Article Synopsis
- Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a serious condition in older adults with no current drug treatments available, making effective therapy crucial.
- Researchers developed nanoparticles (LaCD NPs) that target and regulate neutrophil inflammation, showing significant reductions in AAA progression in rat models by decreasing aortic expansion and improving structural health.
- The nanoparticles effectively inhibit harmful inflammatory responses, particularly the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), which are linked to AAA growth, highlighting their potential for targeted therapies in AAA and similar inflammatory conditions.
Soft and solid fats which were fractionated from Pangasius bocourti oil (PBO), namely, Pangasius bocourti olein (PBOL) and Pangasius bocourti stearin (PBST), respectively, were introduced as new base oils for plastic fats. The physicochemical properties of PBO and its fractions were modified after interesterification. Enzymatic interesterification (EIE) reduced the sn-2 palmitic acid content attributed to the occurrence of acyl migration.

The thermo-oxidative stability of PO, basa catfish oil (FO), and palm olein-basa fish oil blend (PO-FO; ratio 1:1) was evaluated after 75 frying cycles. No significant difference was observed in p-anisidine value, TOTOX value, conjugated trienes, monomeric oxidized triacylglycerols, and free fatty acids concentration after frying.
