A head start: The relationship of placental factors to craniofacial and brain development

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, the importance of placental function for fetal neurodevelopment has become increasingly studied. This field, known as neuroplacentology, has greatly expanded possible etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders by exploring the influence of placental function on brain development.

Ketogenic diet therapy for epilepsy during pregnancy and lactation: An international survey exploring clinician perspectives

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Ketogenic diet therapies (KDTs) are increasingly used as a treatment for people with epilepsy of childbearing potential (PWECP) and glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (Glut1DS). The aim of this study was to collect information on clinical experience with KDT during pregnancy and lactation in these populations.

Hydrophobic Ligand Binding by Zn-α_2-glycoprotein, a Soluble Fat-depleting Factor Related to Major Histocompatibility Complex Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Zn-alpha2-glycoprotein (ZAG) is a member of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I family of proteins and is identical in amino acid sequence to a tumor-derived lipid-mobilizing factor associated with cachexia in cancer patients.

Food Toxicology and Safety: Evaluating Dietary Risks and Functional Ingredients

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
The pyramid's foundation reminds us that true health begins with daily habits—engage in 30–60 min of physical activity, nurture social connections and secure 7–9 h of restorative sleep each night to support metabolism, mood regulation, and hormonal balance—while continuously hydrating with 8–12 glasses of water and unsweetened herbal infusions (green ...

Modification of spleen phospholipid fatty acid composition by dietary fish oil and by n-3 fatty acid ethyl esters

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
We have compared the effects of diets containing purified ethyl esters of either eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, or a mixture of both of these compounds, with diets containing either purified fish oil or beef tallow on spleen phospholipid ...
