Fanconi syndrome induced by red yeast rice supplement. [PDF]

J Rural Med
Fanconi syndrome is a disorder of the proximal renal tubules characterized by metabolic acidosis, renal glycosuria, and aminoaciduria. Recently, Fanconi syndrome caused by red yeast rice supplements has been reported. We encountered a 60-year-old woman with acute kidney injury and Fanconi syndrome caused by a red yeast rice supplement.

Red Yeast Rice for Hypercholesterolemia: JACC Focus Seminar.

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2021
The extracts of red yeast rice (RYR) are currently the most effective cholesterol-lowering nutraceuticals. This activity is mainly due to monacolin K, a weak reversible inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, whose daily consumption causes a reduction in low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol plasma levels up to 15% to 25 ...

Red Yeast Rice [PDF]

Foods, 2017
Red yeast rice (RYR), produced by the fermentation of the Monascus purpureus mold, has been used for a long time in Asian cuisine and traditional medicine. It consists of multiple bioactive substances, including monacolins, which potentially can be used as a nutraceutical. Monacolin K, which is chemically identical to lovastatin, has been recognized as

Rhabdomyolysis Related to Red Yeast Rice Ingestion

Cureus, 2023
Red yeast rice is made by fermenting white rice with the fungus Monascus purpureus. It has lipid-lowering effects due to the presence of monacolin, produced by the fungus, and therefore shares the same biological and side effects as a statin, namely it may cause rhabdomyolysis.

Red Yeast Rice for Hypercholesterolemia

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2019
The extract of red yeast rice (RYR) is the most effective cholesterol-lowering nutraceutical on the market. In particular, its effectiveness is directly related to the amount of monacolin K within the extract (up to 10 mg/day). Consuming monacolin K on a daily basis reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol plasma levels between 15% and 25 ...

The Lipid-Lowering Properties of Red Yeast Rice [PDF]

AMA Journal of Ethics, 2011
Red yeast rice is an over-the-counter supplement, long used in China, that has shown lipid-lowering effects in trials. It has become popular among Americans but, until regulation and standardization improve, its use will remain controversial.

Scientific opinion on the safety of monacolins in red yeast rice [PDF]

EFSA Journal, 2018
The Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety of monacolins in red yeast rice (RYR) and to provide advice on a dietary intake of monacolins that does not give rise to concerns about harmful effects to health.

Auto‐Downregulation of the Florigen FT Production Prevents Precocious Flowering in Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that the leaf vein‐expressed FD complexes with the florigen FT to bind DNA motifs in FT promoter, which antagonizes CONSTANS‐mediated FT activation to feedback down‐regulate FT expression. This prevents an excessive induction of FT expression by inductive photoperiods, thereby precluding precocious transition to flowering in ...

An Artificially Selected Cytokinin‐Pathway Transcription Factor Balances Soybean Yield and Pathogen Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cytokinin pathway transcription factor, RR2b, was artificially selected during soybean domestication and improvement based on its differential transcriptional activity, which correlates with ATT repeat polymorphisms in its promoter. RR2b balances yield and defense by fine‐tuning its expression level and offers a promising target for decoupling trade ...
