Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Demographic, Residential, and Socioeconomic Effects on the Distribution of 19th Century White Body Mass Index Values [PDF]
Little research exists on the body mass index values of 19th century Americans of European descent. Using a new BMI data set and robust statistics, between 1860 and 1880, BMIs decreased across the distribution; however, after 1880, BMIs in the highest ...

The microbiome in human skin aging
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

The Adjusted Measure of Body Mass Index for the Chinese and its Impact on Health [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of socio-economic status (SES) on the Body Mass Index (BMI), a formula based on the ratio of height to weight, linked to health, using a four-year (1991, 1993, 1997 and 2000) panel data set which comes from ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Demographic, Residential, and Socioeconomic Effects on the Distribution of 19th Century African-American Body Mass Index Values [PDF]
Little research exists on the body mass index values of late 19th and early 20th century African-Americans. Using a new BMI data set and robust statistics, this paper demonstrates that late 19th and early 20th century black BMI variation by age increased

Development of a consistent body mass index
Scientific ReportsA new body mass index, termed Consistent Body Mass Index CBMI= $$\:\sqrt{m/{h}^{3}}$$ , is developed from first principles. Customarily used Body Mass Index (BMI $$\:=m/{h}^{2}$$ ) or its variant Tri-ponderal Mass Index (TMI $$\:=m/{h}^{3}$$ ) or other ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Body mass index as a standard of living measure: a different interpretation for the case of Colombia. [PDF]
We analyze the Body Mass Index (BMI) in a distinct way of its traditional use and it lets us use it as a proxy of standard of living for the case of Colombia. Our approach is focused on studying how far the people are from the normal range and not on the
