Abstract

The global rise in type-2 diabetes has increased interest in functional foods that can help prevent or manage the disease. Red Palm Olein Oil (RPOO), rich in antioxidants such as tocotrienols, tocopherols, and β-carotene, has shown promise in reducing oxidative stress and improving insulin sensitivity. This study aimed to develop a low-calorie, functional instant noodle using RPOO to provide anti-diabetic benefits while retaining consumer appeal. Konjac flour, a low-calorie ingredient, was combined with RPOO to create a nutritious noodle product. The production of RPOO involved fractionating crude palm oil (CPO) to yield a product rich in antioxidants, which were measured for their antioxidant activity. The noodles were formulated by replacing conventional oils with RPOO-based seasoning, and their physical, chemical, and sensory properties were analyzed. Results showed that the RPOO-substituted noodles had significantly higher vitamin E content, contributing to antioxidant effects. Sensory evaluation indicated that the 75:25 RPOO-seasoning oil ratio received the highest acceptance regarding color, aroma, and taste. Proximate analysis revealed that the noodles were low in calories (73.81 kcal per 100g), making them suitable for health-conscious consumers. The findings suggest that RPOO-enhanced instant noodles could serve as a functional food for diabetes-friendly formulation, providing a novel approach to integrating health benefits into widely consumed food products.

Abstract

While post-harvest fermentation is known to influence coffee quality, the specific impact of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) starter cultures on modulating the volatile aroma precursor diversity in unroasted green coffee beans remains underexplored. This knowledge gap limits the industry's ability to move beyond spontaneous fermentation to predictably target specific aroma profiles. This study investigated the species- and dose-dependent effects of locally cultured Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides and Pediococcus pentosaceus (1.5–6% w/v inoculum) on the green bean's chemical profile. The unroasted beans were analyzed using HS-SPME-GC–MS for volatile aroma precursors alongside caffeine and proximate composition. The chemical profile diverged significantly following LAB inoculation, with volatile diversity increasing by 32–45% relative to the control. The two species demonstrated divergent impacts: L. pseudomesenteroides (3–4.5% inoculum) drove significant proteolysis (protein content decreased from a mean of 11.8% to 8.5%) and was associated with a ~47% increase in measured caffeine, enriching precursors for floral (2-phenethyl acetate) and buttery (2,3-pentanedione) notes. Conversely, P. pentosaceus  produced nutty precursors (e.g., methylpyrazine) while preserving the bean's protein and fat matrix. These findings provide a clear biochemical roadmap for the coffee industry. They demonstrate that targeted LAB inoculation is a viable strategy to predictably engineer green bean chemistry, allowing producers to deterministically steer the final cup profile toward either complex floral notes or classic, matrix-preserved nutty characteristics.

Abstract

Bioactive peptides from marine organisms, particularly sea cucumbers, represent a promising source of functional compounds with potential health benefits. This study investigated the bioactivities of hydrolysates prepared from several sea cucumber species using five proteolytic enzymes: Alcalase, bromelain, trypsin, papain, and pepsin. The hydrolysates were analyzed for angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity, antioxidant capacity, and molecular weight distribution. Among the samples, 24-h Alcalase hydrolysates of red giant and Kinko sea cucumbers exhibited the highest combined ACE and DPP-IV inhibitory activities. Antioxidant analysis revealed that low DPPH radical scavenging activity showed relatively high oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values, indicating different mechanisms of antioxidant action. Ethanol fractionation effectively enhanced ACE and DPP-IV inhibition as well as antioxidant activity. Amino acid composition analysis indicated proteins consistent with type I collagen as the primary source. Enzyme kinetics showed competitive inhibition for ACE and mixed-type inhibition for DPP-IV. Simulated gastrointestinal digestion caused only minor reductions in activity, suggesting that sea cucumber-derived peptides retain their bioactivity under physiological conditions. These findings highlight the potential of sea cucumber hydrolysates as nutraceutical ingredients.

Abstract

This study investigates the pharmacological potential of Cassia fistula (Tilai), a plant traditionally used by Indonesian tribes as both medicine and food. The ethnobotanical significance of this species has inspired scientific exploration of its bioactive compounds. The ethanol extract of Cassia fistula stem bark demonstrated strong antioxidant activity, with an IC50 of 7.512 μg/mL, comparable to Vitamin C's IC50 of 4.716 μg/mL, indicating effective free radical scavenging. Additionally, the extract exhibited notable cytotoxicity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells, with an IC50 of 51.26 μg/mL. UHPLC-HRMS analysis revealed nine bioactive compounds, mainly flavonoids, phenolics, and quinones, which may contribute to its biological activities. These findings support the hypothesis that Cassia fistula stem bark contains potent antioxidant and anticancer constituents, highlighting its potential as a natural source for developing therapeutic agents. This research provides valuable insights into the phytochemical profile of Cassia fistula and its cytotoxic effects, encouraging further studies to explore its mechanisms and applications in cancer treatment.

Abstract

Coffee consumption has been associated with metabolic health and obesity risk, potentially through bioactive compounds that influence energy metabolism. Genetic variation may partly explain interindividual differences in these effects, yet the population-specific relevance of such variants remains unclear. However, the population-specific relevance of these genetic variants remains insufficiently explored. OBJECTIVES: This systematic review synthesizes genetic variants associated with coffee consumption and obesity susceptibility across ethnically diverse populations and validates their relevance in global populations using public genomic databases. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar to identify genome-wide association studies and candidate gene studies examining genetic variants related to coffee consumption, caffeine metabolism, and obesity-related traits. Identified variants were cross-referenced with dbSNP and the GWAS Catalog to assess allele frequency distributions and genomic support. Study quality was evaluated using the National Institutes of Health assessment tools for observational studies. RESULTS: The review identified genetic variants involved in caffeine metabolism (POR, ALDH2, GCKR), neuroregulation and appetite control (BDNF), taste perception (TAS2R38, CA6), adipokine regulation (KNG1), dietary fat response (APOA2), and obesity susceptibility (MC4R, ARL15).   Public genomic database analyses suggest that several variants are consistently observed across global populations, supporting their potential generalizability. CONCLUSION: This review highlights the broad population-genetic predispositions underlying the relationship between coffee consumption and obesity risk and supports the need for future research that integrates multi-omics approaches with in vivo and in vitro models to elucidate the biological mechanisms of coffee-related genetic variation.
