Article Abstract
Background: Protein intake has been associated with the development of pre-diabetes (pre-T2D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The gut microbiota has the capacity to produce harmful metabolites derived from dietary protein. Furthermore, both the gut microbiota composition and metabolic status (e.g., insulin resistance) can be modulated by diet and ethnicity. However, to date most studies have predominantly focused on carbohydrate and fiber intake with regards to metabolic status and gut microbiota composition.
Objectives: To determine the associations between dietary protein intake, gut microbiota composition, and metabolic status in different ethnicities.
Methods: Separate cross-sectional analysis of two European cohorts (MetaCardis, = 1759; HELIUS, = 1528) including controls, patients with pre-T2D, and patients with T2D of Caucasian/non-Caucasian origin with nutritional data obtained from Food Frequency Questionnaires and gut microbiota composition.
Results: In both cohorts, animal (but not plant) protein intake was associated with pre-T2D status and T2D status after adjustment for confounders. There was no significant association between protein intake (total, animal, or plant) with either gut microbiota alpha diversity or beta diversity, regardless of ethnicity. At the species level, we identified taxonomical signatures associated with animal protein intake that overlapped in both cohorts with different abundances according to metabolic status and ethnicity.
Conclusions: Animal protein intake is associated with pre-T2D and T2D status but not with gut microbiota beta or alpha diversity, regardless of ethnicity. Gut microbial taxonomical signatures were identified, which could function as potential modulators in the association between dietary protein intake and metabolic status.

The effects of industrial processing and home cooking practices on trans-fatty acid profiles of vegetable oils.

The intake of trans-fatty acids (TFA) is strongly associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in blood. This review explores the critical factors influencing TFA formation during industrial vegetable oil processing and home cooking practices, particularly deep-frying. While hydrogenation, a major source of TFA, has been largely eliminated in developed countries, it remains unregulated in many developing countries, posing significant health risks.

Electronic address:
This research was performed to investigate protective effects of carnosic acid on growth performance, intestinal barrier, and cecal microbiota of lipopolysaccharide-challenged broilers. Three hundred 1-day-old yellow-feathered broilers (male) were allocated randomly into 5 treatments, with 6 replicates per treatment, and 10 birds per replicate cage. Birds in both the control group (CON) and the lipopolysaccharide-challenged group were provided with a basal diet, while others were fed a basal diet supplemented with 20, 40, and 60 mg/kg carnosic acid (CA20, CA40, CA60), respectively.

Eggs serve as a vital source of high-quality protein and lipids in the human diet, contributing significantly to nutritional intake; however, the relation between egg intake and health risks has been controversial. This study aimed to assess the relationship between egg intake and obesity and the effects of the various nutrients in eggs on obesity were separately investigated. This review involved searching Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar for relevant articles from 2002 to 2022.

Allergic inflammation is closely related to the activation of mast cells (MCs), which is regulated by its intracellular Ca level, but the intake and effects of the intracellular Ca remain unclear. The Ca influx is controlled by members of Ca channels, among which calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 C (Ca1.2) is the most robust.

We recently reported factors leading to different severity of ruminal pH drop in primiparous cows fed the same diet during transition and early lactation. The present study evaluates the effects of those severities on performance and several blood and balance parameters in the same 24 primiparous cows from 3 wk before calving until wk 10 in lactation. Dietary concentrate was increased for all cows from 32 before calving to 60% (DM basis) over the first wk in lactation, resulting in a diet with 40% non-fiber carbohydrates (NFC), and 14.
