Chemical Composition, Amino Acids, Phenolic Profiles and Bioavailability of Minerals in Livingstone Potato (Plectranthus esculentus) as Affected by Different Processing Techniques

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.

Promoting Safe Opioid Disposal: Experimental Evidence on Behavioral Messaging With Financial Incentives

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Some patients prescribed opioid pills fail to properly dispose of their unused pills, posing a risk for others. We report results from a pre‐registered field experiment testing whether behaviorally informed reminder cards increase participation in a financial incentive program for returning unused opioid pills among U.S. Veterans.

PVT1 lincRNA signals an androgen‐dependent transcriptional activation program of oncogenes in prostate cancer cells

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Unraveling the networks that regulate androgen receptor (AR) function is critical to better understanding prostate cancer development and progression. Of particular interest in this regard is the long non‐coding RNA PVT1, which regulates gene expression in cancer and is upregulated in prostate tumors.

Evaluating the Endocrine‐Disrupting and Oxidative Stress Potential of a 50‐Component Human‐Relevant Complex Chemical Mixture Using In Vitro Tests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Humans are chronically exposed to mixtures of environmental contaminants. Exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) contributes to increased health impairment observed globally. This study aimed to evaluate the endocrine‐disruptive and oxidative stress potential of a human‐relevant, complex chemical mixture in vitro.
