Saturated fatty acids trigger TLR4-mediated inflammatory response

Daniela Mayumi Usuda Prado Rocha, +4 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: A new perspective on the potential mechanism by which SFAs could modulate TLR4-induced inflammatory responses is provided, which plays a crucial role in the induction of inflammatory mediators implicated in the development and progression of many chronic diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical application of probiotics in type 2 diabetes mellitus: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study

Livia Bordalo Tonucci, +4 more
- 01 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of probiotic consumption on glycemic control, lipid profile, inflammation, oxidative stress and short chain fatty acids in Type 2 diabetes patients were investigated in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oleic acid modulation of the immune response in wound healing: a new approach for skin repair

Cristina Ribeiro de Barros Cardoso, +7 more
- 01 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: It is suggested that unsaturated fatty acids, specifically n-9, modulate the inflammation in the wound and enhance reparative response in vivo and may be a useful tool in the treatment of cutaneous wounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gut microbiota and probiotics: Focus on diabetes mellitus

Livia Bordalo Tonucci, +5 more
- 13 Apr 2017 - 
TL;DR: The hypothesis that gut microbiota plays a role in the development of diabetes indicates an important beginning, and the potential of probiotics to prevent and reduce the severity of T2DM is better observed in animal studies.

Therapeutic Administration of KM+ Lectin Protects Mice Against Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Infection via Interleukin-12 Production in a Toll-Like Receptor 2-Dependent Mechanism

Kely C. Coltri, +7 more
- 01 Aug 2008 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that jackfruit KM(+) led to protection against P. brasiliensis infection through IL-12 production, which was dependent on TLR2, which may expand its potential use as a novel immunotherapeutic molecule.
