Antioxidative Effects of Phenolic Compounds of Mushroom Mycelia in Simulated Regions of the Human Colon, In Vitro Study by Vamanu Emanuel, Pelinescu Diana, Avram Ionela

“…We noted a significant (p<0.01) correlation between antioxidant status in the transverse and descending colon after MycoPo administration, and A. brunnescens consumption with the number of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria species (R2>0.85). These data suggest a direct relationship between favorable bacterial strains and availability of bioactive compounds, with specificity for each colon region.…”

TT Mutant Homozygote of Is a Key Factor for Increasing Basal Metabolic Rate and Resting Metabolic Rate in Korean Elementary School Children by Jung Ran Choi, In-Su Kwon, Dae Young Kwon, Myung-Sunny Kim, Myoungsook Lee

“…In the high-BMR group, we observed that higher muscle, fat mass, and C-peptide affect the increase of BMR in children with TT (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p = 0.018, respectively), while Rohrer's index could explain the usual decrease in BMR (adjust r2 = 1.000, p < 0.001, respectively). We identified a novel association between TT of KLF5 rs3782933 and BMR in Korean children. …”
