Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

Associations between the overall nutritional quality of prepackaged food categories consumed at breakfast or as snacks and the presence of nutrition-related labelling messages: a cross-sectional analysis of products sold in the province of Québec (Canada)

BMC Nutrition
Background In Canada, there are no requirements regarding the healthfulness of foods carrying nutrition claims. Also, as of 2026, most prepackaged foods with a high content in saturated fat, sugars and/or sodium will be required to display Health Canada ...

Functional Foods Research Group: Stephen Wanyonyi

Obesity as part of metabolic syndrome is a major lifestyle disorder throughout the world. Current drug treatments for obesity produce small and usually unsustainable decreases in body weight with the risk of major adverse effects.

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Increased production of VLDL apoB-100 in subjects with familial hypercholesterolemia carrying the same null LDL receptor gene mutation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Early radiokinetic studies revealed that the classical metabolic defect in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is hypocatabolism of LDL due to decreased LDL receptor activity. However, recent studies have suggested that hepatic oversecretion

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.

Functional foods: regulations, beneficial role in the prevention of chronic pathologies and evaluation of their knowledge among the healthcare personnel

, 2023
reservedIt is widely recognised that maintaining good psycho-physical health requires a healthy diet and appropriate lifestyle choices. Globalisation has certainly led to a greater food availability, but very often today's hectic pace leads people to ...

Sudden anaerobization in Amphibacillus xylanus increases intracellular labile ferrous iron and inhibits cell growth

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...
