DOI: 10.1080/01480545.2018.1510956

Abstract: Abstract Although several studies using peripheral blood samples suggest that DNA damage is caused by streptozotocin (STZ) per se, our hypothesis is that DNA damage is caused by STZ-induced glycemic changes. Thus, we aimed at… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Physiological genomics"

DOI: 10.1152/physiolgenomics.00077.2018

Abstract: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a highly prevalent condition causing increased risk of several life-threatening diseases. MetS has a pronounced hereditary basis but is also influenced by environmental factors, partly through epigenetic mechanisms. In this study,… read more here.
