Riboflavin-loaded soy protein isolate cold gel treated with combination of high intensity ultrasound and high hydrostatic pressure: Gel structure, physicochemical properties and gastrointestinal digestion fate
Ultrason Sonochem. 2024 Feb 20;104:106819. doi: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2024.106819. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTransglutaminase (TGase) was added to soy protein isolate (SPI) dispersion after the combination treatment of high intensity ultrasound (HIU) and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) to catalyze the formation of cold gel, which was used to encapsulate riboflavin. The structure, physicochemical properties and in vitro digestion characteristics of riboflavin-loaded SPI cold gel were investigated. HIU-HHP combined treatment enhanced the strength, water retention, elastic property, thermal stability and protein denaturation...

Effect of riboflavin on redox balance, osmolyte accumulation, methylglyoxal generation and nutrient acquisition in indian squash (Praecitrullus fistulosus L.) under chromium toxicity
The objective of this work was to clarify the underlying mechanisms by which riboflavin alleviates Cr stress in Praecitrullus fistulosus L. Further, the role of riboflavin in growth, ions homeostasis, methylglyoxal detoxification, and antioxidant defense mechanism are not well documented in plants under Cr toxicity. We found greater biomass and minimal production of ROS in plants pretreated with riboflavin under Cr stress. Results manifested a clear abridge in growth, chlorophyll content, and nutrient uptake in Indian squash plants exposed to Cr stress. Findings displayed that Cr stress visibly enhanced oxidative injury re...

Wireless and battery-free wearable biosensing of riboflavin in sweat for precision nutrition
Biosens Bioelectron. 2024 Feb 17;251:116136. doi: 10.1016/j.bios.2024.116136. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNutrition assessment is crucial for dietary guidance and prevention of malnutrition. Recent endeavors in wearable biochemical sensors have enabled real-time, in situ analysis of nutrients in sweat. However, the monitoring of riboflavin, an indispensable vitamin B involved in energy metabolism, remains challenging due to its trace level and variations in the sweat matrix. Herein, we report a wireless, battery-free, and flexible wearable biosensing system for the in situ monitoring of sweat riboflavin. Highly sensitive...

Temporal Changes in Micronutrient Intake Among U.S. Adults, NHANES 2003 through 2018: A Cross-Sectional Study
CONCLUSIONS: Although some progress has been made, nutrient intake and percentage of the population meeting nutritional recommendations among U.S. adults has changed little over the 15 years studied.PMID:38373695 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2024.02.007 (Source: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)

Functions of mucosal associated invariant T cells in eye diseases
Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are a unique subset of T cells that recognizes metabolites derived from the vitamin B2 biosynthetic pathway. Since the identification of cognate antigens for MAIT cells, knowledge of the functions of MAIT cells in cancer, autoimmunity, and infectious diseases has been rapidly expanding. Recently, MAIT cells have been found to contribute to visual protection against autoimmunity in the eye. The protective functions of MAIT cells are induced by T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated activation. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Thus, this mini-review aims to discuss our fi...
