Pickled olives neutralize vicine and convicine glycosides in and protect from favism Khaled M. M. Koriem, Mahmoud S.S. Arbid Nutrition & Food Science, Vol. ahead-of-print, No. ahead-of-print, pp.- This paper aims to evaluate hematological parameters, blood glutathione (GSH), serum glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6-PD) and liver function in favism animals' models after oral intake with a mixture of pickled olives and Vicia faba (V. faba) seeds. Favism is a life-threatening hemolytic crisis. It results from the ingestion of V. faba by the individuals. The hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (...

Aspirin Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency, Safe or Not?
AbstractGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzyme defect, which may present as acute hemolysis, neonatal jaundice, or chronic hemolysis. Ingestion of fava beans, as well as infection and certain drugs, are the most typical causes of acute hemolysis in people with G6PD deficiency. Aspirin, the cornerstone in current therapies for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), is occasionally reported to induce acute hemolysis in G6PD-deficient individuals. G6PD deficiency is typically asymptomatic and many CVD patients with this enzyme defect start to take long-term aspirin therapy...

Effects of marine biofertilisation on Celtic bean carbon, nitrogen and sulphur isotopes: implications for reconstructing past diet and farming practices.
CONCLUSIONS: Humans and animals consuming plants grown with marine biofertilisers will incorporate a marine signature. Isotopic enrichment in nitrogen and sulphur using marine resources has significant implications when reconstructing diets and farming practices in archaeological populations.

IJERPH, Vol. 17, Pages 6087: Immobilization of Cr(VI) in Soil Using a Montmorillonite-Supported Carboxymethyl Cellulose-Stabilized Iron Sulfide Composite: Effectiveness and Biotoxicity Assessment
an Ma Dexun Zou A novel composite of montmorillonite-supported carboxymethyl cellulose-stabilized nanoscale iron sulfide (CMC@MMT-FeS), prepared using the co-precipitation method, was applied to remediate hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI))-contaminated soil. Cr(VI)-removal capacity increased with increasing FeS-particle loading. We tested the efficacy of CMC@MMT-FeS at three concentrations of FeS: 0.2, 0.5, and 1 mmol/g, hereafter referred to as 0.2 CMC@MMT-FeS, 0.5 CMC@MMT-FeS, and 1.0 CMC@MMT-FeS, respectively. The soil Cr(VI) concentration decreased by 90.7% (from an initial concentration of 424.6 mg/kg to 39.4 mg/kg) a...

Clinical Manifestations and Therapeutic Findings of the Children with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency Presenting Favism.
CONCLUSION: In this study, hydration therapy was performed in most of the children presenting favism. Also, the incorrect calculation of the amount of blood needed for transfusion has increased the frequency of blood transfusions and prolonged hospitalization time.

Genotoxicity and phytotoxicity comparison of cigarette butt with cigarette ash.
Abstract The damage potential of cigarette butt and cigarette ash was determined and compared using genotoxicity and phytotoxicity assessments. The concentrations of five heavy metals, As, Cr, Cd, Pb, and Ni, were determined in both cigarette butt and ash leachates to find out if the results of heavy metals are in parallel with toxicity findings. Cigarette ashes and cigarette butts were soaked in distilled water for 7 days. Six leachate butt concentrations, including 200, 100, 50, 25, 12.5, and 6.25 piece/L, were examined. HUVEC cells (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) were exposed to these dilution...

Mitigating effects of Bean yellow mosaic virus infection in faba bean using new carboxymethyl chitosan-titania nanobiocomposites.
Abstract Bean yellow mosaic virus (BYMV) is the main cause of the mosaic and malformation of many plants, worldwide. Thus, the triggering of plant systemic resistance against BYMV is of great interest. In this endeavor, we aimed to explore the capacity of new carboxymethyl chitosan-titania nanobiocomposites (NBCs, NBC1,2) to trigger faba bean plants resistance against BYMV. Effects of NBCs on faba bean (Vicia faba L.) disease severity (DS), growth parameters, and antioxidant defense system activity were investigated under BYMV stress. Noticeably that the DS in NBCs-treated faba bean was significantly reduc...

Genes, Vol. 11, Pages 614: Identification of Regulatory SNPs Associated with Vicine and Convicine Content of Vicia faba Based on Genotyping by Sequencing Data Using Deep Learning
In this study, we aim to computationally identify regulatory SNPs (rSNPs), i.e., SNPs in promoter regions of genes that are deemed to govern the V+C content of Vicia faba. For this purpose we first trained a deep learning model with the gene annotations of seven related species of the Leguminosae family. Applying our model, we predicted putative promoters in a partial genome of Vicia faba that we assembled from genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) data. Exploiting the synteny between Medicago truncatula and Vicia faba, we identified two rSNPs which are statistically significantly associated with V+C content. In particular, the a...
