clostridium perfringens is a part of the microflora of soil, and many reports have revealed the widespread occurrence of this organism in raw and processed foods. c. perfringens is classified into five types (types a to e), depending upon their ability to express alpha, beta, epsilon, and iota toxins in this study, a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (pcr) assay was developed for detection of...

Objective(s): Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of magnesium supplementation on insulin receptor activity in elderly type 2 diabetes using a rat model and to provide experimental evidence for insulin resistance improvement by magn...

Progression and severity of type 1 diabetes is dependent upon inflammatory induction of nitric oxide production and consequent pancreatic β-cell damage. Glucocorticoids (GCs) are highly effective anti-inflammatory agents but have been precluded in type 1 diabetes and in islet transplantation protocols because they exacerbated insulin resistance and suppressed β-cell insulin secretion at the hig...

Chronic inflammation plays a key role in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Cytokine and chemokine production within the islets in a diabetic milieu results in β-cell failure and diabetes progression. Identification of targets, which both prevent macrophage activation and infiltration into islets and restore β-cell functionality is essential for effective diabetes therapy. We report that certain ...

Recently, Leahy et al. issued a "consensus statement" in regard to targeting β-cell function in therapy for type 2 diabetes that recommends continued multidisciplinary efforts to realign treatment of type 2 diabetes to preserve β-cell function by early intervention. This might be applicable not only for obese type 2 diabetes in Europe and America, but also for lean type 2 diabetes in Asia. To e...

Insulin-dependent diabetes is a complex multifactorial disorder characterized by loss or dysfunction of β-cells resulting in failure of metabolic control. Even though type 1 and 2 diabetes differ in their pathogenesis, restoring β-cell function is the overarching goal for improved therapy of both diseases. This could be achieved either by cell-replacement therapy or by triggering intrinsic rege...

In this work, a new class of sequential random differential equations Airy type is introduced. An existence and uniqueness criteria for stochastic process solutions the introduced discussed. Some notions on β−differential dependance are also Then, results β−dependance At end, some illustrative examples

Diabetes results from an inadequate functional β cell mass, either due to autoimmune destruction (Type 1 diabetes) or insulin resistance combined with β cell failure (Type 2 diabetes). Strategies to enhance β cell regeneration or increase cell proliferation could improve outcomes for patients with diabetes. Research conducted over the past several years has revealed that factors regulating embr...

background: many efforts have been undertaken until now to find an alternative approach to packed red cell tranfusion in major β-thalassemia. augmentation of fetal hemoglobin by hydroxyurea has proved to be less effective in this condition as compared to sickle cell anemia, probably due to molecular heterogeneity of the former disease. hydroxyurea efficacy and its relation to xmn1 polymorphism ...

background: mutations in β -globin gene may result in β-thalassemia major, which is one of the most common genetic dis­or­ders in iran and some other countries. knowing the beta-globin mutation spectrum improves the efficiency of prenatal diagno­sis in the affected fetuses (major β-thalassemia) of heterozygote couples. methods: couples with high hemoglobin a 2 and low mean corpuscular volume we...
