Array-Based Epigenetic Aging Indices May Be Racially Biased

Gamma-ray Bursts May Be Biased Tracers of Star Formation

Based on a simulation of galaxy formation in the standard cosmological model, we suggest that a consistent picture for Gamma-Ray Bursts and star formation may be found that is in broad agreement with observations: GRBs preferentially form in low metallicity environments and in galaxies substantially less luminous that L∗. We find that the computed formation rate of stars with metallicity less t...

Platelet Indices may be Correlated with Severity of Vasospastic Disorders

BACKGROUND Vasospastic disorders are common worldwide. In daily practice, routine blood samples are used for several investigations. In this study we aimed to determine the possible correlations between lymphocyte count, platelet indices, and the severity of vasospastic disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data of 102 patients admitted to our department with vasospastic disorder symptomatology were ...

AdipoRon may be benefit for atherosclerosis prevention

Atherosclerosis has serious role in coronary arteries disease,so it is important to establish effective strategies for prevention or even treatment of atherosclerosis. Adiponectin, as one of the most abundant adipokines, has insulin sensitivity, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties. Disturbed adiponectin actions through its receptor, (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) may be involved in atheros...
