Tryptophan residue enhances in vitro walnut protein-derived peptides exerting xanthine oxidase inhibition and antioxidant activities

The modulation of xanthine oxidase (XO) activity is critical to the treatment of hyperuricemia and oxidative stress-related disease.Although the walnut protein hydrolysates had been reported to inhibit XO, their interaction mechanism remained unclear.Herein, the walnut protein-derived peptides were used to evaluate their in vitro XO-inhibitory acti

Taxonomy of the ant genus Nesomyrmex Wheeler (Formicidae, Myrmicinae) in the Afrotropical region, with a review of current species groups and description of a new species of the N. angulatus group from Mozambique

This study reviews the taxonomy of the ant genus Nesomyrmex Wheeler, 1910 in the Afrotropical region.Previous revisionary studies are discussed and four species groups are proposed on the basis of external morphology.The N.angulatus group contains seven species that are widely distributed throughout the whole Afrotropical region, with one species a
