Deciphering Pigmented Rice Varieties as Sustainable and Unexplored Valuable Sources of Bioactive Components With Health-Related Properties and Technological Applications-A Systematic Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The interest in pigmented grains has grown substantially in recent years. Pigmented rice is crucial for diversifying agricultural production and promoting healthier, more balanced diets. This systematic review updates and discusses literature published between 2019 and 2024 on the bioactive compounds in pigmented rice, their potential health ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Measuring bioaccessible nutrient levels during digestion in a physiologically relevant (dynamic) manner is a bottleneck in plant breeding and food product development. The first aim of this study was to develop and compare four simulated gastric digestion models paired with a static small‐intestinal phase for use with small sample ...

Proanthocyanidins modulate microRNA expression in human HepG2 cells. [PDF]
Mi(cro)RNAs are small non-coding RNAs of 18-25 nucleotides in length that modulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. These RNAs have been shown to be involved in a several biological processes, human diseases and metabolic disorders ...

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.
