Introduction: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous endocrinal physiological disorder characterized by chronic oligo-ovulation or an-ovulation, hyperandrogenism, and polycystic morphology in ovaries on transvaginal or abdominal ultrasound. Hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance are already well-documented pathophysiological mechanisms in PCOS. Besides this, autoimmunity has been hypothesized in its pathogenesis.

Metabolic interventions as adjunctive therapies to insulin in type 1 diabetes: Current clinical landscape and perspectives.

Diabetes Obes Metab

January 2025

Department of Physiology, Temerty Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is classically characterized as an autoimmune disease wherein the immune system erroneously attacks insulin-producing pancreatic β-cells, causing insulin insufficiency and severe metabolic dysregulation. However, intensive investigation and numerous clinical trials with immunotherapies have been largely unable to significantly alter the course of disease. Currently, there is no effective way to prevent or cure T1D, and insulin remains the cornerstone of T1D treatment.

Introduction: Type 1 diabetes involves immune-mediated destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, with eosinophils potentially playing a significant role. Recent studies suggest that leukotriene inhibition might influence this process. This case report presents a novel observation of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, reducing insulin requirements in a patient with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA).

RBM47 as a potential therapeutic target for thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy.

Int Immunopharmacol

January 2025

Department of Ophthalmology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan 430022, China. Electronic address:

RNA-binding motif 47 (RBM47) is a recently identified RNA-binding protein involved in early vertebrate development, immune homeostasis, and cancer development. This study examined the biological functions of RBM47 in thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO). Orbital fibroblasts (OFs) were obtained from the control (n = 6) and TAO groups (n = 6).

Article Synopsis
  • Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from an autoimmune attack that destroys insulin-producing beta cells, with its initiation linked to genetic, immunological, and environmental factors, particularly viral infections like Coxsackievirus B (CVB).
  • Research reveals that CVB serotype 1 (CVB1) may trigger autoimmune responses in genetically susceptible individuals, but the exact mechanisms of its replication in beta cells are unclear.
  • New findings indicate that the N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification influences CVB1 amplification, where downregulating m6A "writers" increases viral replication, while inhibiting "erasers" like FTO significantly decreases infectious CVB1 production, highlighting m6A's role
