Scientific literature is evident that the germinated seeds possess a promising potential for essential nutrients, flavors, and textural attributes over nongerminated grain. In recent decades, sprouting has also been investigated as a potential green food engineering technique to boost the nutritive profile of grains. Sprouting grains have multifold applications in different fields such as baking, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. During sprouting, shifting of molecular structures to macroscopic takes place. Sprouting reactivates the grain metabolism which leads to the catabolism and degradation of antinutrient and macronutrient compounds. These modifications have an effect on human health and on the nutritional content of the foodstuffs. Sprouting grains have high bioactivity against diabetes and cancer. Germination is also an outstanding green food development technique to increase the seed nutritive profile in terms of quality. The present review focuses on the sprouting of grains, changes in nutritional profile, and the technological exploration of sprouted grains.

Unlabelled: Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) of wheat ( L.) is one of the complex traits that result in rainfall-dependent reductions in grain production and quality worldwide. Breeding new varieties and germplasm with PHS resistance is of great importance to reduce this problem.

Blood vessel formation relies on biochemical and mechanical signals, particularly during sprouting angiogenesis when endothelial tip cells (TCs) guide sprouting through filopodia formation. The contribution of BMP receptors in defining tip-cell characteristics is poorly understood. Our study combines genetic, biochemical, and molecular methods together with 3D traction force microscopy, which reveals an essential role of BMPR2 for actin-driven filopodia formation and mechanical properties of endothelial cells (ECs).

Microglia, the brain-resident immune cells, orchestrate neuroinflammatory responses and are crucial in the progression of neurological diseases, including ischemic stroke (IS), which accounts for approximately 85% of all strokes worldwide. Initially deemed detrimental, microglial activation has been shown to perform protective functions in the ischemic brain. Besides their effects on neurons, microglia play a role in promoting post-ischemic angiogenesis, a pivotal step for restoring oxygen and nutrient supply.

In this study, BC1F3:4 generation plants derived from the hybrid crosses of Rio Blanco × Nevzatbey, Rio Blanco × Adana99, and Rio Blanco × line 127 were used as experimental material. These hybrids incorporated QTLs associated with pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) resistance through molecular techniques. Key agronomic traits, including plant height, spike length, the number of grains per spike, grain weight, and physiological maturity, were evaluated in both greenhouse and growth room settings under accelerated growth (speed breeding) conditions.

Background: The dibutyl phthalate (DBP) is a member of the phthalate family and is widely used as a plasticizer in daily life and production. However, the influence of DBP on the vascular developmental remains unclear.

Methods: In this study, we used zebrafish as a model organism to investigate the effects of DBP on vascular development in vivo.
