Effects of epicatechin on cardiovascular function in middle-aged diet-induced obese rat models of metabolic syndrome
This study aimed to investigate the cardiovascular effects of epicatechin, a flavonoid found in green tea and cocoa, in attenuating complications associated with metabolic syndrome in diet-induced obese rats.Male Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats aged 16 weeks were fed either standard rat chow (SC) or given a high-fat-high-carbohydrate (HFHC) diet for 20 weeks. Epicatechin treatment (5mg/kg/day) was administered to a subset of WKY rats commencing at week 8 of the 20 week HFHC feeding period. Body weights, food, water and energy intakes, blood pressure, heart rate and glucose tolerance were measured throughout the treatment period. O...

Prenatal dietary exposure to chemicals and allergy or respiratory diseases in children in the EDEN mother-child cohort
CONCLUSION: Prenatal dietary exposure to chemicals was associated with risk of allergic rhinitis or wheezing up to age 8 y. A few chemicals were associated with other allergic and respiratory diseases. Larger prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.PMID:37734145 | DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2023.108195

Unraveling the contribution of dietary intake to human phthalate internal exposure
Environ Pollut. 2023 Sep 19:122580. doi: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122580. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHuman exposure to phthalates (PAEs) occurs primarily through diet, but the contribution of dietary exposure to the total internal exposure of PAEs has not been well studied. This work investigated the relationship between dietary exposure and human internal exposure to PAEs. Daily food samples were determined to evaluate the health risk of dietary exposure, and phthalate metabolites (mPAEs) were determined from urine samples of 360 volunteers of Guangzhou to assess their internal exposure. The total mPAEs concentration in t...

Significant Changes in Resting Metabolic Rate Over a Competitive Match Week Are Accompanied by an Absence of Nutritional Periodization in Male Professional Soccer Players
We report, for the first time, that RMR is significantly increased following a competitive match in professional soccer players. In addition, we confirm previous findings to reinforce that players exhibit inadequate nutrition periodization practices, which may impair physical performance and recovery.PMID:37734739 | DOI:10.1123/ijsnem.2023-0069

Organic or Inorganic Zinc for Laying Hens? A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of the Effects of Zinc Sources on Laying Performance, Egg Quality, and Zinc Excretion
Biol Trace Elem Res. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1007/s12011-023-03861-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe higher availability of zinc (Zn) from organic than inorganic sources is already established, but more assertive and cost-friendly protocols on the total replacement of inorganic with organic Zn sources for laying hens still need to be developed. Because some discrepancy in the effects of this replacement in laying hen diets is noticeable in the literature, the objective of this meta-analysis was to properly quantify the effect size of total replacing inorganic Zn with organic Zn in the diet of laying hens on their laying pe...

Effects of Dietary Valine Chelated Zinc Supplementation on Growth Performance, Antioxidant Capacity, Immunity, and Intestine Health in Weaned Piglets
In conclusion, the present research showed that supplementation of ZnVal improves growth performance by increasing antioxidant capacity and immunity and regulating intestinal morphology and the optimal inclusion level of ZnVal was 65~80 mg/kg.PMID:37730969 | DOI:10.1007/s12011-023-03870-2

Linc00657 promoted pyroptosis in THP-1-derived macrophages and exacerbated atherosclerosis via the miR-106b-5p/TXNIP/NLRP3 axis
This study was designed to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of linc00657 in atherogenesis. The results showed that ox-LDL treatment significantly induced pyroptosis in human THP-1-derived macrophages. The secretion levels of LDH and pro-inflammatory factors were markedly enhanced, and the integrity of plasma membranes was disrupted in ox-LDL-treated THP-1-derived macrophages. These effects were significantly compensated after transfection with linc00657 siRNA and became more evident by linc00657 overexpression. Moreover, the effects of linc00657 overexpression on pyroptosis of THP-1-derived macrophages can...

Transitioning to a Plant-Based Menu in Childcare: Identifying the Nutritional, Financial, and Logistical Considerations
Can J Diet Pract Res. 2023 Sep 21:1-5. doi: 10.3148/cjdpr-2023-015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInternational health organizations have called for a shift towards more plant-based foods as a way of promoting both individual health and environmental sustainability. Given the high percentage of children in Canada who attend childcare and the high volume of food provided in childcare, transitioning menus to incorporate plant-based foods could have important implications for both planetary and child health. The purpose of this case study is to describe a childcare centre's transition to a plant-based menu. A detailed nutriti...

Involvement of the heat shock response (HSR) regulatory pathway in cadmium-elicited cerebral damage
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29880-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe heat shock response (HSR) is a cellular protective mechanism that is characterized by the induction of heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) and heat shock proteins (HSPs) in response to diverse cellular and environmental stressors, including cadmium (Cd). However, little is known about the relationship between the damaging effects of Cd and the HSR pathway in the chicken cerebrum following Cd exposure. To explore whether Cd exposure elicits cerebral damage and triggers the HSR pathway, chicks were exposed to Cd in...

Gut microbiota regulation of inflammatory cytokines and microRNAs in diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1007/s00253-023-12754-3. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has a major comorbidity known as diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction (DACD). Studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiota is crucial in mediating the cognitive abnormalities that occur in diabetic individuals. Additionally, changes in dietary fatty acid intake levels, inflammatory cytokines, and microRNAs (miRs) have an effect on cognitive performance. However, further studies are needed to identify the link between gut microbiota and cognition in T2DM patients and the role that ...

Brain Injury: How Dietary Patterns Impact Long-Term Outcomes
We examined Mediterranean, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, plant-based, ketogenic, and intermittent fasting dietary patterns through publications of clinical trials and systematic reviews. While many reviews had significant positive findings, some were limited by generalizability.SUMMARY: While there is extensive literature on the immediate nutrition goals in the inpatient setting following an acute TBI exposure, there is limited literature discussing the nature of diet and nutrition in the post-acute setting. Fortunately, most individuals with TBI exposure survive their initial injury and continue into the recove...

Diabetes exacerbates inflammatory bowel disease in mice with diet-induced obesity
CONCLUSION: In obese mice, diabetes worsened clinical and pathologic outcomes of colitis via mechanisms that are reversible with treatment of hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia-induced intestinal barrier dysfunction offers a plausible mechanism linking diabetes to increased colitis severity. These findings suggest that effective diabetes management may decrease the clinical severity of IBD.PMID:37731997 | PMC:PMC10507503 | DOI:10.3748/wjg.v29.i33.4991
