BACKGROUND: Gut microbiota profiles are closely related to cardiovascular diseases through mechanisms that include the reported deleterious effects of metabolites, such as trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), which have been studied as diagnostic and therapeutic targets. Moderate red ...

Black aspergilli exhibit remarkable bioconversion potential by transforming plant matrices into bioactive compounds, although their metabolic processes remain underexplored. This study investigated the biotransformation of metabolites during the solid-state cultivation of guabiju (Myrcianthes...
