Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Brain fuel metabolism, aging, and Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yesNutrition, 2011
Lower brain glucose metabolism is present before the onset of clinically measurable cognitive decline in two groups of people at risk of Alzheimer's disease--carriers of apolipoprotein E4, and in those with a maternal family history of AD. Supported by emerging evidence from in vitro and animal studies, these reports suggest that brain hypometabolism ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Association of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D with the risk of depression in individuals with prediabetes and diabetes: A prospective cohort study

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging
Objective: Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is known to be associated with depression. However, the evidence concerning the association between vitamin D status and depressive episodes in population with prediabetes and diabetes remains limited.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The relationship between adult phenylketonuria and the cardiovascular system - insights into mechanisms and risks

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Studies in adults with PKU have mainly focused on the neuropsychiatric complications that may arise in individuals who are unable to maintain the recommended lifetime diet. Some recent epidemiological studies suggest to consider other complications.

Peripheral and cognitive benefits of physical exercise in a mouse model of midlife metabolic syndrome

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Despite national and international efforts for the prevention of metabolic syndrome and its underlying diseases/disorders, its prevalence is still rising, especially in the middle-aged population.
