Bioactive polysaccharides and their potential health benefits in reducing the risks of metabolic syndrome: A review

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex noncommunicable condition characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Epidemiological evidence shows that MetS affects a third of the global population; however, due to its complex pathogenesis and limited drug therapy options, the increasing ...

AraR plays a more dominant role than XlnR in plant biomass conversion in Penicillium subrubescens

Current Research in Biotechnology
Penicillium subrubescens is a promising candidate for industrial applications as its plant cell wall-degrading enzyme production levels and saccharification abilities are similar to that of the well-established industrial species Aspergillus niger ...

Studying Genome Heterogeneity within the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Cytoplasm

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2015
Although heterokaryons have been reported in nature, multicellular organisms are generally assumed genetically homogeneous. Here, we investigate the case of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) that form symbiosis with plant roots.

Rewriting the MASLD‐associated hepatocellular carcinoma script: Targeting epigenetics and metabolism

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Abnormal epigenetic patterns are crucial for the progression of metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. Recent research focused on the interplay between epigenetics and altered metabolic pathways in HCC from MASLD, suggesting that the reversibility of epigenetic changes offers ...

Raman flow cytometry based single‐cell species classification, viable‐cell counting and vitality test for probiotic products

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Raman flow cytometry (RFC) enables rapid, high‐throughput quality assessment of probiotic products by classifying species/strains, counting viable cells, and quantifying vitality at single‐cell resolution. With 10‐fold higher throughput and excellent accuracy, RFC outperforms traditional methods and offers a label‐free, automated platform for probiotic

Transcriptional response of the white-rot fungus Dichomitus squalens to polysaccharides reveals a co-expression network of plant biomass conversion related genes

Current Research in Biotechnology
Wood-degrading white-rot fungi can efficiently degrade all plant biomass components, but the molecular mechanisms behind the degradation of plant polysaccharides remain poorly understood.

Soyasaponin and vertical microbial transmission: Maternal effect on the intestinal development and health of early chicks

iMeta, EarlyView.
This study investigates the vertical transmission of maternal microbiota in chickens and how it is modulated by maternal soyasaponin supplementation. Using a model spanning the reproductive tract, egg components, and developing chicks, we show that maternal gut and reproductive microbiota, including Bifidobacterium adolescentis (B.
