Selenium and Chronic Diseases: A Nutritional Genomics Perspective
Mechanistic data have revealed a key role for selenium (Se) and selenoproteins in biological pathways known to be altered in multifactorial diseases, such as cellular maintenance, response to oxidative stress and correct protein folding. Although epidemiological studies indicate that low Se intake is linked to increased risk for various chronic diseases, supplementation trials have given confus...
متن کاملNigella sativa: Valuable perspective in the management of chronic diseases
Objective(s): Over the past 20 years, increasing interest in the use of medicinal plants as alternative or adjuvant treatments of several chronic diseases was observed. Accordingly, Nigella sativa or black cumin, a medicinal plant rich in bioactive compounds, has been used worldwide for food purposes or in traditional medicines. This paper aims to reveal N. sativa pote...
متن کاملNutritional genomics.
The integration of genomics into nutritional sciences has illuminated the complexity of genome responses to nutritional exposures while offering opportunities to increase the effectiveness of nutritional interventions, both clinical and population based. Nutrients elicit multiple physiological responses that affect genome stability, imprinting, expression, and viability. These effects confer bo...
متن کاملNutritional Genomics
Recent dynamic development of genetics and its adjacent fields of study on one hand open the so far unthinkable perspectives of the basic and clinical research but, on the other hand, it bears the risk of too one-sided "genocentric" view of pathogenesis of human diseases and, in general, of all biological processes. Nevertheles, more complex view and approach is needed in perspective of today's...
متن کاملComparative genomics - A perspective
The rapidly emerging field of comparative genomics has yielded dramatic results. Comparative genome analysis has become feasible with the availability of a number of completely sequenced genomes. Comparison of complete genomes between organisms allow for global views on genome evolution and the availability of many completely sequenced genomes increases the predictive power in deciphering the h...
