UniProt: the Universal Protein Knowledgebase in 2023

Alex Bateman et al.

Summary: The UniProt Knowledgebase aims to provide comprehensive, high-quality, and freely accessible protein sequences annotated with functional information. The database has expanded its data processing pipeline and website to accommodate the increasing information content, with over 227 million sequences and plans to include a reference proteome for each taxonomic group. Detailed annotations are extracted from the literature to update or create reviewed entries, while unreviewed entries are supplemented with annotations from automated systems. The new website, https://www.uniprot.org/, offers enhanced user experience and easy access to data, including AlphaFold structures and improved protein subcellular localization visualizations.

Effects of naringenin supplementation on cardiovascular risk factors in overweight/obese patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease: a pilot double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial

Fatemeh Naeini et al.

Summary: This double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial investigated the effects of naringenin supplementation on cardiovascular complications in NAFLD patients. The results showed that naringenin supplementation significantly reduced atherogenic index, non-HDL-C levels, and various cholesterol ratios. It also resulted in a reduction in BMI and visceral fat level. These findings suggest that naringenin may be a promising treatment strategy for cardiovascular complications among NAFLD patients.

A Comprehensive Systematic Review of the Effects of Naringenin, a Citrus-Derived Flavonoid, on Risk Factors for Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Fatemeh Naeini et al.

Summary: Naringenin, a natural flavanone, has shown promising therapeutic effects in the treatment of NAFLD by modulating various biological processes related to the disease. Its potency and efficacy compared to other antioxidants suggest that naringenin may be a potential therapeutic approach for managing NAFLD and associated complications. However, further robust clinical trials and human pharmacokinetic studies are needed to establish optimal dosage ranges and address safety concerns before larger-scale trials can be conducted.

Research progress in use of traditional Chinese medicine monomer for treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Honglin Zhou et al.

Summary: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is gradually becoming one of the most common chronic liver diseases in the world due to the improvement of living standards and changes in eating habits. Traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) have attracted attention for their multi-target and multi-channel mechanisms in treating NAFLD, showing potential through regulating various pathways for ameliorating the disease.

Protein Function Prediction Based on PPI Networks: Network Reconstruction vs Edge Enrichment

Jiaogen Zhou et al.

Summary: The study found that edge enrichment in PPI networks works better than network reconstruction and original networks, with sequence similarity outperforming both local and global similarity. These results are helpful for biologists to choose suitable pre-processing schemes and achieve more accurate protein function prediction.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Elizabeth E. Powell et al.

Summary: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common global health issue with significant associations with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, leading to serious complications like cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. While cardiovascular disease and extrahepatic malignancy are the main causes of death in NAFLD patients, advanced liver fibrosis is a key prognostic marker for liver-related outcomes and overall mortality.

Summary: The study demonstrated that maternal nicotine exposure can significantly decrease the weight and inhibit organ growth in offspring mice, increase serum lipid levels, induce insulin resistance, and affect lipid metabolism through the activation of specific signaling pathways.

A review of mechanisms of disease across PIK3CA-related disorders with vascular manifestations

Guillaume Canaud et al.

Summary: PIK3CA-related disorders encompass a range of conditions involving overgrowth and vascular malformations caused by mutations in the PIK3CA gene. Diagnosis can be challenging due to overlapping phenotypes, and treatment response is typically assessed through clinical improvement, radiological response, and patient-reported outcomes. Current therapeutic options include the mTOR inhibitor sirolimus, but other agents targeting the PI3K pathway are under investigation. Management of these disorders requires a multidisciplinary approach, and ongoing clinical studies will provide further insights into treatment options.

Summary: Saroglitazar showed significant efficacy in patients with NAFLD/NASH, improving ALT, liver fat content and insulin resistance. The 4mg dose of Saroglitazar also demonstrated significant improvements in lipid metabolism and lipoprotein particle composition. Overall, Saroglitazar was well-tolerated with a slight weight gain observed in patients.
