1. Unveiling the Bacterial Sesquiterpenome of Streptomyces sp. CBMAI 2042 Discloses Cyclases with Versatile Performances
Terpenes are the most abundant class of natural product that exist in nature. They possess a myriad of industrial applications including pharmaceutical, perfumery and flavors, bulk chemicals, and fuel. Intriguingly, until today, the vast majority of characterized terpenoids have been isolated from plants and fungi, and only in recent years bacteria were foun

2. Effects of Citrus Sudden Death Disease on Fatty Acid Profile of Orange Tree Bark
Citrus sudden death (CSD) is a disease that has affected millions of orange trees in Brazil, leading to economic losses in the order of billions of US dollars. This article examines the effects of CSD on the fatty acid composition of triacylglycerides (TAG) extracted from rootstock and scion bark. The fatty acid profile determined by gas chromatography showe

4. Classic and current concepts in adrenal steroidogenesis: a reappraisal
ABSTRACT Adrenal steroid biosynthesis and its related pathology are constant evolving disciplines. In this paper, we review classic and current concepts of adrenal steroidogenesis, plus control mechanisms of steroid pathways, distribution of unique enzymes and cofactors, and major steroid families. We highlight the presence of a “mineralocorticoid (MC) pat

5. Monoglyceride biosynthesis from coconut milk with lypase enzyme of sesame seed sprouts as biocatalyst
Abstract Monoglycerides are oleochemical compounds that were widely used as emulsifying agents for foods, anti-bacterial and anti-viruses (monolaurin, monocaprin). The objective of this research was to study the optimal reaction conditions in monoglyceride production from coconut milk. To achieve that purpose, the research was carried out with two factors, n

6. Mapping Biochemical Pathways in Maytenus ilicifolia (Celastraceae) through Integrated Proteomics and Histochemistry
Maytenus ilicifolia (Celastraceae) is a medicinal plant that is native to southern Brazil and is popularly known as “espinheira-santa”. From a biosynthesis perspective, this species accumulates quinonemethide triterpenes and sesquiterpene pyridine alkaloids as major secondary metabolites that exhibit interesting biological properties, with antitumoral an

7. Obesity care: more urgent than ever
ABSTRACT Deleterious effects of free fatty acids, FFAs, on insulin sensitivity are observed in vivo studies in humans. Mechanisms include impaired insulin signaling, oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction, but the effects on insulin secretion are less well known. Our aim was to review the relationship of increased FFAs with insulin res

8. Effect of free fatty acids on insulin secretion, insulin sensitivity and incretin effect – a narrative review
ABSTRACT Deleterious effects of free fatty acids, FFAs, on insulin sensitivity are observed in vivo studies in humans. Mechanisms include impaired insulin signaling, oxidative stress, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction, but the effects on insulin secretion are less well known.

9. What is the best Cardiovascular Risk Score for the Brazilian Population?
Malaria, a parasitic infection caused by Plasmodium falciparum, is a serious global public health problem. The enzyme enoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) reductase present in a limiting step in the biosynthesis of fatty acids type II was used to search for novel molecules with potential inhibitor by virtual screening techniques. A flavonoid library obtained in

ABSTRACT In 2019, the atmospheric CO2 concentration exceeded the 415 ppm milestone for the first time in the human history. According to projections of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), CO2 levels will continue to rise in the future, potentially affecting all living organisms. Plants with C3 metabolism may benefit from rising CO2 levels b
