Flavonoids display a broad range of structures and are responsible for the major organoleptic characteristics plant-derived foods beverages. Recent data showed their activity, in particular luteolin-7-O-glucoside (LUT-7G), reduction oxidative stress inflammatory mechanisms different physiological systems. In this paper, we tried to elucidate how LUT-7G could exert both antioxidant anti-inflammatory effects endothelial cells cultured vitro. Here, that is able inhibit STAT3 pathway, have an...
During chronic kidney disease (CKD), typical alterations in the gut microbiota are observed. The no longer plays role of main excretory organ as this function is performed by intestine. In CKD patients, an alteration intestinal permeability and a degradation protective mucous layer These changes barrier allow passage bacterial material from intestine to bloodstream through wall. This phenomenon contributes induction inflammatory state, CKD. nephropathic there increase circulation p-cresyl...
Objective: The aim of this study was to verify the effects Italian Mediterranean Diet (IMD), consisting organic versus conventional foods, on body composition, and biochemical parameters in a healthy individuals Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients, order decrease cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk factor progression renal diseases. Design: After providing written fully informed consent study, 150 Caucasian men were recruited: 100 male (mean age 44,66±13,98 years; range 30-65 years) 50 CKD...
Obesity is associated with endothelial dysfunction related to decreased NO bioavailability, increased endothelin 1 vasoconstrictor activity, and circulating ghrelin. Therefore, we tested whether exogenous ghrelin may have benefits improve the balance between in patients obesity-related metabolic syndrome. Vasoactive actions of were assessed 8 syndrome matched controls by evaluating forearm blood flow responses (strain-gauge plethysmography) intra-arterial infusion BQ-123 (endothelin A...
Obesity is a chronic disease, whose incidence alarmingly growing. It associated with metabolic abnormalities and cardiovascular complications. These complications are clustered in the syndrome (MetS) leading to high morbidity mortality. predisposes diabetic nephropathy, hypertensive nephrosclerosis, focal segmental glomerular sclerosis represents an independent risk factor for development progression of kidney disease (CKD). Albuminuria major diseases (CVDs). Microalbuminuria has been...
Several transcription factors, including the master regulator of epidermis, p63, are involved in controlling human keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Here, we report that normal keratinocytes, expression FOXM1, a member Forkhead superfamily is controlled by p63. We observe that, together with FOXM1 strongly contributes to maintenance high proliferative potential whereas its decreases during differentiation, as well replicative-induced senescence. Depletion sufficient induce...
Obesity represents one of the most complex public health challenges and has recently reached epidemic proportions. is also considered to be primarily responsible for rising prevalence metabolic syndrome, defined as coexistence in same individual several risk factors atherosclerosis, including dyslipidemia, hypertension hyperglycemia, well cancer. Additionally, presence three five (abdominal obesity, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high triglycerides, fasting glucose blood pressure)...
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming increasingly widespread in the world. Slowing its progression means to prevent uremic complications and improve quality of life patients. Currently, a low-protein diet (LPD) one tools most used renal conservative therapy but possible risk connected LPD protein-energy wasting. The aim this study evaluate correlation between malnutrition onset. We enrolled 41 CKD patients, stages IIIb/IV according K-DIGO guidelines, who followed for 6 weeks...
