Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEffect of Metformin Treatment on Inflammatory Factors and Gut Microbial Diversity in Patients with Type II Diabetes MellitusLei Tong, Jingjing Zhang, Li Xiao Yue et al.With the persistent rise in the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), traditional treatment evaluations have primarily focused on glycemic control, often overlooking the multidimensional effects of medications. As a first-line therapeutic agent, the anti-inflammatory effects and gut microbiota regulation mechanisms of metformin remain incompletely elucidated. This prospective cohort study established a metformin treatment group and a T2DM control … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 20 Jul 2026 · 774 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsIntracranial Atherosclerotic Disease: Treatment Potential and Diagnostic OpportunitiesAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victoria Alexandrovna Khotina, Anton Yuvenalievich Postnov et al.Atherosclerosis, characterized by the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques within large arteries, substantially increases the risk of cardiovascular events, including ischemic stroke. Intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD) represents a particularly significant clinical threat given its strong association with ischemic stroke across multiple intracranial arterial territories. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of intracranial atherosclerosis. Special attention … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 5 May 2026 · 1,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractsuPAR as an Inflammatory and Preclinical Atherosclerotic Marker in Hypovitaminosis DShravan Ajith Panchwadkar, Sudha Kuthethur, Neelam Manjunath Pawar et al.The mechanistic link between inflammation and atherosclerosis highlights the critical role of immune modulation in cardiovascular disease. The soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR), an immune-derived factor, has recently emerged as a non-specific inflammatory marker across chronic diseases and infections. All cells within the atherosclerotic arterial wall can express uPAR and release urokinase, which plays a key role in the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2026 · 1,122 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling NETosis: From Immune Mechanisms to Therapeutic InnovationsAnastasia V. Poznyak, Alexey V. Churov, Gulalek Amanmyradovna Babayeva et al.Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are integral to immune responses, serving both protective and pathological roles in inflammatory diseases. Despite increasing recognition of NETs, significant gaps remain in understanding the nuanced mechanisms of NETosis and its implications for health and disease. This review systematically explores NETosis—the formation of NETs—by elucidating the molecular signaling pathways and cellular mechanisms involved. We highlight the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 21 Feb 2026 · 1,678 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of Atherosclerosis and Osteoarthritis, the Role of Inflammation in the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis and AtherosclerosisAnastasia V. Poznyak, Nikolay A. Orekhov, Aleksandra Sergeevna Utkina et al.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) rank among the leading causes of death globally, accounting for a substantial proportion of mortality rates and affecting millions of individuals. Risk factors such as ageing, obesity, diabetes and a sedentary lifestyle contribute significantly to the prevalence of CVD. Osteoarthritis (OA), on the other hand, is one of the most common joint disorders, affecting a large segment … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,769 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Role of Vitamin B12 as an Anti-atherogenic and Anti-inflammatory Agent in Apparently Healthy Adults With Hypovitaminosis DShravan Ajith Panchwadkar, Sudha Kuthethur, Sowndarya Kollampare, Neelam Manjunath PawarVitamin B12 deficiency is associated with metabolic changes like methyl malonic acidemia and hyperhomocystinemia eventually leading to atherosclerosis. Dyslipidemia and vitamin D (vit D) deficiency are independent risk factors of CVD. This study aims to explore the interrelationship between inflammatory markers, adverse lipid profile and vitamin B12 in hypovitaminosis D. Since, atherosclerosis is an inflammatory condition we have investigated CRP … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2025 · 3,326 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrom Health to Disease: Functional Insights of Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I in Lipid Metabolism and Disease PathogenesisSujina Simon Sailet, Poornima Ajay Manjrekar, Santosh Rai et al.Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-B1) has caught considerable interest among the scientific community due to its pivotal role in several biological and pathological processes. It is a multifunctional integral membrane protein and multiligand receptor encoded by the SCARB1 gene. SR-B1 has a wide distribution, primarily in the liver as well as steroidogenic organs including the gonads and adrenal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2025 · 3,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInflammatory Effects of Co-Exposure to Heavy Metals (Cd and Pb) and Respiratory Viruses (229E, OC43, and H3N2) on IL-6 and IL-8 Responses in U87 Glioblastoma CellsHyeokjun Yun, Qian-Wen Wang, Jae Kyung KimCo-exposure to heavy metals and viruses can pose threats to cellular health by increasing cytotoxicity and inflammatory cytokine expression. We aimed to elucidate the interactions between these factors inhuman glioblastoma cells (U87). U87 cells were exposed to influenza A virus (H3N2), coronaviruses OC43 and 229E, and heavy metals Cd and Pb. Cell viability and cytotoxicity were assessed through WST-8 and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 5 Jul 2025 · 5,505 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Correlation Between α-Klotho and Diabetic Biomarkers in Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional StudyYaser A.M Sulaiman, Moayad M. Al Anzy, Omeed Akbar Ali, Adnan M. IsmailEvidence suggests a link between diabetes and Klotho protein, demonstrated by reduced Klotho gene expression in individuals with diabetes, α- klotho the potential modulator of kidney health in DM. Klotho is primarily expressed in the kidneys and has an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant role, which may protect against the pathological processes that damage renal function in diabetes.

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmune Metabolism in Functional Aspects of the BrainElisa Gonzalez Cuevas, Nitya G. ChakrabortyThe brain interacts with the immune system in a highly regulated and restricted manner. Immune signals initiate pro- and anti-inflammatory activity in most body tissues in response to disease states and injury. An accumulation of inflammatory insults can disrupt immune metabolic homeostasis and give rise to pathology in sensitive areas. Here, we provide an overview of interactions between immune metabolism … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2019 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
