Cold-pressed extraction of perilla seed oil enriched with alpha-linolenic acid mitigates tumour progression and restores gut microbial homeostasis in the AOM/DSS mice model of colitis-associated colorectal cancer

Chawin Korsirikoon, Peerapa Techaniyom, Aikkarach Kettawan, Thanaporn Rungruang, Chanatip Metheetrairut , Pinidphon Prombutara, Aurawan Kringkasemsee Kettawan Abstract The present investigation explores into the influence of dietary nutrients, particularly alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-derived omega-3 fatty acid abundant in perilla seed oil (PSO), on the development of colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CRC). The study employs a mouse […]

Metabolic and genetic risk factors associated with pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes in Thai healthcare employees: A long-term study from the Siriraj Health (SIH) cohort study

Pichanun Mongkolsucharitkul, Apinya Surawit, Thamonwan Manosan, Suphawan Ophakas, Sophida Suta, Bonggochpass Pinsawas, Tanyaporn Pongkunakorn, Sureeporn Pumeiam, Winai Ratanasuwan, Mayuree Homsanit, Keerati Charoencholvanich, Yuthana Udomphorn, Bhoom Suktitipat, Korapat Mayurasakorn Abstract Background The study of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in a developing country like Thailand has rarely been conducted in long-term cohorts, especially among the working-age population. We […]

Is Exon Skipping a Viable Therapeutic Approach for Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome with Mutations in COL3A1 Exon 10 or 15?

Sasiwimon Utama, Jessica M. Cale, Chalermchai Mitrpant, Sue Fletcher, Steve D. Wilton, May T. Aung-Htut Abstract Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome or Ehlers–Danlos syndrome type IV (vEDS) is a connective tissue disorder characterised by skin hyperextensibility, joint hypermobility and fatal vascular rupture caused by COL3A1 mutations that affect collagen III expression, homo-trimer assembly and secretion. Along with […]

Comparative quantitative trait loci analysis framework reveals relationships between salt stress responsive phenotypes and pathways

Sunadda Phosuwan, Noppawan Nounjan, Piyada Theerakulpisut, Meechai Siangliw, Varodom Charoensawan Abstract Soil salinity is a complex abiotic stress that involves several biological pathways. Hence, focusing on a specific or a few salt-tolerant phenotypes is unlikely to provide comprehensive insights into the intricate and interwinding mechanisms that regulate salt responsiveness. In this study, we develop a […]
