This study was aimed to investigate the effect of Guisangyou tea (GSY tea) in improving abnormal lipid metabolism in mice with obesity induced by a high-fat diet (HFD). The results showed that intervention of the water extract of GSY tea (WE) decreased serum levels of lipids, and positively regulated the related antioxidant enzyme activities and the inflammatory factors in the serum and liver. In the liver, the mRNA and protein expression levels of sterol regulatory element-binding proteins-1 (SREBP-1), stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD-1), fatty acid synthase (FASN), and acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) related to lipid synthesis were downregulated, and the mRNA and protein expression levels of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and small heterodimer partner (SHP) related to bile acid production were upregulated. The results demonstrate that GSY tea can improve abnormal lipid metabolism in obese mice by improving the body's antioxidant capacity, regulating the inflammatory state, and reducing the synthesis of lipids and increasing the production of bile acids. GSY tea can be processed and utilized as a safe and effective resource for improving abnormal lipid metabolism.

Background: Indole-3-carbinol (I3C) is a compound derived from Cruciferous vegetables. We aim to ascertain whether I3C mediates the relations between mouse gut microbiota, intestinal barrier function, and metabolism to treat obesity in mice.
Methods: The experimental analyses focused on the changes in lipid distribution, inflammatory cytokines, glucose tolerance, gut microbiota composition, and serum metabolomics of 60 C57BL/6N mice.
Glial cells improve Parkinson's disease by modulating neuronal function and regulating neuronal ferroptosis.

The main characteristics of Parkinson's disease (PD) are the loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons and abnormal aggregation of cytosolic proteins. However, the exact pathogenesis of PD remains unclear, with ferroptosis emerging as one of the key factors driven by iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation. Glial cells, including microglia, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes, serve as supportive cells in the central nervous system (CNS), but their abnormal activation can lead to DA neuron death and ferroptosis.

Purpose: Dyslipidemia has been linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes in observational studies. This study aimed to explore how variations in lipid levels during the first trimester might influence early pregnancy loss (EPL).
Methods: Blood samples from pregnant women were analyzed to examine the relationship between EPL and lipid metabolism using logistic regression and restricted cubic splines (RCS).

To investigate the prevalence of baseline dyslipidemia in HIV-infected people before starting antiviral therapy (ART) in China. The data were collected from HIV/AIDS ART database of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. A national sample of HIV- infected people who initiated ART from 2018 to 2023 was used to collect baseline information, including sociodemographic characteristics and laboratory test results.
