“This biomarker (called glial fibrillary acidic protein) is released upon injury to the brain and can stay in the bloodstream for up to a week and may possibly eliminate the need for radiation-exposing CT scans.”

“A larger clinical trial with more than 1,380 participants who did not have diabetes found that taking a proprietary supplement that included berberine for eight weeks increased HDL cholesterol and reduced non-HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, waist circumference, and blood pressure, all biomarkers used to diagnose metabolic syndrome.”

“00:52:40 - The omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) reduced symptoms of bipolar depression. Study. 00:54:25 - Telomere length is biomarker for aging.”

“The study also found that women who increased their strength by 10% or more reduced CRP by 31% compared with women who improved less. Increases in serum CRP levels in breast cancer survivors have been associated with poorer outcomes. For example, a one-unit increase in CRP levels is linked to a 21% increase all-cause mortality and an 18% increase in breast cancer-specific mortality.”

“Failures in mitophagy are associated with several chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and Alzheimer’s disease The study involved 88 healthy adults (40 to 65 years old) who had overweight.”

“In a short intervention in 29 healthy young men, a daily sugar-sweetened beverage increased fasting glucose, C-reactive protein, and atherogenic LDL features within three weeks; this was a biomarker study, not a cancer trial.”

“FTA: > The blood biomarkers serum albumin and creatinine appear to be associated with survival in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and may help define prognosis in patients after they are diagnosed with the fatal neurodegenerative disorder commonly known as Lou Gehrig disease, researchers report.”

“In a randomized trial of 57 children with autism spectrum disorder, a caregiver-rated secondary behavior scale improved and biomarker changes involved glutathione, mitochondrial, inflammatory, and heat-shock pathways, while the primary clinical outcome was similar between groups.”

“Dr. Patrick discusses norepinephrine and BDNF responses and distinguishes human acute biomarker or cognitive findings from animal evidence for direct brain adaptations. She also describes lactate signaling at the blood-brain barrier through VEGF, angiogenesis, vascular repair, and density.”
