Varying magnesium concentration elicits changes in inflammatory response in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) (2018)
Journal Article
Almousa, L. A., Salter, A. M., & Langley-Evans, S. C. (2018). Varying magnesium concentration elicits changes in inflammatory response in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Magnesium Research, 31(3), 99-109. https://doi.org/10.1684/mrh.2018.0439

The aims of this study were to determine whether low concentrations of magnesium in vitro exacerbated the human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) response to inflammatory challenge, and whether expression of the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain...

Magnesium deficiency heightens lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and enhances monocyte adhesion in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (2018)
Journal Article
Langley-Evans, S., Almousa, L., & Salter, A. (2018). Magnesium deficiency heightens lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and enhances monocyte adhesion in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Magnesium Research, 31(2), 39-48. doi:10.1684/mrh.2018.0436

Given a possible anti-inflammatory role of magnesium in endothelial cells, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of magnesium on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) viability, gene expression, and the pro-inflammatory respons...

Exposure to maternal cafeteria diets during the suckling period has greater effects on fat deposition and Sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) gene expression in rodent offspring compared to exposure before birth (2018)
Journal Article
Vithayathil, M., Gugusheff, J., Ong, Z., Langley-Evans, S. C., Gibson, R., & Muhlhausler, B. (in press). Exposure to maternal cafeteria diets during the suckling period has greater effects on fat deposition and Sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) gene expression in rodent offspring compared to exposure before birth. Nutrition and Metabolism, 15(17), https://doi.org/10.1186/s12986-018-0253-3

Background: While the adverse metabolic effects of exposure to obesogenic diets during both the prenatal and early postnatal period are well established, the relative impact of exposure during these separate developmental windows remains unclear. O...
