Association of Complement-Related Proteins in Subjects With and Without Second Trimester Gestational Diabetes.
( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article)Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) development is related to underlying metabolic syndrome that is associated with elevated complement C3 and C4. Elevated C3 levels have been associated with preeclampsia and the development ... -
The association of HFE gene H63D polymorphism with endurance athlete status and aerobic capacity: novel findings and a meta-analysis.
( Springer , 2020 , Article)Iron is an important component of the oxygen-binding proteins and may be critical to optimal athletic performance. Previous studies have suggested that the G allele of C/G rare variant (rs1799945), which causes H63D amino ... -
Comparing Levels of Metabolic Predictors of Coronary Heart Disease between Healthy Lean and Overweight Females.
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)Screening for the metabolomic signature of coronary heart disease (CHD) before disease onset could help in early diagnosis and potentially disease prevention. In this study, the levels of 17 CHD metabolic biomarkers in ... -
Comparing metabolic profiles between female endurance athletes and non-athletes reveals differences in androgen and corticosteroid levels
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)Endurance training is associated with physiological changes in elite athletes, but little is known about female-specific effects of endurance training. Despite the significant rise in female sports participation, findings ... -
A comparison of isolation and culture protocols for human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells.
( Taylor and Francis , 2022 , Article Review)The successful translation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from bench to bedside is predicated upon their regenerative capabilities and immunomodulatory potential. Many challenges still exist in making MSCs a viable and ... -

( Frontiers Media , 2022 , Other)Genomics, transcriptomics and metabolomics are increasingly generating key insights for the development of precision approaches in heath and disease. Omics technologies have unlocked the high-throughput discovery of ... -
Empower Generations: Longitudinal Study for National Capacities in Life Sciences and Healthcare
(2021 , Article)Background: The decrease in the number of adolescents showing genuine interest in the fields of healthcare has been one of the recent concerns worldwide. A plethora of studies have discussed the factors that influence ... -
GATA-3 as a potential therapeutic target for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
( PubMed Central , 2020 , Article Review)Impaired adipogenesis plays an important role in the development of obesity-associated insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes as it leads to ectopic fat deposition. The anti-adipogenic transcription factor GATA-3 was ... -
Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals a Novel Association Between MYBPC3 Gene Polymorphism, Endurance Athlete Status, Aerobic Capacity and Steroid Metabolism.
( Frontiers Media , 2020 , Article)The genetic predisposition to elite athletic performance has been a controversial subject due to the underpowered studies and the small effect size of identified genetic variants. The aims of this study were to investigate ... -
High Endurance Elite Athletes Show Age-dependent Lower Levels of Circulating Complements Compared to Low/Moderate Endurance Elite Athletes
( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article)Introduction: Aerobic exercise activates the complement system in the peripheral blood. However, the effect of age and high intensity endurance training on the levels of circulating complements and sassociated inflammatory ... -
