Defects in mitochondrial β-oxidation and branched chain amino acid (BCAA) oxidation are associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and other conditions such as Huntington's disease and maple syrup urine disease. Because of these defective mitochondrial pathways, production of TCA cycle intermediates can
The term "mucositis" was introduced to describe inflammation of the oral mucosa induced by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation. At present, oral mucositis is considered to be the most serious non-hematological complication of cancer treatment.
Numerous predisposing factors
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of inherited disorders of haemoglobin (Hb) synthesis, first described in the medical literature by James Herrick in 1910. Each year about 300,000 infants are born with SCD, including more than 200,000 cases in subSaharan Africa alone. In Nigeria alone, there are
1. Introduction Changes in nutritional status are a frequent complication in cirrhotic patients. The prevalence of malnutrition is related to the severity of the disease and has been reported by 65-90% in advanced cirrhosis. The most significant component of malnutrition is a progressive and

Atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the major cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the arteries in which activated macrophages are abundant in the atherosclerotic lesions. Macrophages play key roles during early atherogenesis.

The prevalence of obesity globally and in Singapore continues to rise despite increased public awareness and efforts to control weight. Its association with chronic metabolic diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, signify the serious implications of obesity on public
Sickle cell anaemia is an inherited haemoglobinopathy caused by a point missense mutation (GAG to GTG) in the beta globin gene that resulted in the substitution of an acidic amino acid ( glutamic acid) with a neutral and hydrophobic amino acid (valine) in the codon 6 of the beta globin chain. This
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in childhood are chronic relapsing and remitting inflammatory condition that have a significant impact on growth and development.
IBD involves a shift from a regulated intestinal immune response to one that is driven by unrestrained immune cell activation and
About 10% of African Americans have an abnormal hemoglobin gene. About 8% of African Americans are heterozygous for Hb S. In the United States, sickle cell anemia primarily occurs in the black population, with approximately 0.2% of African American children afflicted by this disease. The prevalence
