Helicobacter pylori gastritis affects gastric pH and concentrations of ascorbic acid, hydrogen peroxide, hypochlorite, ammonia and urea, pepsin, and mucin. First, the separate effects of each of these altered factors on oxidation of pork were investigated during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Lipid and protein oxidation increased (range 23-48%) in duodenal digests of pork previously exposed to elevated (6.1) versus normal acidic stomach pH (2.3 to 3.5) conditions. Salivary nitrite reduced the formation of lipid and protein oxidation products (range 14-20%) under normal acidic but not elevated stomach pH conditions. Higher amounts of hydrogen peroxide and lower amounts of ascorbic acid decreased concentrations of lipid oxidation products in duodenal pork digests, whereas ammonia slightly stimulated protein oxidation during digestion. Second, two H. pylori gastritis-duodenal digestion models were installed using a set of altered compound concentrations at normal acidic or elevated stomach pH. The elevated pH-gastritis-duodenal digestion model increased pork protein oxidation compared with the normal pH-gastritis and the normal digestion model (14.3 ± 2.1 vs 8.2 ± 1.0 nmol DNPH/mg protein, P < 0.001). Compared with the other models, protein oxidation was also increased when nitrite-cured pork was exposed to the elevated pH-gastritis-duodenal digestion model (10.8 ± 1.4 vs 5.9 ± 0.8 nmol DNPH/mg protein, P < 0.001), but no significant effect of the model was observed when the pork was seasoned with herbs. Lipid oxidation was not or was marginally affected by the installed model.

Background: The inheritance of the short allele, encoding the serotonin transporter (SERT) in humans, increases susceptibility to neuropsychiatric and metabolic disorders, with aging and female sex further exacerbating these conditions. Both central and peripheral mechanisms of the compromised serotonin (5-HT) system play crucial roles in this context. Previous studies on SERT-deficient (Sert) mice, which model human SERT deficiency, have demonstrated emotional and metabolic disturbances, exacerbated by exposure to a high-fat Western diet (WD).

Background: In this study, we prepared a porous gradient scaffold with hydroxyapatite microtubules (HAMT) and chitosan (CHS) and investigated osteogenesis induced by these scaffolds.

Methods: The arrangement of wax balls in the mold can control the size and distribution of the pores of the scaffold, and form an interconnected gradient pore structure. The scaffolds were systematically evaluated and for biocompatibility, biological activity, and regulatory mechanisms.

Background: Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and its related vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play a significant role in atherosclerosis and their targeting is a strategic approach that may affect multiple pathways influencing disease progression. This study aimed to perform a systematic review to reveal current evidence on the role of HIF-1α and VEGF immunophenotypes with other prognostic markers as potential biomarkers of atherosclerosis prognosis and treatment efficacy.

Methods: We performed a systematic review of the current literature to explore the role of HIF-1α and VEGF protein expression along with the relation to the prognosis and therapeutic strategies of atherosclerosis.

Background: Androgenic anabolic steroids (AASs) are synthetic drugs structurally related to testosterone, with the ability to bind to androgen receptors. Their uncontrolled use by professional and recreational sportspeople is a widespread problem. AAS abuse is correlated with severe damage to the cardiovascular system, including changes in homeostasis and coagulation disorders.
