Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesStudy on the Enhancement of Hypoglycemic and Antioxidant Activities of Compound Herbal Tea through Solid-State FermentationQing Liu, Xiaowen Que, Yueping Yang et al.This study utilized Aspergillus niger KY2295 for the Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) of a compound tea made from Cinnamomum cassia bark, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Morus abla L. leaf, and Crataegus oxyacantha L. to enhance its hypoglycemic effects. The fermentation process was optimized using single-factor experiments and a Central Composite Design (CCD), with α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities as evaluation indices. Following fermentation, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 20 May 2025 · 5,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesQualitative Analysis of the Chemical Composition of Cinnamomum tamala leaves and Biological ActivityQianwen Gong, Pin Chen, Linyang Wang, Shuge TianCinnamomum tamala (Buch.-Ham.) Nees and Ebermaier. (Lauraceae) is a less explored medicinal plant in Uyghur medicine, with limited knowledge about its non-volatile compounds. We utilized chemical pre-screening in conjunction with UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS to analyze the phytochemical makeup of C. tamala leaves. Total polyphenols were measured using the Folin-Ciocalteu method, while total flavonoids were quantified through NaNO2-Al (NO3)3 colorimetric analysis across four … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2026 · 683 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesBeyond Survival: The Unique Salt Secretion and Ion Homeostasis Mechanisms in Limonium bicolor Under Salt StressLinyang Wang, Pin Chen, Shuge TianSoil salinization poses a significant threat to global agriculture. Limonium bicolor, a recretohalophyte, has evolved a unique and efficient salt tolerance mechanism centered on epidermal salt glands for secreting excess salts. This review systematically synthesizes the multilevel salt tolerance strategies in Limonium bicolor, covering the structural basis of its multicellular salt glands, the molecular regulatory networks governing their development including … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 8 Sep 2026 · 807 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComparative Analysis of Proteins in Two Typical Chinese Thin-Shell WalnutsXu Meng, Tian YilingThis study compared functional properties and molecular characteristics of proteins from two thin-shelled walnut (Juglans regia L.) cultivars predominantly grown in China: Wen 185 and Lvling. Wen 185 walnut protein demonstrated significantly superior performance compared to Lvling across multiple functional parameters, including solubility, emulsifying capacity, foaming capacity, water absorption, and oil absorption. Molecular weight distribution analysis revealed that both proteins … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRole of the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway in Reducing Lipogenesis of Obese Rats Under Hypoxic ExercisePeiming Xu, Zhiyuan Sun, Xiaoyi Tian et al.Hypoxic exercise exerts a significant effect on body weight loss and body fat reduction. Methods: In the present study, we constructed an obese rat model and divided rats into the following groups: Normoxic quiet (C), Hypoxic quiet (H), Normoxic Exercise (CE), and Hypoxic Exercise (HE). We employed isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) using proteomic technology to screen … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2022 · 5,744 accessesView PDFCite
