Eating tangerines helps detect diseases through gene expression

He eats Tangerine also Orange Enriching the diet can help Disease detectionThis is according to a pioneering study that revealed that eating this fruit encourages the study of genomic expression and identification of genes.

Nutritional analysis project. to Supplementary meals With citrus fruits, promoted by the Health Research Institute Enclavefrom the University Clinical Hospital of Valencia and the Agriculture and Environment Foundation of Valencia (Fofama) from the Valencian Farmers Association (AVA-handle), confirmed – in cooperation with the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV)- Citrus consumption has the ability to significantly modify gene expression.

The first conclusions open the door for validation studies to determine the specific benefits of these foods in various fields of biomedicine and human health based on the modulation of specific genes and biological pathways.

Nutrients affect the balance between health and disease, and fruits such as oranges and tangerines allow…Bioinformatics analysis At various levels, including for the first time, in a study of this kind, the use of machine learning approaches.

Essential citrus fruits, as well as orange and tangerine varieties grown in the Valencian Community, provide this valuable new information. Regional clerk of agriculture, Vicente TejedoHe highlighted the “remarkable nutritional properties” of this fruit and noted that “science dismantles the stupid lies about the supposed harms of orange juice, as its consumption improves health, rural economy and territorial welfare.”

Overall, the results obtained allow us to confirm that these diets are able to significantly modify in vivo (in mice) Gene expression In different organs.

The magnitude of the tissue-by-tissue response to the diet supplemented with tangerines is much greater than that obtained with oranges in almost all organs analysed.

The first two devices analyzed are heart and brain. At the first level, positive correlations were identified in expression changes in genes associated with an increase in… Cellular respirationfor mitochondrial function, as well as its potential response to oxidative and vascular stress, indicating a potential positive effect on the functioning of this organ.

A second, also relevant finding in the heart, from mandarin intake, is a significant reduction in TGF-β, a biomarker often found to be increased in various types of cancer.
