Gut Microbiota and Genetic Polymorphisms Appear to Drive Disease Expression of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Lean Individuals.

Background/objectives: There are very few comparative studies worldwide between 'lean' and 'nonlean/obese nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)' patients analyzing the differences in gut microbiome, genotype, and serum bile acids. Our aim was to compare the genotype, gut microbiome, bile acid profile, and metabolic patterns of lean NAFLD and obese NAFLD patients with special reference to hepatic fibrosis.

Methods: Both lean and obese NAFLD patients diagnosed by ultrasonography along with matched controls were included.

VagiBIOM Lactobacillus suppository improves vaginal health index in perimenopausal women with bacterial vaginosis: a randomized control trial.

Bacterial vaginosis (BV) can cause vaginal dysbiosis that may influence general vaginal health and pregnancy complications. Balancing vaginal microbiome using Lactobacillus spp. may be a new way to prevent and treat mild BV.

Predictive association of gut microbiome and NLR in anemic low middle-income population of Odisha- a cross-sectional study.

Background: Iron is abundant on earth but not readily available for colonizing bacteria due to its low solubility in the human body. Hosts and microbiota compete fiercely for iron. <15% Supplemented Iron is absorbed in the small bowel, and the remaining iron is a source of dysbiosis.

Genome-wide analysis of AAAG and ACGT cis-elements in Arabidopsis thaliana reveals their involvement with genes downregulated under jasmonic acid response in an orientation independent manner.

Cis-regulatory elements are regions of noncoding DNA that regulate the transcription of neighboring genes. The study of cis-element architecture that functions in transcription regulation are essential. AAAG and ACGT are a class of cis-regulatory elements, known to interact with Dof and bZIP transcription factors respectively, and are known to regulate the expression of auxin response, gibberellin response, floral development, light response, seed storage proteins genes, biotic and abiotic stress genes in plants.

Co-expression network analysis of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) genes with stress-responsive genes in Arabidopsis thaliana reveals 13 key regulators.

Abiotic and biotic stresses adversely affect plant growth and development and eventually result in less yield and threaten food security worldwide. In plants, several studies have been carried out to understand molecular responses to abiotic and biotic stresses. However, the complete circuitry of stress-responsive genes that plants utilise in response to those environmental stresses are still unknown.
