Chitin‐induced and CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE1 (CERK1) phosphorylation‐dependent endocytosis of Arabidopsis thaliana LYSIN MOTIF‐CONTAINING RECEPTOR‐LIKE KINASE5 (LYK5)

open access: yes, 2017
To detect potential pathogens, plants perceive the fungal polysaccharide chitin through receptor complexes containing lysin motif receptor-like kinases (LysM-RLKs).

Biopolymer composites from agri‐food wastes and by‐products: valorization, fabrication, and food related applications

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Agri‐food wastes and by‐products are transformed into sustainable biopolymer composites through extraction, modification, and advanced fabrication technologies. These value‐added materials exhibit enhanced mechanical, barrier, antimicrobial, and biodegradable properties, enabling applications in food packaging, edible coatings, and preservation systems

Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

The molecular mechanisms of Knickkopf and Retroactive proteins in organization and protection of chitin in the newly synthesized insect exoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yes
Doctor of PhilosophyDepartment of BiochemistrySubbaratnam MuthukrishnanIn order to grow and develop, insects must undergo a process of molting, wherein the old cuticle is replaced with a new one.

Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...

Safety Assessment and Hypoglycemic Effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. Seed Lectin (WSMoL) in Alloxan‐Induced Diabetic Mice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moringa oleifera Lam. seeds contain WSMoL, a lectin previously studied for toxicity and pharmacological effects. In this study, we investigated WSMoL (10, 25, or 50 mg/kg i.p.) for acute and 14‐day repeated‐dose toxicity, as well as genotoxicity, in Swiss mice.

Microbial mineralization rates of chitin in a freshwater habitat, and purification of the chitinase complex from Pseudomonas sp.

open access: yes, 1983
Microbial action on particulate chitin was analyzed in an eastcentral Indiana borrow pit lake. Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of water depth, particle size, mesh size of nylon bag containing chitin, and season on the decomposition ...

Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

Role of Chitinases in Human Stomach for Chitin Digestion: AMCase in the Gastric Digestion of Chitin and Chit in Gastric Pathologies.

open access: yes, 2009
Chitin-containing food is an interesting but underestimated source of locally available, in most cases sustainable, food although chitin digestion by humans has generally been questioned or denied.
