Arctic is contaminated with persistent organochlorine pollutants (POPs), and exposure to these compounds may differ between south and north in Norway. POPs may have negative impact on male reproductive characteristics. We compared serum levels of the CB-153 and p,p'-DDE in men who were born and had lived most of their lifetime south and north (close to or above the Arctic Circle) in Norway. We found no geographical differences in levels of CB-153 (south: 50 ng/g lipid (mean), north: 59 ng/g lipid; p = 0.27) or sperm parameters. However, the levels of AV-ODE were higher in south than in north (81 ng/g lipid (mean) vs. 66 ng/g lipid; p = 0.02), as were the levels of total and free testosterone. The FSH levels were lowest in south. A strong relationship between the CB-153 and the SHBG levels was observed. The regional differences observed for p,p'-DDE, testosterone and FSH were not reflected in the semen quality. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Temporal trends, 2000-2017, of perfluoroalkyl acid (PFAA) concentrations in serum of Swedish adolescents

Erika Noren, Christian Lindh, Anders Glynn, Lars Rylander, Daniela Pineda, Christel Nielsen

Summary: The study assessed temporal trends of PFAAs concentrations in serum of Swedish adolescents and found that some compounds decreased annually, while others increased up to 2009 and decreased thereafter. Sensitivity analysis showed consistent trends. Furthermore, the results indicated that PFAAs remain stable in serum samples after long-term storage.

Summary: The study aimed to examine the effect of a fish protein supplement made from by-products of Atlantic salmon production on blood concentrations of micronutrients. The results showed that the fish protein supplement significantly increased serum vitamin B12 and selenium concentrations, with no significant effect on other micronutrients.

Postprandial Effects of Salmon Fishmeal and Whey on Metabolic Markers in Serum and Gene Expression in Liver Cells

Summary: Fish is important for a healthy diet due to its content of long chain omega-3 fatty acids, but other nutrients and proteins may also play a role in its beneficial health effects. A study found that both salmon fishmeal and whey protein intake reduced glucose and triglyceride levels in the blood, and increased the concentration of 22 amino acids and derivatives. The study also showed that there were no significant differences in gene regulation between cells cultivated in fasting serum and postprandial serum after consuming fishmeal or whey.

Diverse Roles and Targets of miRNA in the Pathogenesis of Testicular Germ Cell Tumour

Mrinal K. Das, Oyvind P. Haugen, Trine B. Haugen

Summary: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer type among young adults in many parts of the world. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of non-coding RNAs, play important roles in TGCT pathogenesis by regulating gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. They can act as either oncogenes or tumour suppressors by influencing cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The involvement of miRNAs in TGCT development has been supported by differential expression studies and functional studies that explore individual miRNA targets and downstream pathways. This review summarises the diverse roles and targets of miRNAs in TGCT pathogenesis.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the cardiometabolic effects and metabolic tolerance in mice consuming fishmeal from salmon by-products. The results showed that fishmeal increased hepatic cholesterol content in mice, but had no significant effects on glucose tolerance and hepatic toxicity.

Summary: This study quantifies the occupational risk of COVID-19-related hospital admission in Denmark during 2020-2021 and finds that employees in healthcare, social care, and transportation occupations are at substantially increased risk. The study suggests the need to revisit safety measures and precautions in the workplace during the current and forthcoming pandemics.

Glycated Proteins, Glycine, Acetate, and Monounsaturated Fatty Acids May Act as New Biomarkers to Predict the Progression of Type 2 Diabetes: Secondary Analyses of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Summary: This study aimed to identify subgroups of individuals at increased risk of T2D and investigate the effects of fish protein on their cardiometabolic profiles. The results showed that the high insulin group had higher plasma concentrations of MUFAs and GlycA, and lower concentrations of glycine and acetate. However, intervention with fish protein only significantly increased acetate in the low insulin group.

Summary: This study investigated the toxic effects and mechanism of beta-CYP and EMB on the reproductive system of female rats. The results showed that exposure to these pesticides led to changes in hormone and gene expression in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, as well as alterations in oxidative damage indicators. The findings support the evaluation of the adverse effects of pesticide exposure on reproductive health in greenhouse operations.
