Potato Protein Isolate Stimulates Muscle Protein Synthesis at Rest and with Resistance Exercise in Young Women

aledopress

Citation ExportAbstractSkeletal muscle myofibrillar protein synthesis (MPS) increases in response to protein feeding and to resistance exercise (RE), where each stimuli acts synergistically when combined. The efficacy of plant proteins such as potato protein (PP) isolate to stimulate MPS is unknown. We aimed to determine the effects of PP ingestion on daily MPS with and… Continue reading Potato Protein Isolate Stimulates Muscle Protein Synthesis at Rest and with Resistance Exercise in Young Women

Effects of diet on the outcomes of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs): systematic review and meta-analyses informing the 2021 EULAR recommendations for lifestyle improvements in people with RMDs

aledopress

A EULAR taskforce was convened to develop recommendations for lifestyle behaviours in rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs). In this paper, the literature on the effect of diet on the progression of RMDs is reviewed. Methods Systematic reviews and meta-analyses were performed of studies related to diet and disease outcomes in seven RMDs: osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid… Continue reading Effects of diet on the outcomes of rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases (RMDs): systematic review and meta-analyses informing the 2021 EULAR recommendations for lifestyle improvements in people with RMDs

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Incident Hypertension in Multi-Racial/Ethnic Women: The Study of Women’s Health Across the Nation

aledopress

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are ubiquitous synthetic chemicals that may disrupt blood pressure controls; however, human evidence to support this hypothesis is scant. We examined the association between serum concentrations of PFAS and risks of developing hypertension. Methods:This study included 1058 midlife women initially free of hypertension from the multiracial and multiethnic SWAN (Study… Continue reading Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Incident Hypertension in Multi-Racial/Ethnic Women: The Study of Women’s Health Across the Nation

Maternal gut microbiome–induced IgG regulates neonatal gut microbiome and immunity

aledopress

Breast milk IgG adds valueAlthough the most abundant class of antibody present in breast milk is IgA, maternal IgG antibodies also get transferred into breast milk via the neonatal Fc receptor. Sanidad et al. used mouse models to investigate the capacity of breast milk IgG to protect against pathogens and promote the establishment of a… Continue reading Maternal gut microbiome–induced IgG regulates neonatal gut microbiome and immunity

Researcher: ‘We Made a Big Mistake’ on COVID-19 Vaccine

aledopress

Canadian immunologist and vaccine researcher Byram Bridle, Ph.D., has gained access to Pfizer’s biodistribution study from the Japanese regulatory agency. The research demonstrates a huge problem with all COVID-19 vaccines The assumption that vaccine developers have been working with is that the mRNA in the vaccines would primarily remain in and around the vaccination site.… Continue reading Researcher: ‘We Made a Big Mistake’ on COVID-19 Vaccine

Aspirin’s effect on kinetic parameters ofcells contributes to its role in reducingincidence of advanced colorectaladenomas, shown by a multiscalecomputational study

aledopress

Aspirin intake has been shown to lead to significant protection against colorectalcancer, for example with an up to twofold reduction in colorectal adenoma incidence rates at higherdoses. The mechanisms contributing to protection are not yet fully understood. While aspirin isan anti-inflammatory drug and can thus influence the tumor microenvironment, in vitro and in vivoexperiments have… Continue reading Aspirin’s effect on kinetic parameters ofcells contributes to its role in reducingincidence of advanced colorectaladenomas, shown by a multiscalecomputational study

Gender Dysphoria and Suicidal Ideation: Clinical Observations from a Psychiatric Emergency Service

aledopress

Adolescent gender dysphoria is increasingly common. There has been documentation of the association of gender dysphoria with numerous other psychiatric conditions as well as attempted and completed suicide. The literature is unsettled on specific risk factors for self-harm within this population. Though there are published recommendations, there appears to be a need for additional clinical… Continue reading Gender Dysphoria and Suicidal Ideation: Clinical Observations from a Psychiatric Emergency Service

Had COVID? You’ll probably make antibodies for a lifetime

aledopress

People who recover from mild COVID-19 have bone-marrow cells that can churn out antibodies for decades, although viral variants could dampen some of the protection they offer. Many people who have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 will probably make antibodies against the virus for most of their lives. So suggest researchers who have identified long-lived antibody-producing… Continue reading Had COVID? You’ll probably make antibodies for a lifetime
