Micromorpho‐anatomical studies on the leaves and woods of Turkish Daphne (Thymelaeaceae) taxa

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The identification of Daphne taxa is difficult because of the lack of available morphological characteristics. Here, we aimed to describe leaf and wood micromorpho‐anatomical characteristics of native Turkish Daphne taxa (D. glomerata, D. gnidioides, D. mezereum, D. mucronata, D. oleoides subsp. kurdica, D. pontica and D.

Mediterranean Versus Western Diet Effects on Obesity Phenotypes and Adipose Tissue Transcriptional Profiles in Female Monkeys

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Obesity, or excessive body fat, is a significant health risk factor. Western diets (WD) contribute to metabolic dysfunction and obesity, while Mediterranean diets (MD) improve metabolic health. This study examined the contrasting effects of WD versus MD on visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues (VAT, SAT) using a randomized ...
