Bifidobacterium longum with Fructo-Oligosaccharides in Patients with Non Alcoholic Steatohepatitis
Michele Malaguarnera,Marco Vacante,Tijana Antic,Maria Giordano,Giuseppe Chisari,Rosaria Acquaviva,Silvana Mastrojeni,Giulia Malaguarnera,Antonio Mistretta,Giovanni Li Volti,Fabio Galvano +10 more
TL;DR: Bifidobacterium longum with Fos and lifestyle modification, when compared to lifestyle modification alone, significantly reduces TNF-α, CRP, serum AST levels, HOMA-IR, serum endotoxin, steatosis, and the NASH activity index.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyanidin-3-O-β-Glucoside and Protocatechuic Acid Exert Insulin-Like Effects by Upregulating PPARγ Activity in Human Omental Adipocytes
Beatrice Scazzocchio,Rosaria Varì,Carmelina Filesi,Massimo D'Archivio,Carmela Santangelo,Claudio Giovannini,Annunziata Iacovelli,Gianfranco Silecchia,Giovanni Li Volti,Fabio Galvano,Roberta Masella +10 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that C3G and PCA might exert insulin-like activities by PPARγ activation, evidencing a causal relationship between this transcription factor and adiponectin and GLUT4 upregulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
L-carnitine supplementation to diet: a new tool in treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis--a randomized and controlled clinical trial.
Mariano Malaguarnera,Maria Pia Gargante,Cristina Russo,Tijana Antic,Marco Vacante,Michele Malaguarnera,Teresio Avitabile,Giovanni Li Volti,Fabio Galvano +8 more
TL;DR: L-carnitine supplementation to diet is useful for reducing TNF-α and CRP, and for improving liver function, glucose plasma level, lipid profile, HOMA-IR, and histological manifestations of NASH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inherited Apolipoprotein A-V Deficiency in Severe Hypertriglyceridemia
Claudio Priore Oliva,Livia Pisciotta,Giovanni Li Volti,Maria Paola Sambataro,Alfredo Cantafora,A. Bellocchio,Alberico L. Catapano,Patrizia Tarugi,Stefano Bertolini,Sebastiano Calandra +9 more
TL;DR: As predicted from animal studies, apoA-V deficiency is associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia in humans, and this observation suggests that apo A-V regulates the secretion and/or catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coffee components and cardiovascular risk: beneficial and detrimental effects
Justyna Godos,Francesca Romana Pluchinotta,Stefano Marventano,Silvio Buscemi,Giovanni Li Volti,Fabio Galvano,Giuseppe Grosso +6 more
TL;DR: The available information about coffee compounds and their mechanism of action is reviewed and benefits and risks for cardiovascular system associated with coffee consumption will be discussed.
