The present research work was based on evaluating the effects of leaf extract (EULE) on the technological quality and protein oxidation of cooked pork sausage during refrigerated storage. Sausages were manufactured with different levels of EULE (0, 0.15, and 0.3 g/kg) and stored at 4 °C for 3, 20, and 40 d, respectively. Quality attributes including cooking loss, texture, and color were evaluated, and the total carbonyl and total sulfhydryl as well as the specific markers α-aminoadipic acid semialdehyde (AAS) and lysinonorleucine (LNL) were analyzed for protein oxidation. The results revealed that the inclusion of EULE exhibited effectiveness in reducing the formation of protein carbonyls, particularly AAS and LNL, while inhibiting the loss of total sulfhydryl. Nevertheless, EULE increased the cooking loss, hardness, and chewiness of the sausages compared to the control group. These findings demonstrated that EULE could be considered a potential natural antioxidant for use in sausage production.

Silkworms are emerging as a sustainable food source to address global food security, with their proteins recognized for nutritional and medicinal benefits. However, the impact of silkworm oil on immunological and pharmacological effects remains unexplored. This study explores the effects of the muga (Antheraea assamensis Helfer) silkworm pupal oil fraction (MP) on palmitic acid (PA) induced hepatic steatosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress.

Objectives: Acute lung injury (ALI) is an acute respiratory failure syndrome characterized by impaired gas exchange. Due to the lack of effective targeted drugs, it is associated with high mortality and poor prognosis. (TW) has demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity in the treatment of various diseases.

Polyphenols, rich in phenolic structures, are widely found in plants and known for disturbing the cellular oxidative stress and regulating the signal pathways of tumor proliferation and metastasis, making them valuable in cancer therapy. Polyphenols display high adherence due to the presence of phenolic hydroxyl groups, which enables the formation of covalent and non-covalent interactions with different materials. However, nonspecific adhesion of polyphenols carries significant risks in applications as polyphenols might adhere to proteins and polysaccharides in the bloodstream or gastrointestinal tract, leading to thrombosis and lithiasis.

Esophageal cancer is a major cause of cancer-related death, often preceded with chronic inflammation and injuries. The NFκB/IKKβ pathway plays a central role in inflammation, yet its role in early esophageal carcinogenesis remains unclear. This study investigated the role of epithelial IKKβ in early esophageal carcinogenesis.

Aims: Skeletal muscle energetic augmentation might be a mechanism via which intravenous iron improves symptoms in heart failure, but no direct measurement of intrinsic mitochondrial function has been performed to support this notion. This molecular substudy of the FERRIC-HF II trial tested the hypothesis that ferric derisomaltose (FDI) would improve electron transport chain activity, given its high dependence on iron-sulfur clusters which facilitate electron transfer during oxidative phosphorylation.
Methods And Results: Vastus lateralis skeletal muscle biopsies were taken before and 2 weeks after randomization.
