Decreased serum testosterone level was not significantly correlated with lipid indices in elderly men

Background: Aging in men causes a gradual decline in endogenous testosterone levels, which may have detrimental effects on their health status. Testosterone deficiency is thought to promote atherosclerosis by modulating lipid metabolism. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the serum testosterone level and its correlation with lipid profile in men aged ≥60 years old. Methods: All el...

Aspergillus fumigatus harbouring the sole Y121F mutation shows decreased susceptibility to voriconazole but maintained susceptibility to itraconazole and posaconazole.

OBJECTIVES Voriconazole, itraconazole and posaconazole are members of the azole family and widely used for the treatment of aspergillosis. They act by inhibiting the activity of the fungal Cyp51A enzyme. The emergence of environmental azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus strains raises major concerns for human health. METHODS Recently, a new cyp51A-mediated resistance mechanism (namely TR46/...

Intramyocellular lipid levels are associated with peripheral, but not hepatic, insulin sensitivity in normal healthy subjects.

Increased levels of IMCL (intramyocellular lipid) have been shown to be associated with reduced steady-state glucose infusion rates during a hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp (M-value). The aim of the present study was to explore how IMCL levels relate to the insulin-mediated suppression of endogenous glucose production [hepatic SI (insulin sensitivity)] and increase in glucose disposal (peri...

In vitro drug combination studies of Letermovir (AIC246, MK-8228) with approved anti-human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and anti-HIV compounds in inhibition of HCMV and HIV replication.

Despite modern prevention and treatment strategies, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) remains a common opportunistic pathogen associated with serious morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised individuals, such as transplant recipients and AIDS patients. All drugs currently licensed for the treatment of HCMV infection target the viral DNA polymerase and are associated with severe toxicity issues a...

Fasting Ghrelin Levels Are Decreased in Obese Subjects and Are Significantly Related With Insulin Resistance and Body Mass Index

BACKGROUND Ghrelin is a 28-amino acid peptide that predominantly produced by the stomach. Strong evidence indicates the effects of ghrelin in the regulation of metabolic functions and its potential role in the aetiology of obesity. AIM The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of ghrelin levels with obesity, insulin resistance and glucose in normal and obese subjects. METHOD...
