SNF472, a novel inhibitor of vascular calcification, could be administered during hemodialysis to attain potentially therapeutic phytate levels

JN. Journal of Nephrology (Milano. 1992), 2018
BackgroundCardiovascular calcification (CVC) is a major concern in hemodialysis (HD) and the loss of endogenous modulators of calcification seems involved in the process.

Quiescin Sulfhydryl Oxidase‐Like 1 Positively Regulates Seed Dormancy in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is an adaptive strategy that enables plants to survive adverse environmental conditions. In agricultural contexts, an optimal level of dormancy is essential: Insufficient dormancy can result in preharvest sprouting, while excessive dormancy may lead to uneven germination and poor stand establishment in subsequent crops.

Phytate reduction in sorghum grains cultivated in Saudi Arabia [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Food Technology
Sorghum grains are the leading cereal crop in Saudi Arabia and act as the principal source of energy, protein, vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols. The flour is mixed with wheat flour to prepare bread. This study was carried out to investigate the effect

Alginate inhibits iron absorption from ferrous gluconate in a randomized controlled trial and reduces iron uptake into Caco-2 cells [PDF]

, 2014
Previous in vitro results indicated that alginate beads might be a useful vehicle for food iron fortification. A human study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that alginate enhances iron absorption.

Ionization of Calcium Phytate [PDF]

Nature, 1940
IT has been pointed out by Bruce and Callow1, and again recently by Harrison and Mellanby2, that the rachitogenic property of cereals may be due to the formation of a sparingly soluble salt of phytic acid and calcium. In this laboratory, investigations on the chemical properties of this compound have shown that sodium phytate can only form an insoluble

QTL Mapping of Several Seed Quality Traits in the DH Population NPZ06 × NPZ09 (Brassica napus L.) for Marker‐Assisted Selection

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

Phytase for Food Application

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2006
Phytase [myo-inositol(1,2,3,4,5,6)hexakisphosphate phosphohydrolase], a phytate-specific phosphatase, is already used as a supplement in diets for monogastric animals to improvephosphate utilisation from phytate[myoinositol(1,2,3,4,5,6)hexakisphosphate],

Impacts of elevated atmospheric CO₂ on nutrient content of important food crops. [PDF]

, 2015
One of the many ways that climate change may affect human health is by altering the nutrient content of food crops. However, previous attempts to study the effects of increased atmospheric CO2 on crop nutrition have been limited by small sample sizes and/

Genome‐Wide Association Study Elucidates the Genetic Architecture of Manganese Tolerance in Brassica napus

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Brassica napus (canola) is a significant contributor to the world's oil production and is cultivated across continents, yet acidic soils with aluminium (Al3+) and manganese (Mn2+) toxicities limit its production. The genetic determinants underlying natural variation for acidic soil tolerance in canola are unknown and need to be determined ...
