Modulation of gut microbiota: The effects of a fruits and vegetables supplement by Arun Prasath Lakshmanan (6807152)

“…The antioxidant capacity, measured by using the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) method, was also slightly higher in the FVS group than in the PLA group but did not reach statistical significance. The dietary intake, assessed by 24-h recalls, did not show any significant changes after the supplementation in both the groups. …”

Understanding the Mechanism of Diabetes Mellitus in LRBA-Deficient Patient by Iman Hawari (12561958)

“…Consistent with our results, blood transcriptomic analysis revealed that abundance of aggregates related to T cells or B cells (A1 & A2) or inflammation (A33 & A35) did not differ compared to healthy controls. However, aggregates related to CD71+ erythroid cells, which have immunosuppressive characteristic, were highly upregulated in the LRBA-deficient patients.Experimental analysis of MIN6 cell in culture revealed that in siRNA-mediated-knockdown of LRBA revealed a significant decreased intracellular proinsulin and mature insulin inside β-cells in comparison so the wild type cells. …”
