This document presents the choice and the optimization of a supervised classification algorithm, applied on plantar pressure measurements. Its purpose is to classify, based on pressure data coming from a smart insole, whether the user has risks of foot ulc ...
Women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a disorder characterised by raised serum bile acids, are at increased risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus and have impaired glucose tolerance whilst cholestatic. FXR and TGR5 are modulato ...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) unfolded protein response (UPR(er)) pathway plays an important role in helping pancreatic β cells to adapt their cellular responses to environmental cues and metabolic stress. Although altered UPR(er) gene expression appears ...
Diabetes impacts on brain metabolism, structure, and function. Alterations in brain metabolism have been observed in obesity and diabetes models induced by exposure to diets rich in saturated fat and/or sugar and have been linked to memory impairment. Howe ...
Milk is a complex biological fluid composed mainly of water, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and diverse bioactive factors. Human milk represents a unique tailored source of nutrients that adapts during lactation to the specific needs of the developing in ...
Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) is a high-mortality pathology affecting freshwater salmonid populations in Europe and North America. Its causative agent, the myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, has a complex life-cycle exploiting freshwater bryozoan ...
NAD+ has emerged as a central metabolic node and an important co-substrate for the activity of various enzymes, including the protein deacetylase SIRT1. Different strategies to increase NAD+ bioavailability have been shown to boost SIRT1 activity, which re ...
Asperuloside (ASP) is an iridoid glycoside that is extracted from Eucommia leaves. Eucommia is used in traditional Chinese medicine and has a long history of benefits on health and longevity. Here, we investigated the impact of ASP on obesity-related metab ...
We present in this work, first time in literature, a voltammetric label-free biosensor for detection of alpha lactalbumin (alpha-LB) in meal samples. Food allergy concern necessitates strict regulations in food labelling and innovative monitoring strategie ...
Bile acids are well-recognized stimuli of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion. This action has been attributed to activation of the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor GPBAR1 (TGR5), although other potential bile acid sensors include the nuclear far ...
