When it comes to the fascinating world of proteins, some names like collagen or hemoglobin might ring a bell. But what about tenascin-C, more commonly known as TNC protein? This often-overlooked molecule plays a vital, if subtle, role in how our cells talk to each other. Let's delve into the remarkable story of TNC protein and why it deserves more of the spotlight. What is TNC Protein? Before ...
Blood transfusions during these critical times can be lifesaving, replenishing lost blood and restoring haemoglobin levels to ensure adequate oxygen delivery to vital organs and the foetus. ...
Abstract Background: Assessment of short-term glycemic control can facilitate monitoring of diabetes development in at-risk individuals and monitoring response to lifestyle modification or medication. We evaluated salivary protein glycosylation levels as a novel, noninvasive, short-term glycemic index in comparison to hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fructosamine, 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG), and ...
Dr. Clarice Reid was a trailblazer in the field of sickle cell disease, dedicating her life and career to improving the lives of those affected by this debilitating genetic blood disorder. As a pioneering black woman in the field of medicine and science, Dr. Reid’s work has made a significant impact on our understanding of this condition and has paved the way for the development of ...
While open relationships can be problematic, combining the open standards FHIR and BPM+ Health with Medical Algorithms is a match made in heaven. This combination has the potential to revolutionize healthcare. To see why this statement is true, let’s first introduce the participants. ...
Overview of Cytochrome P450 Cytochrome P450 (CYP450), is a family of hemoglobin-coupled monooxygenases. In mammals, CYP450 oxidizes steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics, playing an important role in the metabolism of various compounds as well as in the synthesis and breakdown of hormones. In plants, they regulate the synthesis of defense compounds, fatty acids, and hormones. With the progress ...
According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC report 2017; 30.3 million Americans – 9.4 percent of the U.S. population had diabetes in 2015. Home blood glucose monitoring is useful to determine the daily adjustments in treatment or insulin intake. It is advised to follow doctor's recommendations about how often to test the glucose levels. According to an article published ...
Abstract Background: To describe the surgical technique and our initial experience of single-port laparoscopic neosalpingostomy (SP-LN) for treatment of hydrosalpinx. Materials and methods: This prospective observational study was carried out at University teaching hospitals. Ten women underwent SP-LN for hydrosalpinx between November 2012 and December 2015. Results: The mean (range) age and ...
Do you suddenly find that your teeth become very fragile, you will start to have a toothache when you drink cold water, eat ice-cream, and even when you brush your teeth? This is the symptom of tooth sensitivity. Compared to conventional desensitizing topical agents, the laser treatment leads to rapid results with less application time and more quickly for the patient. The discomfort of patients ...

Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. Most of the food you eat is broken down into sugar and released into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key turning on cells with sugar as fuel (energy). Diabetes affects your body’s ability to produce or use that insulin. ...
Compared to traditional treatments, the main principle of dental diode laser cutting soft tissue is to heat the tissue with a hot tip contact. By converting light energy into heat energy at the tip end, the high temperature can be high enough to evaporate the soft tissue. Dental diode lasers have significant advantages, mainly scarless wound healing and improved bacterial reduction. For patients, ...

Many may not have heard of nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) yet it is a very common condition. If NAFL is not addressed, it can progress to a serious condition known as Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) Non-alcoholic fatty liver is the buildup of extra fat in liver cells that is not caused by alcohol. It is normal for the liver to contain some fat. However, if more than 5% -10% percent of ...

Abstract Class 1 plant hemoglobins (phytoglobins) are upregulated during low-oxygen stress and participate in metabolism and cell signaling via modulation of the levels of nitric oxide (NO). We studied the effects of overexpression and knockdown of the class 1 phytoglobin gene in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) under low-oxygen stress. The overexpression of phytoglobin reduced the amount of NO ...
New data on the nature of the protein targets of U within the zebrafish gills were collected after waterborne exposure to better understand uranium (U) toxicity mechanisms. This study evidenced some common characteristics of the U protein target binding properties such as their role in other essential metals regulation and their phosphorus content. In total 21 potential protein targets, ...
We examined the impact of an ultra‐low volume (ULV) formulation of the organophosphorus insecticide, fenitrothion (O,O‐dimethyl‐O‐(3‐methyl‐4‐nitrophenol)‐phosphorothioate), on a suite of physiological measures that affect the ability of animals to survive in free‐living conditions; namely, locomotory and thermogenic functions, metabolic performance, body mass, haematocrit and ...
The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of tobacco on different biochemical and physical parameters in type 2 diabetic subjects from Dera Ismail Khan, NWFP, Pakistan. A total of 100 chronic type 2 diabetic patients of different age and sex with no tobacco addiction and with tobacco addiction were requested to volunteer their complete biodata on a given Performa. Blood biochemical ...
Women in the TG consumed 50 g of periwinkle daily for six weeks with their normal diet while those in the CG consumed only the normal diet. Haemoglobin (Hb) and serum ferritin (SF) levels of the women were taken at baseline and at the end of the study. ...
Children's were grouped into moderate anaemic, mild anaemic and non-anaemic. Haemoglobin levels were estimated by cyanmethaemoglobin method. Results indicate that 53.33% were mild anaemic, 12% moderate anaemic and 34.67% non-anaemic. Results significantly (p Keywords: anaemia, anthropometrics, cognitive development, intelligence, nutrition, school children, child development, ...
In the process of cold adaptation, the evolutionary trend of Antarctic fish has led to unique specialisations, including modification of haematological characteristics, e.g. decreased amounts and multiplicity of haemoglobins. Unlike Antarctic Notothenioidei, Arctic teleosts have high haemoglobin multiplicity. Although the presence of functionally and ...
