Xylan epitope profiling: an enhanced approach to study organ development-dependent changes in xylan structure, biosynthesis, and deposition in plant cell walls

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background Xylan is a major hemicellulosic component in the cell walls of higher plants especially in the secondary walls of vascular cells which are playing important roles in physiological processes and overall mechanical strength.

Carbohydrate bioavailability [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Nutrition, 2005
There is consensus that carbohydrate foods, in the form of fruit, vegetables and whole-grain products, are beneficial to health. However, there are strong indications that highly processed, fibre-depleted, and consequently rapidly digestible, energy-dense carbohydrate food products can lead to over-consumption and obesity-related diseases.

Size distribution of barley kernels

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2009
Barley primarily serves as a major animal feed crop; smaller amounts of barley are used in health foods and in the malting process. Detailed geometric parameters of kernels are very important for the design of food engineering processes, such as the air ...

Polysaccharide dextran-based conjugate for selective co-delivery of two synergistic drugs docetaxel and docosahexaenoic acid to tumor cells

open access: yesDrug Delivery, 2023
Most chemotherapeutic agents are nonspecific distribution and cause systemic toxicities. Polysaccharide-based conjugates are promising strategies to overcome these drawbacks.

Cell surface glycan engineering reveals that matriglycan alone can recapitulate dystroglycan binding and function

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Matriglycan, a repeating disaccharide on α-dystroglycan, is the receptor for Lassa virus and specific extracellular matrix proteins. Here, the authors demonstrate that matriglycan, in a length-dependent tunable manner, is both necessary and sufficient ...
