FOLSOM, Calif – ( ARAB NEWSWIRE ) -- تستعرض دراسة فرعية أُجريت لتجربة الجوز والشيخوخة الصحية ( Waha ) في تفاعل استهلاك الجوز والتغيرات في نشر جزيئات الحمض النووي الريبوزي منقوص الأكسجين وانخفاض البروتين الدهني منخفض الكثافة لدى كبار السن. يستكشف منشور جديد في مجلة Nutrients الآليات التي يمكن أن تكون مرتبطة بـ "انخفاض انتقال الخلايا وغزوها في العديد من أنواع السرطانات، ويقترح آلية جديدة للجوز في خطر الإصابة بالسرطان". يشارك الباحثون أن، "دراسة WAHA (الجوز والشيخوخة الصحية) هي بمثابة تجربة سريرية عشوائية أُجريت على كبار السن الذين يعيشون بحرّية بهدف تقييم تأثيرات استهلاك الجوز على كبار السن الأصحاء (من سن 63 إلى 79 عامًا)." لقد ذكرنا بالفعل أنه بالمقارنة مع مجموعة المراقبة (النظام الغذائي المعتاد مع الامتناع عن تناول الجوز)، فقد أدى استهلاك الجوز لمدة عامين إلى تحسين نسبة الدهون الصيامية. نهدف هنا إلى تقديم تصور آلية إضافية لهذه النتائج، ولا سيما تقليل الكوليسترول الضار. بالنظر إلى أن التغييرات لمدة عام واحد في c-miRNAs في مجموعة فرعية محددة هي نتيجة ثانوية محددة م

FOLSOM, Calif – (ARAB NEWSWIRE) -- A new publication in Nutrients explores mechanisms that may be related to "reduced cell migration and invasion in several carcinomas, suggests a novel mechanism of walnuts in cancer risk". Investigators share, "The WAHA study (Walnuts and Healthy Aging) is a randomized, clinical trial conducted in free-living elders aimed at evaluating the effects of walnut consumption in cognitively healthy elders (63 to 79 years-old). We already reported that compared to the control group (usual diet with abstention from walnuts), consumption of walnuts for 2 years improved fasting lipids. Here we aimed at providing a further mechanistic insight of these results, in particular the reduction of LDL-C. Given that 1-year changes in c-miRNAs in a selected subset is a secondary prespecified WAHA outcome, we hypothesized that the expected LDL-C reduction after one year of walnut consumption would be partly mediated by changes in c-miRNAs."  (1) Regular
