Abstract

We compared the effects of three persimmon cultivars, one nonastringent-type fruit (Fuyu) and two astringent-type fruits (Hiratanenashi and Hachiya), on the lipid and glucose metabolism of high-fat diet-fed mice. Persimmon samples prepared from young fruits of the three cultivars contained around 80% dietary fiber and differed in their bile acid-binding abilities and tannin contents. C57BL/6J mice were fed a modified AIN76 high-fat diet supplemented with 2% of each persimmon sample instead of cellulose for 10 wk. All cultivars significantly accelerated fecal bile acid secretion, depending on the bile acid-binding ability of the cultivars. Hiratanenashi and Hachiya, the cultivars with a strong bile acid-binding ability, prevented any increase in fasting blood glucose and plasma nonesterified fatty acid levels. Hachiya, the cultivar with the highest tannin content, also tended to prevent an increase in plasma non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. However, Fuyu, the cultivar with the lowest bile acid-binding ability and tannin content, had no effect on lipid or glucose metabolism. These effects linked to expression of the genes related to lipid and energy metabolism, including the cytochrome P450 7A1 gene in the liver a...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
