Efficacy of a new delivery system based on solid lipid microparticles for the oral administration of the non-conventional antioxidant IAC on a diabetes mouse model
We previously showed the positive effects of the new antioxidant molecule bis(1-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl)-decandioate (IAC) in reducing basal hyperglycaemia and relieving glucose intolerance in a diabetes model. However, the chemical properties of IAC did not allow an efficient oral administration, thus representing the main failing of that study. Here, we tested the effect of a new oral delivery system based on solid lipid microparticles (SLMs) in a diabetes mouse model.
The combined effect of Sango sprout juice and caloric restriction on metabolic disorders and gut microbiota composition in an obesity model
The main purpose of this study was to compare the benefits of SSJ supplementation in obese rats with those achieved only by switching the alimentary regimen from high-fat (HFD) to the regular one (RD) in liver, ileum and prostate. Furthermore, changings in caecal chime microbiota were investigated. SSJ was administered to rats in combination with a RD (HFD-RD + SSJ). The switch from HFD to RD led to a weight loss of almost 9.8 g, and the total cholesterol was found to be significantly lower. In the HFD-RD + SSJ group, all values were improved compared with the HFD control, and the weight decrement was higher (-23.29 g) with respect to HFD-RD. HFD led to a widespread increment of oxidative stress (OS) markers in liver, ileum and prostate. SSJ has shown to improve the results achieved by the suspension of HFD and it has proven effective wherever the only switch in diet regimen failed.
