Trace elements and the thyroid

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Trace elements, such as iodine and selenium (Se), are vital to human health and play an essential role in metabolism. They are also important to thyroid metabolism and function, and correlate with thyroid autoimmunity and tumors. Other minerals such as iron (Ir), lithium (Li), copper (Co), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), magnesium (Mg), cadmium (Cd), and ...

Titanium dioxide particles frequently present in face masks intended for general use require regulatory control

Scientific Reports, 2022
Although titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a suspected human carcinogen when inhaled, fiber-grade TiO2 (nano)particles were demonstrated in synthetic textile fibers of face masks intended for the general public.

The interaction of early life factors and depression-associated loci affecting the age at onset of the depression

Translational Psychiatry, 2022
Multiple previous studies explored the associations between early life factors and the age at onset of the depression. However, they only focused on the influence of environmental or genetic factors, without considering the interactions between them ...

Association between birth by caesarian section and anxiety, self-harm: a gene-environment interaction study using UK Biobank data

BMC Psychiatry, 2023
Background Limited efforts have been paid to explore the underlying genetic mechanisms of birth by caesarian section (CS) affecting the risks of adult anxiety and self-harm. Methods Using UK Biobank cohort, the logistic regression model was first applied

Associations between genetic loci, environment factors and mental disorders: a genome-wide survival analysis using the UK Biobank data

Translational Psychiatry, 2022
It is well-accepted that both environment and genetic factors contribute to the development of mental disorders (MD). However, few genetic studies used time-to-event data analysis to identify the susceptibility genetic variants associated with MD and ...

Assessing the effect of interaction between C-reactive protein and gut microbiome on the risks of anxiety and depression

Molecular Brain, 2021
Cumulative evidence shows that gut microbiome can influence brain function and behavior via the inflammatory processes. However, the role of interaction between gut dysbiosis and C-reactive protein (CRP) in the development of anxiety and depression ...
