Several herbivorous insects consume certain metabolites from plants for other purposes than nutrition, such as defence. Adults of the turnip sawfly, Athalia rosae take up specific terpenoids, called clerodanoids, from Ajuga reptans. These metabolites are slightly modified by the...
INTRODUCTION: Myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) is the most common cardiac condition in adult dogs. The disease progresses over several years and affected dogs may develop congestive heart failure (HF). Research has shown that myocardial metabolism is altered in cardiac dise...
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...
