Prenatal betamethasone–postnatal N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid model of spasms: Update on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

Diet transition to a high-fat diet for 3 weeks reduces brain omega-3-fatty acid levels, alters BDNF signaling and induces anxiety & depression-like behavior in adult rats [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The consumption of diets high in calories and low in nutrient value is becoming increasingly common in modern society, which can lead to metabolic disorders like diabetes and obesity, and potentially to psychiatric disorders.

Tracking Glucose Trends, Unveiling Clinical Patterns: Insights From Continuous Glucose Monitoring in Patients at the Extreme of BMI and Eating Disorders Psychopathology

European Eating Disorders Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disturbances of glucose homoeostasis are claimed to act as both a consequence and maintaining factor in eating disorders (EDs). This study explored glucose trends and their association with real‐time food intake and self‐report eating psychopathology in a sample of patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and binge‐eating disorder (BED ...

Desulfovibrio‐Hydrogen Sulfide Mediates Capsaicin‐Induced Oxidative Stress and Gut Inflammation via TXNIP/NLRP3 Pathway

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The intake of capsaicin can disrupt the gut microecology and impact health, yet its underlying mechanism is not fully elucidated. This study, by establishing capsaicin‐induced human microbiota‐associated (HMA) mouse models revealed the molecular mechanism by which capsaicin perturbs the gut microbiota and metabolites, leading to intestinal ...

Neuropeptides as regulators of bone metabolism: from molecular mechanisms to traditional Chinese medicine intervention strategies

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Osteoporosis (OP) is a complex bone metabolism disorder disease that affects the skeleton, nervous system, muscles, and multiple tissues. Neuropeptides, which are endogenous substances derived from both bone and brain, play a critical role in maintaining

Anuran call properties as reliable indicators of environmental suitability for reproduction

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
The onset of animal breeding activity is often accompanied by auditory signals, typically produced by males, that indicate reproductive status to potential mates and competitors. Here, using male anuran advertisement calls as a case study, we present the novel hypothesis that characteristics of ectotherm auditory signals that are modulated by ...

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.
