THE EFFECT OF SOURSOP LEAF EXTRACT ON PANCREATIC BETA CELL COUNT AND FASTING BLOOD GLUCOSE IN MALE WISTAR RATS EXPOSED TO A HIGH-FAT DIET AND STREPTOZOTOCIN

Folia Medica Indonesiana, 2017
Based on some researches known that soursop leaf extract can improve beta cell injury. The aims of this study was to analyze the effect of soursop leaf extract on fasting blood glucose (FBG) and pancreatic beta cell number in male Wistar rats wich were ...

Tangent points of lower content d‐regular sets and β numbers [PDF]

Journal of the London Mathematical Society, 2019
Given a lower content $d$-regular set in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that the subset of points in $E$ where a certain Dini-type condition on the so-called Jones $β$ numbers holds coincides with the set of tangent points of $E$, up to a set of $\mathcal{H}^d$-measure zero.

Descent c-Wilf Equivalence [PDF]

Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group. For any $\sigma \in S_n$, we let $\mathrm{des}(\sigma)$ denote the number of descents of $\sigma$, $\mathrm{inv}(\sigma)$ denote the number of inversions of $\sigma$, and $\mathrm{LRmin}(\sigma)$ denote the number of

Pax4 Expression does not Transduce Pancreatic Alpha Cells to Beta Cells

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2015
Background/Aims: The lack of available beta cells greatly limits the use of beta cell transplantation as a therapy for diabetes. Thus, generation of beta cells from other sources is substantially required.

Accessible surfaces of beta proteins increase with increasing protein molecular mass more rapidly than those of other proteins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Here we present a systematic analysis of accessible surface areas and hydrogen bonds of 2554 globular proteins from four structural classes (all-α, all-β, α/β and α+β proteins) that is aimed to learn in which structural class the accessible surface area ...

Personalized Zebrafish Models for Fusion‐Positive Pediatric Sarcomas

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical sequencing efforts have revolutionized our approaches to categorizing pediatric cancers in real time. This has dramatically improved our ability to profile pediatric tumors, identify actionable vulnerabilities, and influence clinical care.

The Role of “Adult‐Onset” Cancer Predisposition Genes in Pediatric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current literature estimates that 10% of pediatric cancers are caused by pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants in cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). Variants in CPGs thought to increase cancer risk exclusively during adulthood are referred to as “adult‐onset” CPGs (aoCPGs).

Health Literacy, Self‐Efficacy and Knowledge of Sickle Cell Disease Among Caregivers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary blood disorder in which abnormal haemoglobin leads to severe anaemia, painful crises and organ failure. Caregivers’ health literacy (HL) – their ability to assess, understand and apply information, and interact with healthcare professionals – is crucial for managing children with SCD, yet ...
