Lipid-clearing tea aqueous extract alleviates dyslipidaemia in vivo and in vitro by activating the AMPK pathway

Food & Medicine Homology
Diseases such as dyslipidemia caused by lipid accumulation have gradually become one of the most damaging underlying threats to human health. Lipid Clearing Tea (LCT) is a kind of functional food formulated with four homology of medicine and food, and it

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...

Association between gestational diabetes mellitus, maternal health and diet, and gut microbiota in mother-infant dyads

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth
Background Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increasingly affects women and predisposes both mothers and their infants to short- and long-term health consequences. Emerging research links GDM to maternal gut microbiota dysbiosis. However, the impact of

Modelling functional food choice and health care impacts: A literature review [PDF]

The global market for functional foods is estimated to be worth about US$33 billion (Hilliam, 2000). Given the information asymmetry inherent in functional foods, labelling information plays a key role in allowing consumers to make informed choices ...

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 ...

The C‐terminal region of KIF26B is indispensable for nephron progenitor condensation and kidney formation in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KIF26B plays an important role in kidney development. We engineered mice lacking the C‐terminal region of KIF26B and found severe kidney defects, including bilateral renal agenesis, similar to full Kif26b knockout mice. The mutation disrupted nephron progenitor condensation and reduced Gdnf‐Wnt11 signaling, showing that the KIF26B C‐terminal region is ...

Would Functional Agricultural Foods Improve Human Health? [PDF]

Concern over diet-health relationships has moved to the forefront of public health concerns in the UK and much of the developed world. It has been estimated, for example, that obesity costs the UK National Health Service up to £6b per year (Rayner and ...
