Effects of Sourdough on FODMAPs in Bread and Potential Outcomes on Irritable Bowel Syndrome Patients and Healthy Subjects

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Background: Fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAPs) are an heterogeneous group of compounds that can be poorly digested and may have a range of effects on gastrointestinal processes.

Conformational Characterization of Ipomotaosides and Their Recognition by COX-1 and 2

Molecules, 2014
The aerial parts of Ipomoea batatas are described herein to produce four new resin glycosides, designated as ipomotaosides A, B, C, and D. Ipomotaoside A was found to present inhibitory activity on both cyclooxygenases.

Exploring the Pharmacological Potential of Carrageenan Disaccharides as Antitumor Agents: An In Silico Approach

Marine Drugs
Carrageenans have demonstrated enhanced antitumor activity upon depolymerization into disaccharides. However, the pharmacological viability of these disaccharides and their mechanisms of antitumor action remains to be fully elucidated.

Chondroitin Sulfate Disaccharides, a Serum Marker for Primary Serous Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Diagnostics, 2021
Glycosaminoglycans are long polysaccharidic chains, which are mostly present in connective tissues. Modified GAG expression in tissues surrounding malignant cells has been shown to contribute to tumor progression, aggressive status and metastasis in many

Effect of r-Human Insulin (Humulin^®) and Sugars on Escherichia coli K-12 Biofilm Formation

Applied Microbiology
E. coli attaches to, and forms biofilms on various surfaces, including latex and polystyrene, contributing to nosocomial spread. E. coli responds to both exogenous and endogenous insulin, which induces behavioral changes.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Total Chemical Synthesis of Interleukin‐15 and Interleukin‐2: Taming Protein Hydrophobicity and Aggregation by a Versatile Solubilizing Strategy

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A reducible solubilizing tag strategy (RST‐2.0) enables the synthesis, purification and ligation of difficult peptides while being readily removable just during folding, which overcomes the common challenges from protein hydrophobicity and aggregation. With this method, we achieved the first total synthesis of native and N‐glycosylated IL‐15 as well as
