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.

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.

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.
