Improved production of docosahexaenoic acid in batch fermentation by newly-isolated strains of Schizochytrium sp. and Thraustochytriidae sp. through bioprocess optimization

Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2018
Thraustochytrids, rich in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6ω3), represent a potential source of dietary fatty acids. Yet, the effect of culture conditions on growth and fatty acid composition vary widely among different thraustochytrid strains.

Socioeconomic Status Modifies the Risk of Gastric Cancer Through Metabolomic Signature: Evidence From a Prospective Cohort Study

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The role of metabolites in the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and gastric cancer remains unclear. This study seeks to elucidate the role of metabolomics in the association between SES and gastric cancer, as well as to explore potential interactions between metabolic signatures and polygenic risk score (PRS) in the context of ...

Guidelines for nutrition in adults with head and neck cancer: The American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Head and neck cancer represents the seventh most common cancer diagnosis globally. Maintaining sufficient nutrition is important for preventing malnutrition (undernutrition) and muscle wasting, which contribute to worse outcomes, although many patients are unable to maintain adequate oral intake throughout treatment.

Efficacy of omega‐3 fatty acids as a functional food: a multifaceted approach to health reinforcement

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Omega‐3 fatty acids (omega‐3s) are polyunsaturated fatty acids linked with numerous health benefits. Omega‐3s exhibit multifaceted activities through various mechanisms. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) alleviates oxidative stress by lowering reactive oxygen species and improving oxidative stress in brain tissues and acts against neurodegenerative ...
