In obesity condition the adipose tissue undergoes molecular and cellular alterations affecting systemic metabolism via the release of different pro-inflammatory mediators. Nut-derived polyphenols and fatty acids have a documented role in the modulation of energy metabolism and antiobesity effect. We investigate the …

Selenium-Biofortified Strawberries Improve Glucose Homeostasis and Hepatic Function: A 30-Day Randomized Controlled Trial in Healthy Adults

Sonya Vasto, Luigi Di Rosa, Vincenzo Ferrantelli, Antonino Salvatore Fiore et autres

Background: Selenium is an essential trace element for humans that plays a key role in glucose homeostasis and hepatic function. Biofortification is a sustainable agricultural technique able to increase micronutrients and reduce pesticides in crops. Purpose: The present study aimed to examine …

Controlled release and enhanced bioavailability of spray-dried microparticles loaded with liposoluble vitamins and natural flavonoids quercetin and fisetin

Maria Grazia Zizzo, Francesca Terracina, Carla Buzzanca, Sergio Sciré et autres

Lipophilic bioactive compounds often exhibit poor aqueous solubility, chemical instability and low intestinal absorption, limiting their effectiveness in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical formulations. This study aimed to develop gastro-resistant spray-dried microparticles (MPs) capable of encapsulating and modulating the release of selected liposoluble molecules …
