ABSTRACT Background Despite extensive documentation of the immunomodulatory effects of anthocyanidins, population‐based epidemiological studies have yet to elucidate their association with thyroid autoimmunity (TAI). Methods Using flavonoid intake data from the Flavonoid and Anthocyanidin Database (FNDDS) and 2007–2010 National Health and Nutrition ...

Medications That Regulate Pregnane X Receptor: A Systematic Review of Current Evidence
PRISMA 2020 flow diagram of study selection for this systematic review of medications that regulate the pregnane X receptor (PXR), from 12 236 records screened to 101 included studies. ABSTRACT The pregnane X receptor (PXR) gene encodes a ligand‐activated protein involved with the metabolism and excretion of drugs, toxins, and other xenobiotics.

Alpha‐crystallin B chain (CRYAB) has been reported to stabilize mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 4 (SMAD4) in transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) signaling, enabling target gene transcription. We show nuclear CRYAB–SMAD4 interaction for the first time in human skeletal muscle fibers and its regulation by exercise.

The Importance of Phytoestrogens in Food Supplements and Phytopharmaceuticals
Different natural products from the plant kingdom including isoflavones, prenylflavones, coumestans, stilbenes, and lignans can cause endocrine perturbations, especially on the estrogenic hormonal pathway because of their structural analogies to

Abstract Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are neuroendocrine‐disrupting chemicals that produce adverse neurodevelopmental effects. PBDEs have been implicated as risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which is characterized by abnormal psychosocial functioning and is commonly comorbid with cognitive deficits and sensory abnormalities ...

Association between Spot urine Phytoestrogens as Biomarkers on Their Dietary Intake on the Risk of Death from Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
This study suggests that phytoestrogen intake alters cancer and cardiovascular risk. This study investigated the associations of urinary phytoestrogens with total cancer (n = 198), cardiovascular (n = 152), and all-cause (n = 363) mortality among 5179 ...

Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as Model Organisms in Biofactor Research
This review presents Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as powerful and ethically sound invertebrate model organisms that can be used to investigate nutritional science questions relating to biofactors. Such nutritional phenotyping studies can bridge the gap between in vitro studies and in vivo research in mammals.

Abstract Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is a widely grown perennial forage legume that supports sustainable livestock production through its high nutritive value and bioactive isoflavones. Future climate change, particularly warming and increased rainfall, may influence forage accumulation and isoflavone concentrations.
