Parietal Cell Antibodies in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Its Implications for Iron Deficiency: A Tertiary Centre Experience from North India.

Introduction: Parietal cell antibody (PCA)-mediated auto-immune gastritis is known to increase the risk of iron-deficiency and pernicious anaemia in adults with type 1 diabetes mellitus. However, in children and young adults with type 1 diabetes, these data are scarce. We aimed to study the prevalence of parietal cell antibodies (PCAs) and its clinical associations in people with type 1 diabetes with onset below 30 years.

Transcriptome of the murine duodenum during recovery after a lethal dose of total body irradiation.

In the aftermath of 9/11, the radiobiology community sought novel radiation mitigators capable of preventing death when administered 24 hours or later after exposure to lethal ionizing radiation. The survival and expansion of normal stem cells are crucial for restoring tissue integrity in time to prevent mortality. While FDA-approved drugs for acute radiation syndrome primarily target the hematopoietic system, restoring the integrity of the intestinal lining is equally important for survival.

Design and synthesis of betulinic acid-dithiocarbamate conjugates as potential antifungal agents against .

Diverse betulinic acid-dithiocarbamate conjugates were designed and synthesized a two-step reaction at room temperature. Among the fourteen dithiocarbamate analogs of betulinic acid, DTC2 demonstrated the best antifungal activity against , with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 4 μg mL, achieving 99% fungicidal activity at the same concentration. These compounds were found to be ineffective against common Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens, suggesting their specificity to fungi.
