Item type:Publication, Molecular pathways and nutrigenomic review of insulin resistance development in gestational diabetes mellitus(Frontiers Media SA, 2023-09-20); ; ; ; <jats:p>Gestational diabetes mellitus is a condition marked by raised blood sugar levels and insulin resistance that usually occurs during the second or third trimester of pregnancy. According to the World Health Organization, hyperglycemia affects 16.9% of pregnancies worldwide. Dietary changes are the primarily alternative treatment for gestational diabetes mellitus. This paper aims to perform an exhaustive overview of the interaction between diet, gene expression, and the metabolic pathways related to insulin resistance. The intake of foods rich in carbohydrates can influence the gene expression of glycolysis, as well as foods rich in fat, can disrupt the beta-oxidation and ketogenesis pathways. Furthermore, vitamins and minerals are related to inflammatory processes regulated by the TLR4/NF-κB and one carbon metabolic pathways. We indicate that diet regulated gene expression of <jats:italic>PPARα</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>NOS</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>CREB3L3</jats:italic>, <jats:italic>IRS</jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>CPT I</jats:italic>, altering cellular physiological mechanisms and thus increasing or decreasing the risk of gestational diabetes. The alteration of gene expression can cause inflammation, inhibition of fatty acid transport, or on the contrary help in the modulation of ketogenesis, improve insulin sensitivity, attenuate the effects of glucotoxicity, and others. Therefore, it is critical to comprehend the metabolic changes of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus, to determine nutrients that help in the prevention and treatment of insulin resistance and its long-term consequences.</jats:p>Scopus© Citations 14 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Exploring the genetic basis of violence: The impact of Y and X chromosomes(Medwave Estudios Limitada, 2025-07-07); ; ; ; Violence is a pressing global concern, causing more than 475 000 deaths annually and disproportionately affecting women and children. While environmental, genetic, and epigenetic factors contribute to violent behavior, this article focuses on the genetic aspect, particularly the roles of the X and Y chromosomes. The monoamino oxidase A () gene influences neurotransmitter catabolism and is located on the X chromosome. Polymorphisms, such as tandem repeat variants associated with low transcriptional activity, have been linked to aggression, particularly in men, as X chromosome inactivation complicates studies in women. Other variants, including single-nucleotide polymorphisms, have also been associated with violent behavior. Additionally, individuals with fragile X syndrome often exhibit increased aggression patterns. The Y chromosome’s sex-determining region Y gene () plays a pivotal role in male sexual development and behavior. Besides directing testicular formation, is expressed in other tissues, influencing violence by modulating catecholamine release and inhibiting the monoamio oxidasa A. Evolutionary hypotheses suggest that may have adapted to promote male aggression for survival. Despite evidence linking the X and Y chromosomes to violence, conflicting findings highlight the need for further research to fully understand their roles in aggressive behavior. This article focuses on the genetic component, specifically analyzing the bibliographic evidence associating Y and X chromosome genetics to violent behavior. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Differential impact of coffee quantity and sweetening on body composition parameters and inflammation(Frontiers Media SA, 2025-09-17) ;Giuseppe Annunziata ;Evelyn Frias-Toral ;Francesco Campa ;Maria Antonieta Touriz BonifazLudovica VerdeBackground: Coffee is the most consumed and popular beverage worldwide. The health benefits of its regular, moderate consumption are well known, and include antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, as well as metabolic effects, reducing the risk of obesity and related diseases. The available literature, however, provides no information about the effect of coffee consumption on body composition (BC) and inflammation. The present cross-sectional observational study aims to investigate the effect of coffee consumption on BC and inflammation-related parameters, as well as the possible impact of adding sugar and the frequency of consumption. Coffee consumption habits, preference for adding sugar and frequency of daily consumption were assessed in 2,556 adults (1,080 men and 1,476 women). BC was assessed using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA), whilst high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were monitored for inflammatory status. Results: A total of 1,855 subjects (680 men and 1,175 women) were included in the statistical analysis. Compared to non-consumers, coffee consumers showed lower body mass index (BMI), waist girth (WG), and hs-CRP levels, and higher skeletal muscle mass (SMM), appendicular SMM (ASMM), phase angle (PhA), and standardised PhA (SPA) (p< 0.001 for all). The same trend was observed for unsweetened coffee consumers compared to subjects consuming sweetened coffee. With increasing coffee consumption, BMI, WG, and hs-CRP generally decreased, whilst SMM and ASMM showed a bell-shaped trend with peak values in those consuming 2–3 cups per day. Similarly, PhA and SPA values were highest among moderate coffee consumers. Conclusion: These findings suggest that moderate coffee consumption, particularly unsweetened coffee, is associated with more favourable body composition and inflammatory profiles. Given the observational design, causality cannot be established. Nevertheless, the results may inform dietary guidance aimed at supporting muscle maintenance and mitigating obesity-related metabolic risk.Scopus© Citations 1
