[ 1 ] - Comparison of Serum Level and IL-18 Gene Expression and Reactive Protein in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes with Metabolic Syndrome and Healthy People
Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is a common clinical anomaly, with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors. Increased inflammatory mediators, such as reactive protein,as well as the inflammatory cytokines can be associated with the incidence and progression of metaboli syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Materials & Methods: This study was performed on 35 m...
[ 2 ] - Effect of Silymarin on Blood Glucose concentration and Pax4 Gene Expression and Histopathology of Pancreatic Tissue in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Wistar Rats
Aim and Background: Considering the high rates of diabetes in Iran and the world and also due to the lower side effects of medicinal plants compared to industrial and chemical arbitrators, this study examined the effect of the active ingredient of tall moss (silymarin) on the expression of pax4 gene, one of the key genes for development and reconstruction of pancreatic beta cells. Material ...
[ 3 ] - Relationship between serum levels of chromium and iron with transferrin and albumin levels as carrier proteins in diabetic patients with atherosclerosis
Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the most common metabolic diseases in the world, resulting in complete or partial deficiency or resistance to insulin action. In this study, the association between serum levels of chromium and iron with serum levels of their carriers, transferrin and albumin in diabetic patients with atherosclerosis was investigated. Materials and methods: In ...
[ 4 ] - Evaluation of Grapefruit Juice in terms of Interleukin 18 Gene Expression in Rats with Fatty Liver and Healthy Rats
Introduction: Interleukin 18 (IL-18) is a member of the cytokine family and an important regulator of inflammatory reactions. Due to the severe and irreversible complications of this disease in the advanced stages, timely treatment, especially with herbal medicines, can be considered an important strategy. This study aimed to investigate the effect of grapefruit extract on the IL-18 gene expres...
[ 5 ] - Effect of Kelussia odoratissima Mozaff extract on PNPLA3 gene expression in non-alcoholic fatty liver and control rats
Background and Aims: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with such symptoms as steatosis, fibrosis, and liver cirrhosis. Kelussia has attracted assiduous attention due to its protective effects on the liver. The PNPLA3 gene is mainly expressed in the liver and plays a major role in the degradation rate of hepatic triglycerides. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess th...
