Compared with milk intake, yogurt intake appears to cause a lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The molecular components responsible for the phenomenon are elusive. We hypothesized that the fermentation would change the lipid profile and fatty acid composition of milk. Untargeted analysis of lipids in milk and yogurt was performed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with Q-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry and gas chromatography (GC) with a flame ionization detector (FID). The results showed that yogurt had increased C4:0-C10:0 fatty acid, rumenic acid (cis-9 and trans-11-18:2), vaccenic acid (trans-11-18:1), linoleic acid (LA), and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) contents, and decreased triglyceride (TG), C16:0 and C18:0 fatty acids, and saturated fatty acid (SFA) contents compared with milk. These results advance the understanding of the difference between yogurt and milk regarding reduced risk of CVD and T2D.

Fungal trunk diseases are of major concern for tree fruit, nut, and grape growers throughout the world. These diseases include Eutypa dieback of grape, caused by , band canker of almond, caused by and , and twig and branch dieback of walnut, caused by , Botryosphaeria dieback of grape, caused by , and , and esca of grape, caused by and . Given the common occurrence of mixed infections, and the similar wood symptoms at the macroscopic level, species-specific detection tools are needed.

Although lipid-derived acetyl-coenzyme A (CoA) is a major carbon source for histone acetylation, the contribution of fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) to this process remains poorly characterized. To investigate this, we generated mitochondrial acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase 1 (ACAT1, distal FAO enzyme) knockout macrophages. C-carbon tracing confirmed reduced FA-derived carbon incorporation into histone H3, and RNA sequencing identified diminished interferon-stimulated gene expression in the absence of ACAT1.

Exogenous neural stem cells (NSCs) have great potential to reconstitute damage spinal neural circuitry. However, regulating the metabolic reprogramming of NSCs for reliable nerve regeneration has been challenging. This report discusses the biomimetic dextral hydrogel (DH) with right-handed nanofibers that specifically reprograms the lipid metabolism of NSCs, promoting their neural differentiation and rapid regeneration of damaged axons.

A novel strain of the genus , named He02, was isolated from flowers of L. in a survey for lactic acid bacteria associated with wild and cultivated plants in the metropolitan area of Valencia, Spain. Partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed a similarity of 99% to DSM 23037=Ryu1-2.

Purpose Of Review: The term metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) refers to a group of progressive steatotic liver conditions that include metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), which has varying degrees of liver fibrosis and may advance to cirrhosis, and independent hepatic steatosis. MASLD has a complex underlying mechanism, with patients exhibiting diverse causes and phases of the disease. India has a pool prevalence of MASLD of 38.
