Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is prevalent among reproductive-aged women and is categorized by hormonal imbalances, irregular menstrual cycles, and challenges with fertility. PCOS affects approximately 3.6% of women globally, with prevalence varying by region.

Meta-analysis of interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms and tuberculosis susceptibility: Insights from recent studies.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a universal health problem with significant morbidity and mortality. Understanding the genetic factors affecting TB susceptibility is crucial for effective prevention and treatment. Interleukin-10 (IL-10), a regulatory cytokine, may influence TB pathogenesis through genetic variations.

Shifts from glucose to certain secondary carbon-sources result in activation of the extracytoplasmic function sigma factor sigmaE in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium.

Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) elicits the starvation-stress response (SSR) due to starvation for an essential nutrient, e.g.
