Severe obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) submitted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) show significant improvement in glucose control after surgery upon discharge from the hospital, even before a considerable weight loss, with suppression of hypoglycemic drugs. Experimentally, the anatomical changes induced by RYGB can change genes expression in gastrointestinal tissue r…
LAMP3 (Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 3) gene also known as DC-LAMP, TSC403 or DC208 is responsible for immune response, in particular when it comes to antiviral response. It is located on chromosome 3q26.3-q27 and this region is amplified in invasive tumors of cervical cancers and in high-grade intra-epithelial lesions (NIC2 and NIC3) that precedes it. The altered expression is as…
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women, accounting for thousandsof deaths annually. Among the various mediators that act in the carcinogenic process,the components of Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) have assumed an important role.Angiotensin II (Ang II), better known peptide obtained from the cascade of events ofthe RAS, has vasoconstrictive, angiogenic, hyperplastic, prol…

The folliculogenesis is a process in which the ovarian follicle develops parallel with the oocyte growing and differentiation, pellucid zone formation and proliferation of granulosa cells (GCs) and raising the teca cells. In common conditions, only one follicle get maturity and only one oocyte is eliminated, while the other follicles goes to atresia. Approximately 20% of couples are infer…
The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age and affects 15 to 20% of women with infertility. The SOP has reproductive, endocrine, dermatological, gynecological, cardiac and psychological implications with symptoms ranging from infertility due to ovulatory dysfunction, menstrual disorders or androgenic symptoms. In addition, obesi…

The effect of increased age on fertility is well documented, with direct evidences for a temporal decline in ovarian performance with aging. However, the mechanisms by which aging interfere with oocyte quality are not yet complete understood. Abnormal chromosomal segregation is a potential explanation, but abnormal telomere biology has also been postulated as a causal determinant for biol…
