  Lfestyle factors including smoking, lack of exercise, poor dietary habits as well as low socioeconomic status are associated with the development of MetS. Diet is considered one of the major contributors to MetS. Adherence to the Mediterranean diet (high intake of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, olive oil, fish, low-fat dairy products, and moderate wine consumption) has been associated with lower prevalence of MetS. Interventions utilizing this dietary approach have proven to be successful in reducing some of the associated metabolic abnormalities.

  Modulation of Protein Quality Control Systems as Novel Mechanisms Underlying Functionality of Food Phytochemicals

summary:
  Many recent studies have indicated that protein quality control (PQC) systems play key roles in counteracting ‘proteo-stress’, which is comprised of several processes, including protein refolding by heat shock proteins (HSPs) and degradation of abnormal proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system as well as autophagy. Objective: Phytochemicals are xenobiotics, thus their biochemical interactions with animal proteins are considered to occur in a non-specific manner, which raises the possibility that some phytochemicals cause proteo-stress for activating PQC systems.

  Polysaccharides from split gill mushrooms (Schizophyllum commune Fr.) improve glucose metabolism and reduce muscleinflammation in a rat model of type 2 diabetes

summary:
  Treatment with S. commune polysaccharides significantly lowered blood glucose levels, reduced inflammatory markers, and restored the expression of GLUT4 and GLP-1R, with results comparable to metformin-treated rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: normal diet (ND), ND with 240 mg/kg body weight (BW) S. commune polysaccharides (ND240), high-fat diet-induced diabetic rats (HFD+DM), HFD+DM treated with S. commune polysaccharides (HFD+S240), and HFD+DM treated with metformin (HFD+Met).
