“> Specifically, Chao says, the researchers found that DBHB prevents other proteins in the brain known as histone deacetylase complexes, or HDACs, from suppressing BDNF production by altering the environment of the BDNF gene. Publication.”

“The authors found that quercetin supplementation blunted exercise-induced muscle adaptations in the rats. The combination of exercise and quercetin supplementation reduced mitochondrial content and increased protein carbonyl content, a marker of oxidative damage in the skeletal muscle.”

“Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) is a cellular protein that regulates the expression of antioxidant and stress response proteins. It participates in the Keap1/Nrf2/ARE biological pathway – the primary mechanism by which sulforaphane exerts its beneficial effects.”

“In recent decades, scientist Shinya Yamanaka identified a group of proteins that can reprogram differentiated (mature) cells into pluripotent stem cells. These five proteins, now named Yamanaka factors, are highly expressed in embryonic stem cells in mice and humans.”

“Not only is salmon roe a good source of DHA, it also provides protein, vitamins, minerals, and astaxanthin – an antioxidant compound that gives salmon its reddish or pinkish tint. In human studies, astaxanthin reduces biomarkers of oxidative stress.”

“Viruses are small particles containing genetic material (RNA in the case of SARS-CoV-2) and a lipid capsule with protein structures on the surface. They do not contain the cellular machinery to create new viruses and depend on host cells for replication.”

“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.”

“In this podcast we dive into how heat causes the growth of new brain cells, plays a part in the "runner's high," improves endurance, affects longevity, increases heat shock proteins and why that is awesome.”

“Some of the preliminary evidence that increased expression of a certain heat shock protein in the brain may influence behavior by protecting against stress-induced depression. The biological wisdom that may be embedded in traditional spiritual practices when it comes to keeping depression at bay...”

“These effects have been attributed to less reactive oxygen species production, greater immune system clearance of amyloid beta proteins, and an increase in glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor or GDNF—a brain protein that helps neurons survive and regenerate.”
