To assess if habitual sleep duration/quality was associated with appetite in individuals with obesity, and if the association was modulated by sex.

Sleep duration/quality was measured with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score in 95 healthy adults with obesity (BMI 36.6±4.2kg/m
). Subjective feelings of appetite were assessed using visual analogue scales, and plasma concentrations of active ghrelin, total peptide YY, active glucagon-like peptide 1, cholecystokinin (CCK) and insulin were measured in fasting and every 30min up to 2.5h after a meal.

No significant associations were found between sleep duration, or overall quality, and appetite in all participants. However, a worse sleep efficiency was associated with lower postprandial CCK, a shorter habitual sleep was associated with lower postprandial desire to eat and a lower daytime dysfunction was associated with higher prospective food consumption in fasting (P<0.05, for all). In males, a shorter habitual sleep duration and a worse subjective sleeed by sex, but more studies are needed to confirm these findings.
Sodium propionate (SP) has been reported to possess an anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic potential by inhibiting certain signaling pathways and helps in reducing the pathological damages of the mammary gland. However, the effects of sodium propionate on attenuating Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory condition and cell damage in bovine mammary epithelial cells (bMECs) are not comprehensively studied yet. Therefore, the aim of the current investigation was to evaluate the protective effects of sodium propionate on LPS-induced inflammatory conditions and to clarify the possible underlying molecular mechanism in bMECs.

The effects of increasing doses of SP on LPS-induced inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis was studied in vitro. Furthermore, the underlying protective mechanisms of SP on LPS-stimulated bMECs was investigated under different experimental conditions.

The results reveled that increased inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and those of tight junction's mRNA expression was significantly attenuated dose-dependently by propionate. Biochemical analysis revealed that propionate pretreatment modulated the LPS-induced intercellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, oxidative and antioxidant factors and apoptosis rate. Furthermore, we investigated that the LPS activated nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB), caspase/Bax apoptotic pathways and Histone deacetylases (HDAC) was significantly attenuated by propionate in bMECs.

Our results suggest that sodium propionate is a potent agent for ameliorating LPS-mediated cellular disruption and limiting detrimental inflammatory responses, partly via maintaining blood milk barrier integrity, inhibiting HDAC activity and NF-kB signaling pathway.

Macrophages, as the most important immune cells in the body, run through the beginning and end of disease development. After macrophages overtake the atherosclerosis-susceptible area apolipoprotein low-density lipoprotein ox-LDL, they transform into foam cells that adhere to blood vessels and recruit a large number of pro-inflammatory factors to initiate the disease. Promoting the outflow of lipids in foam cells and alleviating inflammation have become the basic ideas for the study of atherosclerosis treatment strategies. The polarization of macrophages refers to the estimation of the activation of macrophages at a specific point in space and time. Determining the proportion of different macrophage phenotypes in the plaque can help identify delay or prevent disease development. However, the abnormal polarization of macrophages and the accumulation of lipid also affect the growth state of cells to some extent, thus aggravate the influence on plaque area and stability. Besides, overactive or deficient autophagy of macrophages may also lead to cell death and participate in lipid metabolism and inflammation regression. In this paper, the role of macrophages in atherosclerosis was discussed from three aspects polarization, death, and autophagy.
Intra-platelet 5-HT (IP 5-HT) and YAP exhibit an important role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of the study was to investigate whether IP 5-HT and YAP could affect the progression and prognosis of HCC.

5-HT level and YAP expression were measured and were compared between HCC patients and control patients. By grouping HCC patients, we analyzed clinical indicators and survival. The predictive nomogram was established by R software according to the risk factors obtained from multivariate analysis.

Higher IP 5-HT level and higher YAP expression were associated with poorer prognosis. In addition, they were also associated with BCLC stages. Higher IP 5-HT was found to be related with higher international normalized ratio (INR) (p=0.040), more death (p=0.015) and higher YAP expression (p<0.001). Similarly, higher YAP expression was proved to be associated with lower platelet counts (PLT) (p=0.032), smaller tumor size (p=0.017), more death (p<0.001) and higher IP 5-HT (p<0.001). In addition, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), YAP and tumor size were proved to be independent risk factors. By using risk factors, we have established a prognostic prediction nomogram for HCC patients. In the prognostic prediction nomogram, patients with higher scores would have poorer prognosis.

IP 5-HT and YAP might affect the progression and prognosis of HCC through synergistic effect. Moreover, IP 5-HT might affect HCC by regulating YAP expression. Thus, both of them might be potential therapeutic targets. Mocetinostat datasheet By establishing the prognostic prediction nomogram, we could improve the prediction system.
