A groundbreaking study conducted by a large international team of scientists is addressing a complex and pressing issue in mental health: the frequent occurrence of multiple psychiatric disorders in individuals throughout their lives. This extensive research, published in the journal Nature, marks the most in-depth investigation to date into the shared genetic underpinnings of 14 distinct psychiatric conditions. At the helm of this research is the Cross-Disorder Working Group of the [...]

A recent study conducted by a collaborative research team from Brazil's Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD), the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), and São Paulo State University (UNESP) has presented compelling evidence in support of the medicinal properties of the Joseph's Coat plant, scientifically known as Alternanthera littoralis. This plant, which is native to Brazil's coastal regions, has a long history of use in traditional medicine for treating inflammation, [...]

The gut may hold the keys to how our bodies manage energy and blood sugar. In a groundbreaking international study published in Cell Metabolism, scientists uncovered a group of gut-derived molecules that travel from the intestine to the liver and then to the heart, influencing how the body regulates metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The discovery suggests that these microscopic chemical messengers could one day help develop new treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes. The research, led [...]

If you’ve ever suspected that your gut has a mind of its own, science agrees it does. A new study suggests that tiny molecules made by bacteria in the intestine may dictate how our bodies store fat, burn energy and respond to insulin, long before you notice the effects on the bathroom scales. Researchers supported by Brazil’s FAPESP and working at Harvard University have identified a stream of gut-made compounds that travel directly from the intestine to the liver, before being pumped [...]

Groundbreaking Harvard research reveals gut-produced molecules significantly influence obesity and blood sugar control. These tiny compounds, traveling from the gut to the liver, impact energy use, fat storage, and insulin response. This discovery shifts focus from diet and drugs to targeting the gut-liver metabolic pathway, potentially leading to novel prevention and treatment strategies for type 2 diabetes. There is no denying that diabetes is one of the deadliest chronic diseases of all [...]

A research project backed by FAPESP and conducted at Harvard University has unveiled a network of metabolites that traverse from the intestine to the liver and subsequently to the heart, where they are distributed throughout the body. These circulating compounds are believed to influence metabolic pathways in the liver and the body’s insulin sensitivity, indicating new avenues for treating conditions like obesity and type 2 diabetes. The findings were published in the journal Cell [...]

Harvard researchers have identified gut derived metabolites that reach the liver and affect energy use, insulin response, and fat metabolism. Shaped by diet and genetics, these molecules could lead to new treatments for obesity and metabolic disorder A groundbreaking Harvard linked study has uncovered how molecules made by gut bacteria travel through the body and influence the liver’s ability to regulate energy and blood sugar. These gut-derived metabolites, which shift with diet, [...]

In Brazil, researchers from the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD), the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), and São Paulo State University (UNESP) have conducted a study that confirmed the safety and anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and anti-arthritic properties of the Joseph’s Coat plant (Alternanthera littoralis). Native to the Brazilian coast, this plant has been used in folk medicine to combat inflammation, microbial infections, and parasitic diseases. Until now, there has [...]
