Betaine Alleviates LPS-Induced Chicken Skeletal Muscle Inflammation with the Epigenetic Modulation of the TLR4 Gene

Animals, 2022
Betaine was found to alleviate inflammation in different studies. Here, newly hatched broilers were randomly divided into control and betaine consumptive groups, who had access to normal drinking water and water with betaine at a dose of 1000 mg/L ...

Prediction and Biochemical Demonstration of a Catabolic Pathway for the Osmoprotectant Proline Betaine

mBio, 2014
Through the use of genetic, enzymatic, metabolomic, and structural analyses, we have discovered the catabolic pathway for proline betaine, an osmoprotectant, in Paracoccus denitrificans and Rhodobacter sphaeroides.

THE MODULATORY EFFECT OF DIETARY BETAINE ON INTESTINAL ABSORPTIVE CAPACITY, LIPOGENESIS AND EXPRESSION OF LIPID METABOLISM- AND GROWTH-RELATED GENES IN NILE TILAPIA FED ON SOYBEAN MEAL-BASED DIET

Slovenian Veterinary Research, 2019
The current experiment was randomly designed in a 2×2 factorial design. Two dietary protein sources were utilized; fish meal and soybean meal; with betaine incorporation to both of them.

Betaine and secondary events in an acute coronary syndrome cohort. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Betaine insufficiency is associated with unfavourable vascular risk profiles in metabolic syndrome patients. We investigated associations between betaine insufficiency and secondary events in acute coronary syndrome patients. METHODS: Plasma (

Effects of betaine on lipopolysaccharide-induced memory impairment in mice and the involvement of GABA transporter 2

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2011
Background Betaine (glycine betaine or trimethylglycine) plays important roles as an osmolyte and a methyl donor in animals. While betaine is reported to suppress expression of proinflammatory molecules and reduce oxidative stress in aged rat kidney, the

The betaine/GABA transporter and betaine: roles in brain, kidney, and liver [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2014
The physiological roles of the betaine/GABA transporter (BGT1; slc6a12) are still being debated. BGT1 is a member of the solute carrier family 6 (the neurotransmitter, sodium symporter transporter family) and mediates cellular uptake of betaine and GABA in a sodium- and chloride-dependent process.

The association of serum betaine concentrations with the risk of new-onset cancers: results from two independent nested case-control studies

Nutrition & Metabolism, 2023
Evidence from epidemiologic studies on the association of circulating betaine levels with the incident risk of cancer has been inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the prospective association of serum betaine concentrations with the risk of cancer.

Eutectozymes as Soft Hybrid Materials for Advanced Biocatalysis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Eutectozymes are sustainable hybrid materials that embed a GOx–HRP cascade within hydrophobic eutectogels featuring a dual supramolecular–covalent network. This architecture preserves native enzyme structure and stability, enables efficient heterogeneous biocatalysis in aqueous media, and positions eutectogels as robust platforms for next‐generation ...
