Aquaporins in health and disease
(2020)Aquaporins (AQPs) are transmembrane channel proteins that mainly facilitate the water translocation through the plasma cell membrane. For several years these proteins have been extensively examined for their biologic role ... -
Chemical Characterisation-Biological Evaluation of Greek Cultivar Cardoon Seeds (Cynara cardunculus)A By-product with Potential High Added Value
(2021)Cynara cardunculus (artichoke) is a perennial plant of the Mediterranean basin, known since antiquity as food and for its therapeutic properties. Cynara is a relatively small genus with two cultivated species and one wild ... -
The emerging role of helicobacter pylori-induced metabolic gastrointestinal dysmotility and neurodegeneration
(2017)Helicobacter pylori infection (Hp-I) is a prevalent disorder identified in themajority of the population in many countries around the world and is responsible for substantial gastrointestinal morbidity. Likewise, ... -
Fahr's syndrome due to hypoparathyroidism revisited: A case of parkinsonism and a review of all published cases
(2021)Introduction: Fahr's syndrome due to hypoparathyroidism refers to bilateral basal ganglia (BG) calcifications and manifests with movement disorders, seizures, cognitive and behavioral symptoms. Case presentation: We report ... -
Impact of reactive oxygen species generation on Helicobacter pylori-related extragastric diseases: a hypothesis
(2017)Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) production that contribute to pathogenesis of a variety of H. pylori-related gastric diseases, as shown in animal and human studies. Helicobacter pylori ... -
Lack of an association between SCFD1 rs10139154 polymorphism and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
(2022)Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (AL S) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease. Through a genome-wide association study (GWAS), the Sec1 family domain-containing protein 1 (SCFD1) rs10139154 variant at 14q12 has emerged ... -
Mitochondrial dynamics and proteins related to neurodegenerative diseases
(2018)Disruptions in the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and the occurrence of proteins misfolding lead to neuronal death, resulting in Age-related Dementia and Neurodegenerative diseases as well as Frailty. Functional, ... -
Peryton: A manual collection of experimentally supported microbe-disease associations
(2021)We present Peryton (https://dianalab.e-ce.uth.gr/peryton/), a database of experimentally supported microbe-disease associations. Its first version constitutes a novel resource hosting more than 7900 entries linking 43 ... -
The role of C9orf72 in neurodegenerative disorders: a systematic review, an updated meta-analysis, and the creation of an online database
(2019)A pathologic expansion of a noncoding GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat of the C9orf72 gene has been strongly associated with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal degeneration (FTD) cases predominantly ... -
SARS-CoV-2 dysregulation of PTBP1 and YWHAE/Z gene expression: A primer of neurodegeneration
(2020)SARS-CoV-2 neurotropism has been increasingly recognized by its imaging and syndromic manifestations in the literature. The purpose of this report is to explore the limited yet salient current evidence that SARS-CoV-2′s ...
