In the present study, a Bacillus subtilis expression system was used to overexpress the gene of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and the NOS was subsequently purified and added to fermented sausages to assess its colouration ability. The results indicated that NOS activity in the nos-recombinant strain was approximately 58-fold higher than that in the wild-type strain (P < 0.05). In a meat model system supplemented with metmyoglobin, the addition of NOS alone exhibited a significant effect on colour formation (P < 0.05), whereas inoculation with Mammaliicoccus vitulinus enhanced the red colour (P < 0.05). The results of the ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectral analysis showed that more nitrosyl myoglobin (NO-Mb) was formed in the model system. In fermented sausages, the addition of NOS together with the inoculation of M. vitulinus led to a significant increase in the concentration of NO-Mb and the redness value (P < 0.05). The present study offers a potential solution for enhancing the colour formation in fermented sausages using an enzymatic method.

Cerebral infarction is a common type of stroke with high incidence and disability rates, and most patients experience varying degrees of cognitive impairment. The manifestations and severity of post-infarction cognitive impairment are influenced by multiple interacting factors, and its pathophysiological mechanisms are highly complex, involving pericyte degeneration, excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), overproduction of glutamate, and overactivation of autophagy. After cerebral infarction, abnormal pericyte function activates neuroinflammation and facilitates the entry of inflammatory mediators into the brain; detachment of pericytes from blood vessels disrupts the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.

Frequent degenerative joint diseases, known as arthritis, are characterized by joint inflammation and cartilage breakdown. Various arthritis types are traditionally managed with intra-articular injections of hyaluronan or its derivatives. However, intravenous administration of hyaluronan is emerging as a vital alternative, particularly because intra-articular injections can be challenging for clinicians when targeting small or swollen joints.

However, there is no published evidence concerning the possible influence of oxidative stress on antidepressant treatment outcomes. This study investigated the ability of oxidative stress markers to predict treatment outcomes in GAD patients treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).

The study of the T786C polymorphism of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene in arterial hypertension is important as its correlation with adipokine imbalance is a novelty area to find associations between hypertension development, obesity, and heredity. The purpose of the current study was to investigate serum adipokines levels, depending on the T786C polymorphism of the eNOS in patients with arterial hypertension.
