A Multi-Spectroscopic and Molecular Docking Analysis of the Biophysical Interaction between Food Polyphenols, Urolithins, and Human Serum Albumin

Molecules
Secondary polyphenol metabolites, urolithins (UROs), have anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antidiabetic properties. Therefore, their biological activity relies on blood transport via human serum albumin (HSA) and tissue distribution.

A Novel Biomarker Panel to Identify Steroid Resistance in Childhood Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome

Biomarker Insights, 2017
Idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (NS) is the most common glomerular disorder of childhood. Response to initial treatment with corticosteroids is an indicator of prognosis, as resistant patients often present more progressive disease. In this cross-sectional

Microplastics and the Endocrine–Metabolic Interface: Novel Diagnostic Tools Targeting Thyroid–Adipose Axis

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastics (MPs) have been identified as major environmental contaminants that can affect organisms directly and act as carriers of particles and chemical additives, thereby aggravating endocrine networks that coordinate metabolic homeostasis.

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.

Evaluation of thyroglobulin autoantibodies in dogs at the time of diagnosis of hypoadrenocorticism and during treatment

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) may occur more frequently in dogs with hypoadrenocorticism (HA) than previously recognised. The objective of this study was to determine the presence of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (TgAAs) in dogs with HA.

Triiodothyronine Attenuates Prostate Cancer Progression Mediated by β-Adrenergic Stimulation

Molecular Medicine, 2016
Prostate cancer cells are responsive to adrenergic and thyroid stimuli. It is well established that β-adrenergic activation (protein kinase A [PKA]/cAMP response element binding protein [CREB]) promotes cancer progression, but the role of thyroid ...

Diagnostic antibodies at an inflection point: From discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering

VIEW, EarlyView.
This study systematically organizes the evolution of diagnostic antibodies from discovery platforms to design‐oriented engineering and analyzes the strengths and limitations of each approach. Meanwhile, it provides a critical, literature‐driven synthesis of current challenges, proposing integrated strategies for assay‐aware and function‐driven antibody

Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Therapeutic access points: The roles of circumventricular organs in drug delivery and metabolic regulation

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The current obesity drug landscape, dominated by GLP‐1 receptor agonists and emerging multi‐agonist therapies, has reinforced that long‐term weight loss is achieved in large part through central mechanisms that suppress appetite and reshape energy balance.

Thyroid function evaluation in pediatric nephrotic syndrome: a study in a developing country

Egyptian Pediatric Association Gazette
Background In steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS), protracted proteinuria leads to the loss of thyroxine-binding proteins resulting in low thyroid hormones and in damage renal tubules and exhausts the thyroid reserve.
