Kim, Il-Doo published the artcileDealcoholization of Korean traditional rice wine, takju, combining thermal, bentonite clarification or reverse osmosis treatment, HPLC of Formula: 505-10-2, the main research area is Dealcoholization rice wine takju thermal bentonite reverse osmosis treatment; Bentonite; Dealcoholization; Heat treatment; Reverse osmosis; Takju.

The objective of this study was to prepare low-alc. takju. Low-alc. (3.06%) and dealcoholized (0.04-0.28%) takju samples were prepared by adopting bentonite clarification, heat and reverse osmosis treatments. The dealcoholization of takju, in most cases, significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the total mineral (from 505.80 to 258.61 mg/L), free amino acid (from 989.81 to 293.58 mg/mL), antioxidant potentials and total phenolic (from 345.30 to 156.30μg GAE/mL) contents remained in the control to RO-3 (takju sample obtained from 3-time reverse osmosis and heat treatment). Similarly, the content of volatile compounds was also significantly (p < 0.05) decreased with the dealcoholization treatments. The finding of this study clearly showed that dealcoholized takju could be prepared but at the expense of reduced nutritional and antioxidant potentials. This study could be an exemplary in promoting traditional beverages in different countries by producing low or alc.-free drinks.

Xu, Xin published the artcileReverse metabolic engineering in lager yeast: impact of the NADH/NAD+ ratio on acetaldehyde production during the brewing process, Product Details of C4H6O5, the main research area is reverse metabolic engineering acetaldehyde NADH NAD brewing yeast; Acetaldehyde; Brewer’s yeast; NADH/NAD+; Reverse metabolic engineering.

Acetaldehyde is synthesized by yeast during the main fermentation period of beer production, which causes an unpleasant off-flavor. Therefore, there has been extensive effort toward reducing acetaldehyde to obtain a beer product with better flavor and anti-staling ability. In this study, we discovered that acetaldehyde production in beer brewing is closely related with the intracellular NADH equivalent regulated by the citric acid cycle. However, there was no significant relationship between acetaldehyde production and amino acid metabolism A reverse engineering strategy to increase the intracellular NADH/NAD+ ratio reduced the final acetaldehyde production level, and vice versa. This work offers new insight into acetaldehyde metabolism and further provides efficient strategies for reducing acetaldehyde production by the regulating the intracellular NADH/NAD+ ratio through cofactor engineering.

Malheiros, Rafael S. P. published the artcileSelenomethionine induces oxidative stress and modifies growth in rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings through effects on hormone biosynthesis and primary metabolism, Formula: C4H6O5, the main research area is Oryza selenomethionine oxidative stress seedling hormone biosynthesis; Growth inhibition; Hormonal regulation; Primary metabolism; Reactive oxygen species; Selenium.

Although the chem. characteristics of selenomethionine (SeMet) are similar to those of methionine (Met), the physiol. activity of SeMet apparently differs in its ability to stimulate ethylene production in plant tissues. Since selenium alters root architecture of rice seedlings by modifying ethylene production, the investigation of the effect of SeMet and Met on rice growth would be a step forward towards unraveling factors that underlie selenium toxicity. Here, we report that SeMet increased concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibiting auxin and increasing ethylene production in rice seedlings. The effect of SeMet on seedlings was mediated by the inhibition of the abundance of transcripts encoding auxin transport and cell expansion proteins. Moreover, SeMet led to increased seedling respiration, which was pos. correlated with organic acids consumption, but neg. with sugars consumption, thereby decreasing seedling growth. In contrast with SeMet treatment, Met did not affect ROS production, hormone biosynthesis and seedling growth, indicating an exclusive selenium effect. The singlet oxygen scavenger, 1,4-diazabicyclooctane, overrode the repressive effect of SeMet in seedling growth. Our results demonstrate a phytotoxic effect of SeMet for rice seedlings and reveal a relationship between reactive oxygen species, hormone homeostasis and carbon availability, which regulates growth responses.

Wang, Guan published the artcileQuantitative metabolomics and metabolic flux analysis reveal impact of altered trehalose metabolism on metabolic phenotypes of Penicillium chrysogenum in aerobic glucose-limited chemostats, Name: (S)-2-hydroxysuccinic acid, the main research area is Penicillium trehalose metabolism aerobic glucose chemostat metabolomics.

In Penicillium chrysogenum, it has been observed that turnover of storage carbohydrates (trehalose, mannitol, arabitol, erythritol and glycogen) resulting in an extra ATP expenditure might partly account for the reduced penicillin productivity under dynamic cultivation conditions. In this work, Penicillium chrysogenum mutants with altered trehalose metabolism were constructed using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. It was observed that impaired trehalose biosynthesis did not result in growth arrest and change of glucose sensitivity to high glucose levels, but neg. influenced the sporulation. Compared with the original strain, in glucose-limited chemostat cultures, the biomass yield on glucose and energy efficiency were slightly enhanced; however, the penicillin productivity was significantly lowered in the trehalose mutant strains. Comparison with a high-yielding P. chrysogenum strain revealed that the original and mutant strains had a lower glucose uptake capacity but higher intracellular levels of free amino acids. Flux estimates through the central carbon metabolism showed distinctive difference in the upper part of the glycolysis and in the pentose phosphate pathway but comparable flux through the TCA cycle. Combining, the striking phenotypic effects observed in the trehalose mutants of P. chrysogenum indicated that trehalose metabolism plays an important role in metabolic regulation and is central to maintaining higher penicillin productivity under glucose-limited chemostat cultures.

Heerah, Sachin published the artcileWRKY1 mediates transcriptional regulation of light and nitrogen signaling pathways, Recommanded Product: (S)-2-hydroxysuccinic acid, the main research area is Arabidopsis WRKY transcriptional regulation nitrogen light signaling pathway.

Plant responses to multiple environmental stimuli must be integrated to enable them to adapt their metabolism and development. Light and nitrogen (N) are two such stimuli whose downstream signaling pathways must be intimately connected to each other to control plant energy status. Here, we describe the functional role of the WRKY1 transcription factor in controlling genome-wide transcriptional reprogramming of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) leaves in response to individual and combined light and N signals. This includes a cross-regulatory network consisting of 724 genes regulated by WRKY1 and involved in both N and light signaling pathways. The loss of WRKY1 gene function has marked effects on the light and N response of genes involved in N uptake and assimilation (primary metabolism) as well as stress response pathways (secondary metabolism). Our results at the transcriptome and at the metabolite anal. level support a model in which WRKY1 enables plants to activate genes involved in the recycling of cellular carbon resources when light is limiting but N is abundant and upregulate amino acid metabolism when both light and N are limiting. In this potential energy conservation mechanism, WRKY1 integrates information about cellular N and light energy resources to trigger changes in plant metabolism

Maruyama, Hayato published the artcileAtALMT3 is involved in malate efflux induced by phosphorus deficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana root hairs, COA of Formula: C4H6O5, the main research area is Arabidopsis root hair cell ALMT3 gene malate phosphorus.

Under phosphorus (P)-deficient conditions, organic acid secretion from roots plays an important role in P mobilization from insoluble P in the soil. In this study, we characterized AtALMT3, a homolog of the Arabidopsis thaliana aluminum-activated malate transporter family gene. Among the 14 AtALMT family genes, only AtALMT3 was significantly up-regulated in P-deficient roots. AtALMT3 promoter::β-glucuronidase is expressed in the epidermis in roots, especially in root hair cells. AtALMT3 protein was localized in the plasma membrane and in small vesicles. Fluorescence of AtALMT3::GFP was not observed on the vacuole membrane of protoplast after lysis, indicating that AtALMT3 localizes mainly in the plasma membrane. Compared with the wild-type (WT) line, malate exudation in the AtALMT3-knockdown line (atalmt3-1) and overexpression line (atalmt3-2) under P deficiency were, resp., 37% and 126%. In contrast, no significant difference was found in citrate exudation among these lines. The complementation of the atalmt3-1 line with AtALMT3 recovered the malate exudation to the level of the WT. Taken together, these results suggest that AtALMT3 localized in root hair membranes is involved in malate efflux in response to P deficiency.

Prajapati, Ritu published the artcileIsoliquiritigenin, a potent human monoamine oxidase inhibitor, modulates dopamine D1, D3, and vasopressin V1A receptors, Computed Properties of 111-87-5, the main research area is isoliquiritigenin human monoamine oxidase inhibitor dopamine vasopressin VA receptor.

Isoliquiritigenin (= 4,2′,4′-Trihydroxychalcone) (ILG) is a major constituent of the Glycyrrhizae Rhizoma that has significant neuroprotective functions. In the present study, we re-examined the potential of ILG to inhibit human monoamine oxidase (hMAO) in vitro and established its mechanism of inhibition through a kinetics study and mol. docking examination ILG showed competitive inhibition of hMAO-A and mixed inhibition of hMAO-B with IC50 values of 0.68 and 0.33μM, resp., which varied slightly from the reported IC50 values. Since ILG has been reported to reduce dopaminergic neurodegeneration and psychostimulant-induced toxicity (both of which are related to dopamine and vasopressin receptors), we investigated the binding affinity and modulatory functions of ILG on dopamine and vasopressin receptors. ILG was explored as an antagonist of the D1 receptor and an agonist of the D3 and V1A receptors with good potency. An in silico docking investigation revealed that ILG can interact with active site residues at target receptors with low binding energies. These activities of ILG on hMAO and brain receptors suggest the potential role of the compound to ameliorate dopaminergic deficits, depression, anxiety, and associated symptoms in Parkinson’s disease and other neuronal disorders.

Santos Wagner, Ana Luiza published the artcileResveratrol exerts beneficial effects on the growth and metabolism of Lactuca sativa L, Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is metabolomics Lactuca resveratrol amino acid galactose seedling photosynthesis; Crop protector; Growth promoter; Metabolomic analyses; Photosynthesis; Plant development.

In order to assist sustainable agriculture, new strategies and methods are being used based on the utilization of new natural mols. These natural compounds can be used as potential natural crop protectors and growth promoters, and the elucidation of their modes/mechanisms of action can represent a big step towards cleaner agriculture free of agrochems. In the present paper, the mechanisms underlying the effects of exogenous resveratrol (R), a natural phytoalexin found in plants, on Lactuca sativa metabolism were investigated through physiol. and metabolomic approaches. The results highlighted that R stimulates the growth of lettuce. A reduction of the O·-2 production in R-treated seedlings and an increase in the photosynthesis efficiency was observed, indicated by a higher Fv/Fm. The metabolomic anal. of lettuce seedlings treated with R identified 116 metabolites related to galactose, amino acids, sugar and nucleotide sugar, and ascorbate and aldarate metabolisms Increased content of some polyamines and several metabolites was also observed, which may have contributed to scavenging free radicals and activating antioxidant enzymes, thus reducing oxidative damage and improving PSII protection in R-treated seedlings.

Carcamo, Maria Paz published the artcileAluminum stress differentially affects physiological performance and metabolic compounds in cultivars of highbush blueberry, Product Details of C4H6O5, the main research area is Vaccinium aluminum stress metabolic compound.

In this study, we compared the physiol. and metabolic strategies to cope with Al toxicity among the highbush blueberry cultivars [two new ones (Camellia and Cargo) and three established ones (Brigitta (Al-resistant), Star and Duke)]. Aluminum concentration in roots and leaves increased in all cultivars after 24 and 48 h of exposure to Al, but less so in roots of cultivar Camellia and leaves of cultivar Cargo. These two cultivars displayed minor effects of Al exposure in terms of photosynthetic activity in comparison with the established cultivars. Aluminum exposure decreased malate concentration in roots of all cultivars, but no change was noted in fumarate concentration The antioxidant activity correlated with photosynthetic performance and the total phenol concentration in the leaves of new cultivars exposed to Al, suggesting enhanced resistance in the short-term experiment The principal component anal. separated the new from the established cultivars. In conclusion, the new cultivars appear to be more Al-resistant than the established ones, with Star being most Al-sensitive. Regarding the Al-resistance mechanisms of the new cultivars, it is suggested that Camellia could have a root Al-exclusion mechanism under Al toxicity. This mechanism could be explained by low Al concentration in roots, suggesting that this cultivar could exude organic acid, allowing to chelate Al in the rhizosphere. Nonetheless, further researches are needed to confirm this assumption.

Guha, Sujay published the artcileCombinatorial glucose, nicotinic acid and N-acetylcysteine therapy has synergistic effect in preclinical C. elegans and zebrafish models of mitochondrial complex I disease, Recommanded Product: (S)-2-hydroxysuccinic acid, the main research area is glucose nicotinic acid acetylcysteine oxidative stress Caenorhabditis zebrafish.

Mitochondrial respiratory chain disorders are empirically managed with variable antioxidant, cofactor and vitamin ′cocktails′. However, clin. trial validated and approved compounds, or doses, do not exist for any single or combinatorial mitochondrial disease therapy. Here, we sought to pre-clin. evaluate whether rationally designed mitochondrial medicine combinatorial regimens might synergistically improve survival, health and physiol. in translational animal models of respiratory chain complex I disease. Having previously demonstrated that gas-1(fc21) complex I subunit ndufs2-/-C. elegans have short lifespan that can be significantly rescued with 17 different metabolic modifiers, signaling modifiers or antioxidants, here we evaluated 11 random combinations of these three treatment classes on gas-1(fc21) lifespan. Synergistic rescue occurred only with glucose, nicotinic acid and N-acetylcysteine (Glu + NA + NAC), yielding improved mitochondrial membrane potential that reflects integrated respiratory chain function, without exacerbating oxidative stress, and while reducing mitochondrial stress (UPRmt) and improving intermediary metabolic disruptions at the levels of the transcriptome, steady-state metabolites and intermediary metabolic flux. Equimolar Glu + NA + NAC dosing in a zebrafish vertebrate model of rotenone-based complex I inhibition synergistically rescued larval activity, brain death, lactate, ATP and glutathione levels. Overall, these data provide objective preclin. evidence in two evolutionary-divergent animal models of mitochondrial complex I disease to demonstrate that combinatorial Glu + NA + NAC therapy significantly improved animal resiliency, even in the face of stressors that cause severe metabolic deficiency, thereby preventing acute neurol. and biochem. decompensation. Clin. trials are warranted to evaluate the efficacy of this lead combinatorial therapy regimen to improve resiliency and health outcomes in human subjects with mitochondrial disease.
