The aim of the present investigation was to study the in vitro mineral dialyzability of pasta made with white and whole-grain flours obtained from two genotypes (Klein Guerrero and Baguette Premium 11) with different mineral contents. Pasta samples were made from white flour (FP), and whole grain flour from cyclonic mill (WFAP) and blade mill (WFBP). Mineral content and in vitro digestion were determined on all samples to study starch variation and mineral dialyzability. Whole-grain pasta contained significantly higher amounts of minerals than FP, since bran and embryo are richer in minerals than endosperm. In addition to the low content of mineral composition observed in FP, the dialyzability of some minerals (Cu, Fe, Mg and Zn) was higher than whole-grain pasta even when the percentage of starch hydrolyzed after intestinal digestion was higher than FP. These results can also be useful for developing wheat-based products rich in the desired minerals.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of premature death in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and vascular damage is often detected belatedly, usually evaluated by expensive and invasive techniques. CKD involves specific risk factors that lead to vascular calcification and atherosclerosis, where inflammation plays a critical role. However, there are few inflammation-related markers to predict vascular damage in CKD.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) often leads to mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBDs), which are nearly universal in patients undergoing dialysis. CKD-MBD includes abnormal calcium-phosphate metabolism, vascular and soft tissue calcification, and bone abnormalities (renal osteodystrophy [ROD]). Bone fragility in CKD occurs due to low bone mass and poor bone quality, and patients with CKD have higher fracture and mortality rates.

: Vascular calcification (VC) is a crucial risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), particularly in chronic kidney disease (CKD) populations. However, the specific relationship between VC and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains to be fully understood. The identification of new biomarkers to improve VC diagnosis and monitoring would significantly impact cardiovascular risk management in these high-risk patients.

Objective: Myeloid leukemia is a stem cell disease with high mortality due to the challenges of high-dose treatments and side effects. Innovative nanoparticle drug delivery systems are being explored to enhance efficacy and tissue-targeted therapy. This study investigates the potential of Bentonite (BNT)-based nanoparticles (NPs) as drug carriers for azacitidine (AZA) in treating THP-1 and K562 myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines, aiming to improve drug stability, bioavailability, and therapeutic efficacy while ensuring controlled release.
