Fructose-mediated AGE-RAGE axis: approaches for mild modulation

Frontiers in Nutrition
Fructose is a valuable and healthy nutrient when consumed at normal levels (≤50 g/day). However, long-term consumption of excessive fructose and elevated endogenous production can have detrimental health impacts. Fructose-initiated nonenzymatic glycation

Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis

, 2016
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a novel protein increasingly studied in the pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes (T1D). RAGE is expressed by several immune cell types, including T cells, antigen-presenting cells, endothelial cells ...

Biomarkers of Pre‐COPD Lung Function Trajectories in Middle Age: A Prospective Study From 1st to 6th Decade

Respirology, EarlyView.
Identifying impaired lifetime lung function trajectories is key to identifying the preclinical phase of COPD (Pre‐COPD) or prognosis of COPD. We have identified that some circulating established COPD biomarkers differ across ‘pre‐COPD’ lung function trajectories, suggesting that some COPD‐specific pathobiological processes, including inflammation, are ...

Periodontitis and metabolic diseases (diabetes and obesity): Tackling multimorbidity

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are multifactorial, long‐term, chronic conditions that represent a burden to health‐care systems worldwide as they can only be controlled rather than cured; hence, they require long‐term care. With the exponential increase in NCDs, the occurrence of individuals presenting with more than one chronic disease is ...

Metformin reverts aortic calcifications and elastin loss induced by an experimental metabolic syndrome

Endocrine Connections
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with osteogenic transdifferentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and accumulation of arterial calcifications (ACs). Metformin (MET) inhibits this transdifferentiation in vitro.

Sensory profile of cats with potential pain‐related diabetic neuropathy

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) can cause peripheral neuropathy. This study aimed to evaluate sensory function by measuring the mechanical nociceptive thresholds (MNT) and diffuse noxious inhibitory control (DNIC) of cats with diabetes mellitus (DMcats).

Biomarkers to predict outcomes in diabetic foot ulcers

VIEW, EarlyView.
Studies attempting to predict the healing outcome of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have investigated various biological materials and recovered molecules that may aid in discriminating wounds that will heal and those that will not heal. This graphical abstract captures the commonly studied classes of biomarkers in the context of DFUs.

Effects of dried okra extract on lipid profile, renal function and some RAGE-related inflammatory genes expression in patients with diabetic nephropathy: A randomized controlled trial

Complementary Therapies in Medicine
Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common complication of type 2 diabetes. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L) is reported to have anti-diabetic effects.

Gut microbiota dysbiosis in the inflammatory pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy

VIEW, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates how gut dysbiosis drives diabetic retinopathy through the gut‐retina axis, a process unfolding in three interconnected stages. First, in the gut, a decrease in beneficial bacteria and an increase in pro‐inflammatory taxa compromise the intestinal barrier, causing a “leaky gut” that allows LPS to translocate into the ...
