The Main Anthocyanin Monomer from Lycium ruthenicum Murray Fruit Mediates Obesity via Modulating the Gut Microbiota and Improving the Intestinal Barrier

Peiyun Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that P3G has antiobesity and remodeling effects on gut microbiota by changing its composition in a high-fat diet-induced obese mouse model. Moreover, transferring the P3G-regulated gut microbiota to recipient mice provides comparable protection against obesity. This highlights the potential of P3G as a promising option for obesity prevention.

Flavonoids as antiobesity agents: A review

Ana T. Rufino et al.

Summary: Obesity is a global health issue with increasing prevalence leading to a rise in comorbidities and significant health and socioeconomic burdens. Pharmacotherapy for obesity is gaining attention as an adjunctive treatment, but current available approaches have limitations due to adverse effects or low efficacy. Natural products, particularly flavonoids, show promise in modulating obesity through various mechanisms such as reducing food intake, increasing energy expenditure, and modulating lipid metabolism.

Molecular interaction of fluorescent carbon dots from mature vinegar with human hemoglobin: Insights from spectroscopy, thermodynamics and AFM

Lin Cao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the interaction between vinegar carbon dots (VCDs) and human hemoglobin (HHb), revealing that VCDs could quench the fluorescence of HHb and the binding process was spontaneous. Furthermore, the decrease in esterase activity of HHb after VCDs treatment confirmed the impact of VCDs on HHb. The results provided detailed information about the interaction between VCDs and HHb.

Physicochemical stability-increasing effects of anthocyanin via a co-assembly approach with an amphiphilic peptide

Liang Yao et al.

Summary: The study utilized an amphiphilic peptide with tryptophan amino acid to co-assemble with anthocyanin, resulting in nanocomposites with enhanced stability and antioxidant activity. The interaction between peptide and anthocyanin was characterized using spectroscopy and fluorescence methods, demonstrating the potential for expanding the application of anthocyanin through this approach.
