S-Homocysteinylation effects on transthyretin: Worsening of cardiomyopathy onset
ConclusionsOur study demonstrated that S-homocysteinylation of the L55P-TTR mutant impairs protein stability, favouring the appearance of toxic monomers. Interestingly, S-homocysteinylation affected only mutant, not wt-TTR. Moreover, we also show that assemblies of S-homocysteinylated L55P-TTR impair cardiomyocytes functional parameters.General significanceOur study offers new insights on the negative impact of S-homocysteinylation on L55P-TTR stability, whose aggregation is considered the causative agent of a form of early-onset familial amyloid polyneuropathy and cardiomyopathy. Our results suggest that high homocysteine...

How old am I really?
Telomeres are repetitive nucleotides sequences localized to the ends of each individual chromosome. They are replicated during each cellular division, but with each cell cycle they become progressively shorter. The problem is short telomeres are associated with dysregulation of cellular events such as senescence or cell death. The shortening process is accelerated by exposure to stress, smoking, obesity, lack of exercise, and poor diet. Many refer to this process as one of our “biological clocks.” In long-term studies, shortened telomeres are associated with adverse health outcomes including atherosclerosis, stroke, and Type 2 diabetes.

Carbohydrate Quality, Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load and Cardiometabolic Risks in the US, Europe and Asia: A Dose-Response Meta-Analysis
Despite the proven evidence of high glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) diets to increase cardiometabolic risks, knowledge about the meta-evidence for carbohydrate quality within world geographic regions is limited. We conducted a meta-analysis to synthesize the evidence of GI/GL studies and carbohydrate quality, gathering additional exposures for carbohydrate, high glycemic carbohydrate, total dietary fiber, and cereal fiber and risks for type 2 diabetes (T2DM), coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and mortality, grouped into the US, Europe, and Asia.

Carbohydrate Quality, Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load and Cardiometabolic Risks in the US, Europe and Asia: A Dose-Response Meta-Analysis
ConclusionsOverweight/obese females can shift their carbohydrate intake for higher cereal fiber to decrease T2DM risk, but GL may cancel-out this effect.

Use of a bioengineered antioxidant in mouse models of metabolic syndrome.
Conclusions: PEG-HCC can improve some parameters of disease in these models and this may be due to a resulting increase in peripheral insulin sensitivity. However, additional studies are needed to elucidate how PEG-HCCs are producing these effects. PMID: 31937152 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Dulaglutide: A Review in Type 2 Diabetes
AbstractSubcutaneous dulaglutide (Trulicity®) is a once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist that is approved in numerous countries as an adjunct to diet and exercise for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). In the clinical trial and real-world settings, once-weekly subcutaneous dulaglutide, as monotherapy or add-on therapy to other antihyperglycaemic agents (including oral antihyperglycaemic drugs and insulin), was an effective and generally well tolerated treatment in adults with inadequately controlled T2D, including in high-risk patients [e.g. obese and elderly patients, those with stage 3 or...

Skipping breakfast before and during early pregnancy and incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus: the Japan Environment and Children's Study.

Greater macrovascular and microvascular morbidity from type 2 diabetes in Northern compared with Southern China: a cross ‐sectional study
ConclusionsMore macrovascular and microvascular complications were found in Northern compared to Southern patients, and the largest difference also appeared in the younger age groups under 55, which may be meaningful to a screening and treatment strategy according to geographic differences.

Our Diets Are Changing Because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Is It for the Better?
The coronavirus pandemic has changed a lot about modern American life: how we work, socialize, and even how we eat. Dining out is a distant memory. But nutritionally, people weren’t exactly thriving in pre-pandemic America. “Before COVID-19 came along, it was increasingly clear that the diet quality and nutritional status of Americans was terrible,” says Dr. Walter Willett, professor of epidemiology and nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. More than 40% of U.S. adults are obese. After years of declines, heart disease death rates are on the rise again. So are rates of obesity-linked canc...

Featured Review: Taxation of the fat content of foods for reducing their consumption and preventing obesity or other adverse health outcomes
ConclusionsWe did not find enough reliable evidence to find out whether a tax on the fat content of foods resulted in people eating less fat, or less saturated fat.We did not find any evidence about how a tax on the fat content of foods affected obesity or overweight.The results of our review will change when further evidence becomes available.Discussing the findings of this review, lead author Stefan Lhachimi said, “A tax on saturated fats could be in principle a good approach to reduce the consumption of so-called junk foods, a group of food products which is fiendishly tricky to define in legal terms. By taxing a main...

Pioglitazone for prevention or delay of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its associated complications in people at risk for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.
CONCLUSIONS: Pioglitazone reduced or delayed the development of T2DM in people at increased risk of T2DM compared with placebo (low-certainty evidence) and compared with no intervention (moderate-certainty evidence). It is unclear whether the effect of pioglitazone is sustained once discontinued. Pioglitazone compared with metformin neither showed advantage nor disadvantage regarding the development of T2DM in people at increased risk (low-certainty evidence). The data and reporting of all-cause mortality, SAEs, micro- and macrovascular complications were generally sparse. None of the included studies reported on QoL or so...
