The biological activity of beta-glucans
, 2009 This review summarizes the recent knowledge about the positive effect of betaglucans on human health. Beta-glucans are polysaccharides occurring in the bran of cereal grains (barley and oats and to a much lesser degree in rye and wheat, in amounts of ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Fluorinated β‐glucan/pectin nanogels enable colon‐targeted oral delivery of astilbin through gastrointestinal protection, β‐glucanase‐responsive release, mucus penetration, and prolonged retention. The released astilbin attenuates senescence‐associated features of CD4+ T cells and promotes Treg responses, while the nanogel matrix modulates the gut ...

Nutraceutical functions of beta-glucans in human nutrition
Roczniki Panstwowego Zakladu Higieny, 2019 Recent studies have shown that naturally occurring substances found in the food of the daily human diet are important for preventing chronic non-communicable diseases. One of them is beta-glucan, which is a natural polysaccharide, occurring in plant cell

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.Dietary fiber (DF) modulates meat quality through the gut‐muscle axis by reshaping gut microbiota, improving intestinal integrity, reducing inflammation, and regulating muscle metabolism. These mechanisms influence muscle fiber characteristics and post‐mortem biochemistry, thereby enhancing tenderness, juiciness, color, flavor, and nutritional value of

beta-1,3-glucan modifying enzymes in Aspergillus fumigatus
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 In Aspergillus fumigatus like in other filamentous ascomycetes, beta-1,3-glucan constitutes a prominent cell wall component being responsible for rigidity of the cell wall structure. In filamentous fungi, softening of the cell wall is absolutely required

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.In this study, we used cross‐species comparisons to identify ruminant hepatocyte features. We also identified potential genes and TFs involved in coordinating gluconeogenesis in ruminant hepatocytes. By integrating single‐cell data with population genetic analyses, we further identified candidate genetic variation in glucose metabolism and ...
