Enzymatic browning: The role of substrates in polyphenol oxidase mediated browning

Current Research in Food Science, 2023
Enzymatic browning is a biological process that can have significant consequences for fresh produce, such as quality reduction in fruit and vegetables. It is primarily initiated by polyphenol oxidase (PPO) (EC 1.14.18.1 and EC 1.10.3.1) which catalyses ...

TSH promotes adiposity by inhibiting the browning of white fat

Adipocyte, 2020
Adiposity is caused by an imbalance between energy intake and consumption. Promotion of the browning of white fat increases energy expenditure and could combat adiposity.

6‐Gingerol induces browning of white adipose tissue to improve obesity through PI3K/AKT‐RPS6‐mediated thermogenesis pathway

Food Frontiers, 2023
The browning of white fat has become a hot topic as it could help to lose weight and improve metabolic health. Therefore, this study aims to explore the in vivo browning or thermogenesis effect of 6‐gingerol (6G), a natural bioactive compound of ginger ...

A Nanoflare Distribution Generated by Repeated Relaxations Triggered by Kink Instability [PDF]

, 2010
Context: It is thought likely that vast numbers of nanoflares are responsible for the corona having a temperature of millions of degrees. Current observational technologies lack the resolving power to confirm the nanoflare hypothesis.

Eugenol treatment delays the flesh browning of fresh-cut water chestnut (Eleocharis tuberosa) through regulating the metabolisms of phenolics and reactive oxygen species

Food Chemistry: X, 2022
The potential mechanism behind the browning inhibition in fresh-cut water chestnuts (FWC) after eugenol (EUG) treatment was investigated by comparing the difference in browning behavior between surface and inner tissues.

Cooperative production and efficiency [PDF]

, 2007
We characterize the sharing rule for which a contribution mechanism achieves efficiency in a cooperative production setting when agents are heterogeneous. The sharing rule bears no resemblance to those considered by the previous literature.

The Mechanism of White and Brown Adipocyte Differentiation [PDF]

Diabetes & 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.

The photoprotection mechanism in the black–brown pigment eumelanin

Proceedings 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.

Effects of Different Varieties on Physicochemical Properties, Browning Characteristics, and Quality Attributes of Mume fructus (Wumei)

Foods
The dried Mume fructus (MF) is a special food and herbal medicine with a long history of processing and application. The browning index (BI) of Prunus mume (PM) is pivotal in determining the medicinal value and edible quality of MF.

Spontaneous Browning of White Adipose Tissue Improves Angiogenesis and Reduces Macrophage Infiltration After Fat Grafting in Mice

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Background: Fat grafting is a frequently used technique; however, its survival/ regeneration mechanism is not fully understood. The browning of white adipocytes, a process initiated in response to external stimuli, is the conversion of white to beige ...
