Stress Nutrition in Aquatic Animals: From Definition to Practice

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture faces numerous challenges, with stress being one of the major issues that lead to growth loss, metabolic disorders, weakened immunity, redox imbalance, and organ damage in aquatic animals. Nutritional intervention is one of the effective strategies to address these problems. Traditional research has primarily focused on the impacts

Prevention of Retinal Degeneration in a Rat Model of Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) is a recessive human disease caused by defective cholesterol (CHOL) synthesis at the level of DHCR7 (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase), which normally catalyzes the conversion of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) to CHOL ...

Is sunlight good for our heart? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Humans evolved being exposed for about half of the day to the light of the sun. Nowadays, exposure to sunlight is actively discouraged for fear of skin cancer, and contemporary lifestyles are associated with long hours spent under artificial light ...

The Influence of Schwann Cell Metabolism and Dysfunction on Axon Maintenance

open access: yesGlia, Volume 73, Issue 12, Page 2338-2352, December 2025.
Main Points Sensory neurons depend on Schwann cells for survival. Schwann cells provide energy for axons dunng rapid firing or after injury. Dysregulated metabolism in Schwann cells can lead to the production of neurotoxic and axon degeneration. ABSTRACT Schwann cells are the glial cells in the peripheral nervous system responsible for the production ...

Elevated autophagy and mitochondrial dysfunction in the Smith–Lemli–Opitz Syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2014
Smith–Lemli–Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) is a congenital, autosomal recessive metabolic and developmental disorder caused by mutations in the enzyme which catalyzes the reduction of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) to cholesterol.

GAME9 regulates the biosynthesis of steroidal alkaloids and upstream isoprenoids in the plant mevalonate pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs) are cholesterol-derived molecules produced by solanaceous species. They contribute to pathogen defence but are toxic to humans and considered as anti-nutritional compounds.
