Summary: Obtaining peptides with antioxidant properties by non-enzymatic hydrolysis has been investigated in this study. Delipidated egg yolk granules were hydrolyzed with trypsin and with a non-enzymatic method using sub-critical water hydrolysis. The results showed that sub-critical water hydrolysis under a nitrogen stream produced peptides with good antioxidant capacities compared to enzymatic hydrolysis, while the oxygen environment in sub-critical water hydrolysis reduced the antioxidant capacities of the peptides.

Summary: Fish protein hydrolysates obtained from industrial processing residues are sources of bioactive peptides, with the ability to inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. This study investigated the effect of different hydrolysis conditions on the properties of FPH, and chemometric evaluation helped select optimal conditions for enzyme inhibition. Results suggest that the inhibition of AChE may be primarily due to basic amino acids like arginine.

Summary: TLR5 is a crucial pattern recognition receptor involved in the first-line defense against invading pathogenic bacteria. Studies on mrigala have shown the structural basis of TLR5-flagellin recognition, highlighting differences in binding interface compared to zebrafish. The findings suggest TLR5 in mrigala recognizes a conserved site on flagellin, emphasizing the importance of exploring host-specific differences in receptor activation.

Summary: In intensive farming systems, incorporating health-promoting compounds like proteins, hydrolysates, and bioactive peptides into fish feed is crucial for enhancing defense mechanisms, growth, and immune functions of fish. Fish processing waste can be converted into valuable products such as fish protein hydrolysate (FPH), which is rich in nutrients and antioxidants, improving fish growth, immune response, and disease resistance. The production of targeted FPH with superior functionalities has high demand in aquafeed supplements, showing potential for sustainable aquaculture development.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of chitosan addition on the emulsifying properties of egg yolk hydrolysates. The results showed that a small amount of chitosan was unhelpful for emulsion stability, while an appropriate concentration could improve the stability of the composite emulsion. Additionally, the combination of chitosan with hydrolyzed egg yolk may have a negative impact on the oxidative stability of the emulsion system.

Summary: The anti-biofilm effects of ovotransferrin and its hydrolysates against Listeria monocytogenes were investigated in this study. The hydrolysates prepared with papain exhibited the highest biofilm eradication activity, leading to decreased cell surface hydrophobicity, auto-aggregation, exopolysaccharide production, and expression of genes related to biofilm-forming activity. These findings suggest that ovotransferrin hydrolysates, especially those prepared with papain, could be used as natural anti-biofilm agents to control food poisoning in the food industry.

Summary: Peanut worms, unsegmented marine worms, are a good source of bioactive compounds. Studies have shown that peptides and polysaccharides derived from peanut worms have a variety of bioactive properties. However, most studies have been conducted in vitro and in animal models, and more human studies are needed for better utilization of these marine bioactive compounds.

Summary: Valproic acid (VPA) administration to 14-day postnatal (PND) BALB/c mice induces autism-like behaviors and brain histopathological changes in both males and females. Both male and female mice showed similar morphological changes in the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus and Purkinje cells. Hair loss was observed from PND 17 to 25 in both male and female mice. However, there were higher rates of change in the cerebral cortex, frontal cortex, temporal lobe and hippocampus in VPA-treated male mice. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed a higher rate of phenotype changes in VPA-treated male mice in the cerebellum. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed upregulated 5-HT2A receptor protein levels in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and Purkinje cells in VPA-treated male mice compared to control animals and VPA-treated female mice. Based on these findings, we conclude that male animals are more susceptible to VPA-induced autism spectrum disorder than females.

Summary: This study investigates the variations in lipid digestion profiles among individuals of different ages using in vitro digestion models. The findings suggest that adults have a more comprehensive lipid digestion compared to infants, and infants tend to release shorter chain length and more saturated free fatty acids during digestion. Additionally, the particle sizes in the stomach of the elderly were consistently larger. This study enhances our understanding of how lipids with different degrees of unsaturation undergo digestion in diverse age groups.

Summary: Chitosan-pectin emulsion-filled hydrogel (EFH) was developed to enhance the bioaccessibility of lipophilic bioactive compounds through intestinal delivery. The EFH, prepared without crosslinking agents, demonstrated improved mechanical strength and compactness with higher pectin concentration. It retained the emulsion at pH 2.0 and released it at pH 7.4, resulting in enhanced release of free fatty acids and improved bioaccessibility of curcumin.

Summary: This study investigated the acidification of aroma-enhanced black tea during storage. Analysis of non-volatile substances and organic acids using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and HPLC revealed a decrease in soluble sugars and amino acids, while an increase in organic acids such as oxalic acid, malic acid, and quinic acid. In vitro experiments further demonstrated that the acidification is a result of the decomposition of sugars and amino acids by heating, as well as the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes. Additionally, the study showed that the taste composition of tea infusion is altered, with reduced amino acids, catechins, soluble sugars, and flavonoids. This research provides a theoretical basis for improving the quality of black tea.
