Italy represents a territory rich of common bean landraces, most them still uncharacterized. Thus, here, the proximal composition and metabolic profiles (fatty acid composition, total free amino acids) as well polyphenols antioxidant capacities both ‘Cerato’ ‘Curniciello’ dry beans, cultivated in Caserta’s rural areas (Southern Italy) were evaluated, comparison with other local known beans. The average vintages values exhibit lower content crude proteins (21.18 vs 23.41 g/100 g), lipids (1.27 2.08 acids (16.01 vs. 17.89 g) respect to although slight statistical differences found between two different harvest years analysed (2020-2021).

Background: The gut microbiome is increasingly recognized as a key player in metabolic health, influencing glucose and lipid metabolism through various mechanisms. However, the efficacy of microbiota-targeted interventions, such probiotics, prebiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), diet-based treatments, remains unclear for specific outcomes. In this study, aim was to evaluate impact these interventions on parameters individuals with diseases diabetes mellitus (DM), obesity, syndrome. Methods: This systematic review meta-analysis included 41 randomized controlled trials that investigated effects treatments fasting glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), homeostatic model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density (HDL-C), triglycerides. A comprehensive search conducted using databases like PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, focusing targeting microbiota. performed random-effects models, effect sizes calculated each outcome. Risk bias assessed Cochrane Bias tool. Results: Gut significantly reduced HbA1c, HOMA-IR, LDL-C, triglycerides, moderate heterogeneity observed across studies. also led modest increases HDL-C levels. Probiotic synbiotic showed most consistent benefits improving both profiles, while FMT yielded mixed results. Short-term rapid microbial shifts but less pronounced improvements, whereas longer-term had more substantial benefits. Conclusions: it demonstrated can improve outcomes, offering potential therapeutic strategy managing diseases. effectiveness varies depending type, duration, population characteristics, highlighting need further long-term studies assess sustained modulation health.

The gut microbiome plays a crucial role in human health, affecting metabolic, immune, and cognitive functions. While the impact of various dietary components on is well-studied, effect legumes remains less explored. This review examines influence legume consumption composition, diversity, metabolite production, based 10 21 animal studies. Human studies showed mixed results, with some showing increased microbial diversity others finding no significant changes. However, was linked to increases beneficial bacteria like Bifidobacterium Faecalibacterium. Animal generally indicated enhanced composition changes, though these varied by type host's health. Some highlighted legume-induced shifts associated better metabolic Overall, emphasizes complexity legume-microbiome interactions need for standardized methodologies longitudinal have potential positively affect microbiome, effects are nuanced depend context. Future research should investigate long-term impacts stability its broader health implications, particularly disease prevention strategies.

Потреба у нутрицевтичній підтримці при лікуванні пацієнтів із ЦД 2 типу для необхідного глікемічного контролю є актуальним напрямком сфері охорони здоров'я. Протягом останнього десятиліття терапія значно поліпшилася завдяки впровадженню ряду нових антигіперглікемічних препаратів, які широко застосовуються в клінічній практиці. Однак, синтетичні цукрознижуючі засоби мають негативні побічні ефекти тривалому використанні певних груп пацієнтів. У той же час, ліки, отримані з природних джерел, демонструють широкий спектр структурних та фізико-хімічних характеристик, були адаптовані через еволюцію селективного зв'язування функціональними макромолекулами організмі людини. Проведеним дослідженням доведено, що комплексна додаванням добавки дієтичної «Омнідіа», яка приймалася по 3 капсули тричі на добу за 30-60 хвилин до прийому їжі протягом 12 тижнів, надавала антигіперглікемічний і гіполіпідемічний типу. Також рослинний засіб «Омнідіа» добре переноситься пацієнтами не викликає побічних ефектів застосуванні.

Background Clinical observations have recently shown that Abelmoschus manihot (L.) in the form of Huangkui capsule (HKC) and combination with irbesartan (EB) is an effective therapy for diabetic nephropathy (DN) patients type 2 diabetes (T2D). The present study aims to explore mechanisms underlying therapeutic efficacies HKC its EB DN via gut-kidney axis. Methods HKC, EB, their or vehicle were administered db/db mice, which animal model T2D DN. Comparative analyses gut microbiota, serum metabolites, kidney transcriptomics before after drug administration performed. Results After treatment 4 weeks, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratios decreased significantly mice In terms abundances Faecalitalea, Blautia, Streptococcus increased but those Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Enterobacteriaceae, Desulfovibrio decreased. Parallelly, mainly including quercetin 3′-glucuronide L-dopa, elevated while cortisol cytochalasin B reduced. Furthermore, S100a8 , S100a9 Trem1 Mmp7 genes kidneys downregulated. These altered elements associated proteinuria/albuminuria reduction. However, had no effects on changes blood pressure specific differentially expressed kidneys.
