A high-throughput fragment-based screen has been employed to discover a series of quinazolinone inositol hexakisphosphate kinase (IP6K) inhibitors. IP6Ks have been studied for their role in glucose homeostasis, metabolic disease, fatty liver disease, chronic kidney disease, blood coagulation, neurological development, and psychiatric disease. IP6Ks phosphorylate inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) to form pyrophosphate 5-diphospho-1,2,3,4,6-pentakisphosphate (IP7). Molecular docking studies and investigation of structure-activity relationships around the quinazolinone core resulted in compounds with submicromolar potency and interesting selectivity for IP6K1 versus the closely related IP6K2 and IP6K3 isoforms.

Extensive nutritional analyses were conducted for palm kernel meal (PKM) sourced from 5 countries. Two precision-fed rooster trials were conducted to evaluate the nitrogen-corrected true metabolizable energy (TME) and standardized amino acid (AA) digestibility of 10 PKM samples (PKM 1 to 10). The TME was determined using conventional Single Comb White Leghorn roosters, and standardized AA digestibility was determined using cecectomized roosters.

The global rise in population has led to an increased demand for food production, necessitating the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices. Traditional methods often rely on synthetic chemicals that negatively impact both human health and the environment. This study aimed to screen soil fungal strains for plant-growth-promoting traits, specifically focusing on their ability to solubilize phosphates, produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and synthesize siderophores.

Phytate in plants (inositol phosphates, InsPs) affects mineral bioavailability. However, methods for their quantification may lead to variable results, and some are nonspecific (spectrophotometric techniques). In this study, ion-pair high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was coupled with post-column derivatization to allow fluorescence detection (FLD, λ324/λ364 nm) of InsPs.

In this study, we realized a real-time and enzyme-free measurement of lactate in sweat in the same way as an enzyme-based amperometric method. A conductive polymer, which is based on polyaniline (PANI), was strongly coated on a glassy carbon electrode as a poly -aminophenylboronic acid (PANI-PBA) membrane by drop-casting, which is a convenient method, owing to adhesive phytic acid (PA) molecules with negative charges included as a dopant. This polymer membrane had a functional structure with PBA in the PANI main chain, which expectedly induced electrical charges upon diol binding to lactate, owing to the formation of deprotonated boronate esters with negative charges.
