Spinal tumors, although rare, pose significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment due to their complex biological
behavior and the variety of tumor types involved. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNA molecules,
have emerged as critical regulators of gene expression and play dual roles as oncogenes or tumor
suppressors, depending on their ta...

Soluble forms of vascular adhesion molecules, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1, accelerate atherosclerosis pathogenesis. The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of daily supplementation of 3 g cinnamon on the plasma levels of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 among patients with type 2 diabetes. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial was performed o...
