Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (Stat3) suppresses stat1/interferon signaling pathway and inflammation in senescent preadipocytes
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
© 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Obesity promotes premature aging and dysfunction of white adipose tissue (WAT) through the accumulation of cellular senescence. The senescent cells burden in WAT ...
Metabolic consequences of obesity on the hypercoagulable state of polycystic ovary syndrome.
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women have a hypercoagulable state; however, whether this is intrinsically due to PCOS or, alternatively, a consequence of its metabolic complications is unclear. We determined plasma ...
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 ...
Sestrin2 suppression aggravates oxidative stress and apoptosis in endothelial cells subjected to pharmacologically induced endoplasmic reticulum stress
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an inflammatory response that contributes to endothelial dysfunction, a hallmark of cardiovascular diseases, in close interplay with oxidative stress. Recently, Sestrin2 (SESN2) emerged ...
Level of Maternal Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) F Antibodies in Hospitalized Children and Correlates of Protection.
(2021)
RSV is a major cause of lower respiratory infections among children, where no vaccine is available. The stabilized form of the fusion (F) protein, pre-F, is a leading vaccine candidate targeting different populations, ...
Age and sport intensity-dependent changes in cytokines and telomere length in elite athletes
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article Review)
Background: Exercise-associated immune response plays a crucial role in the aging process. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of sport intensity on cytokine levels, oxidative stress markers and telomere ...
Metabolomic Profiling of Pregnancies With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Identifies a Unique Metabolic Signature and Potential Predictive Biomarkers of Low Birth Weight
(
Frontiers Media
, 2021 , Article)
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex syndrome with clinical features of an endocrine/metabolic disorder. Various metabolites show significant association with PCOS; however, studies comparing the metabolic profile ...
Predictive Biomarkers of Intensive Care Unit and Mechanical Ventilation Duration in Critically-Ill Coronavirus Disease 2019 Patients.
(
Frontiers Media
, 2021 , Article)
Detection of early metabolic changes in critically-ill coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients under invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) at the intensive care unit (ICU) could predict recovery patterns and help in ...
Role of Inflammatory Cytokines, Growth Factors and Adipokines in Adipogenesis and Insulin Resistance
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article Review)
Obesity, manifested by increased adiposity, represents a main cause of morbidity in the developed countries, causing increased risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recruitment of macrophages and activation ...
