The relevance of dipeptides and tripeptides in the bioactivity and taste of dry-cured ham
Food Production, Processing and Nutrition, 2019 Dry-cured ham has been described as a good source of bioactive peptides and taste-active compounds. Some of them are dipeptides and tripeptides that are released in a large amount from different muscle proteins due to the action of exopeptidases during ...

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not
