[ 1 ] - Impact of Metformin and Pioglitazone on Serum Level of Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha and Lipid Profiles during Implantation Window in Diabetic Rats
Objective Objectives: The present study was designed to evaluate the serum lipid profile and Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-ɑ) level in diabetic rats at the time of implantation. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) could affect various systems, including innate immune system and causes chronic low-grade inflammation which increases the level of TNF-ɑ. Furthermore, T2DM is often accompanied by imp...
[ 2 ] - Evaluation of Osteopontin Gene Expression in Endometrium of Diabetic Rat Models Treated with Metformin and Pioglitazone
Objective Osteopontin (Opn) is one of the co-factors which participates in cell adhesion and invasion during implantation process. Increased incidence of spontaneous abortion is reported in diabetic women. Several reports have shown Opn gene expression changes in diabetic condition in several tissues. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate the effects of diabetes on Opn gene expression ...
[ 3 ] - Evaluation of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Polymorphism Frequencies in Endometriosis
Background The pro-inflammatory cytokine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), is a pathogenic element for a number of disorders. Previous studies have reported that the -1031 T/C and -238 G/A polymorphisms in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene are important factors in reproductive-related disorders. One of the most common gynecological diseases of women during the reproductive years is endo...
