Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Metformin Treatment on Inflammatory Factors and Gut Microbial Diversity in Patients with Type II Diabetes MellitusLei Tong, Jingjing Zhang, Li Xiao Yue et al.With the persistent rise in the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), traditional treatment evaluations have primarily focused on glycemic control, often overlooking the multidimensional effects of medications. As a first-line therapeutic agent, the anti-inflammatory effects and gut microbiota regulation mechanisms of metformin remain incompletely elucidated. This prospective cohort study established a metformin treatment group and a T2DM control … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 20 Jul 2026 · 774 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrought and Terminal Heat Stress Effects and Its Management on Wheat Genotypes: A ReviewSantosh Gupta, Prabin Kumar Mahato, Naresh Upadhyaya et al.Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a vital cereal crop that plays a crucial role in global food security, supplying essential calories and protein to over 80% of the world's population. In recent decades, the effects of climate change, particularly rising temperatures, have raised concerns about Wheat production worldwide. The optimal daytime temperature for Wheat growth during its reproductive stage is around … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 21 Nov 2024 · 8,230 accessesView PDF Cite

This research aims to collect and analyze data about conditions that promote stability, conditions that lead to instability, and how stability varies in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 21 Aug 2024 · 5,192 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntioxidant and Antibacterial Properties of Essential Oils from Citrus reticulata cv. Shatangju Peel for the Preservation of Chilled PorkYao Dong, Xintong Zou, Hongli Zhou et al.Citrus reticulata cv. Shatangju peel essential oil (CrspEo), with three major components D-limonene (88.15%), γ-terpinene (4.59%) and β-myrcene (2.62%), possessed antioxidant activities with DPPH and ABTS+ radical scavenging with the IC50 (concentration of CrspEo scavenging 50% of radical) of 9.87±0.12% and 0.48±0.02%, respectively. Meanwhile, CrspEo showed antimicrobial activity in suppressing the growth of Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, Escherichia … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 31 Jul 2024 · 4,748 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Gene Expression of Peroxide Resistant Protein (AhpC) in Planktonic and Biofilm State of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli CellsOmar Sadik Shalal, Ani-Simona SevastreThe gastrointestinal tract seems to be the primary reservoir of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in humans. UPEC strains harbor the Urinary Tract (UT) and cause Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) which might represent a serious threat to human life. To counteract with the damage caused by the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), bacterial strains produce various enzymes and proteins like Alkyl hydroperoxide … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2023 · 5,324 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpigenetic Regulation of Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in Skin Aging: Mechanisms and InteractionsJiguang Yang, Yusong Shi, Xiaoqing YanSkin aging results from complex interactions between genetic factors, environmental stressors, and epigenetic modifications that regulate extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. Accumulation of senescent cells impairs tissue regeneration through mechanisms including telomere shortening, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure. While epigenetic pathways regulate skin homeostasis, regeneration, and senescence, the specific epigenetic changes occurring during UV exposure, chronological aging, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,458 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Heat Stress on the Expression of HSP70, UCP3 and CYP450 Genes in Liver; Longissimus Dorsi and Semitendinosus Muscle of Growing PigsV. Montesinos-Cruz, M. Cota, L. Buenabad et al.High Ambient Temperature (AT) provokes Heat Stress (HS) in animals, which is characterized by increased body temperature, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) production and cell damage. Uncoupling Proteins (UCP) may contribute to dissipate body heat, cytochrome P450 (CYP3A4) reduces ROS and Heat Shock Proteins (HSP) prevent protein denaturalization. This study analyzed the expression of HSP70, UCP3 and CYP3A in liver, Longissimus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 24 Oct 2019 · 7,867 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDouble Application of Translocator Protein Ligands and RAW Cells Inflammatory MilieuMaria Staykova, Filomena Mattner, David Linares, Andrew KatsifisLigands targeting the translocator protein exhibit a variety of anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. A double application of eight translocator protein ligands to activated murine macrophage-like cells changed to a different extent the levels of secreted reactive nitrogen intermediates, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines. To our knowledge this is the first report suggesting that multiple applications of different translocator protein ligands may … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2016 · 6,942 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRice Starch as Coating Materials for Microencapsulation of Gamma Oryzanol to Improve its StabilityAnuchita Moongngarm, Jeerasupa Amornpan, Amaraphon Homduang et al.Gamma Oryzanol (GO) is a phytochemical with the ability to prevent oxidation. GO is normally degraded through oxidation by oxygen and sunlight. Microencapsulation is an important technique used to retard oxidation. This study compared rice starch and Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) as coating materials and investigated the stability of encapsulated GO during storage under activated oxidation conditions. The GO was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 27 Aug 2016 · 7,788 accessesView PDF Cite
