Article Synopsis
  • Researchers have been studying synthetic high-density lipoprotein (sHDL) nanodiscs as a treatment for cardiovascular disease, focusing on their role in reverse cholesterol transport.
  • New polymer-based nanodiscs, specifically made from styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer (SMA), mimic the structure of sHDLs but haven't been thoroughly compared in terms of function.
  • The study found that while SMA-based nanodiscs are similar in size and cholesterol efflux in lab tests, they are less effective in real-life applications, potentially due to issues with cholesterol processing by certain enzymes.

Aim: Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), due to their immunosuppressed status, are potentially more susceptible to both the severe effects of COVID-19 and complications in their transplanted organ. The aim of this study is to investigate whether COVID-19 infection increases the risk of rejection in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).

Methods: This study involved a detailed literature review, conducted using PubMed, with the search being completed by September 7th, 2023.

The present study was aimed at the identification of population stratifying markers from the commercial porcine SNP 60K array and elucidate the genome-wide selective sweeps in the crossbred Landlly pig population. Original genotyping data, generated on Landlly pigs, was merged in various combinations with global suid breeds that were grouped as exotic (global pig breeds excluding Indian and Chinese), Chinese (Chinese pig breeds only), and outgroup pig populations. Post quality control, the genome-wide SNPs were ranked for their stratifying power within each dataset in TRES (using three different criteria) and FIFS programs and top-ranked SNPs (0.

Context: Associations between adverse maternal complications and fetal outcomes are known entity in thyroid disorders during pregnancy. Thus, prompt identification of thyroid disorders and timely initiation of treatment is essential. Universal screening and early treatment of pregnant women for thyroid disorder should be considered especially in a resource-limited country like India with a high prevalence of undiagnosed thyroid disorders and adverse feto-maternal outcomes.
