1) Seven days of ingesting ASEA caused higher blood levels of free fatty acids in cyclists, leading to increased fat burning and sparing of amino acids during a 75km cycling trial compared to placebo.
2) ASEA intake was associated with increased serum levels of antioxidants like ascorbic acid and higher levels of Krebs cycle intermediates after exercise.
3) Some markers like creatinine and urea increased after exercise with ASEA but routine clinical measures were unchanged between groups.
http://www.RedoxSignalingMolecules.ca - Frequently Asked Questions (And Answers)
1. What is ASEA?
ASEA is an immune boosting molecular complex consisting of reactive molecules, all native to the human body and naturally balanced. These molecules include a perfect balance of antioxidant enhancers that are balanced to support the immune system, detoxify the body and protect and fortify healthy tissue.
2. What Are Reactive Molecules?
Reactive molecules are either active electron acceptors (prone to take on electrons) or electron donors (prone to give up electrons). When these two classes of molecules are chemically balanced in our body, our immune systems can function at its optimal level.
3. How Do These Reactive Molecules Work?
There are two major roles for these reactive molecules in the body. First, they pair up with the natural antioxidants already in our body to help detoxify and fortify healthy tissue. Secondly, they supply the raw materials that the immune system needs in order to perform its natural function to detect and destroy harmful invaders and damaged cells.
4. How Much ASEA Should I Take?
ASEA has been proven to be entirely non-toxic at any reasonable dose. It can be taken orally, applied topically or inhaled without causing irritation. The recommended maintenance amount is 4 oz. per day for adults. ASEA is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women. Consult with a physician if you are sensitive to salt intake.
5. Can I Apply ASEA To My Skin, Scrapes, Cuts, Or Burns?
ASEA is a natural disinfectant and antimicrobial and yet is soothing to the touch. ASEA can be used in a spray bottle for use on scrapes, burns and abrasions and can be liberally sprayed on the skin and will not cause irritation. ASEA contains a very small amount of chlorine. If you are allergic to chlorine, it is not recommended for use on the face. As always, consult a physician if there are any concerns.
6. Is ASEA Safe?
Testing has shown ASEA to be entirely safe and non-toxic no matter how it is consumed or applied. It has shown literally zero endotoxicity, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity (mutagenic properties) in all 16 years of studies that were performed. Consult with a physician if you are sensitive to salt intake.

ASEA Research Summary Presentation - http://bit.ly/1j4wXnnEinar Bjarnason
Metabolomics: Goal is to measure the influence of ASEA on small molecules (metabolites) that shift in response to supplementation. The shift in metabolites, depending on the nutritional product, may represent effects on inflammation, oxidative stress, and physiologic stress.
METABOLISM & STAMINA: Double-blind, 3rd-party, placebo-controlled human trials at Appalachian State Human Performance Lab, North Carolina Research Campus saw remarkable changes in 43 metabolites ("fingerprints" of bio-chemical reactions), massive release of fat to be used as fuel, and an unheard-of 12% increase in endurance (measured by ventilatory threshold, VO2max, time to "hitting the wall.") In a follow-up study, mice ran 29% farther.
1) Ingestion of ASEA for one week strongly increased serum fatty acid levels in male cyclists, mobilizing fatty acids from adipose tissue for energy during exercise via beta-oxidation. This spared amino acid catabolism and increased Krebs cycle intermediates after exercise.
2) ASEA intake was associated with higher levels of the antioxidant ascorbic acid and lower levels of its breakdown products, both acutely and over time.
3) Some other metabolite changes were observed with ASEA supplementation, such as increases in creatinine and urea, but kidney and liver function markers were within normal ranges.
- The study demonstrated that the saturated fatty acid palmitate is cytotoxic to pancreatic β-cells, but the cells can recover when palmitate is removed.
- Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) like EPA may aid in this recovery process.
- The effects of palmitate and EPA on insulin content, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, and histone acetyltransferase activity were examined using a lipotoxicity model.
- Preliminary results showed that liporecovered cells had higher insulin content than untreated cells and recovered insulin secretion function, while chronic exposure to palmitate and EPA disrupted secretion. Histone acetyltransferase activity also decreased under chronic conditions but recovered with liporecovery.
1) Seven days of ingesting ASEA caused extensive mobilization of free fatty acids from adipose tissue in cyclists. This led to increased fat oxidation and sparing of amino acids and muscle glycogen during a 75km cycling trial.
2) ASEA intake was associated with increased serum levels of ascorbic acid, likely from the adrenal cortex, as well as higher levels of Krebs cycle intermediates post-exercise indicating increased fat metabolism.
3) The shifts in metabolites suggest ASEA supplementation may impact inflammation, oxidative stress, and physiologic stress through effects on fatty acid and amino acid metabolism. Further investigation is needed to understand other metabolic changes observed.
Effects of amount and profile of AA supply on mammary AA metabolism Bethany Dado
The study evaluated the effects of varying amounts and profiles of amino acids (AA) supplied to the mammary gland on AA uptake and metabolism. Cows received diets with different crude protein levels or abomasal AA infusions. While arterial AA concentrations changed as intended, mammary metabolism responded differently for individual AA. Greater methionine supply did not increase its uptake, suggesting other factors limit milk protein. Overall, mammary AA uptake seemed regulated more by cellular demand than arterial concentrations. Results challenge the assumption that increasing AA supply alone can boost milk protein yield.

This study examined the individual metabolism of apolipoprotein (a) [apo(a)] and apolipoprotein B-100 [apoB-100] within lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] particles in the blood. Researchers found that the rate at which apo(a) is cleared from the blood is about half the rate at which apoB-100 is cleared when using an immunoprecipitation method to separate the proteins, whereas earlier studies found similar clearance rates using ultracentrifugation. The differences in clearance rates depending on the separation technique suggest that apo(a) and apoB-100 within Lp(a) particles may not be catabolized together in the non-fasting state. The study helps
Most commercial fermented milks showed moderate ACE-inhibitory activity, though some exceptions had higher activity that could relate to the milk origin. Two fermented milks were subjected to simulated gastrointestinal digestion, which increased their ACE-inhibitory activity, suggesting physiological digestion promotes formation of active peptides. Peptides generated from one product during digestion were sequenced, and most formed after 30 minutes of pancreatic enzyme incubation, indicating digestion facilitates peptide release from proteins in these fermented products.

Despite advances in treatment of bowel cancer, it remains the second most common cause of cancer death in the Western world. Use of drugs or nutritional supplements (chemoprevention) is an attractive strategy for prevention of bowel cancer in combination with other modalities such as population screening and endoscopic surveillance, particularly if the chemoprevention agent is safe, well tolerated and cost effective. This webinar describes existing evidence that omega-3 fatty acids have activity against bowel cancer. Recent completed and ongoing clinical trials of EPA for primary prevention of bowel cancer and prevention of metastatic disease are described. Current thinking about how omega-3 fatty acids might work against bowel cancer are also explained.
The document describes research showing that D-stereoisomers of apo A-I mimetic peptides, when given orally to mice, can reduce atherosclerosis. Specifically, it was found that:
1) D-form peptides had dramatically elevated serum half-lives compared to L-form peptides.
2) Orally administered D-form peptides were effectively delivered and retained biological activity, reducing atherosclerotic lesions in mice.
3) One D-form peptide (D-4F) significantly reduced aortic root lesion area and surface oxidation in mice.

The document summarizes research on producing levulinic acid from sugarcane bagasse. Sugarcane bagasse was pretreated using liquid hot water and enzymatic hydrolysis to break it down. The resulting glucose solution was then hydrolyzed using sulfuric acid and methanesulfonic acid to produce levulinic acid. Methanesulfonic acid produced a slightly higher levulinic acid yield. An experimental design was used to optimize production, finding the highest yield of 19,000 mg/L at 180°C, 0.625M methanesulfonic acid concentration, and 60 minutes reaction time. Cellulignin and pure cellulose were also tested as substrates. The research aims to produce levulinic acid
The document summarizes an experiment that measured blood lactate levels in individuals before and after exercise. It found that lactate levels increased with exercise and were higher in males on average than females. Fitness level could be determined by the difference in pre-and post-exercise lactate concentrations, with more fit individuals having a smaller difference. Additional analysis showed lactate levels varied between individuals due to factors like age, sex, fitness, and health conditions. The objective to measure pre-and post-exercise blood lactate was achieved.
This document summarizes a study that investigated substituting an ethanol extract of alfalfa for antibiotics in broiler chicken feed. Sixty broiler chicks were divided into three treatment groups: a control group and two groups fed diets with 0.1% or 0.15% alfalfa extract. Liver enzyme levels and weight gain were measured. While alkaline phosphatase levels increased significantly in the treatment groups, other liver enzymes did not change significantly. All treatment groups showed significant weight gain compared to the control. The study concluded that the alfalfa extract can promote weight gain in broilers without antibiotics and does not negatively impact liver function.
Renal Cell Carcinoma with hepatic metastasisJanrey Tiña
Renal cell carcinoma with hepatic metastasis. The patient, a 58-year-old man, presented with difficulty urinating, fever, and other symptoms. He was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the most common type of kidney cancer, which had metastasized to his liver. A medical workup found high cholesterol, creatinine, and other abnormalities. He underwent a nephrectomy where RCC was confirmed. A diet was prescribed to manage his condition, focusing on sodium and potassium restriction, adequate fluid intake, and maintaining a healthy weight. Regular medical follow-ups were recommended to monitor his progress and health status.
Lipamino acids are amphiphilic molecules consisting of a fatty acid moiety conjugated to an amino acid. They have both lipophilic and hydrophilic properties. Due to this structure, lipamino acids can be used as drug delivery systems to increase drug permeability and stability. Specifically:
- Conjugating peptides to lipamino acids increases their lipophilicity and membrane permeability while also protecting the peptides from enzymatic digestion. This can improve oral bioavailability.
- Loading drugs into lipamino acid-containing vesicle systems can further enhance permeability by passive transport mechanisms and protect unstable drugs.
- Different lipamino acid chain lengths and amino acid types were evaluated for their ability to encapsulate and release
Plants synthesise a huge variety of fatty acids although only a few are major and common constituents . Broadly speaking, long-chain fatty acids are synthesised de novo from small precursors ultimately derived from photosynthate.
Major Electrolytes & Their Homeostasis Part-2Farhana Atia
Major electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, bicarbonate, and phosphate are distributed differently between the extracellular fluid (ECF) and intracellular fluid (ICF) compartments. Calcium homeostasis is tightly regulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D, and calcitonin which act to increase or decrease calcium resorption in bones and reabsorption in kidneys. Hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia can result from disorders of the parathyroid glands or kidneys. Similarly, phosphate levels are regulated by PTH, vitamin D, and calcitonin to affect bone levels, and disorders can cause hypo- or hyperphosphatemia. Magnesium is also regulated and
The document discusses three energy systems - anaerobic A-lactic, anaerobic lactic, and aerobic.
1) Anaerobic A-lactic provides high bursts of energy for up to 10 seconds during activities like sprinting or weightlifting.
2) Anaerobic lactic supplies energy for medium to high intensity activities from 10 seconds to a few minutes and produces lactic acid.
3) Aerobic provides energy for low intensity activities lasting 2 minutes or more and continually produces ATP as long as oxygen is available, without lactic acid production.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

This guideline is directed principally toward new Molecular Entities that are
likely to have significant use in the elderly, either because the disease intended
to be treated is characteristically a disease of aging ( e.g., Alzheimer's disease) or
because the population to be treated is known to include substantial numbers of
geriatric patients (e.g., hypertension).

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

supplementation. The shift in
metabolites, depending on the
nutritional product, may represent
effects on inflammation, oxidative
stress, and physiologic stress.

4. Working Summary
• Seven days ingestion of ASEA (relative to
placebo) caused an extensive mobilization of free
fatty acids from adipose tissue in male cyclists.
• Athletes on ASEA for 7-days started the 75-km
cycling trial with high blood free fatty acids
leading to increased fat oxidation and a sparing
of amino acids (and potentially muscle glycogen).
• ASEA intake was associated with a large increase
in serum ascorbic acid levels (probably from the
adrenal cortex).
• Serum creatinine and urea also increased post-
exercise.
Slide 3

5. 2) Acute Effect: Increased fatty acid oxidation
and mobilization during exercise (placebo
condition was linked to a late mobilization).
Finding 1: Ingestion of ASEA beverage for one
week strongly increased serum fatty acids
levels (most likely from adipose tissue).
1) Chronic Effect: Higher fatty acid levels pre-
exercise (several types of fatty acids --- see slides).
Triglyceride Mobilization: corresponding
with the increase in free fatty acids, glycerol
was higher at baseline (indicative of extensive
adipose triglyceride hydrolysis).
