Prebiotic, Probiotic, and Synbiotic Supplementation in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]
Gut dysbiosis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Restoring gut microbiota with prebiotic, probiotic, and synbiotic supplementation has emerged as a potential therapeutic intervention but has not been systematically ...

Effects of synbiotic supplement on human gut microbiota, body composition and weight loss in obesity [PDF]
Targeting gut microbiota with synbiotics (probiotic supplements containing prebiotic components) is emerging as a promising intervention in the comprehensive nutritional approach to reducing obesity.

The origin of life is in a sense a genetic problem, for, as H. J. Muller pointed out many years ago, the essential attribute that identifies living matter is its capacity to replicate itself and its variants (1). Because this uniquely biological property

Maternal obesity and resistance to breast cancer treatments among offspring: Link to gut dysbiosis
Abstract Background About 50 000 new cases of cancer in the United States are attributed to obesity. The adverse effects of obesity on breast cancer may be most profound when affecting the early development; that is, in the womb of a pregnant obese mother.

The origins and physical roots of life’s dual – metabolic and genetic – nature [PDF]
This review paper aims at a better understanding of the origin and physical foundation of life’s dual – metabolic and genetic – nature. First, I give a concise ‘top-down’ survey of the origin of life, i.e., backwards in time from extant DNA/RNA/protein ...

A deeper understanding regarding the enzyme‐carrier interactions and the enzyme conformation may bring clues about the inherent processes that occur during enzyme immobilization. In this study, the enzyme β‐galactosidase was immobilized on a meso‐macroporous silica carrier, and infrared spectroscopy allowed the search for such clues to explain the ...

Influence of the UV Environment on the Synthesis of Prebiotic Molecules [PDF]
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is common to most planetary environments, and could play a key role in the chemistry of molecules relevant to abiogenesis (prebiotic chemistry). In this work, we explore the impact of UV light on prebiotic chemistry that might occur in liquid water on the surface of a planet with an atmosphere.

Modern views of ancient metabolic networks [PDF]
Metabolism is a molecular, cellular, ecological and planetary phenomenon, whose fundamental principles are likely at the heart of what makes living matter different from inanimate one. Systems biology approaches developed for the quantitative analysis of
