Pea protein isolates (PPI)/phlorotannins (PT)/chitosan (CS) ternary complex and PPI/CS binary complex were synthesized to prepare tomato seed oil (TSO) microcapsules. The concentration of PT was determined to be 0.025% (w/w) based on the solubility, emulsification, and UV-visible spectrum of PPI-PT complex. Subsequently, the optimal pHs associated with the formation of PPI/CS and PPI-PT/CS complex coacervates were determined to be pH 6.6 and 6.1, while the optimal ratios were 9:1 and 6:1, respectively. The coacervate microcapsules were successfully produced by freeze-dried method and those formulated with PPI-PT/CS displayed significantly lower surface oil content (14.57 ± 0.22%), higher encapsulation efficiency (70.54 ± 0.13%), lower particle size (5.97 ± 0.16 μm), and PDI (0.25 ± 0.02) than PPI/CS. The microcapsules were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy. Furthermore, the encapsulated TSO exhibited enhanced thermal and oxidative stability than that of free oil, along with microcapsules fabricated with PPI-PT/CS ternary complex showed better protection than that of free PT. Overall, PPI-PT/CS complex as an effective wall material in delivery system presented great potential.

Hydrophobization could improve the moisture resistance of biopolymer-based materials, depending on the methods and materials used, providing benefits for packaging applications. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of increasing concentrations (0-2.0%) of candelilla wax (CW) and oleic acid (OA) on the structural and physicochemical properties, including water affinity, of glycerol-plasticized pea protein isolate (PPI) films.

Shandong Engineering Research Center for Environment-Friendly Agricultural Pest Management, College of Plant Health and Medicine, Qingdao Agricultural University, Qingdao 266109, China.

Neuropeptide (abbreviated as ) is a recently discovered peptide that is present in many arthropods and is the ligand of the , a member of the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) superfamily, which plays a regulatory role in diverse physiological processes such as feeding, circadian rhythm, insulin production, lipid metabolism, growth, and reproduction. However, the function of this gene in aphids is still unknown. Here, we characterized and determined the potential role of / signaling in the pea aphid, , which is a notorious pest in agriculture.

Key Laboratory of Vegetable Legumes Germplasm Enhancement and Molecular Breeding in Southern China of Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Institute of Vegetables, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Hangzhou 310021, China.

Plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs), one sub-family of aquaporins (AQPs), are responsible for plant abiotic stress responses. However, little information is currently available about the stress responsiveness of the promoter in vegetable pea. In the present study, one novel promoter of which shared high similarity to the -type from other plants, was isolated.

A novel patient group with chronic pulmonary fibrosis is emerging post COVID-19. To identify patients at risk of developing post-COVID-19 lung fibrosis, we here aimed to identify systemic proteins that overlap with fibrotic markers identified in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and may predict COVID-19-induced lung fibrosis. Ninety-two proteins were measured in plasma samples from hospitalized patients with moderate and severe COVID-19 in Sweden, before the introduction of the vaccination program, as well as from healthy individuals.

Introduction: Identifying early risks of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major challenge as the number of patients with AD steadily increases and requires innovative solutions. Current molecular diagnostic modalities, such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) testing and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, exhibit limitations in their applicability for large-scale screening. In recent years, there has been a marked shift toward the development of blood plasma-based diagnostic tests, which offer a more accessible and clinically viable alternative for widespread use.
