Have you ever heard the phrase, "You are what you eat"? Of course, if you eat a donut, you will not turn into a donut - but bits and pieces of what we eat do become parts of us! In this article, we will talk about how the fatty acids in our cells can help protect us from various diseases by controlling inflammation. Specifically, we will focus on food components called omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are most abundant in seafood. We will talk about how eating foods rich in omega-3s increases the levels of omega-3s in your cell membranes and may protect against several diseases that are associated with uncontrolled inflammation.

Osteoporosis, a condition marked by the loss of bone density and mass, affects individuals of all ages. However, it becomes more prevalent and severe with aging, increasing the risk of fractures and other health complications. Recent research has highlighted a link between osteoporosis and periodontitis, a chronic gum disease, as both conditions involve excessive bone loss that can lead to significant oral health problems if untreated.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most prevalent cardiovascular diseases where serum lipoprotein oxidation plays a significant role. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) n-6 : n-3 unbalance ratio consumption, affects lipoprotein oxidation, and inflammation processes. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between n-6 : n-3 PUFA ratio intake with oxidized lipoproteins in individuals with CAD.

Spinosyns are secondary metabolites produced by known for their potent insecticidal properties and broad pesticidal spectrum. We report significant advancements in spinosyn biosynthesis achieved through a genome combination improvement strategy in . By integrating modified genome shuffling with ultraviolet mutation and multiomics analysis, we developed a high-yield spinosyn strain designated as YX2.

Donkeys are particularly at risk of hyperlipemia. Hyperlipemia is a metabolic disease caused by the mobilization of fatty acids from adipose tissue, which often impacts pregnant and lactating jennies (female donkeys) during periods of negative energy balance. This study aimed to evaluate the levels of lipids, biochemical parameters, selected antioxidant elements and oxidative stress parameters in late pregnant jennies affected by hyperlipemia.

(AMK) as an oriental medicine has been used in the treatment of threatened abortion. (AT-I) is one of the major bioactive components of AMK. This study aimed to investigate the effect of AT-I on the secretion of estradiol (E) and progesterone (P) in feline ovarian granulosa cells (FOGCs), which is necessary for pregnancy.
