemic response of energy bar: A review

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy bars are widely consumed functional foods among athletes and physically active consumers who require convenient sources of sustained energy. Their carbohydrate composition, particularly the type and ratio of digestible sugars such as glucose, fructose and sucrose, strongly influences glycaemic index (GI), postprandial blood glucose ...

Bio‐guided fractionation of (9Z)‐5,8,11‐trihydroxyoctadec‐9‐enoic acid from Abelmoschus sagittifolius root as a potent α‐glucosidase inhibitor: An integrated in vitro and in silico study

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Abelmoschus sagittifolius stands out as a valuable medicinal source for developing functional food targeting type 2 diabetes. This study investigated the α‐glucosidase inhibitory potential of an active fraction obtained from A. sagittifolius roots (ASR), enriched in (9Z)‐5,8,11‐trihydroxyoctadec‐9‐enoic acid (OA), using both enzyme ...

Binding of carbohydrates and protein inhibitors to the surface of alpha-amylases

open access: yes, 2005
This review on barley alpha-amylases 1 (AMY1) and 2 (AMY2) addresses rational mutations at distal subsites to the catalytic site, polysaccharide hydrolysis, and interactions with proteinaceous inhibitors. Subsite mapping of barley alpha-amylases revealed

miR‐9 Restricts Insulin Secretion by Targeting Rab34, Which Mediates Lysosomal Degradation of Proinsulin

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin secretion is a complex, vesicular transport process. Rab34 is a key regulator of intracellular vesicle transport; however, its role in insulin secretion has not yet been reported. miRNA‐9 is vital for the development and progression of the diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to investigate whether miR‐9 targets

Exocrine Gland Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: Pathophysiology, Clinical Manifestations, and Therapeutic Perspectives—A Narrative Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Osmolality of fortified human milk with contemporary human milk fortifiers

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Human milk fortification is critical to support preterm infant growth. Human milk fortifed to caloric densities above manufacturers’ recommendations are often necessary to achieve adequate growth. Fortified milk may be prepared 12–24 h before feeding, although practice variations exist.
