Blocking a single gene interferes with the metabolism of vitamin D and cancer trails in the new cell examination

Blocking a single gene interferes with the metabolism of vitamin D and cancer trails in the new cell examination

Last study published in the journal He examined the role of an enzyme with short -chain dehydrogenase/reductase 42E (SDR42E1) in regulation of sterol metabolism and vitamin D. Vitamin D is a Pleotropic hormone necessary for calcium phosphorus and homeostasis, bone immunity and health function. Deficiencies may result from impaired absorption and metabolism, despite the exposure […]

Astrocytes affect metabolism and cognitive function in obesity

Astrocytes affect metabolism and cognitive function in obesity

Fat diets and obesity affect the structure and function of astrocytes, cerebral cells in the shape of a star found in the stripes, the brain region involved in the perception of the pleasure produced by food intake. Even more surprising is that by manipulating these astrocytes at mice, it can affect metabolism and improve some […]
