Urinary felinine excretion in intact male cats is increased by dietary cystine [PDF]

, 2008
Felinine is a branched-chain sulfur amino acid present in the urine of certain Felidae, including domestic cats. The objective of the present study was to determine if additional cystine and/or dietary N would increase felinine and N-acetylfelinine ...

Assessment of Metabolites in Noni Fruit Slurry Fermented With Four Non‐Saccharomyces Yeasts

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Dried noni fruit slurry (DNFS) was fermented for 14 days with selected non‐Saccharomyces yeasts. GCMS, HPLC and amino acid analysis showed that Pichia kluyveri Frootzen and Williopsis saturnus NCYC22 grew well, reduced off‐flavor fatty acids, generated fruity aroma compounds and preserved total phenolic content. ABSTRACT Noni products often suffer from

Aging‐Derived Alterations in Genomic, Immune, and Metabolic Networks: Implications for Cancer Development and Therapy

MedComm – Oncology, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
Ageing acts as a double‐edged sword in cancer. In the elderly, open chromatin, immunosenescence, and chronic inflammation drive SASP (IL‐6, MMPs), MDSC accumulation and T‐cell suppression, fostering tumor‐promoting microenvironments and limited therapeutic benefit.

Targeting AQP5-mediated arginine deprivation in gastric cancer stem cells restores NK cell anti-tumor immunity

Cell Reports Medicine
Summary: Natural killer (NK) cells exhibit impaired anti-tumor activity upon entering the tumor microenvironment (TME); however, the precise mechanism(s) remains elusive.

Genome-wide analyses identify common variants associated with macular telangiectasia type 2 [PDF]

, 2017
Idiopathic juxtafoveal retinal telangiectasis type 2 (macular telangiectasia type 2; MacTel) is a rare neurovascular degenerative retinal disease. To identify genetic susceptibility loci for MacTel, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS ...

Combined Analysis of Transcriptome and Metabolome Explains the Differences in Pulp Color in Jackfruit

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The pulp color of jackfruit reflects variations in its nutritional composition and influences market preference. We investigated the mechanism underlying pulp coloration through an integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis of three jackfruit cultivars—light yellow “THA”, yellow “GTM”, and orange “YNH”.

A short peptide derived from late embryogenesis abundant proteins enhances acid tolerance in Escherichia coli via modulation of two‐component regulatory systems

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 781-805, February 2026.
Expression of the LEA‐K peptide in E. coli BL21 (DE3) improved bacterial viability under acidic stress (pH4), suggesting a protective function. RNA‐sequencing of LEA‐K‐expressing vs. non‐expressing cells revealed 283 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In silico docking linked LEA‐K to two‐component systems (TCS) proteins (Rcs, BtsS/R, and EnvZ/OmpR)

REEP1 Accumulation Disrupts ER Integrity and Drives Spinal Motoneuron Degeneration in Distal Hereditary Motor Neuropathy

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, 9 January 2026.
REEP1 contributes to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) shaping. Variants either cause cortical motoneuron degeneration and hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) or spinal motoneuron degeneration and distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN). Knockout causes less complex ER structures and cortical motoneuron loss.
