Gut Microbiota-derived Bile Acids Promote Gamma-secretase Activity Through Interactions with Nicastrin Subunits [PDF]
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has emerged as a progressively pervasive neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Bile acids, synthesized in the liver and modified by the gut microbiota, play pivotal roles in diverse physiological processes, and their dysregulation in individuals with AD has been well-documented.

Riktad metabolomik med 'Ultra Performans' Vätskekormatografi Mass Spekrometri (UPLC-MS) visar metaboliska skillnader i hälsosamma samt atopiska Staffordshire bullterrier efter två olika dieter : en pilotstudie [PDF]
While anecdotal evidence has long claimed that a raw meat–based diet (RMBD) improves the metabolic health of canines, no rigorous scientific study has clarified this issue.

Many mice treated with a high single dose of PL died in convulsions. The convulsions were very similar to those induced with some anti B6 in several ways: (1) a long latent period occurs betfore convulsions; (2) PLP levels in brain decrease; (3) GABA levels in brain, especially in synaptosomal fraction, decrease.

Since 2012, studies in mice, rats, and humans have suggested that abnormalities in purinergic signaling may be a final common pathway for many genetic and environmental causes of autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Learning the Hydrophilic, Hydrophobic and Aromatic Character of Amino Acids from their Interfacial Thermal Conductance in Water [PDF]
In this study, the thermal relaxation of the 20 naturally occurring amino-acids in water is investigated using transient non-equilibrium molecular-dynamics simulations. By modeling the thermal relaxation process, the relaxation times of the amino-acids in water occurs over a timescale covering 2-5 ps.

The Kynurenine Pathway Is Upregulated by Methyl-deficient Diet and Changes Are Averted by Probiotics [PDF]
Scope Probiotics exert immunomodulatory effects and may influence tryptophan metabolism in the host. Deficiency of nutrients related to C1 metabolism might stimulate inflammation by enhancing the kynurenine pathway.

Reaction of Pyridoxal and Amino Acids in Methanol
Reactions of amino acids and related amines with pyridoxal in methanol were studied by the changes of electronic absorption spectra. Most amino acids and amines formed Schiff bases, which existed in keto-enamine and enol-imine forms. Equilibrium between the two tautomeric forms was affected by the nature of amino acids or amine residues.

The intestine plays a substantial role in human vitamin B6 metabolism: a Caco-2 cell model. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Vitamin B6 is present in various forms (vitamers) in the diet that need to be metabolized to pyridoxal phosphate (PLP), the active cofactor form of vitamin B6.

The effects of carboxylic acids on the aqueous dispersion and electrophoretic deposition of ZrO2 [PDF]
The agglomeration, electrokinetic properties and electrophoretic deposition behaviour of aqueous suspensions of ZrO2 with carboxylic acid additives were studied in comparison with conventional pH adjustment. It was found that citric acid imparted negative zeta-potential values and electrosteric stabilisation to particles in suspensions at all pH levels.
