Transcriptional and Non-transcriptional Regulation of Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Sensitivity through Vitamin D
Enormous progress in the investigation of vitamin D is currently being made from the perspective of basic science to clinical medicine. The typical view of vitamin D function limited to calcium metabolism and bone homeostasis has undergone extensive revision and it has been revealed that vitamin D receptors exist in most tissues of the body. Nowadays, one of the most popular aspects of vitamin D in research area is its role in glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. The functional mechanism of vitamin D in metabolism includes genomic and rapid non-genomic actions that are discussed in this review. Briefly, the modulator...

Winning Back the Consumer’s Confidence and Ensuring Consumer Safety in the COVID-19 Regime is Necessary for Revival of the Processed Food Industry
The pandemic COVID-19 has tremendously affected the food industry, particularly, the restaurants and other food vendors (FVs) that serve ready-to-eat foods. These food industries have been badly hit not only because of the lock down, imposed for COVID-19 containment, but also because of the consumer’s concern for food safety. To revive the processed food industry, it is necessary to win back the consumer’s confidence, which in turn requires a number of steps to be taken by both the policy makers and the food business operators. In this context, the present article describes how the maintenance of hygiene at places of f...

The Use of Time Domain NMR in Food Analysis: A Review
In this review, we focus on the recent developments in the Time Domain Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (TD-NMR). The Introduction section describes the methods usually adopted for the assessment of food quality, whereas the second paragraph illustrates the basic physical principles of the TD-NMR technique. In the third section, we discuss the principal application of the TDNMR method in food science. In fact, in the last decades, TD-NMR has become one of the most efficient and advanced techniques for the analysis of food products. In TD-NMR technique, the proton relaxation (transversal relaxation, T2) is monitored, providing in...

Association of Wheat Allergy and Coeliac Disease through Pediatric and Adult Age: A Review of Literature
In recent years, the prevalence of large spectrum of gluten-related disorders (GRDs) has increased. Gluten is one of the most widely distributed components of food in both industrialized and developing countries. The main structural protein complex of wheat and its proteins are classified into albumins, salt-soluble globulins, and insoluble prolamins (gliadins and glutenins). Gluten is also included in other cereals, including rye and barley. GRDs can be classified, based on their pathogenic mechanism, into (i) Autoimmune disorders, (ii) Allergic disorders, (iii) No autoimmune, not allergic disorders. Coeliac disease (CD) ...
