Protein glycation – biomarkers of metabolic dysfunction and early-stage decline in health in the era of precision medicine
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Protein glycation provides a biomarker in widespread clinical use, glycated hemoglobin HbA1c (A1C). It is a biomarker for diagnosis of diabetes and prediabetes and of medium-term glycemic control in patients with established ... -
Potassium Ion Channels in Glioma: From Basic Knowledge into Therapeutic Applications
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2023 , Article)Ion channels, specifically those controlling the flux of potassium across cell membranes, have recently been shown to exhibit an important role in the pathophysiology of glioma, the most common primary central nervous ... -
Enteric pathogens modulate metabolic homeostasis in the Drosophila melanogaster host
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)On quotidian basis, living beings work out an armistice with their microbial flora and a scuffle with invading pathogens to maintain a normal state of health. Although producing virulence factors and escaping the host's ... -
