Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is an extremely complex disease. A non-balanced diet such as high-fat (HFD) induces metabolic dysfunction that could modify redox homeostasis. We here aimed at exploring homeostasis in male Wistar rats, following 8 weeks of HFD, correlating the eventual modification selected biomarkers be associated with clinical manifestations MetS. Therefore, we parameters relative to both glucose tolerance and lipid altered metabolism, but also oxidative pattern. assessed some...
Dysbiosis, influenced by poor diet or stress, is associated with various systemic diseases. Probiotic supplements are recognized for stabilizing gut microbiota and alleviating gastrointestinal issues, like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This study focused on the tryptophan pathways, which important regulation of serotonin levels, host physiology behavior regulation.
Probiotics have shown the potential to counteract loss of muscle mass, reduce physical fatigue, and mitigate inflammatory response following intense exercise, although mechanisms by which they work are not very clear. The objective this review is describe main harmful effects alcohol on skeletal provide important strategies based use probiotics. excessive consumption a worldwide problem has been be crucial in progression alcoholic liver disease (ALD), for which, date, only therapy available...
Background/Objectives: Recent studies have highlighted the role of gut-muscle axis, suggesting that modulation gut microbiota may indirectly benefit skeletal muscle. This study aimed to evaluate effects Lactobacillus fermentum (L. fermentum) supplementation in a model muscle atrophy induced by chronic ethanol (EtOH) intake, focusing on inflammatory and antioxidant mechanisms. Methods: Sixty 12-month-old female Balb/c mice were divided randomly into three groups (n = 20/group): (1) Ethanol...
Tomato fruits defined as "golden" refer to a food product harvested at an incomplete ripening stage with respect red tomatoes full maturation. The aim of this study is explore the putative influence "golden tomato" (GT) on Metabolic Syndrome (MetS), especially focusing effects redox homeostasis. Firstly, differential chemical properties GT matrix were characterized in terms phytonutrient composition and antioxidant capacities tomato (RT). Later, we assessed biochemical, nutraceutical...
