Effects of a high‐fat diet on gut microbiota and possible implications for bone health in male Wistar rats

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
Abstract Diet plays an important role in the composition of gut microbiota. Emerging research suggests that bone homeostasis can also be influenced by the gut microbiota. The aim of this study was to assess possible alterations in gut microbiota in an experimental obesity model induced by a high‐fat diet (HFD) and the possible effects on parameters of ...

Exogenous oxidized phytosterol may modulate linoleic acid metabolism through upregulation of fatty acid desaturase in rats

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous in vitro studies have indicated that oxidized phytosterol (OPS) exhibits some toxicity; however, the harmful effects of OPS on fatty acid metabolism are not completely understood yet. Therefore, this study examined the effects of exogenous phytosterol (PS) and OPS on growth parameters and lipid metabolism in rats.

Mesoporous Semi‐Permeable Flexible Polyurethane Membranes: Advancing Bioartificial Pancreas Design for Type 1 Diabetes Treatment

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Elastomeric mesoporous membranes are developed for the elaboration of a bioartificial pancreas for type 1 diabetes treatment. Using green‐electrospinning followed by thermal and washing post‐treatments, the membranes achieve ≈20 nm pore sizes, biocompatibility, and mechanical strength and flexibility.

Resveratrol Prevents Weight Gain, Counteracts Visceral Adipose Tissue Dysfunction, and Improves Hypothalamic Leptin Sensitivity in Diet‐Induced Obese Rats

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Resveratrol improves hypothalamic leptin sensitivity and prevents body weight gain in obese animals, while mitigating adipocyte hypertrophy and promoting adipocyte hyperplasia in the retroperitoneal fat depot. ABSTRACT In obesity, increased adipocyte size is associated with metabolic complications, while elevated adipocyte numbers are considered a ...
