Objective: In obesity and type 2 diabetes, hyperglucagonaemia may be caused by elevated levels of glucagonotropic amino acids due to hepatic glucagon resistance at the level of amino acid turnover.Here, we investigated the effect of exogenous glucagon on circulating amino acids in obese and non-obese individuals with and without type 2 diabetes.Des

Sustainable replication and evolution of genetic molecules such as RNA are likely requisites for the emergence of life; however, these processes are easily affected by the appearance of parasitic molecules that replicate by relying on the function of other molecules, while not contributing to their replication.A possible mechanism to repress parasi
Background/AimsTo evaluate the adjuvant effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on first-line sequential therapy (SQT) for Helicobacter pylori infection.Methods : Patients with H.pylori infections were randomly assigned here to receive sequential therapy with (SQT+NAC group, n=49) or without (SQT-only group, n=50) NAC.Sequential therapy consisted of rabe
