Mangiferin protects DNase 2 abundance via Nrf2 activation to prevent cytosolic mtDNA accumulation during liver injury
Conclusion: These findings provide new insights into the role of mangiferin as a liver protecting agent, and suggest protection of DNase 2 as a novel therapeutic strategy for pharmacological intervention to prevent liver damage.This article is protected by copyright.

Front Cover: Green Tea Epigallocatechin Gallate Inhibits Preadipocyte Growth via the microRNA ‐let‐7a/HMGA2 Signaling Pathway
Mol. Nutr. Food Res. 2023,67,202200336DOI:10.1002/mnfr.202200336Green tea epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) inhibits the growth of 3T3-L1 white and D12 beige preadipocytes at least through modulations of microRNA-let-7a and high mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2) expression levels. EGCG increases microRNA-let-7a levels and decreases HMGA2 gene expression. This is reported by Ching-Feng Cheng, Hui-Chen Ku, Yung-Hsi Kao, and co-workers in article number2200336.

Cross ‐sectional study: New approach for diagnostic identification of non‐robust older adult
Conclusion: These results indicate that the obvious interrelation between gut microbiota and serum metabolites in non-robust older adults. Besides, our findings suggested that Escherichia/Shigella could be a potential biomarker candidate for robustness sub-phenotypic identification.This article is protected by copyright.

(+) ‐catechin attenuates multiple atherosclerosis‐associated processes in vitro, modulates disease‐associated risk factors in C57BL/6J mice and reduces atherogenesis in LDL receptor deficient mice by inhibiting inflammation and increasing markers of plaque stability
ConclusionThis study provides novel, detailed insights into the cardio-protective actions of (+)-catechin together with underlying molecular mechanisms and supports further assessments of its beneficial effects in human trials.This article is protected by copyright.
