The polysaccharides derived from various deproteinization methods were prepared from (FSI) to investigate the prebiotic efficacy of ( ). The implications of polysaccharides from FSI (PFSI) gained after purification performed by non-deproteinization and different deproteinization processes (Savage method, papain method, and TCA method) one-factor optimization were firstly investigated for the influences on the growth of . The utilization of carbohydrate sources and the synthesis of protein and lactate during its growth were analyzed, as well as the variations of LDH, SOD, and GSH- Px enzyme dynamics. The results showed that the one-factor optimization of the deproteinization process with the protein removal rate and polysaccharide retention rate as the indexes led to the optimal methods of the Sevage method with 5 elution times, papain method with 80 U/mL concentration, and TCA method with 2.5 ratio, respectively. In addition, the PFSI obtained with or without deproteinization purification had a certain effect on promoting proliferation. Moreover, the PFSI gained by the third deproteinization purification, at a concentration of 10 g/L, significantly elevated biomass and growth rate compared with the blank control, and the utilization of reducing sugars and the synthesis of protein and lactic acid were higher than the control (P < 0.05); improved LDH, SOD, and GSH-Px activity in (P < 0.05), and the TCA method could be effectively applied to eliminate the proteins affecting FSI in probiotics, and PFSI may be a potentially beneficial prebiotic and intestinal reinforcer.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) influenced by multiple factors. Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid derived from the root and bark of Franch., has shown promise in managing UC, but its underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the alterations in serum bile acid profiles among individuals with fatty liver (including non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) and alcoholic fatty liver (AFL) and evaluate their clinical significance when combined with liver enzyme levels.
Methods: A cohort of 110 individuals with fatty liver (including non-alcoholic fatty liver 58 individuals and alcoholic fatty liver 52 individuals) was selected from the Department of Gastroenterology at Wenzhou People's Hospital between January 2021 and December 2022, while a control group of 66 healthy individuals was recruited from the hospital's health examination center during the same period. Clinical data and blood samples were collected from all participants.

Introduction: Protein acetylation is an extensively investigated post-translational modification (PTM). In addition to lysine acetylation, three new types of lysine acylations characterized by the presence of an acidic carboxylic group have been recently identified and validated. These included lysine malonylation (Kmal), lysine succinylation (Ksucc) and lysine glutarylation (Kglu).

Objective: To evaluate the effect of a newly developed MTA-based material and two antibacterial-enhanced MTAs as pulp capping materials in immature permanent dental elements underwent full pulpotomy.
Methods: The present animal study included 20 Wistar albino rats that, after full pulpotomy, were randomly divided into 4 groups receiving different MTA formulations as pulp capping materials: conventional MTA, Tricalcium aluminate (TCA)- free MTA, and MTA enhanced with metronidazole or doxycycline. Histopathological assessments were carried out at 7- and 28-days post-treatment to evaluate dentinal bridge formation, inflammatory reactions, pulp tissue necrosis and internal resorption.

Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), a natural tetramer comprising PHA-E and PHA-L subunits that preferentially bind to red and white blood cells, respectively, constitutes a significant antinutritional and allergenic factor in common bean seeds. The accurate measurement of PHA content is a prerequisite for ensuring food safety inspections and facilitating genetic improvements in common bean cultivars with reduced PHA levels. Currently, mainstream methods for PHA quantification involve hemagglutination assays and immunodetection, but these methods often require fresh animal blood and lack specificity and accuracy.
