Fermented dietary fiber from soy sauce residue exerts antidiabetic effects through regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and gut microbiota-SCFAs-GPRs axis in type 2 diabetic mellitus mice.

The gut plays a crucial role in the development and progression of metabolic disorders, particularly in relation to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). While a high intake of dietary fiber is inversely associated with the risk of T2DM, the specific effects of various dietary fibers on T2DM are not fully understood. This study investigated the anti-diabetic properties of fermented dietary fiber (FDF) derived from soy sauce residue in T2DM mice, demonstrating its ability to lower blood glucose levels and ameliorate insulin resistance.

Dietary nobiletin regulated cefuroxime- and levofloxacin-associated "gut microbiota-metabolism" imbalance and intestinal barrier dysfunction in mice.

Nobiletin (NOB) exhibits significant biological activities and may be a potential dietary treatment for antibiotic-associated gut dysbiosis. In this study, mice were gavaged with 0.2 mL day of 12.

Dietary 5-demethylnobiletin attenuated dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis in mice by inhibiting immune response and regulating gut microbiota.

This study investigated the preventive effect of 5-demethylnobiletin (5DN), a natural polymethoxyflavone found mainly in citrus fruits, on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice and explored its potential mechanisms. Our results indicated that dietary 5DN (0.05% w/w in diet) could alleviate colitis symptoms in DSS-treated mice by preventing body weight loss, reducing the disease activity index, decreasing the colon weight to colon length ratio, and lessening colon tissue damage.

Alkaline lysis-recombinase polymerase amplification combined with CRISPR/Cas12a assay for the ultrafast visual identification of pork in meat products.

The "Horsemeat Scandal" makes people pay more attention to the meat authenticity. However, expensive equipment, complicated operations, and professional personnel of current methods limit their field testing. In this study, CRISPR/Cas12a combined with recombinase polymerase amplification was used to establish a sensitive and rapid detection method for pig-derived component.
