Objectives: Elaidic acid, the predominant trans-fatty acid in industrially hydrogenated oils, exists on high levels in Iranian hydrogenated oils and margarines. This study was undertaken to investigate the effect of elaidic acid and its cis-counterpart oleic acid on expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on human bone marrow endothelial cells (HBMECs).
Design And Methods: HBMEC were pre-treated with TNF-alpha or LPS for induction of the adhesion molecules expression, and then treated with elaidic acid or oleic acid. Soluble and cell associated forms of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were quantified by ELISA and Western blot.
Results: Our findings indicated that oleic acid suppresses VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 expression on HBMEC near to the basal level. Conversely, elaidic acid maintained the level of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 up-regulated by TNF-alpha or LPS.
Conclusions: It is suggested that elaidic acid could keep the HBMEC at the stimulated phenotype. These findings provide further support on the detrimental effects of elaidic acid in promotion and induction of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

Objective: While earlier research has indicated that trans fatty acids (TFAs) are detrimental to cardiovascular health as well as other conditions, the purpose of this study is to look into any possible connections between trans fatty acids and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: The NHANES database provided the data for this study, covering two periods: 1999-2000 and 2009-2010. The correlation between plasma TFAs (linolelaidic acid, vaccenic acid, palmitelaidic acid, and elaidic acid) and RA was examined using weighted univariate and multivariate regression analyses as well as analysis of subgroups.

This study aims to comparatively analyze butter, ghee, and margarine fatty acid profiles and their implications for healthier fat and oil group choices. In this cross-sectional study, 60 samples from best-selling brands of butter, ghee, and margarine were randomly selected from five food chain stores in Tehran, Iran. Then, all the samples were coded, packed in cool conditions, and sent to the laboratory to determine the fatty acid profiles by using gas chromatography (GC).

Article Synopsis
- Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) supplementation can improve oocyte quality and help overcome issues in early embryo development in pigs.
- Our study analyzed various tissues (brain, liver, heart) to see how mtDNA supplementation affects metabolites and gene expression, revealing that mtDNA supplementation alters these profiles between pigs given their own DNA versus those receiving foreign (heterologous) DNA.
- Notably, different metabolites were affected in each tissue type, and the changes seem to be linked to a rebalancing of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes in embryos, leading to broader consequences on metabolism and gene expression.

Article Synopsis
- - Mushrooms are nutritious with high protein and healthy fats, and they are being researched for their health benefits and potential industrial applications, particularly their natural compounds.
- - The study explored the cytotoxic effects of different extracts from the mushroom on various cancer cell lines using various scientific assays, finding that the hexane extract was most effective against A549 cells, while methanol extract showed considerable efficacy against PC-3 cells.
- - Additionally, the methanol extract exhibited strong antioxidant activity and reduced inflammatory markers (like TNF-α and VEGF), while the hexane extract displayed notable antimicrobial properties against several pathogens.
