Article Abstract

The fruit of L. (goji berry) is used as traditional Chinese medicine, and has the functions of immune regulation, anti-tumor, neuroprotection, anti-diabetes, and anti-fatigue. One of the main bioactive components is polysaccharide (LBP). Nowadays, LBP is widely used in the health market, and it is extracted from the fruit of . The planting of needs large amounts of fields, and it takes one year to harvest the goji berry. The efficiency of natural LBP production is low, and the LBP quality is not the same at different places. Goji berry-derived LBP cannot satisfy the growing market demands. Engineered has been used for the biosynthesis of some plant natural products. Recovery of LBP biosynthetic pathway in and expression of them in engineered might lead to the yeast LBP production. However, information on LBP biosynthetic pathways and the related key enzymes of is still limited. In this review, we summarized current studies about LBP biosynthetic pathway and proposed the strategies to recover key enzymes for LBP biosynthesis. Moreover, the potential application of synthetic biology strategies to produce LBP using engineered was discussed.

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a major cause of low back pain (LBP) and poses a substantial economic burden worldwide. Mitochondrial dysfunction, associated with oxidative stress and apoptosis, is linked to various degenerative diseases. Melatonin has emerged as a potential therapeutic agent for preventing IVDD because of its capacity to regulate cellular rhythms.

Polytrauma is a critical global health concern characterized by immune dysregulation and a high risk of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Early molecular mechanisms linking trauma severity to organ injury are poorly understood. We used two rat blast-polytrauma models: a tourniquet-induced ischemia/reperfusion injury (tIRI) model and a non-ischemia/reperfusion injury (non-IRI) model.

High-fat-induced metabolic syndrome poses many challenges to fish farming. In our previous study, we found that probiotic Akkermansia muciniphila can increase the tryptophan microbiota metabolite indole-3-lactic acid (ILA). Therefore, this study further investigates the effect of ILA on resisting HFD-induced metabolic disorders and preliminarily explores its mechanism in zebrafish.

Background: Dementia, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), is a growing concern in Egypt, yet biomarker research in this population is scarce. Identifying serum biomarkers is essential for early diagnosis and understanding disease mechanisms in underrepresented groups.

Methods: We performed serum proteomic profiling on 20 Egyptian dementia patients and 10 cognitively unimpaired controls from the Egyptian Dementia Registry using mass spectrometry.
