RESUMEN

Drug resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) is an important public health issue in different parts of the world. Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex variants (MTBC vars) preferentially infect certain hosts, limiting their distribution to different ecosystems. However, MTBC vars can infect other hosts beyond their preferred target potentially contributing to persistence of drug resistance (DR) in other niches. Here, we performed a comprehensive intra-host genetic analysis for the identification of DR-related mutations among all MTBC minor vars whole genome sequences (8,095 strains) publicly available worldwide. High confidence drug-resistance mutations in katG (isoniazid), rpsL (streptomycin), pncA (pyrazinamide), rpoB (rifampicin) and gyrA (fluoroquinolones) genes were identified among intrahost minor sub-populations in 197 different strains (2.43%) belonging to vars africanum, bovis, caprae, microti, orygis and pinnipedii. In addition, a three-dimensional structure modeling analysis to assess the role of novel mutations was also performed. Our findings highlight the importance of detecting discrete intra-host populations carrying DR mutations.

RESUMEN

In this research functional beverages based on the unprocessed and extruded sesame seeds byproduct were fabricated; phytochemical profile, antioxidant, antidiabetic, and hypoglycemic potential were evaluated. Twenty-four phytochemical compounds were identified in total in both beverages; fourteen of the phytochemical compounds were not modified by the extrusion process. Seventeen of the 24 compounds were identified in the unprocessed sesame seeds byproduct flour beverage-10% (UB10) and 21 in the extruded sesame seeds byproduct flour beverage-10% (EB10). The compounds only identified in UB10 are caffeic acid, luteolin-7-O-glucoside, and isorhamnetin; and in EB10 those compounds were vanillic acid, acteoside, luteolin, quercetin, and melanoidins. No significant difference was observed in the content of total phenolic compounds (TPC) (14.90 and 15.97 mg GAE/100 mL) and total flavonoids (TF) (5.37 and 5.85 mg QE/100 mL). An increase in the biological activity of ESFB10 (IC50: ABTS = 0.19, DPPH = 0.21, α-amylase = 1.01, α-glucosidase = 0.17, DPP4 = 0.11 mg/mL) was observed, compared to UB10 (IC50: ABTS = 0.24, DPPH = 0.31, α-amylase = 2.29, α-glucosidase = 0.47, DPP4 = 0.30 mg/mL). Therefore, the extrusion process had a positive effect, which displayed the highest efficiency inhibiting the free radicals and enzymes related to carbohydrate metabolism.
