Distribution of trans ‐resveratrol and its metabolites after acute or sustained administration in mouse heart, brain, and liver
Conclusions: Our results show notable differences between acute and sustained administration of trans‐resveratrol and distribution of trans‐resveratrol and its metabolites in mouse heart, brain, and liver. The results suggest a strategy for development of galenic forms of resveratrol.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved (Source: Nahrung / Food)

Advanced glycation end products stimulate gene expression of fibroblast growth factor 23
ConclusionsSource of AGEs induce the transcription of Fgf23 in UMR cells. At least in part, the effect is mediated through up‐regulation of NFκB and subsequent SOCE. AGE‐induced FGF23 production may contribute to increased FGF23 serum levels observed in chronic disease.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved (Source: Nahrung / Food)

Mediterranean diet –gene interactions: A targeted metabolomics study in Greek‐Cypriot women
ConclusionSerum levels of flavin mononucleotide and 5‐MTHF were shown to be influenced by interactions between GSTM1 deletion or MTHFR (rs1801133) polymorphisms and a dietary pattern, characteristic of MD. The effect of the interactions between polymorphisms and Mediterranean diet adherence on the levels of specific metabolites is studied. The levels of the metabolites are measured in the serum of 564 Greek‐Cypriot breast cancer controls. Significant interactions between GSTM1 (where GST is glutathione S‐transferase) deletion or MTHFR (rs1801133) polymorphisms and Mediterranean diet are shown to affect levels of fla...

Availability and dose response of phytophenols from a wheat bran rich cereal product in healthy human volunteers
ConclusionAnalysis of the systemic metabolomes demonstrated that a wide range of phytophenols were absorbed/excreted (43 metabolites) within 5 h of consumption. These included 16 of the 21 major parent compounds identified in the intervention product and several of these were also found to be significantly increased in the colon. Not all of the metabolites were increased with the higher dose, suggesting some limitation in absorption due to intrinsic factors and/or the food matrix. Many compounds identified (e.g. ferulic acid and major metabolites) exhibit anti‐inflammatory activity and impact on redox pathways. The combi...

Defining genetic and chemical diversity in wheat grain by 1H ‐NMR spectroscopy of polar metabolites
Conclusionshigh throughput 1H‐NMR is an excellent tool to compare the extent of genetic diversity within and between wheat species, and to quantify specific components (including glycine betaine, choline and asparagine) in individual genotypes. It can also be used to monitor changes in composition related environmental factors and to support comparisons of the substantial equivalence of transgenic lines.This article is protected by copyright.

A functional pseudogene, NMRAL2P, is regulated by Nrf2 and serves as a coactivator of NQO1 in sulforaphane ‐treated colon cancer cells
ConclusionNMRAL2P is the first functional pseudogene to be identified both as a direct transcriptional target of Nrf2, and as a downstream regulator of Nrf2‐dependent NQO1 induction. Further studies are warranted on NMRAL2P‐Nrf2 crosstalk and the associated mechanisms of gene regulation. NmrA‐like redox sensor 2 (NMRAL2P) is a novel functional pseudogene, the first to be identified both as a direct transcriptional target of Nrf2, and as a downstream coregulator of Nrf2‐dependent gene activation in response to sulforaphane treatment.

Chicory inulin ameliorates type 2 diabetes mellitus and suppresses JNK and MAPK pathways in vivo and in vitro
ConclusionOur study demonstrates that chicory inulin, as a nutritional supplement, may be beneficial for the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and the metabolism‐modulatory effect seems to be related to the inhibition of JNK and P38 MAPK pathways.This article is protected by copyright.

A low ‐protein diet induces body weight loss and browning of subcutaneous white adipose tissue through enhanced expression of hepatic Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 (FGF21)
Conclusions: Our results reinforce the involvement of FGF21 in coordinating energy homeostasis under a range of nutritional conditions. Moreover, here we describe an approach to increase the endogenous production of FGF21, which if demonstrated functional in humans, could generate a treatment for obesity.This article is protected by copyright.
