    • Cadmium Toxicity: Oxidative Stress, Inflammation and Tissue Injury 

      Das, Sandra Concepcion; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( Scientific Research Publishing , 2019 , Article Review)
      Cadmium is a known environmental pollutant targeting various organs. Often implicated in cadmium toxicology is the formation of reactive oxygen species, overwhelming the free radical scavenging mechanisms and inducing ...

    • Cadmium: An Emerging Role in Adipose Tissue Dysfunction 

      Attia, Sarra Mohammed; Varadharajan, Kavitha; Shanmugakonar, Muralitharan; Das, Sandra Concepcion; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( Springer , 2021 , Article Review)
      Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is widespread in the environment due to the substantial anthropogenic inputs from the agriculture and industrial sectors. The toxic impact of Cd adversely affects human health and ...

    • Chronic Cadmium Exposure Alters Cardiac Matrix Metalloproteinases in the Heart of Sprague-Dawley Rat 

      Das, Sandra Concepcion; Varadharajan, Kavitha; Shanmugakonar, Muralitharan; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( Frontiers Media , 2021 , Article)
      The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of chronic cadmium exposure in modulating cardiac matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the heart of rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 15 ppm CdCl2 in drinking ...

    • Early-Life Sugar Consumption Affects the Microbiome in Juvenile Mice 

      Alasmar, Reem Moath; Varadharajan, Kavitha; Shanmugakonar, Muralitharan; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( John Wiley and Sons Inc , 2022 , Article)
      Scope: The composition of the gut microbiota is influenced by the dietary nutrient. Sugar has been linked with many metabolic health disorders such as heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and immune disorders. Long-term ...

    • Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis and Their Impact on Biochemical and Inflammatory Profiles in Cafeteria Diet Fed Sprague Dawley Rats 

      Alasmar, Reem Moath; Varadharajan, Kavitha; Shanmugakonar, Muralitharan; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( Scientific Research Publishing , 2019 , Article)
      Gut microbiota plays a major role in regulating the host metabolism and immune system. However, the structure of microbiome population is altered constantly by diverse factors including diet and environment. In particular, ...

    • Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis in Cafeteria Diet Fed Sprague Dawley Rats 

      Varadharajan, Kavitha; Shanmugakonar, Muralitharan; Das, Sandra Concepcion; Al-Naemi, Hamda A. ( Scientific Research Publishing , 2018 , Article)
      Diet plays a major role in the body physiology and metabolism. The quantity, nature and stability of the macronutrients present in the diet have a major impact on the composition of gut microbiota. Gut microbiota plays a ...

    • In Vitro and In Vivo Validation of GATA-3 Suppression for Induction of Adipogenesis and Improving Insulin Sensitivity 

      Al-Jaber, Hend; Mohamed, Nura A.; Govindharajan, Vijay K.; Taha, Samir; John, Jomon; ... more authors ( 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 ...
