- Objective assessment of dietary nutrient content is essential in weight management and life-style interventions. Increasing evidence suggests that microRNAs (miRs) may be useful as biomarkers of nutritional status. The miRs are short non-coding RNAs that can be released by cells and circulate within the blood in a remarkably stable form. Modulation of circulating miR as well as tissue levels have…
- Food questionnaires and/or food diaries are commonly used to measure dietary intake in population based studies. Biomarkers, however, may provide more reliable intake measures than self-reported data. Unfortunately, only very few food biomarkers have been sufficiently validated.In December 2014, the JPI HDHL Food Biomarkers Alliance (FOODBALL) project commenced, which aims to develop strategies…
- Nutritional studies increasingly use new technologies that result in large data sets. The power of these technologies is that many parts of the human physiology are described, but makes it difficult for researchers to properly interpret the outcomes. Part of this problem is caused by the fact that the number of parameters measured is much greater than the number of participants in the survey…
