FEBS Lett. 1998 Sep 11;435(1):25-8. Glucocorticoids decrease cytochrome c oxidase activity of isolated rat kidney mitochondria. Simon N, Jolliet P, Morin C, Zini R, Urien S, Tillement JP. The importance of mitochondria is rising as a target in pathologic processes such as ischemia. We have investigated the effects of hydrocortisone, prednisolone, dexamethasone and triamcinolone on [...]

J Cosmet Dermatol. 2004 Apr;3(2):88-93. Nicotinic acid/niacinamide and the skin. Gehring W. Nicotinic acid (also generally known as niacin) and niacinamide (also known as nicotinamide) are similarly effective as a vitamin because they can be converted into each other within the organism. The blanket term vitamin B(3) is used for both. Niacinamide is a component [...]

Ann Nutr Aliment. 1975;29(4):305-12. [Effects of administering diets with starch or sucrose basis on certain parameters of calcium metabolism in the young, growing rat]. [Article in French] Artus M. The important role of many carbohydrates on calcium metabolism has been demonstrated by FOURNIER and DUPUIS. Starch, however, neither influences the absorption nor the retention of [...]
In adults, prostaglandins are known to be involved in many of the harmful effects of inflammation. They are formed from the polyunsaturated fats, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid, which we are unable to synthesize ourselves, so the adult’s exposure to the prostaglandins is influenced by diet. -Ray Peat, PhD Adv Shock Res. 1981;6:83-91. Implications for [...]
