Further Exploration on the Effects of Sweetener Stevia on Human Gut Microbiota
1. Introduction The gut microbiota has long been regarded as one of the key elements contributing to the regulation of host health. Any changes in the composition or quality of the gut microbiota may have physiological consequences for the host. To determine the effect of sweetener stevia (also known as stevioside) on the gut microbiome of healthy population, the stool samples are collected from healthy participants who consume with or without five drops of the sweetener stevia twice daily. Following analyses of 16S rRNA sequencing method, no large-scale change is found in the gut microbiota post 12 weeks of consumption with stevia, hinting the safety of stevia. 2. Insignificant changes in the alpha or beta diversity following consumption of stevia It is discovered that there is no significant difference in alpha diversity (in terms of observed taxa, evenness and Shannon Index) and beta diversity (with regard to PCoA, PERMANOVA, and Jaccard Index) between groups. Nevertheless, PCoA plots shows strong separation along the x-axis. In addition, the community composition in each group is relatively even over time and equally diverse. 3. No clear difference in relative abundances of taxa At the genus level, relative abundances are similar between the control and stevia groups. No major difference is observed in relative abundances at the class, order and family level. Strikingly, butyricoccus is the only one identified taxon exhibiting significant difference at baseline, but not after 12 weeks of stevia consumption. Moreover, Collinsella and Aldercreutzia are two coprococcus species identified as explicitly different at baseline (one higher and one lower when comparing stevia vs. control), which however are significantly elevated after 12 weeks of consumption with stevia. 4. The safe intake volume of sweetener steviol glycosides In the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), there is a Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF), which is responsible for evaluating the safety of food additives and establishing acceptable daily intake levels for safe use. Steviol glycosides, one of the extract from stevia, is evaluated by the FAF as well. In accordance to the latest toxicological test, this sweeter is not genotoxic and carcinogenic, without any adverse effects on the human reproductive system or growing children. The expert group has set the acceptable daily intake (ADI) of steviol glycosides at 4 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day, which is consistent with the level determined by the Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) administered by the US Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Health Organization (WHO). 5. Conclusion Regular, long-term consumption of stevia does not overtly alter the composition of the human gut microbiotia. Stevia can be safe as long as the intake volume is controlled appropriately.

How to Maintain NAD+ Homeostasis to Regulate Mitochondrial and Cardiac Function
1. Introduction Mitochondria are the center of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes, which are necessary for maintaining normal myocardial contractility and cardiac function. Typically, the development of cardiovascular disease is usually accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction. Impaired autophagy is known to cause mitochondrial dysfunction and heart failure, in part due to altered mitophagy and protein quality control. Notably, external replenishment of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) precursors can enhance autophagy and mitochondrial quality control to maintain metabolic health, thereby regulate mitochondrial and cardiac function. 2. NAD+ metabolism in mitochondrial and cardiac function Cardiomyocytes accumulate NAD+ mostly within their mitochondria, where the bulk of cellular oxidation-reduction reactions occur. However, NAD+ is also present in the cytosol and nucleus, in which NAD+-derived metabolites and NAD+-dependent enzymes contribute to various cellular functions. 3. Mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction induced by NAD+ deficiency Mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction triggered by NAD+ deficiency is alleviated in cAtg3-KO mouse hearts post the administration of β-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), as evidenced by the restoration of citrate synthase (CS) activity, partial normalization of ATP level and NPPB mRNA expression in cAtg3-KO mice as well as upregulation of ADP level in WT mouse hearts. Besides, NNMT inhibition can rescue mitochondrial and cardiac dysfunction in cAtg3-KO mice by restoring NAD+ level. 4. The impact of autophagic flux upon cardiac and mitochondrial function Autophagy is an intracellular degradation pathway that recycles subcellular components, playing a critical in modulating metabolic homeostasis. Autophagic flux, a central homeostatic mechanism that degrades materials toxic to cardiomyocytes, can mediate SQSTM1-NF-κB-NNMT signal transduction to control the cellular level of NAD+, thereby maintaining the mitochondrial and cardiac function. 5. Conclusion Autophagic flux may be a potential way to maintain the cellular level of NAD to regulate mitochondrial and cardiac fiunction. . Reference [1] Abdellatif M, Sedej S, Kroemer G.

The Miraculous Potency of NR-CL on Mitigating Ischemia-induced Hippocampal Damage and Maintaining Cognitive Function
1 Introduction Nicotinamide riboside (NR), a derivative of vitamin B3, is a new type of bioactive substance, which can be generated by binding a carbohydrate molecular ribose with nicotinamide (also known as niacin or vitamin B3). Nicotinamide riboside chloride (NRC/NR-CL) is a chloride salt form of NR. In daily life, NR-CL can be taken from NR supplements and food such as meat, fish and cereals. A recent study has revealed that NR-CL protects the hippocampus and ultimately promotes the recovery of cognitive function after brain ischemia. 2. The ameliorating impact of NRC upon ischemia-induced cognitive deficits Ischemia-induced cognitive deficits are ameliorated post NRC treatment. Specifically, NRC treatment improves the learning ability of mice, as evidenced by the shorter latency and the decreased path length. The hippocampal protection provided by NRC contributes to the recovery of spatial learning and memory after the ischemic insult. Figure 1 Acute NRC treatment potentiates cognitive recovery after ischemia 3. Reduction of the infarct volume in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment After ischemia, there are deformed cell bodies, condensed nuclear chromatin, increased intracellular cell gaps, loosened cell arrangements and blurred visible staining in the damaged pyramidal neurons. NRC treatment partially offsets these morphological changes. Figure 2 Acute NRC treatment reduces the hippocampal infarct volume. 4. Recovery of neuronal damage in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment After ischemia, brain damage emerges due to energy crisis-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, followed by the cell loss and neuronal apoptosis. NRC treatment leads to an increase in the number of positive cells, signifying the recovery of local neuronal loss. Figure 3 Acute NRC treatment attenuates neuronal loss in the hippocampus. 5. Upregulation of NAD and ATP levels in the hippocampus post acute NRC treatment By repleshing the production of NAD, acute treatment with NRC, to some extent, can salvage the energy supply in the hippocampus, which conspicuously enhances the recovery of ATP level. 6. Conclusion Collectively, acute NRC treatment increases the energy supply and reduces the neuronal loss to protect the hippocampus, thereby facilitating the recovery of cognitive function. NR-CL (ie. NRC) is a very promising component of health care products and has a wide range of application prospects. Before use, one should follow the guidance of professionals. At the same time, attention should be paid to reasonable intake and safe use to avoid the adverse effects of excessive use.
