Article Abstract

(EF), a highly nutritious food, is an excellent source of resistant starch (RS). This study compared the structure, physicochemical properties, and probiotic activities of RS from North (NEFRS) and South EF (SEFRS). NEFRS exhibited a higher RS content (∼10 %) than SEFRS (∼4 %) and demonstrated superior crystallinity (21.66 %), thermal stability (ΔH = 21.85 J/g), and molecular order, whereas SEFRS contained more double helices (ΔH = 4.17 J/g). Both displayed type A crystalline structures, with RS5 amylose-lipid complexes being more abundant in NEFRS during growth. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified bound fatty acids, including palmitic, linoleic, trans-oleic, and stearic acids, confirmed through synthesis. Probiotic assays revealed EFRS enhanced the growth of and , while NEFRS exhibited stronger inhibition against and . Overall, this study systematically elucidated the EFRS differences between two species, providing valuable insights into functional product development and EF deep processing.

The poor prognosis constitutes a significant difficulty for spinal cord injury (SCI) individuals. Although mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold promises as advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) for SCI patients, challenges such as Good Manufacturing Practice-compliant manufacturing, cellular senescence, and limited therapeutic efficacy continue to hinder their clinical translation. Recent advances have identified botanical nanovesicles (BNs) as potent bioactive mediators capable of "priming" MSCs to self-rejuvenate, augment paracrine effect, and establish inflammatory tolerance.

Drug absorption significantly influences pharmacokinetics. Accurately predicting human oral bioavailability (HOB) is essential for optimizing drug candidates and improving clinical success rates. The traditional method based on experiment is a common way to obtain HOB, but the experimental method is time-consuming and costly.

Natural phytoconstituents such as betanin and curcumin have attracted interest for their significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Their therapeutic efficacy is notably constrained by inadequate bioavailability and reduced skin permeability. The current study developed an ethosome-based gel system for the delivery of betanin and curcumin, with the objective of improving transdermal penetration and providing sustained anti-inflammatory effects.

Glycerol and glycerol-3-phosphate are key metabolites at the intersection of carbohydrate, lipid and energy metabolism. Their production and usage are organismal and cell type specific. Glycerol has unique physicochemical properties enabling it to function as an osmolyte, protein structure stabilizer, antimicrobial and antifreeze agent, important to preservation of many biological functions.
