Cardiac hypertrophy that affects hyperthyroidism occurs independently of the NLRP3 inflammasome
Pflugers Arch. 2024 Apr 29. doi: 10.1007/s00424-024-02965-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiac hypertrophy (CH) is an adaptive response to maintain cardiac function; however, persistent stress responses lead to contractile dysfunction and heart failure. Although inflammation is involved in these processes, the mechanisms that control cardiac inflammation and hypertrophy still need to be clarified. The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic multiprotein complex that mediates IL-1β production. The priming step of NLRP3 is essential for increasing the expression of its components and occurs following NF-κB activation. Hypert...

Biological functions of LncRNA SNHG14 in the development of thyroid cancer cells via targeting miR-206
This study aimed to determine lncRNA SNHG14 and miR-206 in Thyroid Cancer ( TC) and to explore the related mechanisms. Sixty-four samples of thyroid tissue were collected from patients with TC. TC cell lines and a normal human thyroid cell line (HTori-3) were bought. lncRNA SNHG14-siRNA (si-lncRNA SNHG14), lncRNA SNHG14-shRNA (sh-lncRNA SNHG14), blank plasmid (siRNA-NC), miR-206-inhibitor, miR-206-mimics were transfected into BHT101 and Ocut-2C cells. qRT-PCR quantified the expression of lncRNA SNHG14 and miR-206, and the expression of vimentin, Snail, N-cadherin, Slug, E-cadherin and ZO-1 proteins were identified via WB. ...

From Bench-to-Bedside: How Artificial Intelligence Is Changing Thyroid Nodule Diagnostics
CONCLUSIONS: Models predominantly used ultrasound images to predict malignancy. Of four FDA-approved products, only S-Detect was extensively validated. Implementing an AI model locally requires data sanitization and re-validation to ensure appropriate clinical performance.PMID:38679750 | DOI:10.1210/clinem/dgae277 (Source: The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism)

Comparison of lifetime mortality risk, incidence risk, and DALYs of baseline cancer rates among countries as a benchmark for radiation-related cancer risk
Statistical benchmark data are necessary when considering the basis for radiation protection criteria based on calculated risks. We herein focused on baseline mortality and incidence cancer rates as benchmark data collected from 33 countries. Furthermore, we calculated the lifetime mortality and incidence risks and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) for all solid cancers, colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, and leukemia using the baseline cancer rates and compared them among the countries. The results showed that the lifetime mortality and incidence risks and DALYs for all solid cancers differed a...

A Case of Thyroid Gland Abscess Caused by Brucella melitensis
Mikrobiyol Bul. 2024 Apr;58(2):217-223. doi: 10.5578/mb.20249810.ABSTRACTBrucellosis is a zoonotic disease endemic in many developing countries, including Türkiye. Among the species that are pathogenic for humans; Brucella melitensis is isolated from livestock animals like sheep and goats, Brucella abortus from cattle and Brucella suis from pigs. Laboratory diagnosis of infection caused by Brucella species with gram-negative coccobacillus morphology; can be made through characteristic culture features, serological tests and molecular methods. Brucellosis, which has a wide distribution of clinical signs and symptoms; can c...

Exploring salivary iodine concentration as a biomarker for iodine status and thyroid nodules in females from different water iodine areas: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: Using SIC as a biomarker, females in CIDA exhibited mild iodine deficiency, those in IIDA and IAA demonstrated moderate iodine deficiency, and those in IEA and IEHA exhibited an excess of iodine, consistent with SUIC to assess iodine status. SIC can be used as a good biomarker to evaluate the iodine status in population.PMID:38677523 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2024.04.023 (Source: The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition)
