Is sIRT1 and CLOCK 3111T > C combined genotype associated with evening preference and weight loss resistance in a behavioral therapy treatment for obesity?
Variants of both SIRT1 and CLOCK have an additive effect on resistance to weight loss that could be related to the chronotype of the subject, higher plasma levels of ghrelin and less adherence to Mediterranean diet patterns.
Peripheral expansion of circulating Th1 but not Th2 cells predicts coronary ED after cardiac transplantation. Therefore, quantification of circulating T cells might be a diagnostic tool to predict development of ED in patients after heart transplantation.
