“They gathered information about the participants' general health and lifestyles and measured their C-reactive protein (CRP, a biomarker of inflammation). They found that nearly half of the participants had white matter hyperintensities.”

“Only six studies reported bone density, and long-term data were limited, making it difficult to tell whether the biomarker response translated into structural change. Two workouts can demand similar cardiovascular effort while placing very different forces on the skeleton.”

“Interestingly, wine-consuming mice were not impaired to the same degree. And while their plasma lipid profiles were no better compared to their water-drinking peers, they had substantially lower levels of several biomarkers of neuroinflammation, such as GFAP and lectin.”

“Careful monitoring of training stress is key to avoid overtraining, but there's no single biomarkers that can currently be used to assess whether someone is overtrained or not. However, recent research has identified mitochondrial dysfunction as a novel and potentially useful biomarker of overtraining.”

“Using functional MRI (fMRI) data from more than 900 people between the ages of 18 and 88 years, they determined that neural network stability is a biomarker of brain aging, and the loss of network stability manifests as early as the fifth decade of life (average age, 47 years).”

“The authors of the study documented biomarkers of AD and PD present in brainstem samples taken during the autopsies of 186 healthy children and young adults (age range, 11 months to 27 years) living in the metro area of Mexico City, a region known for its high levels of air pollution.”

“When given with other drugs, sulforaphane potentiated some of the drugs' effects. In humans, sulforaphane undergoes extensive biotransformation in the gut to yield mercapturic acid, which can be measured in urine and serves as a biomarker of intake.”

“The randomized, controlled, crossover trial involved 51 adults (60 years and older) who were living in a residential care facility and had elevated zonulin, a biomarker of impaired gut barrier function.”

“Statistical analyses suggested that these biomarkers together may help explain part of the association, with cystatin C accounting for 10%, CRP for 8.8%, and HDL-C for 7.5% of the link. The association looked similar regardless of the omega-3 metabolism genetic variants the researchers tested.”

“These adaptations to high temperatures involve increased production of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a promoter of neuroplasticity, and irisin, a biomarker of exercise. Findings of a new report demonstrate that whole-body hyperthermia increases BDNF and irisin in healthy young adults.”
