Background: Fermentation of dietary fiber by the gut microbiota leads to the production of metabolites called short-chain fatty acids, which lower blood pressure and exert cardioprotective effects. Short-chain fatty acids activate host signaling responses via the functionally redundant receptors GPR41 and GPR43, which are highly expressed by immune cells. Whether and how these receptors protect against hypertension or mediate the cardioprotective effects of dietary fiber remains unknown.

Objectives: Unlike other diseases, cancer is not just a genome disease but should broadly be viewed as a disease of the cellular machinery. Therefore, integrative multifaceted approaches are crucial to understanding the complex nature of cancer biology. Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma 2), encoded by the human BCL-2 gene, is an anti-apoptotic molecule that plays a key role in apoptosis and genetic variation of Bcl-2 proteins and is vital in disrupting the apoptotic machinery.

Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is central to fibrinolysis regulation, and genetic variants such as the 4G/4G genotype predispose individuals to hypercoagulability. This case highlights a 46-year-old female patient presenting with acute mesenteric venous thrombosis, where genetic evaluation revealed homozygosity for the PAI-1 4G/4G polymorphism. Management with unfractionated heparin followed by a transition to direct oral anticoagulants led to clinical resolution.
