An increasingly competitive market, as well as transforming consumer expectations, have considerably altered the socio-economic landscape in which contemporary profit-making organizations operate. As a result, it is more difficult than ever to establish a successful and distinct brand, whilst adhering to fast-changing customer demands – especially when consumers bank on brands to fulfil a higher p

The large-scale mass mobilizations and colossal demonstrations of the last decade have shown that digital and social media platforms, globally, now play significant roles in early formation and further facilitation of activist movements, interested in progressive causes and societal changes. However, the repercussions of the very same events have also clearly shown the shortcomings of mediatized a

A recent workshop brought together global leaders in diabetes to assess existing approaches to disease heterogeneity and to identify research gaps, with a goal of achieving precision diabetology for all patients globally.

Syncope is a symptom in which transient loss of consciousness occurs as a consequence of a self-limited, spontaneously terminating period of cerebral hypoperfusion. Many circulatory disturbances (e.g. brady- or tachyarrhythmias, reflex cardioinhibition-vasodepression-hypotension) may trigger a syncope or near-syncope episode, and identifying the cause(s) is often challenging. Some syncope may invo

Obesity is a complex and chronic disease affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide and has reached epidemic proportions. It is important to understand the underlying mechanisms to tackle this devastating disease, thus preventing its comorbidities. The epigenome, including DNA methylation and histone modifications, appears to be the link between genetics and nongenetic factors, modulating

PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are important for ensuring the integrity of the germline. 3'-terminal 2'-O-methylation is essential for piRNA maturation and to protect them from degradation. HENMT1 (HEN Methyltransferase 1) carries out the 2'-O-methylation, which is of key importance for piRNA stability and functionality. However, neither the structure nor the catalytic mechanism of mammalian HENMT

BACKGROUND: The head-up tilt test (HUT) and other evidence suggest that the vagal effect on the heart decreases with age.OBJECTIVES: The main aim of the study was to assess whether this age effect also affects the rate of asystole in spontaneous reflex syncope (RS).METHOD: We performed an analysis of pooled individual data from 4 studies that recruited patients ≥40 years of age affected by certain

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome's (PCOS) main feature is hyperandrogenism, which is linked to a higher risk of metabolic disorders. Gene expression analyses in adipose tissue and skeletal muscle reveal dysregulated metabolic pathways in women with PCOS, but these differences do not necessarily lead to changes in protein levels and biological function. Methods: To advance our understanding of

Diabetes is a highly ageing-related disease manifesting with a deteriorated capacity of insulin secretion and uncontrolled blood glucose-raising, hyperglycemia. In this thesis, we aim to explore the underlying roles of CaV channels and aging-associated genetic changes in the development of Type 2 diabetes (T2D).In pancreatic β-cells, the active of voltage-gated calcium (CaV) channels play an essen

SREBP transcription factors are key regulators of lipid metabolism and play a central role in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). In a recent issue of Molecular Cell, Nie et al. 1 have discovered that Drosha, known for microRNA processing, regulates the maturation and activation of SREBP1 in the liver, and this seems to be important in MASLD.
