Glycaemic sugar metabolism and the gut microbiota: past, present and future
Increased sugar consumption is a main driver of the increased prevalence of obesity and non‐communicable diseases (NCDs). Therefore, understanding host and microbial sugar metabolism and its metabolic effects is crucial. A high‐sugar diet can induce gut dysbiosis, and gut microbial sugar fermentation can produce deleterious metabolites, potentially ...

Measuring catalytic mechanism similarity – a new approach to study enzyme function and evolution
We introduce a previously undescribed computational method to measure the similarity of enzyme mechanisms, enabling comparison of catalytic steps across hundreds of enzymes. Applying this method to a database of enzyme mechanisms demonstrated its ability to automatically uncover functional and evolutionary relationships, independently of sequence and ...

Nutritional value and fermentability of sorghum silages grown in the Amazon biome
Abstract In recent years, agricultural production systems have intensified, making it necessary to improve the food supplied to animals, where sorghum silage is one of the most commonly used roughages. The sorghum genotypes present significant differences in dry matter losses, fermentative profiles and nutritional values, allowing the identification of

Pancreatic congestion is associated with exocrine pancreatic function in liver cirrhosis
Abstract Aim Portal hypertension resulting from liver cirrhosis (LC) can lead to pancreatic congestion and impaired insulin secretion. Therefore, this prospective study aimed to assess the association between pancreatic congestion and exocrine pancreatic function in patients with LC.
