Oral Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aim The objective of this study was to investigate the global profile of plasmatic proteins of individuals affected simultaneously or not by type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM, well/poorly‐controlled), Dyslipidemia (DL), and Periodontitis (P). Methods Besides periodontal examination, plasma was collected for glycemic, and lipid analyses from 150 ...

Reciprocal Expression of Myostatin and Vitamin D Receptors in Sarcopenia
Journal of the Indian Academy of Geriatrics, 2017 Background: Sarcopenia is the loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength or/and performance that occurs in concert with biological aging. Objectives: To evaluate both myostatin (MST) and vitamin D3 receptor (VDR) genes expression in Egyptian adults with ...

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphisms: effect on VDR levels and cell proliferation in EBV transformed B-lymphocytes. [PDF]
, 2008 The vitamin D receptor (VDR) is a transcription factor mediating genomic responses to the biologically active form of vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D3, a key modulator of the immune system.

Influence of Vitamin D Status and the VDR Gene Polymorphism on COVID-19 Susceptibility and Outcome [PDF]
Insufficient vitamin D levels in the bloodstream, together with the presence of specific genetic variations known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the VDR gene, have consistently been linked to a higher likelihood of contracting and ...

In vitro muscle contraction: A technical review on electrical pulse stimulation in C2C12 cells
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Electrical pulse stimulation (EPS) of skeletal muscle cells is increasingly used to model exercise In vitro. The murine C2C12 myotube system has become a common platform for such studies, yet wide variability in EPS protocols hampers reproducibility and cross‐study comparisons.

Analysis of VDR-RXR interactions in response to LCA.
, 2016 The top panel (A) illustrates the effect of exogenous human RXR on VDR transactivation in response to 100 μM LCA in transient transactivation assays. Human RXR constructs included wild-type RXR (RXRWT) and the RXR mutant lacking the c-terminal AF2 region

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend THC and extract administered to diet‐induced obese mice reduced body weight and fat storage. Extract, but not THC, improved glucose clearance by a mechanism that may include restoring adipoinsular function. Abstract Diet‐induced obesity (DIO) is associated with dysregulated adipoinsular axis and endocannabinoid system (eCBS ...
