TGF-β Prevents Phosphate-Induced Osteogenesis through Inhibition of BMP and Wnt/β-Catenin Pathways
(Public Library of Science, 2014)Background: Transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) is a key cytokine during differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). High phosphate induces a phenotypic transformation of ... -
The APOB -516C/T polymorphism has no effect on lipid and apolipoprotein response following changes in dietary fat intake in a healthy population
(Elsevier, 2007)Our goal was to determine whether the presence of the −516C/T polymorphism in the APOB gene promoter modifies the lipid response to changes in the amount and quality of dietary fat. We studied 97 young healthy volunteers ... -
The Apolipoprotein E Gene Promoter (−219G/T) Polymorphism Determines Insulin Sensitivity in Response to Dietary Fat in Healthy Young Adults
(Elsevier, 2005)Insulin sensitivity (IS) is determined by genetic and environmental factors, including diet. The apoE gene promoter −219G/T polymorphism is associated with coronary heart disease and increased postprandial triacylglycerol-rich ... -
The clinical and molecular cardiometabolic fingerprint of an exploratory psoriatic arthritis cohort is associated with the disease activity and differentially modulated by methotrexate and apremilast
(Wiley, 2022)Objectives: (1) To evaluate clinical and molecular cardiovascular disease (CVD) signs and their relationship with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) features and (2) to identify a clinical patient profile susceptible to benefit ... -
The Combination of Neutrophil–Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet–Lymphocyte Ratio with Liquid Biopsy Biomarkers Improves Prognosis Prediction in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
(MDPI, 2021)Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with a highly inflammatory microenvironment and liquid biopsy has emerged as a promising tool for the noninvasive analysis of this tumor. In this study, plasma ... -
The Effect of Dietary Fat on LDL Size Is Influenced by Apolipoprotein E Genotype in Healthy Subjects
(American Society for Nutrition, 2004)LDL particle size is dependent on both genetic factors and environmental factors such as dietary fat composition. The apolipoprotein E (apoE) genotype is a major genetic determinant of LDL size. Thus, the aim of this work ... -
The influence of the apolipoprotein E gene promoter (-219G/T) polymorphism on postprandial lipoprotein metabolism in young normolipemic males
(ASBMB, 2003)The apolipoprotein E (apoE) gene promoter (−219G/T) polymorphism has been associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction, premature coronary heart disease, and decreased plasma apoE concentrations. We examined ... -
The Metabolic Impact of Two Different Parenteral Nutrition Lipid Emulsions in Children after Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Lipidomics Investigation
(MDPI, 2022)Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) involves the infusion of either bone marrow or blood cells preceded by toxic chemotherapy. However, there is little knowledge about the clinical benefits of parenteral nutrition ... -
The Role of Emotional Regulation and Affective Balance on Health Perception in Cardiovascular Disease Patients According to Sex Differences
(MDPI, 2020)One of the challenges of aging is the increase of people with chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). Men and women experience the disease differently. Therefore, it has an impact on how CVD is treated and ... -
The Usefulness of Coregistration with iFR in Tandem or Long Diffuse Coronary Lesions: The iLARDI Randomized Clinical Trial
(MDPI, 2024)Background. Despite technical advancements, patients with sequential or diffuse coronary lesions undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have an increased risk of cardiovascular events at follow-up. We aimed ... -
Transcriptomic Coordination in the Human Metabolic Network Reveals Links between n-3 Fat Intake, Adipose Tissue Gene Expression and Metabolic Health
(Public Library Of Science (PLOS), 2011)Understanding the molecular link between diet and health is a key goal in nutritional systems biology. As an alternative to pathway analysis, we have developed a joint multivariate and network-based approach to analysis ... -
Two independent apolipoprotein A5 haplotypes modulate postprandial lipoprotein metabolism in a healthy caucasian population
(Endocrine Society, 2007)Background: Apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) plays an important role in plasma triacylglycerol (TG) homeostasis. Five polymorphisms (1131T>C, c.-3A>G, c.56C>G, IVS3+476G>A, and c.1259T>C) in the APOA5 gene define three common ... -
Uremic toxins induce THP-1 Monocyte endothelial adhesion and migration through specific miRNA expression
(MDPI, 2023)Atherosclerosis is initiated by the activation of endothelial cells that allows monocyte adhesion and transmigration through the vascular wall. The accumulation of uremic toxins such as indoxyl sulphate (IS) and p-cresol ... -
Vitamin d deficiency with high parathyroid hormone levels is related to late onset SEPSIS among preterm infants
(BMC, 2023)Summary Preterm infants (PTs) are at greater risk for vitamin D defciency, which relates to the possibility of a higher incidence of comorbidities. Our goal was twofold, 1) to monitor vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, ... -
Vitamin D Endocrine System and COVID-19. Treatment with Calcifediol
(MDPI, 2022)The COVID-19 pandemic is the greatest challenge facing modern medicine and public health systems. The viral evolution of SARS-CoV-2, with the emergence of new variants with in-creased infectious potential, is a cause for ... -
What is the prevalence of chronic kidney disease among hypertensive non-diabetic Egyptian patients attending primary healthcare?
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)Background: Although chronic kidney disease (CKD) is considered the major cause of morbidity and mortality in hypertension, the recognition and prevention of CKD remain deficient. CKD is one of the major health challenges ...
