Finding a way to establish a sustainable cultivation system to produce celery as an important source of human being nutrition system due to its health and nutritional advantages is increasing by the day. Amino acids have a deep impact on plant metabolism; they improve mineral uptake and increase shoots and root growth, yield, chlorophyll biosynthesis, and photosynthesis rate as well as encouraging stimulation of several enzymes and coenzymes which lead to improved plant development and production besides quality. A two-year (2021/2022-2022/2023), trial was conducted to discuss two essential amino acids Glycine (GLY) and Tryptophan (TRP) effect on celery's growth, production, photosynthetic pigments, vitamin (C), total phenols, total flavonoids, total antioxidant activity, total indoles, nutritional status, and amino acids contents. During the winter season, three levels of each amino acid (0, 50, and 75 mg/l) were sprayed in two doses after 30 days of cultivation and 15 days from the first foliar. Results showed that the best performance of amino acids on plants vegetative growth characteristics, photosynthetic pigments, biochemical constituents, yield, and amino acids content was conducted by using (GLY + TRP) mix followed by TRP then GLY, while the best level of foliar applied amino acids was 75 mg/l in concentration. The best results on celery's vegetative growth, yield, chemical content, and amino acid content were recorded by using the (GLY + TRP) mix at the highest level of 75 mg/l in concentration.

The occurrence of external L-glutamate at the Arabidopsis root tip triggers major changes in root architecture, but the mechanism of -L-Glu sensing is unknown. Members of the family of GLUTAMATE RECEPTOR-LIKE (GLR) proteins are known to act as amino acid-gated Ca-permeable channels and to have signalling roles in diverse plant processes. To investigate the possible role of GLRs in the root architectural response to L-Glu, we screened a collection of mutants with T-DNA insertions in each of the 20 AtGLR genes.

Here, we present a three-component successive radical addition strategy for the preparation of complex noncanonical α-amino acids from easily available glycine derivatives, alkenes, and aryl sulfonium salts via a copper-catalyzed photoredox-neutral catalytic cycle. The utility of this method is further demonstrated by its application in late-stage site-selective modifications of glycine residues in short peptides. It is worth noting that only 1 mol % copper catalyst is required in this reaction, demonstrating high catalytic efficiency.

Defining metabolic health is critical for the earlier reversing of metabolic dysfunction and disease, and fasting-based diagnosis may not adequately assess an individual's metabolic adaptivity under stress. We constructed a novel Health State Map (HSM) comprising a Health Phenotype Score (HPS) with fasting features alone and a Homeostatic Resilience Score (HRS) with five time-point features only ( = 30, 60, 90, 180, 240 min) following a standardized mixed macronutrient tolerance test (MMTT). Among 111 Chinese adults, when the same set of fasting and post-MMTT data as for the HSM was used, the mixed-score was highly correlated with the HPS.

Background: Multiple studies suggest a plausible connection between urologic cancers and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) breakdown metabolic enzymes. Nevertheless, there is scarce exploration into the variations in circulating BCAAs. In our research, we utilize bidirectional, two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to predict the link between BCAAs levels and three distinct types of urological tumors.

Background: The growing demand for natural, health-promoting food products has led to increased interest in integrating nutrient-rich ingredients into everyday foods. The addition of leaves may increase nutrient profile, including essential amino acids, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals in edible products.
Aim: The study aimed to optimize the addition of leaves in bread, noodles, and pasta and evaluate sensory attributes using a nine-point hedonic scale and nutritional analysis.
