Diving Deeper Into Mechanisms of Acrylamide‐Induced Toxicity: RNA Sequencing Reveals Transcriptomic Alteration and Retrotransposon Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the inevitability of human and animal exposure to acrylamide, there is increasing concern regarding its potential health risks. While a number of molecular mechanisms have been proposed, the complexity of acrylamide toxicological pathways and interactions remains incompletely characterized.

Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production

Vietnam Journal of Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

Acquisition of Maltose Chemotaxis in Salmonella typhimurium by the Introduction of the Escherichia coli Chemosensory Transducer Gene [PDF]

, 1986
Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium are closely related species. However, E. coli cells show maltose chemotaxis but S. typhimurium cells do not. When an E. coli chemotransducer gene (tar_E), the product of which is required for both aspartate and

Structural insights into the binding mode of the hypnotic drug vornorexant to orexin receptors

Acta Crystallographica Section F, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of the human orexin type 2 receptor–vornorexant complex (3.29 Å resolution) and orexin type 1 receptor docking revealed a conserved U‐shaped binding conformation, explaining the high affinity and balanced dual antagonism of this dual orexin receptor antagonist. The structural data validate the rational design that incorporated a 1,

Hexoses Biorefinery: Driving Glucose Dehydration over Sulfonic Polymer and Hybrid Acid Catalysts

Reactions
Glucose is the most abundant monosaccharide as it is the primary unit of cellulose and starch, which are the more relevant feedstocks for biorefineries.

Spectrum of polysaccharides degradation products of ales and lager beers [PDF]

, 2005
The saccharide spectrum, as a distribution of fractions of different molecular mass, of sixteen beers was determined by ultracentrifugation using filters with cut-offs of 1, 5, 10 and 50 kDa. The saccharide concentrations in the filtrates were determined

Maltase 1 regulates DENV2 infection and life history in Aedes aegypti

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Our study employed CRISPR/Cas9 to generate a MAL1 knockout strain of Aedes aegypti, demonstrating that the absence of MAL1 significantly suppresses DENV2 replication in the midgut and impairs viral transmission. The mutation also altered life‐history (hatching/pupation/emerging rates and sex‐specific survival), identifying MAL1 as a novel target for ...

Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

A Case for Anti‐IgE Vaccination

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) plays a central role in allergic diseases by binding to the high‐affinity receptor FcεRI on mast cells and basophils, where allergen‐induced crosslinking triggers potent inflammatory responses. Various mechanisms by which IgE responses are generated and functionally regulated remain elusive despite many years of research.
