Purpose: Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a bacterial infection of ascitic fluid that develops naturally, without being triggered by any surgical conditions or procedures, and is a common complication of cirrhosis. With a potential mortality rate of 40 %, accurate diagnosis and prompt initiation of appropriate antibiotic therapy are crucial for optimizing patient outcomes and preventing life-threatening complications. This study aimed to expand the use of computational models to improve the diagnostic accuracy of SBP in cirrhotic patients by incorporating a broader range of data, including clinical variables and laboratory values.

SENP1 inhibits apoptosis, and increases angiogenesis, estrogen and androgen receptor transcription and c-Jun transcription factor, proliferation, growth, cell migration, and invasion of cancer. The and studies also demonstrated which natural compounds, especially phytochemicals, minerals, and vitamins, prevent cancer.

PPAR functions as the master regulator of glucose homeostasis and lipoprotein metabolism, and recent studies have reported that it is involved in various metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease (CAD), and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Increased deSUMOylation in murine hearts by upregulation resulted in cardiac dysfunction and congenital heart defects. Natural compounds via regulating cell proliferation and survival, induce cell cycle cessation, cell death, apoptosis, and producing reactive oxygen species and various enzyme systems cause disease prevention.

SENPs are essential for maintaining a balance between SUMOylation and deSUMOylation which can be disturbed by changing the expression of (sentrin-specific proteases) SENPs. SENP1 is the most studied isoform of SENPs.

The essential roles of PPARGC1A encouraged the researchers to assess the relation between metabolism-related diseases and its variants. To study Gly482Ser (+1564G/A) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) after PPARGC1A modeling, we substitute Gly482 for Ser482.

SENP1 has a determinative role in the activation of transcription programs in the innate immune responses and the development B of and C lymphocytes. We found, SENP1 possibly plays a critical role in immune infiltration and acts as an expression marker in PAAD, ESCA, and THYM.

Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are a set of enzymes to eliminate ROS and cell protection. Based on the diminished activities of SOD1 during DR and cataract, the polymorphisms within SOD1 gene may be associated with these disorders.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe SENP1 (Sentrin-Specific Protease1) is essential for desumoylation. SENP1 plays an essential role in many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer via targeting GATA2, NEMO, Pin1, SMAD4 and HIF-1α for deSUMOylation. Considering that, over expression of SENP1 was reported in cancer, thus an optional inhibitor of SENP1 can restitute the balance to the skewed system of SUMO and act as an effective therapeutic agent.
