VITAMIN D AND GESTATIONAL DIABETES MELLITUS: IS THERE A LINK?

Vitamin D and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: Is There a Link?

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a very common condition among pregnant women worldwide with important metabolic implications on the mother and the offspring.Vitamin D status has been suggested to potentially play a role in GDM risk with no documented consequences for the offspring.The purpose of this article was to review currently available

DOS-3 mediates cell-non-autonomous DAF-16/FOXO activity in antagonizing age-related loss of C. elegans germline stem/progenitor cells

Abstract Age-related depletion of stem cells causes tissue degeneration and failure to tissue regeneration, driving aging at the organismal level.Previously we reported a cell-non-autonomous DAF-16/FOXO activity in antagonizing the age-related loss of germline stem/progenitor cells (GSPCs) in C.elegans, indicating that regulation of stem cell aging

Field Distortion and Optimization of a Vapor Cell in Rydberg Atom-Based Radio-Frequency Electric Field Measurement

Highly excited Rydberg atoms in a room-temperature vapor cell are promising for developing a radio-frequency (RF) electric field (E-field) sensor and relevant measurement standards with high accuracy and sensitivity.The all-optical sensing T Shirt approach is based on electromagnetically-induced transparency and Autler-Townes splitting induced by t
