The gut serves as the main site for nutrient digestion and absorption. Simultaneously, it functions as the body’s largest immune organ, playing a dual role in sustaining physiological equilibrium and offering immunological defense against intes...

The ability of organisms to regulate the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), manage pro-oxidant activity, and make use of redox pathways has significantly influenced their evolution [...]

Prebiotic oligosaccharides have attracted significant interest in dermatology and skin health due to their ability to modulate the skin microbiome and microbiota–host interactions. This review offers a novel dual perspective, systematically exa...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of a novel antioxidant formulation (RE:PAIR, RP-25) containing CoQ10, alpha-lipoic acid, and Chaga extract on mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. To explore the activity of the...

Bee-collected pollen (BCP) can serve as an excellent enhancer of functional food bioactivity, particularly when it is fermented. The aim of this study was to prepare a novel kombucha-based beverage (KPE) enriched with fermented monofloral rapeseed (B...

There is a growing interest in using agri-food by-products and a demand for natural substances that might help maintain healthy honey bee colonies. We investigated a by-product of the wine industry, a grape pomace (GP) of the autochthonous Prokupac g...

Zinc (Zn) is a crucial trace element in vertebrates, fulfilling a range of physiological functions, whose metabolism and homeostasis are manipulated by Zn transporter proteins. SUMOylation, a reversible post-translational modification (PTM), extensiv...

Granulosa cell (GC) dysfunction contributes to diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). We collected GC and follicular fluid samples from the patients of normal ovarian reserve (NOR) and DOR. RNA-seq of GCs showed that cholesterol/sterol metabolism and bios...

Cardiac adaptations induced by aerobic exercise have been shown to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, and the autonomic nervous system is closely associated with the development of cardiovascular disease. Aerobic exercise intervention has bee...

Nitric oxide (NO) is a well-known member of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) family. The extent of its concentration influences whether it produces beneficial physiological effects or harmful toxic reactions. In a blood system, NO is generally produ...
