Improving trans‐cinnamic acid production in a model cyanobacterium

Biotechnology Progress, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract trans‐Cinnamic acid (tCA) is a precursor in the synthesis of many high‐value compounds with bio‐active qualities useful in applications like medicine, polymers, and cosmetics. Currently tCA is produced by industrial chemical synthesis from fossil fuels or cost‐prohibitive isolation from terrestrial plants.

Micronutrients and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2005
The current high life expectancy is overshadowed by neurodegenerative illnesses that lead to dementia and dependence. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common of these conditions, and is considered to be a proteinopathy, with amyloid-β42 as a key factor, leading via a cascade of events to neurodegeneration.
