Betaine supplementation mitigates intestinal damage and decreases serum bacterial endotoxin in cirrhotic rats
Publication date: June 2020Source: PharmaNutrition, Volume 12Author(s): Mohammad Mehdi Ommati, Omid Farshad, Khadijeh Mousavi, Akram Jamshidzadeh, Mohammadreza Azmoon, Sirus Heidari, Negar Azarpira, Hossein Niknahad, Reza HeidariAbstractGut barrier dysfunction and bacterial endotoxin (Lipopolysaccharide; LPS) translocation to the systemic circulation are prominent clinical challenges in cirrhotic patients. Several investigations mentioned the role of oxidative stress in this complication. In the current study, the effects of BET (0.5 and 1 % w: v, gavage) on biomarkers of oxidative stress, tissue histopathological alterati...

Prebiotics may alter bile salt hydrolase activity: Possible implications for cholesterol metabolism
In this study the ability of probiotic Lactobacilli species to deconjugate bile salts in the presence of various prebiotics was determined by measuring cholic acid release. The kinetic properties of BSH was assessed to determine the impact the prebiotics on bile salt deconjugation. When L. acidophilus NCTC 1723 was incubated with inulin (1%) there was a significant (p < 0.01) increase in cholic acid release by 0.16 nmol/min. Lactulose and lactobionic acid at 1% decreased cholic acid release to 0.2 nmol/min and 0.06 nmol/min respectively. In the presence of the pure BSH, inulin and lactulose (0-6%) altered Km ...

Honey and glycemic control: a systematic review
Publication date: Available online 23 January 2020Source: PharmaNutritionAuthor(s): Maryam Zamanian, Fatemeh Azizi-SoleimanAbstractHoney has long been reported to have curative effects for a number of diseases. The present review aims to provide the most recent findings regarding the potential role of honey in the management of glycemia. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria and were entered in the systematic review. Blood glucose or HbA1c was significantly reduced after consumption of honey in seven studies. However, blood glucose or HbA1C did not differ significantly in two studies, and significantly increased in two ...

Blood brain barrier inflammation and potential therapeutic role of phytochemicals
Publication date: Available online 9 January 2020Source: PharmaNutritionAuthor(s): Menizibeya O. WelcomeAbstractThe blood brain barrier (BBB) is a neurovascular unit that protects the brain from peripheral insults, and plays a critical role in regulating cerebral homeostasis. Data have consistently demonstrated BBB inflammation as the hallmark of several central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Unfortunately, the mechanisms that trigger BBB inflammation in different CNS disorders are not fully understood. In particular, it is not known how the BBB changes from a protective barrier to a pathological one that underlies disrupt...

Neuroinflammation in CNS diseases: molecular mechanisms and the therapeutic potential of plant derived bioactive molecules
Publication date: Available online 9 January 2020Source: PharmaNutritionAuthor(s): Menizibeya O. WelcomeAbstractOver the past decades, evidences have consistently shown that neuroinflammation is a critical underlying process in a range of CNS diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, depression, sleep disorders, and stroke. Thus prevention of neuroinflammation represents one of the most important goals in the treatment of these disorders. Unfortunately, the mechanisms of neuroinflammation in different CNS disorders are not fully understood. Here, I review recent literature data on the mechanisms of neuroinflammation...
