Filter by:A randomized, open label, crossover study to explore drug-drug interactions between DWC20155 / DWC20156 and DWC20163 in Healthy Volunteers
Primary objective: The primary objective of this study is to assess the effect of Ginkgo biloba L. leaf extract (IDN 5933) in comparison to placebo in human subjects treated at therapeutic doses for 6 months on the level of DNA damage and genomic instability, measured with the Comet Assay and the Micronucleus assay, respectively . Secondary objective: The secondary objective of this study is to provide a preliminary assessment of the safety of Ginkgo biloba L. leaf extract (IDN 5933) in human subjects treated at therapeutic doses in term of adverse drug reaction, hepatotoxicity, genotoxicity.
The present study will seek to quantify the muscle protein synthetic response to mycoprotein feeding, comparing it to milk protein as a gold standard and heavily researched positive control
The present study is conceived as a pilot study aimed to determine the efficiency of the newly available Positron Emission Tomography (PET) - Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) hybrid scan technique for muscular activity evaluation, creation of anatomic images of muscle activity and resolution of metabolic activity distribution within exercising skeletal muscle.
Cerebral accumulation of tau and beta-amyloid are major factors of Alzheimer's disease pathology. A novel Positron Emission Tomography (PET) tracer (18-F-AV-1451) now offers the ability to study tau protein deposition in vivo in subjects, in which information on cerebral amyloid deposition has already been gathered. This enables to study effects of tau deposition on neuronal integrity, their relation to effects of beta-amyloid deposition and how this contributes to cognitive impairment or well-being in the elderly.
The purpose of this study is to develop computational methods for cross-comparison of muscle composition measurements in three laboratory ultrasound systems.
To assess growth of children (enrolled between 11.5 and 13.5 months) fed with two iso-energetic, young-child formulas with different protein content during the second year of life
Randomized placebo-controlled crossover study during which participants undergo two different experimental days. The participants consume a red grape based- drink (polyphenols: 300 mg/100 ml and sugar: 9.8g/100 ml) or a placebo (no polyphenols and sugar: 9.8g/100 ml). After 3 hours they consume a test meal (905 kcal, 15% protein, 46% fat, 39% CHO). Blood samples are taken at fasting, over 3 hours after drink consumption and over 5 hours after the test meal to evaluate metabolic response. Fasting and 48h-urine are collected to evaluate bioavailability.
While it is well accepted that a low level of RONS production is necessary to maintain physiological function, too much formation of RONS are believed to participate in biomolecules damage. Damage of lipids, proteins and DNA/RNA, to cellular and tissue level, as a consequence of oxidative stress has been linked to a number of serious diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) such as hypertension and atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's dementias, diabetes and the process of aging. The dietary intake of antioxidants is thought to play a major role in oxidative stress network. Many epidemiologic studies have reported an inverse association between vegetable and fruit consumption with reduced risk of chronic diseases, especially cancer and CVDs. However, although many clinical trials have been conducted with vitamins (E, C or their combinations) their in vivo protective effect remains uncertain. Therefore the possibility that the complex mixture of phytochemicals in foods may contribute to their protecting effects has been raised. In this concept, it is possible multiple compounds to act through complimentary or synergistic mechanisms to present a greater biologic effect than can be achieved by any individual component To investigate this hypothesis, a double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted in order to investigate the effects of a multi-micronutrient supplement against oxidative stress in apparently healthy adults.
A randomised, placebo-controlled, parallel human dietary intervention trial conducted in 33 healthy males to investigate the vascular and cognitive effects of bi-daily consumption of high-flavanol (epicatechin-rich) milk chocolate over a 2-week intervention period. Subjects visited the Hugh Sinclair Unit of Human Nutrition on 3 separate occasions; at the beginning, end and post-intervention.
