To investigate the impact of safflower seed oil on the structural and digestive properties of complexes formed by fatty acids of varying chain lengths with maize starch, the starch-fatty acid ternary complexes were prepared by a hydrothermal method. The results indicated that safflower seed oil inhibited the complexation of relatively short-chain fatty acids (C10:0, C12:0, and C16:0) with starch, and promoted the complexation of long-chain fatty acids (C18:0). Intriguingly, safflower seed oil showed no significant impact on the formation of linoleic acid (C18:2) complexes, suggesting selective interactions within the starch-fatty acid complexes.

This study employed multi-source data alongside hybrid analytical techniques, including Principal Component Analysis (PCA), hotspot analysis, and clustering analysis, to explore the development factors and spatial patterns of the ethnic medicine and healthcare industry (EMH) in Yunnan Province, China. The results indicate that the first five principal components account for 79.

We aimed to screen serum biomarkers in PCOS patients using untargeted lipidomics and ensemble machine learning. Serum from PCOS patients and non-PCOS subjects were collected for untargeted lipidomics analysis.

Despite recent diagnostic progress based on blood-derived sEVs, the inability to specifically profile multiple parameters of sEVs proteins has hampered advancement in clinical applications. Herein, we report an approach to profile colorectal cancer (CRC)-derived sEVs by using multiaptamer-triggered rolling circle amplification (RCA) cascades.
