The Role of Micronutrients in Atherosclerosis: Mechanisms and Clinical Application

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Micronutrients, though required in relatively small quantities by the human body, are essential for maintaining normal physiological functions and play a crucial role in the prevention and management of various diseases. Atherosclerosis (AS) is a common chronic inflammatory condition that often presents without obvious symptoms in its early ...

Epigenetic Mechanisms in Childhood Obesity

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1553, Issue 1, Page 112-123, November 2025.
Abstract Epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modification, and activity of noncoding RNAs (nc RNAs), affect the regulation of gene expression. These mechanisms are regulated by numerous environmental factors and are critical at specific windows of biological development, when organs and systems plasticity is increased.

Body fat and dairy product intake in lactase persistent and non-persistent children and adolescents

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2010
Background : Lactase non-persistent (LNP) individuals may be lactose intolerant and therefore on a more restricted diet concerning milk and milk products compared to lactase persistent (LP) individuals. This may have an impact on body fat mass. Objective

Obesity-related gene ADRB2, ADRB3 and GHRL polymorphisms and the response to a weight loss diet intervention in adult women

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2014
The individual response to diet may be influenced by gene polymorphisms. This study hypothesized that ADRB2 (Gln27Glu, rs1042714 and Arg16Gly, rs1042713), ADRB3 (Trp64Arg, rs4994) and GHRL (Leu72Met, rs696217) polymorphisms moderate weight loss.
