Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

The effects of β-glucan on human immune and cancer cells

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2009
Non-prescriptional use of medicinal herbs among cancer patients is common around the world. The alleged anti-cancer effects of most herbal extracts are mainly based on studies derived from in vitro or in vivo animal experiments.

Glycopolymeric nanoparticles transported by activated platelets protect ischemic myocardium by alleviating PANoptosis through targeting macrophage Dectin‐1

BMEMat, EarlyView.
NP‐SF, designed to target macrophage Dectin‐1 and activated platelets, selectively accumulated in ischemic myocardium, where it was taken up by macrophages after platelet hitchhiking. By inhibiting NLRC5‐related PANoptosis, NP‐SF significantly attenuated pathological damage, and effectively preserved cardiac function in a murine ischemia–reperfusion ...

Correlations of Molecular Weights of β-Glucans from Qingke (Tibetan Hulless Barley) to Their Multiple Bioactivities

Molecules, 2018
β-glucans have been considered the major bioactive components in Qingke (Tibetan hulless barley). However, the structure–function relationships of β-glucans from Qingke have seldom been investigated.

Moderate Amylose Increases From SSIIa Mutations Modify Pasta Texture in Durum Wheat

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum) pasta quality depends on grain yellowness, gluten strength, and protein content, and can be modified by altering starch composition. High‐amylose null mutants improve nutritional traits but often reduce seed size, yield, and processing quality.

Independence of Thermal, Pasting, and Gelling Properties From Particle Size in Cereal Flours Across Heating Temperatures

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives This study investigated how particle size influenced pasting and gelling behaviors of cereal flours across a wide range of heating temperatures. Hard wheat, soft wheat, oats, barley, and rye were milled into flours using 0.5‐, 1.0‐, or 2.0‐mm screens, and the resulting flours were subjected to heating over 95°C–140°C ...

Kinetic Modeling of Phosphate‐Based Enzyme Cascade for the Production of Fructose From Starch

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
A mechanistic kinetic model is developed for a phosphate‐based cascade converting starch to fructose. Mechanistic information was used to formulate rate expression of enzymes, and sensitivity analysis was performed to identify key kinetic parameters for optimization.

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...
