Stroke is a serious life-threatening medical condition. Understanding the underlying molecular mechanisms of this condition is crucial to identifying novel therapeutic targets that can improve patient outcomes. Autophagy is an essential mechanism for the destruction of damaged intracellular components that maintains homeostasis in physiological or pathological conditions.

Background: Several modifiable risk factors, including dietary habits, are linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) progression. However, lifestyle changes remain notoriously challenging, perhaps due to psychosocial factors. This pilot study aims to investigate the relationship between adherence to a healthy diet, CVD risk factors, psychological factors and sociodemographic variables among middle-aged adults in Sweden.

Upcycling of Enzymatically Recovered Amino Acids from Textile Waste Blends: Approaches for Production of Valuable Second-Generation Bioproducts.

ACS Sustain Resour Manag

January 2025

Department of Agrobiotechnology, IFA-Tulln, Institute of Environmental Biotechnology, BOKU University, Vienna, Konrad-Lorenz-Strasse 20, 3430 Tulln an der Donau, Austria.

Tremendous quantities of textile waste generated and primarily landfilled annually represent a huge risk of contaminating the environment, together with loss of valuable resources. Especially, blended fabrics further pose a challenge for recycling and valorization strategies, while enzymatic hydrolysis offers a highly specific and environmentally friendly solution. In this study, we demonstrate that proteases specifically hydrolyze the wool components in blends with polyester, allowing recovery of pure polyester fibers as well as amino acids and peptides as platform molecules for further valorization.

Application of bacterioruberin from sp. isolated from Xinjiang desert to extend the shelf-life of fruits during postharvest storage.

Food Chem (Oxf)

June 2025

State Key Laboratory of Desert and Oasis Ecology, Key Laboratory of Ecological Safety and Sustainable Development in Arid Lands, Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Urumqi 830011, China.

Post-harvest losses and rapid fruit ripening at room temperature are major challenges in preserving fruit quality. This study aimed to reduce such losses by applying a red carotenoid pigment, bacterioruberin extracted from an sp. The carotenoid was characterized as bacterioruberin and its derivative tetra anhydrous bacterioruberin (λmax 490 nm), and an / value of 675 and 742 (M+ 1H).

Classical tissue recombination experiments demonstrate that cell-fate determination along the anterior-posterior axis of the Müllerian duct occurs prior to postnatal day 7 in mice. However, little is known about how these cell types are maintained in adults. In this study, we provide genetic evidence that a balance between antagonistic retinoic acid (RA) and estrogen signaling activity is required to maintain simple columnar cell fate in adult uterine epithelium.
