Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

Blue light regenerates functional visual pigments in mammals through a retinyl-phospholipid intermediate. [PDF]

, 2017
The light absorbing chromophore in opsin visual pigments is the protonated Schiff base of 11-cis-retinaldehyde (11cRAL). Absorption of a photon isomerizes 11cRAL to all-trans-retinaldehyde (atRAL), briefly activating the pigment before it dissociates ...

Electrophoretic patterns of proteinuria in dogs with Cushing’s syndrome

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To describe the electrophoretic pattern of proteinuria in dogs with naturally occurring Cushing’s syndrome. We hypothesised that urine protein electrophoresis in dogs with spontaneous Cushing’s syndrome will reveal glomerular proteinuria. We also hypothesised that the severity of proteinuria would decrease during treatment with trilostane ...

Investigation of association between serum C‐reactive protein concentrations and proteinuria in dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives Identify if serum C‐reactive protein concentrations and specific diseases are associated with proteinuria (defined as urine protein:creatinine ratio >0.2) in dogs without known pathological pre‐renal, renal or post‐renal causes. Materials and Methods Hypothesis generating retrospective study.

Does urinary peptide content differ between COPD patients with and without inherited alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency? [PDF]

, 2017
Differentiating between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with normal (PiMM) or deficient (PiZZ) genetic variants of alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is important not only for understanding the pathobiology of disease progression but also ...

The Complex Relation of Branched‐Chain Amino Acids and Inflammation in the Obesity and Diabetes Context

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In a scenario with increasing cases of obesity and diabetes worldwide, branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) metabolism has become an important factor in the understanding of these pathologies. More recently, its chronic high plasma levels have been postulated, alongside glucose, inflammatory factors, and other molecules, as an important ...

Design, Synthesis, and Preclinical Efficacy of Novel Nonretinoid Antagonists of Retinol-Binding Protein 4 in the Mouse Model of Hepatic Steatosis.

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) serves as a transporter for all- trans-retinol (1) in the blood, and it has been proposed to act as an adipokine. Elevated plasma levels of the protein have been linked to diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and ...

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.
