Gut microbiota undergoes profound alterations in alcohol cirrhosis. Microbiota-derived products, e.g., short chain fatty acids (SCFA), regulate the homeostasis of gut-liver axis. The objective was to evaluate composition and functions intestinal patients with alcohol-decompensated Fecal samples 18 healthy controls (HC) were obtained. Microbial characterized by 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, SCFA quantification performed gas chromatography (GC), metagenomic predictive profiles analyzed...
Emotional eating (EE) is food consumption in response to feelings rather than hunger. EE related unhealthy intake and abdominal obesity (AO). However, little evidence exists about the association between dietary patterns (DPs) EE−AO interaction DPs. DPs allow describing combinations that people usually eat. We analyzed of with adults (≥18 years) AO (WC ≥ 80/90 cm women/men, respectively; n = 494; 66.8% women;) or without (n 269; 74.2% women) a cross-sectional study. Principal component...
The n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) can reduce inflammatory markers and may therefore be useful in obesity management. aim of this study was to analyze the effect supplementation with PUFAs on total acid profile red blood cells (RBCs), as well biochemical markers, subjects obesity. consisted a randomized placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial involving 41 during 4-month follow-up. Individuals were randomly assigned two groups: PUFA (1.5 g fish oil) placebo sunflower oil)....
Some high-carbohydrate diets may lead to obesity and multiple metabolic disorders, including hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). This lipid abnormality is considered an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease type 2 diabetes. The sweet taste receptor TAS1R2 polymorphism (Ile191Val) has been reported be associated with carbohydrate intake. aim of this study was analyze the association gene intake HTG among population West Mexico. In a cross-sectional study, 441 unrelated subjects were...
Obesity and nutrients intake deficiencies may contribute to the clinical manifestations inflammatory processes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim of this study was assess relationship between nutritional status dietary with variables Mexican-mestizo SLE patients. A cross-sectional conducted 130 female patients, classified by 1997 American College Rheumatology (ACR) criteria; activity evaluated Mexican-Systemic Lupus Erythematosus-Disease Activity Index (Mex-SLEDAI); body mass...
<b><i>Objective: </i></b>The aim of this study was to analyze dietary &#x03C9;-6:&#x03C9;-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ratio and its association with adiposity serum adiponectin levels in a Mexican population. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> In cross-sectional study, individuals BMI ≥ 18.5 kg/m<sup>2</sup>, were classified using four methods measure adiposity. Parameters body composition measured by InBody 3.0. Diet intake...
SUMMARY During the course of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), several immune neuroendocrine changes associated with pregnancy may exert positive (amelioration) or negative (exacerbation) effects on clinical outcome. In order to shed light mechanisms underlying these responses, we performed a prospective longitudinal study in RA SLE pregnant women, including healthy women as control group. Cytokine messenger RNA (mRNA) expression assessed by quantitative...
Alcohol intake has been associated with the bitter taste receptor T2R38. TAS2R38 gene expresses two common haplotypes: PAV and AVI. It reported that AVI homozygotes consume more alcohol than heterozygotes homozygotes. The aim of this study was to determine prevalence haplotypes among Mexican-Mestizo population analyze its association intake.In a cross-sectional study, total 375 unrelated Mestizo individuals were genotyped for polymorphisms (A49P, V262A I296V) by Real-Time PCR System...
Gallstone disease (GSD) is a common chronic in the Western hemisphere, yet environmental and genetic factors may be responsible for variations prevalence of GSD among populations.To analyze relationship ApoE FABP2 polymorphisms with diet, physical activity emotional health patients from West Mexico.A total 120 370 healthy subjects were enrolled. Anthropometric, biochemical, nutritional, clinical parameters measured. genotypes assesed by PCR-RFLPs assays.ApoE E3/E4 genotype E4 allele was...
Microbial community control is crucial for maintaining homeostasis of the gut–liver axis in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Here, we show that supplementation with a mixture Mexican foodstuffs (MexMix)—Opuntia ficus indica (nopal), Theobroma cacao (cocoa) and Acheta domesticus (crickets)—enriches several beneficial taxa MASLD mice overweight/obese humans. Thus, MexMix induces an important prebiotic effect. In mice, restoration intestinal health was observed...
Obesity is associated with chronic low-grade inflammation. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) such as omega-3 (n-3), are essential in anti-inflammatory processes. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate effect a dietary intervention along supplementation 1.8 g marine n-3 PUFAs on anthropometric, biochemical, and inflammatory markers adults. An 8-week double-blind randomized clinical trial conducted diet (200 kcal/day reduction each 4 weeks based estimated basal caloric expenditure)...
Introduction. It has been reported that even with the same body mass index (BMI), there are subjects metabolically healthy or unhealthy phenotype. The main determinants of phenotype type and distribution fat, ectopic fat accumulation, genetics, lifestyle factors. Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) disengage mitochondrial respiration from ATP synthesis result in heat production, which turn is related to energy expenditure and, thus, accumulation. association UCP1 -3826A/G (rs1800592), UCP2 Ala55Val...
Background: A remarkable increase in metabolic comorbidities occur people living with HIV infection (PLWH). Supervised physical activity provides significant health benefits. Ginkgo biloba (GKB) extract has been reported to have a wide range of advantages. This study aimed examine the effects an exercise training (ET) program and GKB on PLWH. Methods: was randomized placebo-controlled double-blind study. Twenty-eight PLWH were assigned receive placebo (n=10), or statins (n=8). All patients...

Human adenovirus 36 (HAdV-36) is associated with obesity, potentially by promoting adipocyte proliferation and differentiation. Although linked to increased fat storage, HAdV-36 also correlated improved insulin sensitivity. Given its potential role in modulating adipose tissue a less inflammatory metabolic profile, impacts on pro- anti-inflammatory cytokine secretion remain unclear. Methods: This nested case-control study compared levels (IL-10, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α) between patients...
To analyze the association of CD36 polymorphism (rs1761667) with dietary intake and liver fibrosis (LF) in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients.In this study, 73 patients CHC were recruited. The genotype (G > A) was determined by a TaqMan real-time PCR system. Dietary assessment carried out using three-day food record to register daily macronutrients. Serum lipids enzymes measured dry chemistry assay. LF evaluated transient elastography (Fibroscan(®)) APRI score classified as mild (F1-F2)...
