Starfruit Leaves as Glucose Absorption Inhibitor in Mice's Small Intestinal Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Background: Starfruit (Averrhoa carambola) leaves contain flavone derivatives that exhibit anti-hyperglycemic effects. This study aims to determine the effect of starfruit leaves in reducing glucose absorption in intestinal epithelial cells of mice ...

Various effects of repeated rifampin dosing on coproporphyrin levels in humans
In recent years, the identification of endogenous substrates as biomarkers became an uprising topic. Particularly coproporphyrins (CPs), byproducts of heme biosynthesis, are intensely investigated as biomarkers for predicting interactions with the ...

Calcium Absorption—A Paradigm for Mineral Absorption [PDF]
Intestinal calcium absorption proceeds by two mechanisms, an active transcellular process that takes place in the duodenum and a passive paracellular process throughout the small intestine. This article characterizes the three steps of transcellular calcium movement-entry, intracellular diffusion and extrusion-and identifies conditions that must be ...

Transmission channels for light in absorbing random media: from diffusive to ballistic-like transport [PDF]
While the absorption of light is ubiquitous in nature and in applications, the question remains how absorption modifies the transmission channels in random media.

Exogenous glucocorticoids increase the risk for osteoporosis, but the role of endogenous glucocorticoids remains elusive. Here, we describe the generation and validation of a loss- and a gain-of-function model of the cortisol producing enzyme 11β-HSD1 ...
