A comprehensive review on cellulose-based hydrogel and its potential application in the food industry

Applied Food Research, 2022
Cellulose is the most abundant and renewable source for hydrogel production and has much attention and research attraction in the last two years. Cellulose has intellectual features for hydrogel production such as cost-effectiveness, water absorption ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Disinfection Effect of High-pressure Carbon Dioxide on Human Coronavirus (hCoV-229E)

Shipin gongye ke-ji, 2023
Objective: Exploring the disinfection effect of high-pressure carbon dioxide (HPCD) on human coronavirus 229E (hCoV-229E). Methods: The human coronavirus 229E (hCoV-229E) was treated by HPCD at different temperatures (10, 25, and 37 ℃) and pressures (6.3

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Comparative study between conventional and ultrasonic homogenization techniques on the formulated vegan frozen dessert made using chickpea and mung bean protein isolates

Food Chemistry Advances
This work is on the substitution of milk protein and milk fat with legume protein and vegetable oil for the preparation of frozen desserts, which are non-dairy alternatives to lactose-intolerant populations. The main objective of this study is to compare

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Application of light based, non-thermal techniques to determine physico-chemical characteristics, pungency and aflatoxin levels of dried red chilli pods (Capsicum annuum)

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2023
Aflatoxin contamination is a significant barrier in the international trade of major spices like chilli, aniseed, and pepper. Hence, it is crucial to develop effective aflatoxin decontamination management strategies to enhance the export potential of ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.
