From an Apple to a Pear: Moving Fat around for Reversing Insulin Resistance.
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article Review)
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a chronic condition where the body is resistant to insulin, leading to an elevated blood glucose state. Obesity is a main factor leading to T2D. Many clinical studies, however, have described a ...
Editorial: OMICS-based approaches in sports research volume II.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Other)
OMICS approaches, including genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, continue to provide invaluable tools for better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying various physiological ...
SARS-CoV-2 involvement in central nervous system tissue damage
(
Wolters Kluwer
, 2022 , Article Review)
As the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to spread globally, it became evident that the SARS-CoV-2 virus infects multiple organs including the brain. Several clinical studies revealed ...
Oxidative Stress-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction in Cardiovascular Diseases
(
IMR Press
, 2022 , Article Review)
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality worldwide. A better understanding of the mechanisms underlying CVD is key for better management or prevention. Oxidative stress has been strongly implicated in the ...

(
Frontiers Media
, 2022 , Article)
Collectively known as congenital heart defects (CHDs), cardiac abnormalities at birth are the most common forms of neonatal defects. Being principally responsible for the heart's pumping power, ventricles are particularly ...
In Vitro and In Vivo Validation of GATA-3 Suppression for Induction of Adipogenesis and Improving Insulin Sensitivity
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Impaired adipogenesis is associated with the development of insulin resistance and an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). GATA Binding Protein 3 (GATA3) is implicated in impaired adipogenesis and the onset of insulin ...

This study investigated the performance of a rapid point-of-care antibody test, the BioMedomics COVID-19 IgM/IgG Rapid Test, in comparison with a high-quality, validated, laboratory-based platform, the Roche Elecsys ...
The QChip1 knowledgebase and microarray for precision medicine in Qatar
(
Nature Research
, 2022 , Article)
Risk genes for Mendelian (single-gene) disorders (SGDs) are consistent across populations, but pathogenic risk variants that cause SGDs are typically population-private. The goal was to develop "QChip1," an inexpensive ...
