Rheological characterization of the thermal gelation of cowpea protein isolates: Effect of pretreatments with high hydrostatic pressure or calcium addition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Pretreatments with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) or calcium addition were assessed for thermal gelation of two cowpea protein isolates (protein extraction at pHs 8.0, standard (A8) or 10.0, pH-shifting-modified (A10).

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Different dissipation potential and dietary risk assessment of tristyrylphenol ethoxylates in cowpea ecosystem in China

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Tristyrylphenol ethoxylates (TSPEOn) are widely used as inert ingredients in pesticide formulations in the world. However, the information on the dissipation behavior of different homologs TSPEOn in agro-products is lacking.

The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...
