Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Hepatic monoacylglycerol acyltransferase: ontogeny and characterization of an activity associated with the chick embryo.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
Hepatic monoacylglycerol acyltransferase is expressed during the perinatal period in rats and guinea pigs and appears to be related temporally to the availability of fatty acids and to the development of hepatic steatosis.

Inhibition of ferroptosis by microbiota‐derived lithocholic acid underlies the intestinal radioprotection of a host defensin‐derived oligopeptide

iMeta, EarlyView.
AT9(C/G), an oligopeptide derived from human defensin 5, enriches Bifidobacterium pseudolongum and increases lithocholic acid (LCA) levels in the intestine. Reduced levels of LCA link to increased severity of ionizing radiation‐induced intestinal injury (IRIII) in both murine and clinical studies.

Perinatal hepatocyte/hepatoma hybrids: construction of clones that express the developmentally regulated monoacyglycerol acyltransferase activity.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1990
Microsomal monoacyglycerol acyltransferase is a developmentally expressed enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of sn-1,2-diacylglycerol from sn-2-monoacylglycerol and palmitoyl-CoA.

Efficacy of omega‐3 fatty acids as a functional food: a multifaceted approach to health reinforcement

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Omega‐3 fatty acids (omega‐3s) are polyunsaturated fatty acids linked with numerous health benefits. Omega‐3s exhibit multifaceted activities through various mechanisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) alleviates oxidative stress by lowering reactive oxygen species and improving oxidative stress in brain tissues and acts against neurodegenerative ...

Discovery of a non-canonical prototype long-chain monoacylglycerol lipase through a structure-based endogenous reaction intermediate complex

Nature Communications, 2023
The identification and characterization of enzyme function is largely lacking behind the rapidly increasing availability of large numbers of sequences and associated high-resolution structures.

Endocannabinoid system gene expression in mesocorticolimbic brain regions of individuals with alcohol use disorder: A descriptive study

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims To describe differences in the expression of genes encoding cannabinoid receptors (CNR1, CNR2), the associated receptor GRP55 and the enzymes fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MGLL) between individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and controls in key mesocorticolimbic brain regions.

Properties of acyl-coenzyme A:1-acylglycerophosphate acyltransferase and lipases in porcine erythrocyte membranes.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1984
Acyl-CoA:1-acylglycerophosphate acyltransferase activity was found in porcine erythrocyte membranes. However, the membrane preparations did not catalyze the acylation of either 2-acylglycerophosphate or 2-acylglycerophosphocholine.

Monoacylglycerol lipase inhibitors: modulators for lipid metabolism in cancer malignancy, neurological and metabolic disorders

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2020
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is a serine hydrolase that plays a crucial role catalysing the hydrolysis of monoglycerides into glycerol and fatty acids.

Fats, Fire and Bronze Age Funerary Rites: Organic Residue Analysis of Wide Horizontal Rim Vessels From Burial Contexts in Northwest Portugal

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents the first GC‐MS–based analyses of wide horizontal rim vessels with well‐defined funerary contexts, from Middle Bronze Age Portugal (Quinta do Amorim 2 and Pego). Organic residues from two vessels revealed ruminant fats and plant oils, alongside molecular markers of heat exposure.
