Therapeutic Potential of Nutraceuticals and Dietary Supplements in the Prevention of Viral Diseases: A Review

Saumya Singh, Prithwish Kola, Dalveer Kaur, Gisha Singla, Vibhu Mishra, Parmjit S. Panesar, Kumar Mallikarjunan, Meena Krishania

Summary: Despite significant scientific advancements, viral diseases continue to be the leading cause of illness worldwide, with the potential for pandemics. Nutrition plays a crucial role in supporting the immune system and combating various viral infections. Studies suggest that bioactive compounds such as nutraceuticals, vitamins, and functional foods, along with milk proteins and peptides, can strengthen the immune system and aid in treating virus-induced infections.

Dietary Supplements for Erectile Dysfunction: Analysis of Marketed Products, Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis and Rational Use

Gabriel Cosmin Petre, Francesco Francini-Pesenti, Amerigo Vitagliano, Giuseppe Grande, Alberto Ferlin, Andrea Garolla

Summary: The use of nutraceutical products for male sexual enhancement, especially in treating erectile dysfunction, has a long history. Alternative treatments for erectile dysfunction are gaining popularity, with increasing interest from consumers and higher revenue for manufacturers. Dietary supplements, which are a combination of active ingredients, are mainly sold online. However, studies have not provided sufficient evidence to consider these products as a first-line therapy, raising doubts about their real effectiveness. A systematic review of the literature identified some nutraceuticals, such as Panax ginseng, Tribulus terrestris, and L-arginine, that can improve male sexual function.

Systematic Review and Critical Analysis on Dietary Supplements for Male Infertility: From a Blend of Ingredients to a Rationale Strategy

Andrea Garolla, Gabriel Cosmin Petre, Francesco Francini-Pesenti, Luca De Toni, Amerigo Vitagliano, Andrea Di Nisio, Giuseppe Grande, Carlo Foresta

Summary: A systematic review of dietary supplements for male infertility in Italy revealed that many supplements on the market contain a blend of ingredients with negligible doses or without any evidence of efficacy. However, some ingredients have been shown to be effective on specific sperm parameters. This study can assist in selecting supplements that are more likely to be effective on specific sperm alterations.

The Circadian Biology of Heart Failure

Nadim El Jamal, Ronan Lordan, Sarah L. Teegarden, Tilo Grosser, Garret FitzGerald

Summary: Cardiac physiology is regulated by autonomous molecular clocks and the suprachiasmatic nucleus, exhibiting diurnal rhythms. Disrupting molecular clocks can lead to heart failure, and the time of day can condition myocardial response to injury. Human studies support the involvement of molecular clocks and circadian rhythms in the pathogenesis of heart failure. Certain circadian rhythms are maintained in heart failure patients, which can guide optimal timing of therapy. Manipulation of circadian rhythms and molecular clocks show promise in the prevention and treatment of heart failure.

Modulation of the Immune Response to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Vaccination by Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs

Lahens, Sigrid Gouma, Elizabeth Troisi, Arjun Sengupta, Aalim M. Weljie, Wenzhao Meng, Eline T. Luning Prak, Kendall Lundgreen, Paul Bates, Hu Meng, Garret A. FitzGerald

Summary: In this small pilot study, it was found that the immune response elicited by the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine was not affected by concomitant use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The absence of significant immunomodulation signals suggests that NSAIDs do not impact vaccine efficacy. The gathered information may be useful for designing a larger clinical trial.

Sexual dimorphism in the response to chronic circadian misalignment on a high-fat diet

Sean T. Anderson, Hu Meng, Thomas G. Brooks, Soon Yew Tang, Ronan Lordan, Arjun Sengupta, Soumyashant Nayak, Antonijo Mrela, Dimitra Sarantopoulou, Nicholas F. Lahens, Aalim Weljie, Gregory R. Grant, Frederic D. Bushman, Garret A. FitzGerald

Summary: Longitudinal studies suggest a relationship between shiftwork and cardiometabolic disorders, but the causes and mechanisms are not clear. We developed a mouse model to study circadian misalignment in both sexes and found that female mice showed preserved rhythmicity and were protected from the cardiometabolic effects of misalignment on a high-fat diet. Differences were observed in the liver transcriptome and proteome, as well as gut microbiome dysbiosis, which only occurred in male mice. Antibiotic treatment reduced the impact of misalignment. In the UK Biobank, female shiftworkers demonstrated stronger circadian rhythmicity and a lower incidence of metabolic syndrome compared to males. Our findings suggest that females are more resilient to chronic circadian misalignment, and this difference is conserved in humans.

Summary: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally. Dietary modification, specifically the supplementation of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) and polar lipids (PLs), has shown potential in preventing and reducing the burden of cardiovascular diseases. Clinical trials, such as the REDUCE-IT and STRENGTH trials, provide insights into the effectiveness of n-3 PUFAs in primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases. However, further research is needed to determine the potential benefits of PL supplementation in reducing cardiovascular risk.
