Cold induces brain region-selective cell activity-dependent lipid metabolism by Hyeonyoung Min, Yale Y Yang, Yunlei Yang

“…It is well recognized that cold acclimations enhance adipocyte functions, including white adipose tissue lipid lipolysis and beiging, and brown adipose tissue thermogenesis in mammals. However, it remains unclear whether and how lipid metabolism in the brain is also under the control of ambient temperature. …”

Glucoraphanin conversion into sulforaphane and related compounds by gut microbiota by Tetiana R. Dmytriv, Tetiana R. Dmytriv, Oleh Lushchak, Oleh Lushchak, Volodymyr I. Lushchak, Volodymyr I. Lushchak

“…Sulforaphane is formed by the hydrolysis of glucoraphanin by a plant enzyme called myrosinase, which is inactivated in the stomach of mammals. Since the latter do not have enzymes possessing myrosinase-like activity, glucoraphanin can be metabolized by the gut microbiota, to sulforaphane, sulforaphane-nitrile, glucoerucin, erucin, and erucin-nitrile. …”

Insulin/IGF-I and Related Signaling Pathways Regulate Aging in Nondividing Cells: from Yeast to the Mammalian Brain by Edoardo Parrella, Valter D. Longo

“…Mutations that reduce glucose or insulin/insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) signaling increase longevity in organisms ranging from yeast to mammals. Over the past 10 years, several studies confirmed this conserved molecular strategy of longevity regulation, and many more have been added to the complex mosaic that links stress resistance and aging. …”
