Table_2_Immunomodulatory role of vitamin D and selenium supplementation in newly diagnosed Graves’ disease patients during methimazole treatment.pdf by Daniela Gallo (396073)

“…Introduction<p>Methimazole (MMI) represents the conventional therapeutic agent for Graves’ disease (GD) hyperthyroidism, but MMI efficacy is limited since it marginally affects the underlying autoimmune process. In a previous study, we randomly assigned 42 newly diagnosed GD patients with insufficient vitamin D (VitD) and selenium (Se) levels to treatment with MMI alone (standard) or combined with selenomethionine and cholecalciferol (intervention) and observed a prompter resolution of hyperthyroidism in the intervention group.…”

Parkin protects zebrafish from heat shock-induced cell death. by Mareike E. Fett (362814)

“…(<b>B</b>) There is no difference in the rate of cell death between parkin transgenic zebrafish and non-transgenic littermates (8.37±5.82 versus 8.56±5.59 dying cells). (<b>C+D</b>) Parkin-deficient zebrafish are more vulnerable to thermal stress, while transgenic parkin zebrafish are more resistant to thermal stress. 48 hours post fertilization zebrafish embryos were exposed to a heat shock (39°C) for 1 h followed by an 8 h recovery period at 29°C. …”
