Modular Metabolic Engineering of for Enhanced Production of Ursolic Acid.
J Agric Food Chem
January 2025
State Key Laboratory of Synthetic Biology, School of Chemical Engineering and Technology, Tianjin University, Yaguan Road 135, Jinnan District, Tianjin 300350, China.
Ursolic acid, a plant-derived pentacyclic triterpenoid with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and other bioactive properties, holds significant potential for use in nutritional supplements and drug development. However, its extraction from medicinal plants is inefficient due to low yield and dependence on seasonality and geography. Herein, we use modular metabolic engineering to enhance ursolic acid production in by dividing the biosynthetic pathway into five modules.

Hand-rearing of marine mammals is an essential technique for the husbandry of orphans in captivity or the wild, especially endangered cetacean species. The purpose of the present study was to establish a method for successful hand-rearing and evaluate the nutritional state of neonatal finless porpoises. Two neonate finless porpoises maternally neglected at 5 days of age (Day 5) (neonate A, animal A) and Day 4 (neonate B, animal B) were hand reared.

Article Synopsis
- Food is a multisensory experience, relying on visuals, taste, smell, and, surprisingly, texture to assess nutritional value and safety.
- Despite being overlooked, texture offers crucial information about food's physical properties, like hardness and liquidity.
- Recent findings show that some sensory neurons are not limited to specific stimuli; instead, they can respond broadly, indicating greater sensory complexity than previously thought.
Development of bone mineral density and content in children with cerebral palsy: a retrospective, longitudinal study.
J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab
January 2025
Center of Prevention and Rehabilitation, UniReha, University of Cologne, Medical Faculty and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate long-term bone development in children with cerebral palsy (CP) using longitudinal measurements of total body less head bone mineral content (TBLH-BMC) and bone mineral density (TBLH-BMD).
Methods: A retrospective longitudinal analysis was performed on 109 children with CP who participated in a rehabilitation programme from 2006 to 2018. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans were performed at the beginning of the programme and repeated as clinically indicated.
Precision nutrition-based interventions for the management of obesity in children and adolescents up to the age of 19 years.
Cochrane Database Syst Rev
January 2025
Cornell Joan Klein Jacobs Center for Precision Nutrition and Health, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, USA.
Background: Precision nutrition-based methods develop tailored interventions and/or recommendations accounting for determinants of intra- and inter-individual variation in response to the same diet, compared to current 'one-size-fits-all' population-level approaches. Determinants may include genetics, current dietary habits and eating patterns, circadian rhythms, health status, gut microbiome, socioeconomic and psychosocial characteristics, and physical activity. In this systematic review, we examined the evidence base for the effect of interventions based on precision nutrition approaches on overweight and obesity in children and adolescents to help inform future research and global guidelines.
