Metformin use linked to reduced risk of myeloproliferative neoplasms

People who use metformin are less likely to develop a myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) over time, indicating that the treatment may help prevent the development of certain types of cancers, according to a study published in Blood Advances.

Study reveals lung vascular differences in growth-restricted fetuses

If during a pregnancy a fetus grows below normal thresholds, at each week of gestation there is an increased risk that some of its organs may not develop properly, which can adversely affect the baby's health after birth.

Johns Hopkins researchers identify key electrical activity behind congenital night blindness

In what they believe is a solution to a 30-year biological mystery, neuroscientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have used genetically engineered mice to address how one mutation in the gene for the light-sensing protein rhodopsin results in congenital stationary night blindness.

Genetic variants in XDH and SLC2A9 genes linked to T2DM control in Jordanian population

Announcing a new article publication for BIO Integration journal. This study determines the relationships between uric acid levels, specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes linked to uric acid metabolism [xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) and Solute carrier family 2 member 9 (SLC2A9) genes], and control of HbA1c levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) within the Jordanian population.

The role of follicular fluid glutamine in granulosa cell apoptosis and ovulation

The study found that FSH controls follicular fluid (FF) glutamine levels to determine ovulation. In mice, ovulation starts from FF-exposing granulosa cell (GC) apoptosis. FF glutamine, which decreases in pre-ovulation porcine FF, elevates in PCOS patients FF.
