Aims: The objective of this study was to determine whether vitamin D and genistein supplementation had an additive beneficial effect on levels of vitamin D and bone markers and whether this effect was mediated by genes regulating isoflavone metabolism.

Materials And Methods: We carried out a prospective study in postmenopausal women randomized to calcium and vitamin D supplementation or calcium, vitamin D, and genistein supplementation. Vitamin D, parathyroid hormone (PTH), cross-linked C-telopeptide (CTX), and procollagen 1 N-terminal (P1NP) were determined by electrochemiluminescence. Three SNPs - rs2231142 (ABCG2), rs358231 (cytosolic β-glucosidase [CBG]), and rs2273697 (ABCC2) - were determined.

Results: We included 102 women. The effects on bone remodeling were similar: rises in vitamin D were significantly associated with reductions in PTH, CTX, and P1NP. Pharmacogenomic analysis of the genotypes showed that, in AT heterozygotes of the CBG1368T>A polymorphism, CTX and P1NP were not reduced.

Conclusion: Genistein added to calcium and vitamin D supplementation had no additional effect. The supplementation of individual AT heterozygotes of the CBG1368T>A polymorphism had no effect on markers of bone remodeling.

Maternal gut microbiota composition contributes to the status of the neonatal immune system and could influence the early life higher susceptibility to viral respiratory infections. Using a novel protocol of murine maternal probiotic supplementation, we report that perinatal exposure to () or () increases the influenza A/PR8 virus (IAV) clearance in neonates. Following either supplementation, type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1) were amplified in the lymph nodes leading to an enhanced IAV antigen-experienced IFN-γ producing effector CD8 T cells in neonates and IAV-specific resident memory CD8 T cells in adulthood.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has recently emerged as a challenging metabolic disorder with a strong emphasis on its prevention and management. Polyphenols, a group of naturally occurring plant compounds, have been associated with a decreased risk of various metabolic disorders related to NAFLD. The current systematic review aims to critically assess evidence about the ameliorative effect of polyphenol supplementation on NAFLD patients.

Obesity is an important risk factor for breast cancer in women before and after menopause. Adipocytes, key mediators in the tumor microenvironment, play a pivotal role in the relationship between obesity with cancer. However, the potential of dietary components in modulating this relationship remains underexplored.

In this review, we examine the role of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Amyloid-beta (Aβ) induces damage not only extracellularly but also within the intracellular environment. Mitochondria, a principal source of free radicals, are closely associated with Aβ, as it binds to heme, thereby disrupting the normal electron flow in the respiratory chain.
