Dried honeybee podmore was evaluated as a sustainable functional food ingredient. The extract showed high protein, lipids, balanced amino acids, chitin, chitosan, minerals, phenolics, and flavonoids. It exhibited antioxidant activity, inhibited pancreatic lipase and alpha glucosidase, and enhanced insulin secretion in MIN6 beta cells, supporting ...

Molecular dynamics simulations of oleuropein diffusion in chitosan‐based nanoparticles
Abstract BACKGROUND This study explores the diffusion mechanisms of oleuropein (OLE), a promising polyphenolic compound, within chitosan‐based nanoparticles using molecular dynamics simulations. Chitosan nanoparticles serve as drug delivery carriers, leveraging biocompatibility and tunable release properties influenced by environmental factors such as ...

The Biological Roles of Class II Hydrophobins at the Cell Wall of Filamentous Ascomycetes
ABSTRACT One of the most elusive aspects of fungal cell wall biology has been dilucidating the specific functions of most cell wall proteins. Class II hydrophobins are small amphipathic proteins produced exclusively by filamentous ascomycetes. A comparative synthesis of their biological functions across species has been lacking for this specific group ...

From Rhizosphere to Resistance: Microbe‐Plant Interactions in Eco‐Smart Biocontrol
Conceptual framework of eco‐smart biocontrol: Root exudates released by plants shape rhizosphere microbial community assembly by selectively recruiting beneficial microorganisms. These microbes suppress phytopathogens through direct mechanisms such as antibiosis, parasitism, enzyme production, and niche competition, while simultaneously activating ...
