Purification of DP 6 to 8 chitooligosaccharides by nanofiltration from the prepared chitooligosaccharides syrup [PDF]

open access: yesBioresources and Bioprocessing, 2014
Abstract Background Chitooligosaccharides (COS) with degrees of polymerization (DP) 6 to 8 are degraded from chitosan, which possess excellent bioactivities. However, technologies that could purify them from hydrolysis mixtures in the narrow DP range (984 to 1,306 Da) are absent.

Computer‐Aided Functional Oligosaccharide Screening and the Regulatory Role in Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the lipid‐lowering effects and intervention mechanisms of structurally diverse functional oligosaccharides on non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). By integrating computational tools such as molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations (MDS), a comprehensive “in silico‐in vitro‐in vivo” tri‐dimensional ...

Reactivation of wild-type and mutant p53 by tryptophanolderived oxazoloisoindolinone SLMP53-1:a novel anticancer small-molecule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Restoration of the p53 pathway, namely by reactivation of mutant (mut) p53, represents a valuable anticancer strategy. Herein, we report the identification of the enantiopure tryptophanol-derived oxazoloisoindolinone SLMP53-1 as a novel reactivator of ...

White Adipose Tissue Browning and Cross Talk With Metabolic Diseases and Tumors: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Translation

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
White adipose tissue undergoes browning under endogenous and exogenous stimuli, primarily regulated by core molecules such as PRDM16 and UCP1. It exhibits a double‐edged sword effect in metabolic diseases and tumors: while mitigating metabolic disease impacts and suppressing early‐stage tumors through nutritional competition, it may accelerate cachexia

Epigenetic regulation of mycorrhizal symbioses: from plastic responses to transgenerational legacies

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Mycorrhizal symbioses represent one of the most widespread and ecologically significant plant–microbe interactions, shaping plant nutrition, stress resilience, and ecosystem functioning. Beyond their role in nutrient exchange and systemic defense, growing evidence suggests that these symbioses also influence plant plasticity within and across ...

Protective Effect of the Naringin–Chitooligosaccharide Complex on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Systematic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Model in Mice

open access: yesFoods
Naringin is one of the common flavonoids in grapefruit, which has anti-cancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. However, its poor solubility limits its wide application.
