Already established for the assessment of people with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS), cardiac troponin also predicted coronary events in people with symptoms suggestive of stable angina, the MICA group showed. Sampled just before diagnostic outpatient angiography, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) results tracked with the presence of angiographically proven coronary artery disease (CAD) and […]

Multi-omic analyses of triptan-treated migraine attacks gives insight into molecular mechanisms

Jul
Abstract Migraine is a common, polygenic disorder that is characterized by moderate to severe headache attacks. Migraine attacks are commonly treated with triptans, i.e. serotonin receptor agonists. However, triptans are effective in ~ 60% of the population, and the mechanisms of triptans are debated. Here, we aim to expose the mechanisms of triptan using metabolomics and transcriptomics […]

Jul
Abstract Immune defense is comprised of (1) resistance: the ability to reduce pathogen load, and (2) tolerance: the ability to limit the disease severity induced by a given pathogen load. The study of tolerance in the field of animal immunity is fairly nascent in comparison to resistance. Consequently, studies which examine immune defense comprehensively (i.e. […]

Abstract Electronic cigarette (EC) has been suggested to be less harmful than cigarette smoking, but the research on the full extent of their harm reduction potential is still lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of EC aerosol and cigarette smoke (CS) on cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, and renal functions in mice after prolonged exposure. Forty-eight […]
