However, traditional sufu is difficult to produce via industrial processes because of dominant microorganism attenuation during fermentation. Herein, specific protease-producing strains were isolated from traditional sufu. After strain identification, mutation, and domestication, the strains were applied in fermentation. The taste, texture, and nutrient and flavor components of the fermentation products were investigated via organoleptic, textural HPLC and HS-GC-IMS analyses. Results revealed that <i>Bacillus subtilis</i> (DF1) and the derived strains DF1v and DF1vd had increased protease activity relative to other strains. When these strains were applied for sufu fermentation, the production period significantly shortened to 6-8 days for pehtzes and to 20-26 days for postripening. The nutrient and flavor compound composition of both sufu pehtzes and products improved, including increases in water-soluble proteins, amino acids, and substances with beany and umami aromas and decreases in nonbeneficial biogenic amines and moldy odor-imparting substances. Among the strains, DF1vd showed the greatest benefits in sufu-assisted fermentation.

However, information on grain magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) status and their response to phosphorus (P) fertilization in sweet corn is still insufficient. In the current study, we combined the genotype evaluation and P gradient experiments to investigate how P supply influences the spatio-temporal variation of grain mineral nutrition (Mg and Ca) and their bioavailabilities in sweet corn. Increasing P decreased grain Ca by 16.7%, from 0.18 to 0.15 g kg^-1, but increased phytic acid phosphorus (PAP) concentration by 7.4%. Optimal P levels increased grain Mg concentration by 14.7%, from 1.36 to a peak of 1.56 g kg^-1; however, excessive P reduced it by 3.8% to 1.50 g kg^-1. Spatially, optimal P increased the grain Mg concentration across all cob positions and in the germ, with the largest variation observed at the upside position (Coefficient of variation (cv) = 11.88%). Conversely, high P decreased Mg concentration in middle-cob grains and the germ. High P also reduced Ca in the upper/middle-cob grain and in both germ and endosperm. P consistently increased grain PAP but reduced Mg and Ca bioavailability across all growth stages, all grain fractions, and the middle/bottom cob positions. Notably, PAP showed the largest variation at the late growth stage in bottom cob grains (CV = 8.75%). Mg and Ca bioavailabilities exhibited significant variations, primarily in upper grains during the early filling stage, with CVs reaching 14.5% and 43.23%, respectively. Temporally, early grain growth stage was more sensitive to P-induced changes in Mg, Ca and their bioavailabilities, while later growth stage was more responsive to grain PAP alterations. These findings suggest that reducing P input can be advantageous for achieving high Mg and Ca biofortified sweet corn grain.</p>","PeriodicalId":12418,"journal":{"name":"Food Science & Nutrition","volume":"13 1","pages":"e4725"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11762451/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143046092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the current study, potato starch-pectin (PSP) composite films were fabricated and enriched with juniper berry essential oil (JBEO) to improve their physicochemical properties. The effects of incorporating different concentrations of JBEO (0.1%-1% v/v) on various properties of PSP-based films were evaluated, including surface color, transparency, barrier properties, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis (TGA and DTA), antioxidant activity, and antimicrobial effectiveness. Increasing the level of JBEO led to a significant decrease in the moisture content, film transparency, and mechanical attributes, while an increase in thickness, water permeability, and film elongation was observed. SEM analysis also revealed morphological properties such as some spherical, bubble-like configuration and cracks on the surface due to an increase in JBEO concentration. TGA and DTA revealed lower weight loss in the initial cycles due to the addition of JBEO, and the thermal stability of the films improved. The antioxidant assays revealed a concentration-dependent increase in the radical scavenging capacity of the films from 11.31% to 17.28% for DPPH and from 3.06% to 25.53% for ABTS.

The mechanisms through which <i>P. harmala</i> polysaccharide (LTP) induces autophagy, however, remain largely unexplored. This study aims to elucidate the role of LTP in autophagy induction and its efficacy in mitigating inflammation within macrophages. Autophagosome formation was evaluated using GFP-LC3 vectors, and LC3-II levels induced by LTP were analyzed through laser scanning confocal microscopy. Western blotting assessed the expression of autophagy-related proteins and the phosphorylation state of p70S6K in NRK cells, treated both with and without LTP, alongside autophagy inducers and inhibitors. Additionally, RAW264.7 cells were treated with 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharides (LPS), followed by Western blotting and ELISA assays to quantify inflammatory markers. The study's outcomes demonstrate that LTP facilitates an increase in autophagic activity, as evidenced by the enhanced expression of LC3-II and reduced levels of p62 in both NRK and RAW264.7 macrophages. This effect is mediated through the activation of the AMPK-mTOR signaling pathway, without inhibiting the autophagosome-lysosome fusion process. In vitro experiments with RAW264.7 cells treated with 1 μg/mL LPS showed that LTP markedly decreased the levels of TNF-α and IL-6.

We employed the chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) model to induce depressive-like behaviors in mice, followed by lycopene treatment (20 mg/kg). Based on previous research, we focused on synaptic plasticity by examining the expression of synaptic proteins in the hippocampus to uncover potential mechanisms. The results showed that CSDS induced synaptic plasticity impairments in the hippocampus but lycopene treatment significantly improved these synaptic deficits and reversed the depressive-like behaviors induced by CSDS. Moreover, lycopene treatment upregulated the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and reduced the activity of BDNF-TrkB/pTrkB pathway in the hippocampus. These molecular changes were consistent with changes in synaptic-related proteins, suggesting that lycopene may enhance synaptic plasticity via the BDNF-TrkB/pTrkB signaling pathway.

Iron deficiency anaemia is a major concern among children and mothers, especially in pastoralist communities, due to poor nutrition and other related factors. Using a community-based cross sectional study, this study investigated factors associated with hemoglobin levels among children and women in Narok County, Kenya. Anthropometrics were estimated using body mass index measurements for mothers, and the nutritional status of children was calculated using <i>Z</i>-score measurements.
