An adult male common genet (Genetta genetta) was examined for an onset of severe dyspnea. Physical examination findings included tachypnea and increased inspiratory sounds. Survey radiographs showed consolidation of both lung lobes, and a bronchoalveolar lavage sample contained cholesterol crystals. The genet was treated with a glucocorticoid but died overnight. Gross necropsy findings included consolidated lungs, multiple pale foci in the heart, and an atrophic right kidney. The histologic diagnosis was metastatic adenocarcinoma with associated endogenous lipid pneumonia.

Palmitoylethanolamide in Postmenopausal Metabolic Syndrome: Current Evidence and Clinical Perspectives.
Nutrients

Menopause leads to a decline in estrogen levels, resulting in significant metabolic alterations that increase the risk of developing metabolic syndrome-a cluster of conditions including central obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Traditional interventions such as hormone replacement therapy carry potential adverse effects, and lifestyle modifications alone may not suffice for all women. This review explores the potential role of palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), an endogenous fatty acid amide, in managing metabolic syndrome during the postmenopausal period.

Background: Circadian rhythms are driven by the biological clock, an endogenous oscillator that generates approximately 24 h cycles in mammals. The circadian regulation of the lipid metabolism plays a crucial role in overall metabolic health. An analysis of the correlation between the skin's physiological parameters and skin lipids can provide a better insight into the rhythmic changes in skin condition.

UVA radiation and visible light can lead to indirect damage to DNA, proteins, and lipids through photosensitized reactions, where a molecule undergoes a photochemical alteration by the initial absorption of radiation by another molecular entity called photosensitizer (Sens). The chemical changes undergone by biomolecules in photosensitized reactions can trigger important adverse processes such as photoallergy, phototoxicity, and skin cancer, among others. Despite the knowledge about photosensitized reactions and the fact that many endogenous compounds present in the skin can act as Sens, UVA, and visible light are widely used in several devices for domestic and general use without a thorough evaluation of their possible harmful effects; one prominent example is UV-nail polish dryers.

Numerous studies indicate that Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill (SC) has anti-type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) effects, and its processed products are commonly used in clinical practice. However, limited reports exist on the mechanisms of polysaccharides from its vinegar products and their role in T2DM.
