A peptidyl inhibitor of the high conductance Ca(2+)-activated K+ channels (KCa) has been purified to homogeneity from venom scorpion Androctonus mauretanicus mauretanicus. The peptide named kaliotoxin (KTX). It is a single 4-kDa polypeptide chain. Its complete amino acid sequence determined. KTX displays homology with other scorpion-derived inhibitors or voltage-gated channels: 44% charybdotoxin (CTX), 52% noxiustoxin (NTX), and iberiotoxin (IbTX). Electrophysiological experiments performed...
To date, no culture-specific food frequency questionnaires (FFQ) are available in North Africa. The aim of this study was to adapt and examine the reproducibility validity an FFQ or use Moroccan population. European Global Asthma Allergy Network (GA2LEN) used assess its applicability Morocco. GA2LEN is comprised 32 sections 200 items. Using scientific published literature, as well local resources, we identified added foods that were representative diet. Translation into Arabic carried out...
A clinical and biologic study was conducted in Morocco to assess the efficiency of antivenom therapy for treating victims scorpion stings. Epidemiologic data were collected from 275 patients envenomed by Androctonus mauretanicus Buthus occitanus scorpions. Patients received or other drugs. Blood samples at time hospital admission 1 hr 3 after treatment. Serum venom levels quantified using an ELISA. An association found between signs envenoming level serum. classified as grade II (moderate...

Abstract Objective: The Mediterranean diet (MD) is a dietary pattern associated with several health benefits, including reduction of risk for various cancers. We conducted study to investigate associations between adherence the MD and colorectal cancer (CRC) subtype among Moroccan adults. Design: A matched case-control study. Setting: five major university hospitals in Morocco. Participants: total 3032 subjects (1516 CRC patients 1516 controls) on age, sex center, were recruited September...
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) has emerged as a global human health threat. While SARS‐CoV‐2 infection exhibits fever and respiratory symptoms, extrarespiratory manifestations were also reported in many cases. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of digestive hepatic symptoms at onset assess whether are associated with severe progression. Patients Methods: Prospective was conducted during first COVID‐19 wave (from April October 2020). It included...
Three novel peptide inhibitors of the SKCa channels were purified to homogeneity from venom scorpion Androctonus mauretanicus using one step RP-HPLC and competition assays with [125I]apamin rat brain synaptosomes. PO1, PO2 PO5 have K0.5 100, 100 0.02 nM, respectively, for apamin binding site. The sequence was established compared that other toxins active on K+ channels: it contains 31 residues has a free carboxyl end. shares similarity leiurotoxin I.
The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between red and white meat subtypes, processed (divided into traditional "Khlii, Kaddid" industrially meat) colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, considering CRC subsites, in Moroccan adults. A case-control was conducted including 2,906 matched pairs recruited from five largest university hospitals Morocco. Dietary data were collected through a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Multivariable odds ratios (OR) 95% confidence intervals...
The present study aimed to investigate associations between adherence the recommendations on cancer prevention from WCRF/AICR and colorectal (CRC) risk in Morocco. Incident CRC cases (n = 1,516) controls matched age, sex center, were recruited September 2009 February 2017 at five major hospitals located In-person interviews conducted assess habitual diet using a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire, physical activity anthropometric measurements. Adherence WCRF/AIRC Recommendations was...
Serological tests based on the antibodies directed against Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EA) and viral capsid (VCA), which have been recognized as tumor markers for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), are routinely used to help in diagnosis of this malignancy. The detection these reveals very low titers, found only a small proportion young compared with older NPC patients. This is problem NPC, especially among Maghrebians, whom people also affected, emphasizes necessity search more reliable...
Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been reported as the third most commonly diagnosed worldwide and is currently considered a major public health concern. A peak increase in incidence noted economically transitioning countries like Morocco where industrialization started shifting from traditional lifestyle diet toward more westernized lifestyle. Objective This paper aims to present protocol of large-scale Moroccan case-control study that at investigating associations diet, other factors,...
Abstract Objectives: The current study aimed to develop a modified Mediterranean diet (MMD) score adjusted the southern countries’ cultural specificities and evaluate associations between adherence this overweight/obesity risk in Moroccan adults. Design: Population-based cross-sectional study. Setting: Rural urban areas of five greatest provinces Morocco. Participants: In total, 1516 participants were recruited September 2009 February 2017. Dietary assessment was obtained using validated...
The Moroccan cross-sectional study aimed to investigate obesity in association chronic obstructive pulmonary disease Fez city.A survey was carried out adults. Anthropometric and spirometry measurements were performed using standardized guidelines.Among the 744 participants, 53.9% of women, with a mean age 55.27 years (SD = 10.29). Nearly all women declared themselves be never smokers, while 21% men current smokers. Overall, prevalence decreased body mass index (p 0.01) waist circumference <...
