Improved Assessment of Hepatic Steatosis in Humans Using Multi-Parametric Quantitative Ultrasound

TL;DR: An improved, multi-parametric QUS-based approach to diagnose NAFLD and quantify hepatic fat, with MRI-PDFF as the reference standard is developed, and it is suggested that multi- Parameter QUS can improve the quantification of hepatic steatosis and diagnosis of NAFLd.
Journal ArticleDOI

α-Tocopherol, but Not γ-Tocopherol, Attenuates the Expression of Selective Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha-Induced Genes in Primary Human Aortic Cell Lines

TL;DR: It is suggested that under stimulated conditions, αT modestly modulates the expression of selective genes and that αT may be more anti-inflammatory than γT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of sodium bicarbonate blanch on the retention of micronutrients in soy beverage

TL;DR: In this paper, a soy beverage was prepared with a tap water or 0.25% sodium bicarbonate blanch and the retentions of vitamins B1, B6, niacin, pantothenic acid, folacin and amino acids lysine, methionine and tryptophan were determined from samples taken after various process steps.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tomatoes, Lycopene, and Prostate Cancer: What Have We Learned from Experimental Models?

TL;DR: Although it is clear that tomatoes and lycopene have anti-prostate cancer activity in rodent models, major knowledge gaps remain in understanding dose-response relationships and molecular mechanisms of action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infant Rhesus Macaque Brain α-Tocopherol Stereoisomer Profile Is Differentially Impacted by the Source of α-Tocopherol in Infant Formula

TL;DR: Consumption of infant formulas with natural (NAT-F) αT compared with synthetic (SYN-F), differentially impacted brain αT stereoisomer profiles in infant rhesus macaques, and αT profiles were not explained by α-TTP mRNA or protein expression.
