Promising studies suggest a possible role of probiotics in treating and/or preventing CD. Nevertheless, human trials on the subject are still scarce and lack homogeneity. A possible role was documented for probiotics in improving CD-related symptoms, modulating the peripheral immune response and altering the fecal microbiota, although the results…[Read more]

OBJECTIVE To assess the value of preimplantation genetic test (PGT) based on next generation sequencing (NGS) for achieving pregnancy for 71 couples with one partner carrying a reciprocal or Robertsonian translocation. METHODS Following blastocyst biopsy, whole genome of single cell was amplified, and PGT was performed by NGS. The subjects…[Read more]

Aspergillus spp. are widely occurring fungi in nature; they produce toxic compounds such as aflatoxins (AFs) and mainly target plant products such as corn and nuts. The development of prevention strategies is challenging because AFs are highly toxic and have been regulated to small concentrations. This study proposes a new strategy of AF…[Read more]

Therefore, these findings suggest that knockout of E2F1 could affect ADSCs to inhibit the survival of fat grafts by downregulating PPAR-γ expression.Background Urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs in 21% of kidney recipients within the first 3 months after transplantation (KTx). It is associated with impaired graft function. Ureteral stent…[Read more]
