Novel Browning Agents, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Potentials of Brown Adipose Tissue [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2016
Nonshivering thermogenesis is the process of biological heat production in mammals and is primarily mediated by brown adipose tissue (BAT). Through ubiquitous expression of uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1) on the mitochondrial inner membrane, BAT displays uncoupling of fuel combustion and ATP production in order to dissipate energy as heat.

The formation mechanism of brown dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002
We present results from the first hydrodynamical star formation calculation to demonstrate that brown dwarfs are a natural and frequent product of the collapse and fragmentation of a turbulent molecular cloud. The brown dwarfs form via the fragmentation of dense molecular gas in unstable multiple systems and are ejected from the dense gas before they ...

Potential Metabolic Pathways and Related Processes Involved in Pericarp Browning for Postharvest Pomegranate Fruits

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2022
Pericarp browning occurs widely in postharvest pomegranate fruit, but little is known about its mechanism. In this study, ‘Baiyushizi’, a browning-sensitive cultivar, was used to investigate the physiological and genetic changes during pericarp browning.

Mechanisms associated with the depigmentation of brown eggshells: a review

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2021
Eggshell color is an important shell quality trait that influences consumer preference. It is also of particular importance with respect to sexual signaling and the physiological and mechanical properties of shell pigment. Pigments include protoporphyrin IX, biliverdin, and traces of biliverdin zinc chelates, with brown eggs being notably rich in ...

The photoprotection mechanism in the black–brown pigment eumelanin

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022
The natural black–brown pigment eumelanin protects humans from high-energy UV photons by absorbing and rapidly dissipating their energy before proteins and DNA are damaged. The extremely weak fluorescence of eumelanin points toward nonradiative relaxation on the timescale of picoseconds or shorter.

Multi-Omics Landscape of DNA Methylation Regulates Browning in “Fuji” Apple

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Browning seriously affects the quality of fresh-cut fruits, and its mechanism was thought to be polyphenol oxidase (PPO) in the past. A way of non-different PPO browning was found in our previous studies.

Research Progress in the Browning Mechanism of Apple Juice and Their Color Protection Mechanism by Antioxidants

open access: yesShipin gongye ke-ji, 2022
As the main processing product of apple in China, juice contributed great to the value-added of the industry. However, browning reaction is easy to occur during processing and storage, resulting in color instability, quality deterioration and reduced ...

Integration of Metabolome and Transcriptome Profiling Reveals the Effect of Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) on the Browning of Fresh-Cut Lanzhou Lily (Lilium davidii var. unicolor) Bulbs during Storage

open access: yesFoods, 2023
The fresh-cut bulbs of the Lanzhou lily (Lilium davidii var. unicolor) experience browning problems during storage. To solve the problem of browning in the preservation of Lanzhou lily bulbs, we first investigated the optimal storage temperature and gas ...

The Mechanism of White and Brown Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2013
Obesity gives vent to many diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, being considered as the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The pathogenesis and pathophysiology of metabolic syndrome can well be understood by studying the molecular mechanisms that control the development and function of adipose tissue.

Browning mechanism and process optimization during MaizeMaize KX7349 Drying

open access: yesJulius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
Browning of KX7349 maize during drying occurred mainly in the pericarp layer. Browning was caused by oxidation of water soluble matter in the pericarp layer. Moisture content had no significant influence on browning rate.
