Abstract
The development of an analytical method for assessing pungency intensity and determining geographical origins is crucial for evaluating the quality of visually similar Zanthoxylum bungeanum pericarp (PZB). This study analyzed 210 PZB samples from 14 origins across China, focusing on origin adulteration identification and pungency intensity using a combination of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and machine learning algorithms. The artificial neural network (ANN) and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithms provided the highest accuracy in origin identification (100 %) and adulteration detection (97.9 %) respectively. Moreover, the ANN excelled in predicting pungency intensity (R2 = 0.918). Assessment via feature importance analysis of DPV features revealed that segments of polyphenols (0.34-0.52 V and 1.0-1.2 V) and alkylamides (1.0-1.2 V) contributed significantly to the PZB pungency intensity. These findings highlight the potential of DPV as a reliable method for assessing the quality of PZB, and offer a promising solution for ensuring the geographical authenticity of this important crop.

Abstract
Introduction Tilapia produces a large number of by-products during processing, which contain potentially flavorful peptides. Methods The application of PyRx software enabled batch molecular docking andscreening of 16 potential salty peptides from 189 peptides identified in the enzymaticdigestion of tilapia by-products. Results According to sensory analysis, all 16 peptides werepredominantly salty with a threshold of 0.256 - 0.379 mmol/L with some sournessand astringency, among which HLDDALR had the highest salty intensity, followedby VIEPLDIGDDKVR, FPGIPDHL, and DFKSPDDPSRH. I addition, moleculardocking results showed these four core peptides with high salt intensity bound to thesalt receptor TRPV1 mainly via van der Waals interactions, hydrogen bonds, andhydrophobic forces; Arg491, Tyr487, VAL441, and Asp708 were the key sites for thebinding of salty peptides to TRPV1. Therefore, the application of batch moleculardocking using PyRx is effective and economical for the virtual screening of saltypeptides.

Comprehensive metabolite and biological profile of "Sulmona Red Garlic" ecotype's aerial bulbils. Food Res Int 2024; 175:113654.

Abstract
"Sulmona Red Garlic" is a well-known Italian traditional product. Bulbs, used for culinary purposes, have been largely investigated for their medicinal properties whereas aerial bulbils are usually removed as waste material. Here, for the first time, chemical composition and biological properties of the hydroalcoholic extract from aerial bulbils were investigated. Complementary information on metabolite composition were obtained using both NMR based untargeted and HPLC-DAD targeted methodologies. The NMR analysis revealed the presence of sugars, organic acids, amino acids, organosulphur compounds (methiin, alliin, allicin and cycloalliin), and other secondary metabolites. In particular, methiin and alliin were identified for the first time in the NMR spectra of aerial bulbil garlic extracts. Polyphenol content was determined by HPLC-DAD analysis: catechin, chlorogenic acid, and gallic acid turned out to be the most abundant phenolics. Hydroalcoholic extract blocked cell proliferation of colon cancer cell line HCT116 with an IC50 of 352.07 µg/mL, while it was non-toxic to myoblast cell line C2C12. In addition, it caused seedling germination reduction of two edible and herbaceous dicotyledon species, namely Cichorium intybus and C. endivia. Moreover, the same extract reduced the gene expression of TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor), HIF1-α (hypoxia-inducible factor), VEGFA (vascular endothelial growth factor), and transient receptor potential (TRP) M8 (TRPM8) indicating the ability to contrast cancer development through the angiogenic pathway. Final, in silico experiments were also carried out supporting the biological effects of organosulphur compounds, particularly alliin, which may directly interact with TRPM8. The results here reported suggest the potential use of garlic aerial bulbils often considered a waste product as a source in phytotherapeutic remedies.

Abstract
Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease characterized by progressive scar formation and the ultimate manifestation of numerous lung diseases. It is known as "cancer that is not cancer" and has attracted widespread attention. However, its formation process is very complex, and the mechanism of occurrence has not been fully elucidated. Current research has found that TRPA1 may be a promising target in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis. The TRPA1 channel was first successfully isolated in human lung fibroblasts, and it was found to have a relatively concentrated distribution in the lungs and respiratory tract. It is also involved in various acute and chronic inflammatory processes of lung diseases and may even play a core role in the progression and/or prevention of pulmonary fibrosis. Natural ligands targeting TRPA1 could offer a promising alternative treatment for pulmonary diseases. Therefore, this review delves into the current understanding of pulmonary fibrogenesis, analyzes TRPA1 biological properties and regulation of lung disease with a focus on pulmonary fibrosis, summarizes the TRPA1 molecular structure and its biological function, and summarizes TRPA1 natural ligand sources, anti-pulmonary fibrosis activity and potential mechanisms. The aim is to decipher the exact role of TRPA1 channels in the pathophysiology of pulmonary fibrosis and to consider their potential in the development of new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) has been identified as a suitable candidate for a spicy taste (Zanthoxylum plant) sensor. In this study, we investigated the response of TRPV1 expressed on human HepG2 cell membranes following stimulation with Hydroxy-α-sanshool. A three-dimensional (3D) cell-based electrochemical sensor was fabricated by layering cells expressing hTRPV1. l-cysteine/AuNFs electrodes were functionalized on indium tin oxide-coated glass (ITO) to enhance the sensor's selectivity and sensitivity. HepG2 cells were encapsulated in sodium alginate/gelatin hydrogel to create a 3D cell cultivation system, which was immobilized on the l-cysteine/AuNFs/ITO to serve as biorecognition elements. Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), the developed biosensor was utilized to detect Hydroxy-α-sanshool, a representative substance in Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim. The result obtained from DPV was linear with Hydroxy-α-sanshool concentrations ranging from 0 to 70 μmol/L, with a detection limit of 2.23 μmol/L. This biosensor provides a sensitive and novel macroscopic approach for TRPV1 detection.

Abstract
With higher standards in terms of diet and leisure enjoyment, spices and essential oils of aromatic plants (APEOs) are no longer confined to the food industry. The essential oils (EOs) produced from them are the active ingredients that contribute to different flavors. The multiple odor sensory properties and their taste characteristics of APEOs are responsible for their widespread use. The research on the flavor of APEOs is an evolving process attracting the attention among scientists in the past decades. For APEOs, which are used for a long time in the catering and leisure industries, it is necessary to analyze the components associated with the aromas and the tastes. It is important to identify the volatile components and assure quality of APEOs in order to expand their application. It is worth celebrating the different means by which the loss of flavor of APEOs can be retarded in practice. Unfortunately, relatively little research has been done on the structure and flavor mechanisms of APEOs. This also points the way to future research on APEOs.Therefore, this paper reviews the principles of flavor, identification of components and sensory pathways in humans for APEOs. Moreover, the article outlines the means of increasing the efficiency of using of APEOs. Finally, with respect to the sensory applications of APEOs, the review focuses on the practical application of APEOs in food sector and in aromatherapy.

Abstract
Diseases such as cancer, neurological pathologies and chronic pain represent currently unmet needs. The existing pharmacotherapeutic options available for treating these conditions are limited by lack of efficiency and/or side effects. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 ion channel emerged as an attractive therapeutic target for developing new analgesic, anti-cancer and antiepileptic agents. Furthermore, various natural ingredients were shown to have affinity for this receptor. The aim of this narrative review was to summarize the diverse natural scaffolds of TRPV1 modulators based on their agonistic/antagonistic properties and to analyze the structure-activity relationships between the ligands and molecular targets based on the results of the existing molecular docking, mutagenesis and in vitro studies. We present here an exhaustive collection of TRPV1 modulators grouped by relevant chemical features: vanilloids, guaiacols, phenols, alkylbenzenes, monoterpenes, sesquiterpenoids, alkaloids, etc. The information herein is useful for understanding the key structural elements mediating the interaction with TRPV1 and how their structural variation impacts the interaction between the ligand and receptor. We hope this data will contribute to the design of novel effective and safe TRPV1 modulators, to help overcome the lack of effective therapeutic agents against pathologies with high morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Early diagnosis of breast cancer plays an important role in improving survival rate. Physiological changes of breast tissue can be observed and measured through medical electrical impedance, and the results can be used as a preliminary diagnosis by doctors before treatment. In this paper, quantum genetic algorithm (QGA) and support vector machine (SVM) were combined to classify breast tissues to help clinicians in diagnosis. The algorithm uses QGA to optimize the parameters of SVM and improve the classification performance of SVM. In this experiment, the electrical impedance data measured from breast tissue provided by UCI [58] was used as the data set. Objectively speaking, the data volume of the data set is small and the representativeness is not strong enough. However, the experimental results show that QGA-SVM shows better classification performance, and it is better than SVM.

Abstract
The biomimetic olfactory and gustatory biosensing devices have broad applications in many fields, such as industry, security, and biomedicine. The development of these biosensors was inspired by the organization of biological olfactory and gustatory systems. In this review, we summarized the most recent advances in the development of detection strategies for chemical sensing based on olfactory and gustatory biomimetic biosensors. First, sensing mechanisms and principles of olfaction and gustation are briefly introduced. Then, different biomimetic sensing detection strategies are outlined based on different sensing devices functionalized with various molecular and cellular components originating from natural olfactory and gustatory systems. Thereafter, various biomimetic olfactory and gustatory biosensors are introduced in detail by classifying and summarizing the detection strategies based on different sensing devices. Finally, the future directions and challenges of biomimetic biosensing development are proposed and discussed.

Abstract
Biosensors are powerful analytical tools used to identify and detect target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors, which combine biosensing with electrochemical analysis techniques, are efficient analytical instruments that translate concentration signals into electrical signals, enabling the quantitative and qualitative analysis of target molecules. Electrochemical biosensors have been widely used in various fields of detection and analysis due to their high sensitivity, superior selectivity, quick reaction time, and inexpensive cost. However, the signal changes caused by interactions between a biological probe and a target molecule are very weak and difficult to capture directly by using detection instruments. Therefore, various signal amplification strategies have been proposed and developed to increase the accuracy and sensitivity of detection systems. This review serves as a reference for biosensor and detector research, as it introduces the research progress of electrochemical signal amplification strategies in olfactory and taste evaluation. It also discusses the latest signal amplification strategies currently being employed in electrochemical biosensors for nanomaterial development, enzyme labeling, and nucleic acid amplification techniques, and highlights the most recent work in using cell tissues as biosensitive elements.

Abstract
Taste signals are uniformly encoded and transmitted to the brain's taste center by taste buds, and the process has not been systematically studied for several decades. The aim of this work was to investigate the distribution of umami receptors on the tongue and its signal coding logic based on the taste bud biosensors. Taste bud biosensors were constructed by immobilizing the taste bud tissues from different tongue regions of the rabbit to the glassy carbon electrode surface; The Shennong information equations were used to analysis the pattern of umami receptors to encode ligands information; The signal amplification capabilities of two types umami receptors (T1R1/T1R3 and mGluRs) were analyzed for the two ligands (L-monosodium glutamate (MSG) and disodium 5'-inosinate (IMP)). The results showed that each taste bud biosensor could sense MSG and IMP with different response currents based on enzyme-substrate kinetics. There was only a small fraction of a great quantity of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) could be activated to encode MSG signal. Importantly, T1R1 was more expressed in the rostral tongue cells whose sensitivity to MSG was nearly 100 times stronger than that of caudal tongue cells. The method we proposed made it possible to reveal the distribution and signals coding logic of umami receptors for ligands, which showed great potential to explain the interaction mechanism of umami substances with their receptors more accurately and to develop of artificial intelligent taste sensory.

Abstract
Cell membrane, a semi-permeable membrane composed of phospholipid bilayers, is a natural barrier to prevent extracellular substances from freely entering the cell. Cell membrane with selective permeability and fluidity ensures the relative stability of the intracellular environment and enables various biochemical reactions to smoothly operate in an orderly manner. Inspired by the natural composition and transport process, various cell membranes and synthetic bionic films as the mimics of cell membranes have emerged as appealing camouflage materials for biosensing applications. The membranes are devoted to surface modification and substance delivery, and realize the detection or in situ analysis of multiple biomarkers, such as glucose, nucleic acids, virus, and circulating tumor cells. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in cell membrane camouflage-based biosensing applications, mainly focusing on the use of the membranes extracted from natural cells (e.g., blood cells and cancer cells) as well as biomimetic membranes. Materials and surfaces camouflaged with cell membranes are shown to have superior stability and biocompatibility as well as intrinsic properties of original cells, which greatly facilitate their use in biosensing. In specific, camouflage with blood cell membranes bestows low immunogenicity and prolonged blood circulation time, camouflage with cancer cell membranes provides homologous targeting ability, and camouflage with biomimetic membranes endows considerable plasticity for functionalization. Further research is expected to focus on the deeper understanding of cell-specific properties of membranes and the exploration of hybrid membranes, which might provide new development opportunities for cell membrane camouflage-based biosensing application.

Abstract
Tongue is a unique organ that senses tastes, and the scientific puzzle about whether electricity can evoke taste sensations and how the sensations have been distributed on the tongue has not been solved. Investigations on tongue stimulation by electricity might benefit the developments of techniques for clinical neuromodulation, tissue activation, and a brain-tongue-machine interface. To solve the scientific puzzle of whether electrical stimulation induces taste-related sensations, a portable flexible tongue electrode array system (FTEAS) was developed, which can synchronously provide electrical stimulation and signal mapping at each zone of the tongue. Utilizing the FTEAS to perform tests on the rat tongue in vivo, specific electrical signals were observed to be evoked by chemical and electrical stimulations. The features and distributions of the electric signals evoked during the rat tongue tests were systematically studied and comprehensively analyzed. The results show that an appropriate electrical stimulation can induce multiple sensations simultaneously, while the distribution of each sensation was not significantly distinguished among different zones of the tongue, and at the same time, this taste-related electrical signal can be recorded by the FTEAS. This work establishes a promising platform to solve the scientific puzzle of how sensations are activated chemically and electrically on the tongue and may provide advanced noninvasive oral-electrotherapy and a brain-tongue-machine interface.

Abstract
Chinese prickly ash is known for producing a typical pungent sensation in Sichuan Cuisine. Accumulating evidence suggest a series of health benefits and pharmacological effects associated with prickly ash. Therefore, a systematic analysis of the composition, structural properties, detection, and flavor mechanism of numbing substances is highly necessitated to address their future application. Sanshool-based unsaturated amides are the primary cause of tingling. The numbing substances have poor stability and are prone to oxidation and decomposition reactions due to their highly unsaturated conjugated diene structures. Pungent sensations evoked by different sanshools are distinct, which is attributed to different mechanisms of interaction with membrane ion channels (TRPV1, TRPA1, and KCNK). In this paper, the composition, structural properties (such as isomerization, oxidation), detection, and flavor mechanism of numbing substances of prickly ash were summarized. The prospective application and future research direction of numbing substances in the prickly ash industry were also proposed.
