This article reviews what is presently known about the biological roles of the diet-derived
compound ergothioneine (ET). ET seems important to humans because it is rapidly taken up …

In this mini-reflection, I explain how during my doctoral work in a Botany Department I first
became interested in H 2 O 2 and later in my career in other reactive oxygen species …

Lysophosphatidylcholines (LPCs) are phospholipids critical in the synthesis of cardiolipin,
an essential component of mitochondrial membranes. Lower plasma LPCs have been cross …

The dietary thione‐thiol, ergothioneine (ET), accumulates in human and animal tissues and

Investigating associations between metabolites and late midlife cognitive function could
reveal potential markers and mechanisms relevant to early dementia. Here, we …

Experiencing decline in both cognition and mobility is associated with a substantially higher
dementia risk than cognitive decline only. Metabolites associated with both cognitive and …

We recently found that dual decline in memory and gait speed was consistently associated
with an increased risk of dementia compared to decline in memory or gait only or no decline …
