Background: The receptors for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) are increased in atherosclerotic plaques. Soluble (s)RAGE decreases, whereas the extracellular newly identified receptor for advanced glycation end products (EN-RAGE) increases inflammatory responses mediated by RAGE. The aims were to explore whether sRAGE, EN-RAGE and the EN-RAGE/sRAGE ratio, were associated with the use of lipi

Atherosclerosis is a systemic disease affecting the large arteries caused by the accumulation of lipids in the vessel wall. Cardiovascular disease due to atherosclerosis is today the most common cause of death globally through its end consequences: myocardial infarctions and stroke. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a network of structural fibrous proteins, proteoglycans and glycoproteins. ECM pro

BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex polygenic disease with unclear mechanism. In an attempt to identify novel genes involved in β-cell function, we harness a bioinformatics method called Loss-of-function tool (LoFtool) gene score. METHODS: RNA-sequencing data from human islets were used to cross-reference genes within the 1st quartile of most intolerant LoFtool score with the 100th most

Two Lactobacillus strains have proven anti-inflammatory properties by reducing pro-inflammatory responses to antigens. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial tested the hypothesis that L. plantarum HEAL9 and L. paracasei 8700:2 suppress ongoing celiac disease autoimmunity in genetically at risk children on a gluten-containing diet in a longitudinally screening study for celiac disea

Background: Insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion are hallmarks of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and may influence risks of complications including dementia. We investigated dementia risk across T2D subgroups defined by beta-cell function and insulin sensitivity. Methods: We used Homeostasis Model Assessment-2 indices of beta-cell function (HOMA2-B) and insulin sensitivity (HOMA2-S) to classif

Niacinamide (NIA) is a widely used skincare ingredient with established benefits for skin barrier support, inflammation reduction, and dermal health. However, the mechanisms governing its transdermal delivery remain insufficiently understood, particularly regarding how formulation pH influences its permeation through the stratum corneum (SC). This study investigates how donor phase pH (5.0 vs. 7.4

Popular Abstract in Swedish Befolkningsutvecklingen i Sverige medför att allt fler människor blir äldre. Detta är ett positivt resultat till följd av att befolkningen är vid bättre hälsa. Dock innebär det att fler människor kommer att uppnå en ålder där multisjuklighet (att ha flera kroniska sjukdomar samtidigt), oförmåga att klara sig själv och kognitiv svikt är vanligt förekommande. Detta kommerBackground: People aged over 80 years is the most rapidly growing segment of the population in Sweden. This group is susceptible to multimorbidity, disability and cognitive impairment. Managing these issues will be essential in order to obtain a sustainable healthcare system in the near future. Aim: To determine if increased acknowledgement of cognitive impairment could improve healthcare for el

Genom att frysa ner egna friska blodstamceller i 20-årsåldern, tina upp dem och göra en stamcellstransplantation i 40–50-årsåldern skulle det vara möjligt att föryngra sitt blodbildande system och sitt immunförsvar. Science fiction? Det fungerar i alla fall när gamla möss får nya friska blodstamceller från unga möss.   Möss blir bara ett par år gamla som mest. Det gör det smidigt att använda möss

This article explored the use of social media and mobile communication by women in Saudi Arabia who campaigned for the right to drive from 1990. Due to the globally unique ban on women driving in the Kingdom, females always needed a male driver to transport them. The Saudi government announced in September 2017 that women would be allowed to drive from June 2018. Using the theory of connective act

Lignin is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature and a promising renewable resource for aromatic chemicals. For the understanding of different lignin isolation and conversion processes, the identification of phenolic compounds is of importance. However, due to the vast number of possible chemical transformations, the prediction of produced phenolic structures is challenging, and a non-targe

Vitamin D and its analogues are fat-soluble vitamins that carry out important functions in human and animal organisms. Many studies have pointed out the relationship between the deficiency of these substances and the development of both skeletal-and extra-skeletal diseases. Although vitamin D is fundamentally derived from the bio-transformation of its precursor, 7-dehydrocholesterol, through the a

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: To date, the molecular function of most of the reported type 2 diabetes-associated loci remains unknown. The introduction or removal of cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) dinucleotides, which are possible sites of DNA methylation, has been suggested as a potential mechanism through which single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can affect gene function via epigenetics. The aim of this

The main objective of this study was to investigate the risk of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) in children exposed to tobacco smoking in utero, also taking genetic predisposition as expressed by HLA haplotype into account. In Skåne, the southernmost county of Sweden, all children born 1999-2005 who developed T1D were registered, resulting in 344 cases. For each child with T1D, three control childr

Amplification of innate immune responses by endogenous danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) promotes inflammation. The involvement of S100A8 and S100A9, DAMPs belonging to the S100 calgranulin family, in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease is attracting an increasing amount of interest. S100A8 and S100A9 (also termed MRP8 and MRP14) preferentially form the S100A8/A9 heterodimer (MRP
