Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Multifilm Mass Transfer and Reaction Rate Kinetics in a Newly Developed In Vitro Digestion System for Carbohydrate Digestion

open access: yesFoods
Multifilm mass transfer theory has been used in conjunction with developing a new in vitro starch digestion model and applied to assessing starch digestion kinetics. One significance of this research is that this in vitro model has similar dynamics, such

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Material hold-up on inert particles in fluidized bed dryer [PDF]

open access: yesHemijska Industrija
In this paper the influence of process parameters on the material hold-up in a fluidized bed dryer with inert particles was investigated. The experiments were performed in a pilot-scale dryer with a cylindrical column 0.215 m in diameter and 1.2 m height,

Intensification of the freeze drying process by the control of both freezing and primary drying steps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The problem of optimization of freeze-drying cycles is addressed, with emphasis in both freezing and primary drying steps. In particular, this study shows that the control of the nucleation event produces more uniform batches (as ice nucleation is ...

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Connecting Texture and Breakup in Water and Simulated Gastric Fluid with Different Food-like Tablets

open access: yesFoods
Three food-like tablet types, with Young’s moduli similar to those of real foods, were prepared to investigate breakup during digestion using caffeine as a model solute. Texture was evaluated in situ during simulated digestion by measuring Young’s moduli

PHYSIOLOGICAL QUALITY OF CHICKPEA (CICER ARIETINUM L.) SEEDS UNDER STORAGE AND ENVIRONMENTAL VARIATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola
Chickpea has recently gained prominence in agriculture, being an excellent option for crop rotation in areas cultivated with soybean or corn. Seeds must have good physiological quality, mainly during storage, to ensure crop success.
