CD39, an ectonucleotidase that hydrolyses pro-infammatory ATP, is a marker of highly active and suppressive T regulatory cells (Tregs). Although CD39 has a role in Treg suppression and might be important in the control of neuroinfammation in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RR-MS), to date, there are contradictory reports concerning the...

Peptides from several plant food proteins not only maintain the nutritional values of the original protein and decrease the environmental impact of animal agriculture, but also exert biological activities with significant health-beneficial effects. Wheat is the most important food grain source in the world. However, negative attention on...

Objectives: To obtain greater knowledge of the extra-pineal sources of melatonin during development, the amount of indolamine and the expression levels of the last two enzymes involved in its biosynthesis, Arylalkylamine N-acetyltransferase (AANAT) and acetylserotonin Omethyltransferase (ASMT), were analyzed in the human thymus from children...

Background: Over the last two decades, the demand for meat-free food has increased for health, environmental, and animal welfare reasons. Thus, research on the value of vegetable compounds as beneficial agents for human health has gained much attention. In particular, great interest has been shown in protein hydrolysation since this food...

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the most important cause of liver disease worldwide. It is characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver and is closely associated with abdominal obesity. In addition, oxidative stress and inflammation are significant features involved in MAFLD. Recently, our group demonstrated that...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology characterized by infiltration of encephalitogenic cells in the central nervous system (CNS) resulting in the presence of multifocal areas of demyelination leading to neurodegeneration. The infiltrated immune cells population is composed mainly of effector...

The dataset includes the raw data from the clinical score and flow cytometry analyzes carried out in the work titled " Melatonin synergistically potentiates the effect of methylprednisolone on reducing neuroinflammation in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis mouse model of multiple sclerosis". This study shows the protective...

Morphological embryo quality is an accurate prognostic tool for the success of assisted reproduction implantation, although complete certainty cannot be guaranteed. The transcriptome of the cumulus cells could be monitored as a faithful reflex of the physiological state of the oocytes, given the molecular crosstalk between both types of cells....

We have previously reported the in vitro hypocholesterolemic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects of Alcalase-generated lupin protein hydrolysate (LPH). Given that lipoprotein deposition, oxidative stress, and inflammation are the main components of atherogenesis, we characterized the LPH composition, in silico identified LPH–peptides...

Although cell-free systems and immortalized cell lines have been used to demonstrate the potential health benefits of lupine proteins and peptides, no study has examined the effects of lupine protein hydrolysates (LPHs) on the immune and oxidative responses of non-immortalized human cells. Therefore, the aims of this study were to evaluate the...

The prevalence of obesity is increasingly widespread, resembling a global epidemic. Lifestyle changes, such as consumption of high-energy-dense diets and physical inactivity, are major contributors to obesity. Common features of this metabolic pathology involve an imbalance in lipid and glucose homeostasis including dyslipidemia, insulin...

Data was acquired for the study published in the article titled: Anti-obesogenic effect of lupin-derived protein hydrolysate through modulation of adiposopathy, insulin resistance and gut dysbiosis in a diet-induced obese mouse. This study examines the effects of a lupin protein hydrolysate (LPH) on obesity, adipose tissue dysfunction and gut...

Anxiety is the most prevalent psychiatric disorder worldwide, causing a substantial economic burden due to the associated healthcare costs. Given that commercial anxiolytic treatments may cause important side effects and have medical restrictions for prescription and high costs, the search for new natural and safer treatments is gaining...

Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is characterized by a devastating and progressive loss of memory, is the principal neurodegenerative disease in the elderly population worldwide. As a consequence, AD patients present neuropsychiatric symptoms, such as anxiety, causing sleeping difficulty, irritability, agitation, or aggressiveness. Previous...

Scope: We have previously demonstrated the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of in vitro administered Lupinus angustifolius protein hydrolysates (LPHs) on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a beverage containing LPHs (LPHb) on the immune, oxidative and metabolic...
