Antiretroviral therapy in HIV-infected patients has progressed significantly over the past two decades.
Viral replication in patients who are complicit in their treatment regimen is greatly reduced below detection limits (quantification) by current and approved laboratory tests. However, the
Background information
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excessive fat accumulation in the liver and is defined by evidence of hepatic steatosis (via imaging or histology) and is not due to secondary liver fat accumulation from excessive alcohol consumption or hereditary
BACKGROUND Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic neurological disease affecting young adults, with onset usually at the age 20-40 years. The disease is characterized by two main phenotypes: Relapse-Remitting MS (RR-MS) and Primary Progressive MS (PP-MS). RR-MS is the most common type of

Background and hypothesis:
Our preclinical evidence shows that phospholipid-rich milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced increases in gut permeability and pro-inflammatory cytokines. MFGM also attenuates inflammation in association with a prebiotic and/or antimicrobial
Factors driving progression from steatosis (NAFL) to steatohepatitis (NASH) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) remain largely unknown. Considerable data now indicate that steatosis per se is not a hepatotoxic event and may represent in fact a protective mechanism against free
