Synergistic Synbiotic-Containing <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> and Fructo-Oligosaccharide Alleviate the Allergenicity of Mice Induced by Soy Protein by Jing Bai, Qian Zeng, Wen Den, Liheng Huang, Zhihua Wu, Xin Li, Ping Tong, Hongbing Chen, Anshu Yang

“…This study assesses the effect of <i>Lactiplantibacillus plantarum</i> synergistic fructo-oligosaccharide (Lp–FOS) intervention using an allergic mouse model induced by soy protein. The results showed that Lp synergistic FOS significantly decreased clinical allergy scores, inhibited specific antibodies (IgE, IgG, and IgG1), IL-4, IL-6, and IL-17A levels, and increased IFN-γ and IL-10 levels. …”

Trypanosoma cruzi SSP4 Amastigote Protein Induces Expression of Immunoregulatory and Immunosuppressive Molecules in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells by Yadira Morán-Utrera, Aracely López-Monteon, José Luis Rosales-Encina, Enrique Méndez-Bolaina, Angel Ramos-Ligonio

“…Parasite molecules that regulate the host immune response during Chagas’ disease have not been fully identified, particularly proteins of the amastigote stage. In this work, we evaluated the role of the GPI anchored SSP4 protein of T. cruzi as an immunomodulatory molecule in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). rMBP::SSP4 protein was able to stimulate nitric oxide (NO) production. …”

A novel protein encoded by porcine circANKRD17 activates the PPAR pathway to regulate intramuscular fat metabolism by Xiao He, Fang Xie, Ying Nie, Xuefeng Wang, Junyi Luo, Ting Chen, Qianyun Xi, Yongliang Zhang, Jiajie Sun

“…In addition, we discovered that circANKRD17 has an open reading frame and can be translated into a novel 571-amino-acid protein that promotes lipid metabolism. Conclusions Our research provides new insights into the role of protein-coding circANKRD17, especially concerning the metabolic characteristics of pig breeds with higher intramuscular fat content.…”
