Insulin Resistance: An Update on Biochemical and Pathophysiological Mechanisms and Impact on Various Diseases

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...

Targeting Renal IGFBP7 With Tetrahedral Framework Nucleic Acid‐Delivered siRNA Alleviates Acute Kidney Injury

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
A tFNA‐based siRNA delivery system targeting IGFBP7 effectively silences IGFBP7 expression and attenuates renal dysfunction, tubular injury, and cell death in both septic (CLP) and ischemic (I/R) murine models of acute kidney injury. ABSTRACT Objective Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious clinical condition, yet effective targeted ...

Glycemic Regulation and Renal Function by Heavy Metal Exposure: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis on Cement Plant Workers

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy metal exposure is known to have various effects on renal function and blood glucose regulation. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cement dust and some metal (cadmium, manganese, nickel, and zinc) exposure on blood glucose and renal function parameters in male cement plant workers.

A Study on Predicting Split Renal Function Using Renal Blood Flow Weighted Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate From Arterial Spin Labeling MRI

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Traditional methods for evaluating split renal function, including contrast‐enhanced CT and radionuclide imaging, have limitations related to ionizing radiation or potentially nephrotoxic contrast agents. Purpose To investigate the value of renal blood flow (RBF)‐weighted estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) derived from ...

METTL14 Ameliorates Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Autophagy in Lens Epithelial Cells of Diabetic Cataracts via m6A Modification of RPL3

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diabetic cataracts are a leading cause of blindness, with lens epithelial cells (LECs) exhibiting mitochondrial dysfunction and autophagy inhibition under high glucose (HG) conditions. Methyltransferase‐like 14 (METTL14), an RNA methyltransferase, regulates N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification; however, its role in modulating ...
