Transcription factor-based biosensors for detection of naturally occurring phenolic acids
N Biotechnol. 2023 Sep 13:S1871-6784(23)00047-X. doi: 10.1016/j.nbt.2023.09.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPhenolic acids including hydroxybenzoic and hydroxycinnamic acids are secondary plant and fungal metabolites involved in many physiological processes offering health and dietary benefits. They are often utilised as precursors for production of value-added compounds. The limited availability of synthetic biology tools, such as whole-cell biosensors suitable for monitoring the dynamics of phenolic acids intracellularly and extracellularly, hinders the capabilities to develop high-throughput screens to study their me...

Different stimuli induce endothelial dysfunction and promote atherosclerosis through the Piezo1/YAP signaling axis
Arch Biochem Biophys. 2023 Sep 14;747:109755. doi: 10.1016/j.abb.2023.109755. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTVascular endothelial dysfunction is the initial step in atherosclerosis (AS). AS tends to occur at vascular bifurcations and curves, and endothelial cells(ECs) are highly susceptible to injury due to mechanical forces induced by disturbed flow (DF) with inconsistent blood flow directions. However, the pathogenesis of endothelial cell dysfunction in AS remains unclear and needs further study. Here, we found that Piezo1 expression was significantly increased in DF- and oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)-treated H...

Comorbidity between major depressive disorder and physical diseases: a comprehensive review of epidemiology, mechanisms and management
World Psychiatry. 2023 Oct;22(3):366-387. doi: 10.1002/wps.21110.ABSTRACTPopulations with common physical diseases - such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders - experience substantially higher rates of major depressive disorder (MDD) than the general population. On the other hand, people living with MDD have a greater risk for many physical diseases. This high level of comorbidity is associated with worse outcomes, reduced adherence to treatment, increased mortality, and greater health care utilization and costs. Comorbidity can also result in a range of clinical challenges, such as a more com...

Lead, Cadmium, and Arsenic in Raw Milk Produced in the Vicinity of a Mini Mineral Concentrator in the Central Andes and Health Risk
This study evaluated the potential risk to human health from lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and arsenic (As) from the consumption of milk produced in an area of the Central Andes valley near a mini mineral concentrator by estimating the weekly intake (WI), dietary risk quotient (DRC), hazard quotient (THQ), and hazard index (HI) for the Peruvian population aged 2 to 85 years, in three scenarios of milk consumption by age (minimum, average, and maximum). Toxic element quantification was performed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry following standardized procedures. The mean amount ± standard deviation of Pb, Cd, and As in s...

Boosting thermophilic anaerobic digestion with conductive materials: Current outlook and future prospects
Chemosphere. 2023 Sep 13:140175. doi: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140175. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThermophilic anaerobic digestion (TAD) can provide superior process kinetics, higher methane yields, and more pathogen destruction than mesophilic anaerobic digestion (MAD). However, the broader application of TAD is still very limited, mainly due to process instabilities such as the accumulation of volatile fatty acids and ammonia inhibition in the digesters. An emerging technique to overcome the process disturbances in TAD and enhance the methane production rate is to add conductive materials (CMs) to the digester. Rece...

Energy expenditure deficits drive obesity in a mouse model of Alstr öm syndrome
CONCLUSIONS: Either loss of ALMS1 causes a developmental delay in the mechanisms controlling early life EE or activation of compensatory mechanisms occurs after obesity is established in AS. Future studies will determine how ALMS1 modulates EE and how sex moderates this process.PMID:37712194 | DOI:10.1002/oby.23877

A high fat, high sugar diet induces hepatic Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha promoter hypermethylation in male Wistar rats
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2023 Sep 7;680:25-33. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2023.09.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPreviously we reported that a high fat, high sugar (HFHS) diet induced adiposity, hyperinsulinaemia, hyperleptinaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia and increased liver mass in male Wistar rats. In the present study, the mechanisms underlying the increased liver mass were further elucidated by assessing hepatic lipid accumulation and the expression and methylation status of key metabolic genes using histology, quantitative real-time PCR and pyrosequencing, respectively. The HFHS diet induced hepatic steatosis, increased...

Promoting plant-based eating in meat-centric meal contexts: a field study
CONCLUSIONS: A short-term, theory-driven, operationally feasible intervention was effective in promoting increased plant-based meal choices in a collective meal context. Nevertheless, these changes were not entirely sustained over time. Future studies could test whether prolonged or more transformative interventions are necessary to unlock entrenched food practices more effectively in meat-centric collective meal contexts.PMID:37712383 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023001763

Enhancing stability of liposomes using high molecular weight chitosan to promote antioxidative stress effects and lipid-lowering activity of encapsulated lutein in vivo and in vitro
Int J Biol Macromol. 2023 Sep 13:126564. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126564. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLutein is an antioxidant with multiple beneficial functions. However, its therapeutic potential is hampered by its low water solubility and bioavailability. The goal of this study is to compare the stability of lutein-loaded liposomes (Lu-lip) and low (LC)/high molecular weight (HC) chitosan-coated Lu-lip, along with their antioxidant capacity using H2O2-induced HepG2 cells and their lipid-lowering activity using high-fat diet mice. Both LC and HC reduced the lutein degradation rate by 17.5 % and 26.72 % in a challen...
