Article Abstract

Unlabelled: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermentation has been shown to improve the nutritional and functional activity of grains. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in physicochemical properties, antioxidant activity, hypoglycaemic activity and metabolites of maize juice after fermentation with two species of Lactobacillus and . The non-targeted metabolomics analysis based on UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS metabolomics method was performed to reveal the metabolic mechanism of corn juice. Compared with the unfermented sample, lactic acid fermentation increased corn juice's antioxidant activity and hypoglycemic activity. Both fermented samples and their unfermented counterparts yielded a total of 2890 metabolites, of which 296 differential metabolites were detected. These metabolites were primarily concentrated organic acids and derivatives, lipid-like molecules, and organic oxygen compounds. Lactic acid fermentation significantly changed the metabolite composition and enhanced the biological activity of corn juice which provides a theoretical basis for the processing and utilisation of maize.

Introduction: Lactate has emerged as a multifunctional signaling molecule regulating various physiological and pathological processes. Furthermore, lactylation, a newly identified posttranslational modification triggered by lactate accumulation, plays significant roles in human health and diseases. This study aims to investigate the roles of lactate/lactylation in respiratory diseases.

Electroactive bacteria (EAB) hold great promise for the development of electrochemical biosensors given their unique ability to transfer electrons extracellularly via specialized pathways, a process termed extracellular electron transfer (EET). Ongoing research aims to overcome current limitations and fully harness the potential of EABs for high-performance biosensing applications. Herein, we report the fabrication of an electrochemical microsensor based on biomineralized electroactive bacteria, specifically MR-1.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease driven by endothelial dysfunction, vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation, and insufficient resolution of inflammation. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a crucial role in vascular homeostasis by promoting endothelial cell proliferation, maintaining endothelial integrity, suppressing smooth muscle cell hyperplasia, and exerting potent anti-inflammatory effects. However, clinical application of NO is hindered by its short half-life, lack of targeting, and uncontrolled release.

Introduction: Fermented buffalo milk products from South Asia remain an underexplored source of microbial diversity with potential health-promoting benefits. This study investigates the probiotic and industrial suitability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and non-LAB isolates from traditional Pakistani dairy, addressing gaps in region-specific probiotic discovery.

Methods: Forty-seven bacterial isolates were obtained from fermented buffalo milk products (yogurt and cheese).

SLC16A3 (MCT4) expression in tumor immunity and Metabolism: Insights from pan-cancer analysis.

Biochem Biophys Rep

June 2025

The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China.

Background: SLC16A3, a highly expressed H + -coupled symporter, facilitates lactate transport via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), contributing to acidosis. Although SLC16A3 has been implicated in tumor development, its role in tumor immunity remains unclear.

Methods: A pan-cancer analysis was conducted using datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, and Genotype-Tissue Expression projects.
