Novel inhibitory effect of Omega-3 fatty acids regulating pancreatic cancer progression.

Pancreatic cancer is a devastating malignancy in great need of new and more effective treatment approaches. In recent years, studies have indicated that nutritional interventions, particularly nutraceuticals, may provide novel avenues to modulate cancer progression. Here, our study characterizes the impact of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), as a nutraceutical intervention in pancreatic cancer using a genetically engineered mouse model driven by KrasG12D and Trp53R172H.

Self-regulation training generalizability using the regulation of craving task. An fMRI study.

Individual differences in reward salience may relate to the difficulty in regulating the effects of multiple substances (e.g., nicotine and food).

The Effects of Chia Defatted Flour as a Nutritional Supplement in C57BL/6 Mice Fed a Low-Quality Diet.

Today, consumption of diets rich in saturated fat and fructose, associated with a variety of metabolic deregulations, has increased. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation with a residue of defatted chia seed on a diet with low nutritional quality. To do this, C57BL/6 male mice were fed with the Control (C), Low-Nutritional-Quality (LNQ), or supplemented-with-chia-defatted-flour (LNQ+C) diets.
