Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are formed through non-enzymatic glycation, that have been linked to various diseases, including polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) playing a critical role leading to secondary comorbidities such as diabetes-related problems, cardiovascular complications, infertility, etc. As a result, there has been a lot of research into AGE-inhibiting phytochemicals for the remediation and obstruct progression of glycation-related illnesses. The current study is based on in-vitro protein model, in which human serum albumin have been used to investigate the cumulative effect of chlorogenic acid (CGA) and cholecalciferol (vitamin D) on glycation and evaluate their inhibitory impact on AGEs production in the presence of methylglyoxal.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A total of 93 individuals aged 12-16 years, including 62 T1DM patients and 31 healthy (H) controls, were included. Both groups were categorized into subgroups depending on their periodontal state.
The aim of the study was to investigate the phagocytic and metabolic activity of peripheral blood neutrophils in rats with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced periodontitis combined with chronic thiolactone hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy).The experiment included non-linear mature male rats (n=48), which were divided into 4 groups: control; animals with a periodontitis model; animals with a model of chronic thiolactone HHcy; animals with a model of periodontitis in combination with chronic thiolactone HHcy. Phagocytic activity, phagocytic index and phagocytic number were determined as indicators of phagocytosis of peripheral blood neutrophils.

Recent studies report an increased risk of enteric infections in patients treated with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) play a key role in host response to bacterial infection. We evaluated the effect of omeprazole and pantoprazole treatment on the PMN function.

Two new mononuclear mixed ligand copper(II) complexes [Cu(PBO)(Gly-gly)(HO)]·ClO·1.5HO (1) and [Cu(PBO)(Gly-L-leu)(HO)]·ClO (2) (PBO is 2-(2'-pyridyl)benzoxazole, Gly-gly and Gly-L-leu are Glycyl-glycine anion and Glycyl-L-leucine anion, respectively), have been prepared and characterized by various analytical and spectral techniques. The interactions of the complexes with DNA were investigated using multi-spectroscopic methods (absorption, emission, circular dichroism), viscometry and electrochemical titration as well as molecular docking technique.
