Consumer attitudes toward GM food with hypothetical functional characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes
Since their introduction in the early 1990s, genetically modified organisms in agriculture tended to emphasize improved yield. Europeans, perceiving unacceptable risk and too little benefit, resoundingly disapproved of GMO use in agro-food processes ...

Learning functional object categories from a relational spatio-temporal representation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
. We propose a framework that learns functional objectcategories from spatio-temporal data sets such as those abstracted from video. The data is represented as one activity graph that encodes qualitative spatio-temporal patterns of interaction between ...

Pioglitazone plus (−)‐epigallocatechin gallate: a novel approach to enhance osteogenic performance in aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

The role of two anatomically separate olfactory bulbs in shark food odor tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Most sharks have well-developed olfactory systems and depend to a large degree on odor information to locate food, home and navigate, and possibly detect predators and mates.

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Modelling Reference-Dependent and Labelling Effects in Consumers’ Functional Food Choices [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the reference-dependent and labelling effects when consumers make choices about functional foods, and explores how changes in reference points could alter individuals’ preferences.

Understanding bio‐based polymers: A study of origins, properties, biodegradation and their impact on health and the environment

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of bio‐based polymer sources, their unique functional properties and their environmental impact, and addresses their role as sustainable alternatives. It discusses end‐of‐life options, including composting and anaerobic digestion for renewable energy.

Intratumoral delivery of probiotic Ligilactobacillus salivarius H22A013 modulates the melanoma microenvironment and enhances trametinib efficacy

open access: yesBMC Microbiology
Melanoma, an aggressive and frequently metastatic skin cancer, demands more effective therapies. While probiotics modulate the gut–tumor axis, their indirect action and the use of engineered strains raise concerns over variability and safety.
