Bilirubin toxicity to the central nervous system (CNS) is responsible for severe and permanent neurologic damage, resulting in hearing loss, cognitive, movement impairment. Timely effective management of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia by phototherapy or exchange transfusion crucial avoiding neurological consequences, but these therapies are not always possible, particularly low-income countries. To explore alternative options, we investigated a pharmaceutical approach focused on protecting CNS...
Recent studies suggest that a circulating protein called TRAIL (TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand) might have role in the regulation of body weight and metabolism. Interestingly, thyroid hormones seem to increase tissue expression. This study aimed at evaluating whether overt disorders affected levels. levels were measured euthyroid, hyperthyroid, hypothyroid patients before after function normalization. Univariate multivariate analyses performed evaluate correlation between TRAIL. Then,...
