Scientific Evidence Supporting the Beneficial Effects of Isoflavones on Human Health
(MDPI, 2020-12-17)
Isoflavones are phenolic compounds with a chemical structure similar to that of estradiol. They are present in several vegetables, mainly in legumes such as soy, white and red clover, alfalfa and beans. The most significant ...
Gene–Diet Interactions in Colorectal Cancer: Survey Design, Instruments, Participants and Descriptive Data of a Case–Control Study in the Basque Country
(MDPI, 2020)
Epidemiologic studies have revealed inconsistent evidence of gene-diet interaction in
relation to colorectal cancer (CRC). The aim of this study was to analyze them in a sample of cases and
controls from the population-based ...

BSA- and Elastin-Coated GO, but Not Collagen-Coated GO, Enhance the Biological Performance of Alginate Hydrogels
(MDPI, 2020-06-11)
The use of embedded cells within alginate matrices is a developing technique with great clinical applications in cell-based therapies. However, one feature that needs additional investigation is the improvement of ...
Overcoming the Inflammatory Stage of Non-Healing Wounds: In Vitro Mechanism of Action of Negatively Charged Microspheres (NCMs)
(MDPI, 2020-06-03)
Negatively charged microspheres (NCMs) represent a new therapeutic approach for wound healing since recent clinical trials have shown NCM efficacy in the recovery of hard-to-heal wounds that tend to stay in the inflammatory ...
