Table1_Targeted Plasmalogen Supplementation: Effects on Blood Plasmalogens, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, Cognition, and Mobility in Cognitively Impaired Persons.DOCX by Dayan B. Goodenowe (13004757)

“…Administration of 1-O-alkyl-2-acylglycerol (AAG) plasmalogen precursors containing DHA at the sn-2 position dose-dependently increase blood DHA plasmalogens and are neuroprotective in animal models of neurodegeneration at doses between 10 and 50 mg/kg. We conducted an investigational clinical trial in 22 cognitively impaired persons to evaluate the effects of an escalating oral dosing regimen of DHA-AAG from 900 to 3,600 mg/day over a 4-month period on blood serum plasmalogen and non-plasmalogen phospholipids and oxidative stress biomarkers. …”

IIS balances anti-proliferating (tumor-suppressive) and pro-proliferating (oncogenic) activities across tissue boundaries. by Wenjing Qi (142213)

“…Signaling activities of at least two tissues contribute to IIS homeostasis and may explain, why DAF-16 hyperactivity (in the hypodermis) may cause germline tumors in <i>daf-2(+)</i> background, whereas <i>daf-2(-)</i> (or starvation) decreases DAF-16 oncogenic potential, although in a simplistic view, it is thought to activate DAF-16.…”
