Partially substituting alfalfa hay with hemp forage promotes the health and well‐being of goats via altering ruminal and plasma metabolites and metabolic pathways

Animal Research and One Health, Volume 3, Issue 1, Page 82-101, February 2025.
Hemp forage (HF) seems to be a suitable forage for ruminants that exert health and growth promoting activities. The current study investigated the effects of substituting alfalfa hay with hemp forage (HF), which is high in nutritional value and rich in phytochemicals, on rumen and plasma metabolome using HPLC‐MS. The numbers of differential metabolites

Understanding the Mechanisms of Lipid Metabolism Reprogramming and Ferroptosis in Diabetic Kidney Disease Progression

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a common complication of diabetes. The primary mechanism by which renal damage affects renal cells, including podocytes and renal tubular epithelial cells in DKD patients, is lipid metabolism reprogramming. These changes result in a metabolic stress response, including oxidative stress, energy stress in mitochondria ...
