In vitro evaluation of sacituzumab govitecan in non-small cell lung cancer with actionable genomic alterations.

PURPOSE: The TROP2-directed antibody-drug conjugate sacituzumab govitecan (SG) has shown substantial therapeutic benefit in several malignancies; however, preclinical evidence supporting its activity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is rare. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We evaluated 16 NSCLC cell lines harboring actionable genomic alterations for TROP2 expression and treated them with SG or its unconjugated payload, SN-38, for 3 days to determine cytotoxic effects. Apoptosis and DNA damage signaling were assessed using flow cytometry and western blot. SG internalization and lysosomal trafficking were visualized by confocal microscopy. RESULTS: SG had greater cytotoxic potency than SN-38, across all NSCLC cell lines, independent of genomic subtype or TROP2 expression level. Cell lines that were sensitive to SN-38 showed enhanced vulnerability to SG (P < 0.0001). Higher SLFN11 expression, a recognized determinant of SN-38 responsiveness, correlated with lower SG IC50 values. Both SG and SN-38 triggered apoptotic and DNA damage responses within 6-48 h, with SG inducing stronger activation of these pathways than SN-38. SG was efficiently taken up in CUTO17 and SNU-3173 adenocarcinoma cells, with more than 60% of the conjugate internalized within 3 h and subsequently localized to lysosomes. CONCLUSION: Our study provides in vitro evidence supporting the potential activity of SG in NSCLC with actionable genomic alterations. The efficacy of SG closely paralleled intrinsic sensitivity to the SN-38 payload, suggesting that DNA-damage responses, rather than oncogenic drivers, predominantly contribute to SG activity.

Mitigating pH-induced instability in deruxtecan-based ADCs: an onboard-mixing icIEF approach for robust charge heterogeneity characterization.

Accurate charge variant analysis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) is essential for understanding product heterogeneity and ensuring quality control. However, Deruxtecan (DXd)-based ADCs present a unique analytical challenge due to the intrinsic instability of the payload, where the lactone ring readily undergoes hydrolysis under alkaline conditions, resulting in time-dependent shifts in charge distribution during imaged capillary isoelectric focusing (icIEF). In this study, we describe the development of an onboard-mixing icIEF method designed to minimize pH-induced degradation during sample preparation. By separating ADC samples from carrier ampholytes (CAs) prior to injection and enabling real-time mixing within the instrument, this approach effectively suppresses premature lactone ring opening and stabilizes charge variant profiles. Comparative studies between conventional premixing and onboard-mixing approach demonstrated that the latter significantly enhances reproducibility, particularly for acidic variants that are highly sensitive to structural conversion. Comprehensive method validation confirmed excellent precision, linearity, and sensitivity, with consistent performance across run-to-run and intra-day analyses. The results underscore the importance of controlling microenvironmental pH exposure in the analysis of chemically instable ADCs. The proposed onboard-mixing strategy provides a robust and efficient solution for icIEF-based characterization, reducing analytical artifacts while simplifying method development. This approach is broadly applicable to ADCs and other biotherapeutics containing pH-sensitive functional groups.

Free polyphenols and multi-omics traits underlying antioxidant variation across Paeonia lactiflora leaf cultivars.

Leaves of Paeonia lactiflora are underutilized by-products with potential as natural antioxidant sources. In this study, 18 cultivars were evaluated for phytochemical composition and in vitro antioxidant capacity. Total phenolic content correlated strongly with DPPH and ABTS activities, and the comprehensive antioxidant index identified 'Coral Charm' and 'Hangshao' as representative high- and low-antioxidant cultivars, respectively. Untargeted metabolomics detected 2677 metabolites and identified 908 differential metabolites between the two cultivars. Targeted phenolic profiling quantified 27 compounds, among which 11 differed significantly between the two cultivars. Catechin and epicatechin were enriched in 'Coral Charm', with contents of 6.62 and 0.397 ng/mg, respectively, compared with 0.012 and 0.002 ng/mg in 'Hangshao'. (+)-Dihydroquercetin was also more abundant in 'Coral Charm', while caffeic acid showed an upward trend. Proteomic analysis identified 423 differentially expressed proteins, mainly associated with secondary metabolite biosynthesis, redox homeostasis, and central carbon metabolism. Integrated analysis identified pyruvate metabolism as the only pathway significantly enriched in both metabolomic and proteomic datasets. Molecular docking predicted favorable binding between representative phenolics and selected proteins. These findings link cultivar-dependent antioxidant variation in peony leaves with free-phenolic accumulation and pathway-level metabolic differences, supporting the selection and utilization of antioxidant-rich peony leaf resources.

The relationship between composite dietary antioxidant index and odds of depression: A systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of observational studies.

BACKGROUND: Recently, the association between the composite dietary antioxidant index (CDAI) score and depression has received special attention from researchers. However, this possible association has not been comprehensively examined. Thus, the present study aims to comprehensively assess the relationship between CDAI score and depression odds. METHODS: A thorough literature search was performed using Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science up to November 2025. Observational studies assessing the relationship between CDAI score and depression odds were included. The odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) reported in each study were extracted, and a pooled effect size was calculated using a random-effects model with inverse-variance weighting. RESULTS: Four observational studies were included in the current systematic review and meta-analysis. The pooled effect size indicated that a higher CDAI score was associated with lower odds of depression (OR:0.62; 95%CI: 0.51-0.76, I2 = 48.5%; P-value = 0.121). In an exploratory linear dose-response analysis based on two eligible studies, no significant association was observed between a one-unit increase in CDAI score and the odds of depression (OR = 0.96; 95% CI: 0.91-1.02; I2 = 92.2%; P-value<0.001). Given the limited number of studies and substantial heterogeneity, these findings should be interpreted cautiously. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that higher CDAI scores, reflecting greater adherence to antioxidant-rich dietary patterns, are associated with lower odds of depression.

Multi‑omics approaches to decipher the molecular mechanisms of exercise‑mediated bone protection: From mechanistic insights to personalized exercise prescription (Review).

The global burden of bone metabolic disorders necessitates a shift from generic exercise recommendations toward personalized prescription strategies. Exercise confers skeletal protection through mechanotransduction, yet the underlying molecular networks remain incompletely understood. Multi‑omics technologies, including transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and single‑cell spatial approaches, have revolutionized the capacity to decode exercise‑mediated bone adaptation at the systems level. The present review synthesizes current single‑omics landscapes and integrative multi‑omics analyses that elucidate the core regulatory networks, mechanobiological coupling mechanisms and multiorgan crosstalk that are implicated in the bone response to mechanical loading. Translational applications across clinical scenarios such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and disuse bone loss are evaluated, and the technical, analytical and translational challenges limiting clinical implementation are addressed. Finally, the present review provides a framework for translating multi‑omics molecular signatures into personalized exercise prescriptions for optimized skeletal health.

Association between fruit and vegetable intake and risk of depression: A systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies.

Depression is a leading cause of global disability, and identifying modifiable lifestyle factors is a public health priority. We conducted a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies examining the association between fruit and vegetable intake and incident depression. PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar were searched through November 2025. Data on study characteristics, dietary assessment, outcomes, effect estimates, and covariates were independently extracted by two reviewers. Random-effects models were used to calculate pooled relative risks (RRs), and linear and non-linear dose-response relationships were assessed. Heterogeneity was evaluated using I2, and evidence certainty was rated with GRADE. Thirteen cohorts with 385,449 participants and 26,592 depression cases were included. Highest versus lowest combined fruit and vegetable intake was associated with a 37% lower risk of depression (RR: 0.63; 95% CI: 0.50, 0.80). Each 200 g/day increase corresponded to a 16% risk reduction (RR: 0.84; 95% CI: 0.74-0.94). Separate analyses showed that fruit and vegetable intake reduced depression risk by 16% and 12%, respectively, with a non-linear dose-response for vegetables. These findings indicate that higher consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with lower depression risk, supporting dietary strategies as a potential approach for mental health prevention. However, given the observational nature of the included studies, these results should be interpreted with caution, as residual confounding may partially account for the observed associations. Registration: This study was registered at PROSPERO (CRD420261279998).

A black soybean yoghurt fermented with a reusable probiotic cellulose gel: beneficial effects and metabolic characteristics.

The demand for plant-based yoghurts is continuously increasing. However, achieving stable physicochemical properties and acceptable flavor of the plant-based yoghurts remains challenging. In our previous work, we encapsulated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) LCC-605 biofilm into bacterial cellulose (BC), obtaining a LP605@BC gel. LP605@BC gel exhibited excellent harsh-environment resistance abilities and storage stability, and is very suitable as a starter culture. In this work, we used LP605@BC as a starter culture to prepare the fermented plant-based yoghurt (e.g., black soybean yoghurt, BSY-LP605@BC). After fermentation, the inverted nonflowing yoghurt was formed due to the strong interaction between protein and exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by LCC-605 during fermentation. In addition, the water holding capacity (67.2%) of BSY-LP605@BC was also greatly improved. The viable bacterial counts in BSY-LP605@BC reached 11.2 log CFU/mL after 21 days of storage. BSY-LP605@BC showed increased antioxidant, cholesterol-lowering abilities, and hypoglycemic potential compared with the unfermented black soybean milk. Interestingly, LP605@BC could be reused at least 5 times, demonstrating excellent sustainability. Significant metabolomic differences between BSY-LP605@BC and the black soybean milk were observed via untargeted metabolomic analysis, further proving the beneficial effects of BSY-LP605@BC. Overall, our work developed an effective reusable starter culture for preparing the plant-based yoghurt in a sustainable manner, providing a new design direction and form of starter culture.

Early proteomic and metabolic signatures of liver and eye in OAT-deficient mice.

Ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) deficiency causes hyperornithinemia and gyrate atrophy (GA) of the choroid and retina, a rare inherited retinal degeneration. To understand the early molecular changes that make the eye susceptible to damage, we performed quantitative proteomic and metabolomic profiling of liver, retina, and retinal pigment epithelium and choroid (RPE/Cho) from OAT-deficient (Oatrhg) mice prior to detectable vision impairment. In addition to reduced OAT expression and elevated ornithine, methylation-related metabolites such as N(6)-methyl-lysine were altered in all examined tissues of Oatrhg mice. In the liver, excess ornithine was directed into urea cycle metabolism, together with altered expression of detoxification enzymes and histone H2B proteins. In contrast, the retina showed minimal proteomic changes but pronounced alterations in amino acid pathways that support glutamate homeostasis. The RPE/Cho demonstrated the most extensive proteomic changes, particularly in mitochondrial metabolism, cytoskeleton, and extracellular matrix, along with changes in metabolites involved in lysine metabolism, energy metabolism, and antioxidant capacity. Incubation with 13C lysine demonstrated that lysine was primarily degraded in RPE/Cho but not the retina, and ornithine enhanced lysine degradation in an OAT-dependent manner. Together, these findings highlight common and tissue-specific impacts of OAT on the liver and ocular tissues and provide insight into early molecular changes that contribute to the selective vulnerability of the eye in GA. Proteomics data are available via ProteomeXchange (PXD063614) and metabolomics data via MassIVE repository (MSV000101103).

Transcriptomic changes in the gut mucosa of fasting northern elephant seal pups reveal immune modulation during early microbiome establishment.

Fasting is an integral component of the life-history of many species. Following abrupt weaning, northern elephant seal pups (Mirounga angustirostris) undergo an extended post-weaning fast of approximately 60 days. During this period, enteric bacterial diversity increases, suggesting that host immune regulation may facilitate the establishment of microbial communities. However, the molecular processes occurring within the intestinal mucosa during this transition remain poorly understood. To investigate these mechanisms, we characterized transcriptional changes in the enteric mucosa of male and female northern elephant seal pups sampled at weaning and after one month of fasting. Total RNA isolated from rectal swabs was sequenced and aligned to the Mirounga angustirostris reference genome. Differential gene expression and gene set enrichment analyses were used to identify genes and pathways associated with fasting and sex-specific responses. Fasting was accompanied primarily by transcriptional downregulation, including genes involved in antimicrobial defense, inflammation, protein turnover, and epithelial remodeling. In contrast, several genes associated with B-cell activity and immune recognition were upregulated. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis revealed coordinated activation of immune-regulatory pathways indicating dynamic modulation of intestinal immunity rather than generalized immune suppression. Pronounced sex-specific differences were also observed. Male pups exhibited transcriptional patterns consistent with enhanced immune tolerance, whereas females showed broader immune-pathway activation, including enrichment of pro-inflammatory and stress-response pathways. Several non-coding RNAs also displayed sex-specific changes in expression. Together, these findings suggest that fasting induces transcriptional remodeling of the gut and may contribute to immune regulation during a critical period of microbiome establishment in northern elephant seal pups.

Optimal dose and exercise modality to improve HbA1c in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review with pairwise, network, and dose-response meta-analyses.

We aimed to compare exercise modalities and evaluate dose-response relationships with glycemic control including continuous aerobic exercise (CAE), resistance training (RT), combined exercise (CE), mind-body exercise (MBE), and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Three databases were searched for randomized controlled trials of exercise interventions in older adults with T2DM reporting glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Pairwise, Bayesian network, and dose-response meta-analyses were conducted. Compared with control, HIIT demonstrated the largest estimated reduction (MD = -0.95%; 95% CrI -1.45, -0.49), followed by CE (MD = -0.59%; 95% CrI -0.93, -0.25), CAE (MD = -0.46%; 95% CrI -0.69, -0.24), MBE (MD = -0.42%; 95% CrI -0.76, -0.10), and RT (MD = -0.29%; 95% CrI -0.51, -0.08). Dose-response network meta-analyses suggested a non-linear association between overall exercise dose and HbA1c reduction, with maximal estimated benefits at approximately 704 METs-min/week with the 95% CrI excluding zero between 241 and 920 METs-min/week. HIIT demonstrated the steepest estimated dose-response relationship, but with wider credible intervals. Other exercise modalities showed more gradual dose-response patterns across their estimated effective ranges. Our findings suggest that exercise prescription for older adults with T2DM should be individualized according to exercise modality, dose, and health status.

Impact of kangaroo care on circadian rhythm, growth, physiological stability in premature infants, and cortisol and melatonin levels in maternal breast milk: A randomized controlled trial.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to examine the effects of regular kangaroo care (KC) on sleep-wake cycles, growth, physiological stability, and maternal breast milk cortisol and melatonin levels in premature infants. DESIGN: This study was a parallel group, single-blind, pre-test-post-test, randomised controlled trial (RCT). METHODS: This randomized controlled study was conducted in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Türkiye between September 2024 and September 2025 Thirty-six premature infants were randomized to intervention (n = 28) or control (n = 28). Infants in the intervention group received KC for three consecutive days, twice daily (10:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m.) for 60 min per session. Data were collected using the Infant Information Form, Physiological Parameters Monitoring Chart, and Premature Infant Sleep-Wake Cycles Tracking Chart. Sleep-wake cycles were monitored using a Bispectral Index device. Breast milk cortisol and melatonin levels were measured at baseline and on day three using the competitive ELISA method. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06589349). RESULTS: Regular KC had a statistically significant effect on BIS values, heart rate, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature (p < 0.05). No statistically significant effects were observed on infant body weight or on maternal breast milk cortisol and melatonin levels (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The findings indicate that regular KC is associated with improved regulation of the sleep-wake cycle and enhanced physiological stability in premature infants. No significant changes were observed in maternal breast milk cortisol or melatonin levels following KC.

Enhancement flavor quality in Zhao'an Baxian oolong tea through enhanced turning-over process.

A systematical investigation on the effects of turning-over intensity on the flavor formation of Zhao'an Baxian oolong tea (ZBT) was performed, through a comparative analysis of heavy turning-over (HT) and light turning-over (LT) treatments in this study. The tea samples were subjected to proteomic and metabolomic analyses, combined with quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) and electronic sensory (E-tongue/E-nose) evaluation. The results demonstrate that HT significantly reduced the content of bitter and astringent compounds, such as catechins and flavonol glycosides, while promoting the accumulation of umami-related amino acids. Concurrently, HT enhanced the biosynthesis of key floral and fruity volatiles, such as β-ocimene, geraniol, benzaldehyde, jasmone by activating stress-responsive metabolic pathways. These coordinated biochemical changes, driven by enzyme-catalyzed reactions in response to prolonged mechanical wounding and environmental stress, collectively improved the overall sensory profile of ZBT. These findings provide a mechanistic foundation for improving ZBT production, with clear implications for quality control and flavor-oriented product development.

Prognostic significance of NLRP-3 expression in solid cancers: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: The inflammasome is a critical immunological sensor comprised of NLRP-3, ASC, and CASPASE-1. Mutations in NLRP-3 are prevalent in inflammatory diseases. However, the role of NLRP-3 in cancer is controversial. This study investigates whether NLRP-3 expression is associated with clinical outcomes in patients with solid cancers. METHODS: PubMed (MEDLINE), Embase, Cochrane, and Google Scholar were searched for articles reporting NLRP-3 expression and disease outcome data in cancer patients. RevMan Review Manager was used to calculate pooled hazard ratios and Mantel-Haenszel pooled odds ratios. RNA sequencing datasets from the TCGA Pan-Cancer (PANCAN) were used for external validation. RESULTS: Patients with higher NLRP-3 expression showed a significant association with larger tumor size, advanced tumor grade, TNM stage, and presence of metastasis. High NLRP-3 expression has a significant association with poor OS (HR:2.12, 95% CI = 1.49-3.03), p < 0.0001) and DFS (HR:1.86, 95% CI = 1.30- 2.65, p = 0.0007). Subgroup analysis showed that higher NLRP-3 expression is associated with worse OS in head and neck cancer (HR: 2.77, 95% CI = 1.88-4.09, p < 0.00001), colorectal cancers (HR:2.14, 95% CI= 1.59- 2.87, p < 0.00001), and pancreatic cancer patients (HR: 3.19, 95% CI = 1.73-5.91, p = 0.0002). CONCLUSION: High NLRP-3 expression is associated with advanced disease and poor outcomes in many solid tumours.

Insights into the mechanism of enhanced tetramethylpyrazine production in dehulled adlay fermented by Bacillus subtilis BJ3-2.

Tetramethylpyrazine (TTMP) is a vital bioactive alkaloid and characteristic flavor compound in fermented foods. Our previous study found that fermentation of adlay by Bacillus subtilis BJ3-2 efficiently accumulates TTMP, whereas the underlying high-yield mechanism remains unclear. This study investigated the fermentation characteristics, gene transcription and protein expression of B. subtilis BJ3-2 in dehulled adlay (BDA) and soybean (BSB), respectively, and elucidated the mechanism responsible for high-yield TTMP production. The results showed that glutamate, leucine and phenylalanine were major free amino acids in BDA. The TTMP yield in BDA at 48 h (6.11 mg/g dry weight) was 360-fold higher than that in BSB. Transcriptomic and proteomic analysis demonstrated that compared with the soybean substrate, dehulled adlay substrate significantly up-regulated the expression of alsSD and ilvBH genes and their encoding proteins in B. subtilis BJ3-2, which were involved in C5-branched dibasic acid metabolism, 2-oxocarboxylic acid metabolism, and valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis. Meanwhile, acetoin degradation was inhibited by down-regulating acetoin dehydrogenase complex (acoABCL) in citrate cycle, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and carbon metabolism. Additionally, nitrogen metabolism pathway was transcriptionally enhanced to guarantee sufficient ammonium supply. Notably, protein-protein interaction and molecular docking analyses revealed that acetohydroxyacid synthase (ilvBH) interacted tightly with α-acetolactate decarboxylase (alsD), potentially forming a metabolic channel for acetoin synthesis. In conclusion, the efficient synthesis of TTMP in BDA was primarily attributed to the high synthesis and low degradation of acetoin, and the moderate synthesis of ammonium/ammonia. This study provided a theoretical basis for the targeted and efficient biosynthesis of TTMP.

Natural products alleviate exercise-induced fatigue by modulating gut microbiota: a systematic review.

BACKGROUND: Exercise-induced fatigue critically impairs athletic performance and training quality. The gut microbiota, as a key regulator of the "gut-muscle axis," has emerged as a promising anti-fatigue target. Natural products - owing to their diverse sources, structural complexity, and favorable safety profiles - have attracted growing research interest. However, a systematic synthesis comparing their anti-fatigue effects via gut microbiota modulation across different sources is lacking. SCOPE AND APPROACH: We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and CNKI for original studies that administered natural products and concurrently assessed gut microbiota changes and anti-fatigue outcomes. Twenty-six studies (25 animal experiments and 1 human trial) were included and categorized into seven groups by source and chemical characteristics. A descriptive systematic review was conducted to identify common mechanisms and source-specific differentiations. KEY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS: The enrichment of short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria and the activation of the SCFA-AMPK/PGC-1α axis were shared core events across all product categories. However, source-dependent mechanistic divergences emerged: polysaccharides acted primarily as fermentable substrates with an optimal dose window; polyphenols and saponins exerted dual modulation on both microbiota and host signaling pathways; compound extracts achieved systemic synergy through functional complementation; marine- and animal-derived products exhibited unique targeting profiles and rapid action. Intestinal barrier maintenance and brain-gut axis regulation further extended the anti-fatigue repertoire. Collectively, natural products possess a solid mechanistic basis for alleviating exercise-induced fatigue via gut microbiota remodeling. The differentiated characteristics of these methods in targeting precision and pathway engagement provide a theoretical foundation for designing precision intervention strategies tailored to specific fatigue contexts.

Beyond antigen matching: compatibility intelligence theory for transfusion as an emergent biological system.

BACKGROUND: Despite major advances in serologic testing, extended phenotyping, and blood group genomics, clinically similar transfusion exposures may result in markedly different immune and clinical outcomes. Existing compatibility strategies do not fully explain this biological variability. OBJECTIVES: To examine transfusion compatibility as an emergent donor-recipient biological state and propose a systems-level conceptual framework that integrates established biological determinants into a testable model for future precision transfusion medicine. METHODS: This narrative review critically synthesizes current evidence from blood group genomics, recipient immunobiology, inflammation, disease-specific biology, transfusion medicine, and computational prediction. The proposed framework distinguishes Compatibility Intelligence Theory (CIT) as a biological interpretation from Precision Transfusion Intelligence (PTI) as its potential clinician-supervised translational application. RESULTS: The review argues that transfusion compatibility is shaped by interactions among donor genetics, recipient immune biology, inflammatory physiology, disease context, transfusion history, and longitudinal adaptation rather than by antigen matching alone. CIT provides an organizational framework for integrating these determinants, whereas PTI describes a possible clinician-supervised translation. To address current feasibility, the revised framework separates variables into routinely measurable, contextually available but incompletely standardized, and research-stage domains, and proposes a staged strategy for deriving rather than assuming their quantitative weights. Any clinical implementation would require comparative validation against current serologic, phenotypic, and genotype-based practice. CONCLUSIONS: Compatibility Intelligence Theory offers a testable systems-level framework for understanding transfusion compatibility without replacing established transfusion practices. The framework is not presented as a ready-to-use score: currently measurable variables can be organized for structured risk review, whereas inflammatory, immunogenetic, and multi-omic inputs require prospective standardization and validation. If future studies demonstrate incremental predictive and patient-centered benefit, CIT-informed PTI could support an adaptive, evidence-based extension of current precision transfusion practice.

Insights from changes in NDEV biomarkers of metabolism: effects of PPARγ and GLP1 receptor agonists on brain metabolism.

BACKGROUND: Insulin resistance (IR) is implicated in central nervous system disorders, including depression and Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS: We analyzed biological samples from two cohorts of clinical trial participants: (1) participants with unremitted depression after six months of treatment as usual who received pioglitazone (PPARγ agonist, N = 12) or placebo and (2) middle-aged participants at genetic risk for AD who received liraglutide (glucagon-like peptide 1 [GLP1] receptor agonist, N = 15) or placebo. These cohorts, which previously showed treatment-related improvements in peripheral IR, were used to assess the effects of pioglitazone and liraglutide on CNS insulin signaling using neuron-derived extracellular vesicles (NDEVs) as biomarkers. We utilized biological samples to measure biomarkers of IR in NDEVs. Eleven Akt-mTOR pathway proteins were measured before and after 12 weeks of treatment in both groups. RESULTS: Participants who received pioglitazone experienced broader changes, with significant increases in GSK3β (Ser9), mTOR (Ser2448), and RPS6 (Ser235/Ser236; all P ≤ .02) compared with placebo, and 77% of participants showed mTOR (Ser2448) response. Participants who received liraglutide demonstrated significantly increased NDEV-associated phosphorylated Akt (Ser473) and mTOR (Ser2448; P = .04 and P = .025, respectively) compared with placebo, with 40% and 30% of participants in the liraglutide group showing biomarker response in both Akt (Ser473) and mTOR (Ser2448), respectively. These effects appeared relatively independent from changes in fasting plasma insulin and glucose concentration at 120-minutes during the oral glucose tolerance test. DISCUSSION: Our findings demonstrate CNS-specific biomarker responses to both PPARγ agonists and GLP1 receptor agonists.

Exploring the mechanism of aroma production in fermented cherry juice by L. brevis LD1.0600 using flavomics and whole genome analysis.

This study focused on L.brevis LD1.0600 with excellent fermentation traits: it analyzed genome-wide key regulatory genes for micro-metabolites, combined with fermented cherry juice flavor metabolomics data, and used machine learning to explore correlations between gene regulation, metabolite production, and flavor formation. The SVM model screened and verified fermented cherry juice VOCs; through OAV and flavor wheel analysis, LD1.0600 emerged as the top-performing strain, with a sweet, fruity dominant aroma. Key aroma-active components (OAV > 100) included 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, benzaldehyde, 2-methyl-butanoic acid and hexanoic acid, and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol and hexanoic acid elevated by LD1.0600-regulated genes (Chrom1-001884, Chrom1-000925, fabF and Chrom1-000199). At the same time, through research, a "strain screening-SVM screening of DVCs-OAV screening of key aroma components-whole genome sequencing of flavor regulatory genes" system was established. This system can not only be applied to the screen fermentation strains, but also can be extended to the application of other fermentation products.
