The effects and significance of γ-amino butyric acid (GABA) producing bacteria (GPB) on in vitro rumen fermentation and reduction of biogenic amines (histamine, methylamine, ethylamine, and tyramine) using corn meal as a substrate were determined. Ruminal samples collected from ruminally fistulated Holstein cows served as inoculum and corn was used as substrate at 2% dry matter (DM). Different inclusion rates of GPB and GABA were evaluated. After incubation, addition of GPB had no significant effect on in vitro fermentation pH and total gas production, but significantly increased the ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) concentration and reduced the total biogenic amines production (p<0.05). Furthermore, antioxidation activity was improved as indicated by the significantly higher concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) among treated samples when compared to the control (p<0.05). Additionally, 0.2% GPB was established as the optimum inclusion level. Taken together, these results suggest the potential of utilizing GPB as feed additives to improve growth performance in ruminants by reducing biogenic amines and increasing anti-oxidation.

In the context of organic farming, the introduction of a local product to wider markets and an evaluation of storage effects, metabolic and transcriptomic variations in two broccoli rabe genotypes from production cycles of two different years were studied by comparing florets of stored fresh (SF) and packaged (P) for 4 days with those harvested fresh from the field (H). Twenty-five hydrosoluble compounds, including amino acids, carbohydrates, and organic acids, were quantified by untargeted nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Principal component analysis produced a neat separation among the three commodity statuses with P being the most divergent and SF closer to H.

This study was aimed to develop a highly productive microbial fermentation process for gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) production from glucose. For this, an efficient GABA-producing E. coli strain was firstly developed through metabolic engineering with a strategy of increasing the flux of GABA biosynthetic pathway and deleting or repressing the GABA shunt pathways that compete with GABA biosynthesis.

Energy metabolism of immune cells, such as glycolysis and mitochondrial activity, requires strict regulation. This is especially critical in the complex environment of the bone marrow (BM), where there is a need to both preserve the quiescence of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and guarantee timed and effective lineage differentiation of the HSCs. Recent advances highlight the critical roles played by bioactive metabolites in regulating hematopoiesis.
