Reaction of C-(1-bromo-1-deoxy-beta-glucopyranosyl)formamide 2 with thiocyanate ions was the key step of a short synthesis of D-glucopyanosylidene-spiro-thiohydantoin 7 which proved to be a potent inhibitor of muscle and liver glycogen phosphorylases.

Background: Recently, environmental pollution has become a significant concern for human, animal, and environmental health, fitting within the "One Health" framework. Among the various environmental contaminants, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have gathered substantial attention due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, and adverse health effects. This study aimed to compare the levels of 12 PFASs in the fur, liver, and muscle of wild roe deer to evaluate the feasibility of using fur as a non-invasive biomonitoring matrix.

Excessive inorganic trace elements are added to livestock and poultry feed to meet the needs of animals, accompanied by frequent occurrence of excretion and gastrointestinal stress. Replacing inorganic trace elements with organic trace elements provides a promising solution to alleviate these problems. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the impact of replacing all inorganic trace elements (ITMs) in feed on the growth performance, meat quality, serum parameters, trace element metabolism, and gut microbiota of finishing pigs.

One pathway with the potential to impact several traditional markers of impaired function with aging is the PI3K/AKT metabolic pathway. Regulation of this pathway includes many aspects of cellular function, including protein synthesis, proliferation and survival, as well as many downstream targets, including mTOR and FOXOs.

Emerging evidence links volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as benzene to endocrine disruption and metabolic dysfunction. However, the effects of chronic environmentally relevant VOC exposures on metabolic health are still emerging.

This analysis leveraged genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics for RBC and plasma PUFAs, along with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) to estimate tissue-specific genetically predicted gene expression effects for delta-5 desaturase ( ), delta-6 desaturase ( ), and elongase ( ) on changes in RBC and plasma biomarkers.
