Background: Our studies suggest that iron-overloaded rats developed neurotoxicity and cognitive impairment (1,2). An increase in brain mitochondrial fission and brain mitophagy have been considered as one of underlying mechanisms in brain with iron-overloaded condition (3,4). Hence, a pharmacological intervention focused on preventing brain mitochondrial pathologies is required.

Background: Consuming prebiotics demonstrated therapeutic potential against obesity, as illustrated by our previous study on xylooligosaccharide (XOS), revealing that XOS reduced adiposity, diminished systemic inflammation, and restored cognitive function in obese insulin-resistant rats through the gut-brain axis. Fresh bananas at various ripening stages are being transformed into snacks, indicating potential as prebiotic-based treats enriched with fructooligosaccharide and inulin. Despite those findings, there remains a notable gap in the literature concerning the impact of these prebiotic-based snacks on brain inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and cognitive function in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese rats.

Background: There is a common agreement that Alzheimer's disease (AD) is inherently complex; otherwise, a general disagreement remains on its etiological underpinning, with numerous alternative hypotheses having been proposed. Our objective was to perform a scoping review of original manuscripts describing hypotheses and theories of AD published in past decades.
Methods: We reviewed 127 original manuscripts that fulfilled our inclusion criteria out of more than 13,807 references extracted from open databases (from inception to 14 Sept 2023).

Coprophilous species of sect. , commonly known as "snow inkcap", are widespread in pastoral areas; however, wide sampling approaches are needed to discover new taxa and to clarify the taxonomic status of the so-called "snow inkcap". Nationwide field work was conducted in China with a detailed record collected of the distribution and the animal origin of the dung.

Background And Aims: Combining probiotics and prebiotics in synbiotics may present a synergistic approach to improve type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); however, further evidence is required to establish the comparative efficacy of synbiotics versus probiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis MN-Gup (MN-Gup) and a synbiotic mixture of MN-Gup and galactooligosaccharide (MN-Gup-GOS) on glycemic control in T2DM patients and explore possible mechanisms.
