[ 1 ] - میزان هموسیستئین و HsCRP در بیماران مبتلا به لوپوس اریتماتوز سیستمیک و ارتباط آن با عوامل خطر قلبی – عروقی و فعالیت بیماری

زمینه و هدف : لوپوس اریتماتوز سیستمیک یک بیماری التهابی چند سیستمی با علت ناشناخته می‌باشد. در بیماران مبتلا به لوپوس بیماری قلبی و عروقی علت اصلی افزایش مرگ و میر و ناتوانی محسوب می‌شود. HsCRP یک عامل التهابی تحت بالینی بوده و نقش یک عامل پیش‌آگهی کننده غیروابسته برای آترواسکلروزیس را در این بیماران ایفا می‌کند و افزایش هموسیستئین نیز می‌تواند باعث بیماری عروق کاروتید و انفارکتوس قلب و ترومبوز...

[ 2 ] - Inflammatory Cytokines and type 2 diabetes

Inflammatory cytokines increase in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome. This review focuses on inflammatory cytokines such as C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and adiponectin, a cytokine produced by adipose tissue and associated with insulin sensitivity. Despite the major role of cytokines in the development of T2D, in the case of adiponectin still...

[ 3 ] - Hamartomatous Polyposis Syndromes: Management and Surveillance Strategies

Introduction: Hamartomatous Polyposis Syndromes (HPS) are a rare group of dominant autosomal inheritance, which is characterized by the development of hamartomatous polyps in the gastrointestinal tract.  This syndrome included Juvenile Polyposis syndrome (JPS), Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS), and PTEN Hamartoma Tumour Syndrome (PHTS). PTEN Hamartoma Tumour Syndrome (PHTS) itself includes Cowden ...

[ 4 ] - Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer (HNPCC)/Lynch Syndrome: Surveillance and Diagnostic strategies

Introduction: Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC, Lynch syndrome) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease. The disease is caused by a mutation in one of four genes of the DNA mismatch repair system and increases the risk for various cancers, especially the uterine and colon cancers. The prevalence of this disease in the general population is about 1 in 500 and it causes about 2-3...

[ 5 ] - Differentiation-Inducing Activity of the Phyto-polyphenols Epigallocatechin-3-gallate and Kaempferol on NB4 Cells

Background and Objective: The rate of survival in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) can dramatically improve, if the patients receive all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) treatment. However, this drugchr('39')s toxicity is a major problem in APL treatment. Previous researches have demonstrated that phyto-polyphenols such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and kaempferol cause apoptosis in hematopoie...
