Vitamin A status in healthy women eating traditionally prepared spirulina (Dihé) in the Chad Lake area.

PLoS ONE, 2018
BackgroundChad Lake is a central place in a region with a high prevalence of vitamin A deficiency. Spirulina, a natural source of β-carotene, is traditionally produced and eaten as "Dihé" around Chad Lake.

Levels of cellular retinol-binding proteins in the small intestine of rats during pregnancy and lactation.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
The movement and metabolism of vitamin A is dependent on a number of specific carrier proteins. The small intestine contains both cellular retinol-binding protein (type two) (CRBP(II], restricted to the villus-associated enterocytes, and cellular retinol-

Ginsenoside CK and retinol on UVA-induced photoaging exert the synergistic effect through antioxidant and antiapoptotic mechanisms

Scientific Reports
Retinol and retinoids can effectively intervene skin aging process, but usually induce skin intolerance. In this study, we aimed to determine the synergistic anti-aging effects of retinol and two retinol derivatives-hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR) and ...

Blood Biomarkers of Helicobacter pylori‐Infected Chronic Gastritis in Active Versus Stable Phases: A Clinical Indicator Analysis Combined With Proteomic and Metabolomic Investigations

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Combining clinical data with serum proteomics and metabolomics, the HGB–CAPZB–acetic acid model was developed as a potential diagnostic index to distinguish the active and stable stages of Helicobacter pylori‐infected chronic gastritis, and the related mechanism was explored through multi‐omics.

Maternal and infant gut microbiome

iMeta, EarlyView.
The maternal–infant continuum involves critical windows of host–microbiota co‐adaptation. Preconception, maternal and paternal microbiomes modulate immunity and reproduction. During pregnancy, a gut–placenta axis emerges, where microbial metabolites influence fetal growth or contribute to complications like gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM ...

Polyphenol dietary supplementation prevents inflammation‐induced muscle atrophy in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diet‐induced inflammation is a major cause of muscle degeneration impacting human and animal health. Owing to their anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties, polyphenols have attracted considerable interest as feed additives.
