Vitamin D and calcium metabolism in horses in New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Science at Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences (IVABS), Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
The physiology of vitamin D in horses has not been studied in great depth. Few studies on vitamin D metabolites (25OHD2, 25OHD3, and 1,25(OH)2D) and their relationship to other serum analytes exist. In addition, some studies suggest that equine vitamin D

What's new? Endocrine drugs repurposed from treatment protocols are the primary medications available for breast cancer (BC) prevention in at‐risk women. Adverse effects, however, significantly minimize uptake and prevention impact. Here, the authors investigated licochalcone A (LicA), a non‐endocrine anti‐inflammatory agent with reported hematologic ...

Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a genetic disorder characterized by low plasma cholesterol and high 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC). Synthesis of cholesterol and 7-DHC and its metabolites is regulated by HMG-CoA reductase, whose activity can be ...

RNA‐Binding Proteins and Ferroptosis in Cancer: Mechanism and Therapeutic Implications
Ferroptosis critically influences cancer cell fate and represents a promising therapeutic strategy. Emerging evidence identifies RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) as key post‐transcriptional regulators of ferroptosis. The figure summarizes ferroptosis‐related RBPs across cancers: blue RBPs act as tumor suppressors by promoting ferroptosis, whereas red RBPs ...

Localization of sterols and oxysterols in mouse brain reveals distinct spatial cholesterol metabolism [PDF]
Dysregulated cholesterol metabolism is implicated in a number of neurological disorders. Many sterols, including cholesterol and its precursors and metabolites, are biologically active and important for proper brain function. However, spatial cholesterol

Lifespan‐Extending Endogenous Metabolites
Endogenous metabolites act as mediators of longevity by modulating conserved cellular pathways. We summarize mechanistic evidence linking specific metabolites to lifespan and healthspan benefits across model systems, with discussion of clinical evidence, translational opportunities, and remaining knowledge gaps.

Stability study of dehydrocholesterols in dried spot of blood from patients with Smith–Lemli–Opitz syndrome, using filter-paper treated with butylated hydroxytoluene [PDF]
Considering the clinical importance of implementing a screening method for cholesterol and dehydrocholesterols in dried blood spot, this study aims to standardize the preanalytical variability of DHC in DBS for detecting SLOS by using filter paper ...
