Thirty days of supplementation with PQQ reprograms immunometabolic networks in Western diet-fed female baboons

This study shows that 30 days of PQQ supplementation reduces inflammation and cholesterol in Western diet-fed baboons, altering immunometabolic networks through FOXA2 and NTRK1 pathways.

Maternal Obesity Decreases Offspring Lifespan

This study shows maternal obesity reduces offspring lifespan in mice, linked to early developmental fibrotic changes across multiple organs.

Western diet-induced shifts in the maternal microbiome are associated with altered microRNA expression in baboon placenta and fetal liver

This study shows that a Western diet in pregnant baboons alters the maternal microbiome and miRNA expression in placenta and fetal liver, potentially contributing to NAFLD and metabolic disease risk in offspring.
