NERP‐4–Deleted VGF Impairs β‐Cell Granulogenesis and Insulin Secretion

The FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 24, 31 December 2025.
Neuroendocrine regulatory peptide‐4 (NERP‐4) processed from the VGF promotes insulin secretion and β‐cell maintenance by acting on the amino acid transporter SNAT2. VGF△NERP‐4 impaired β‐cell granulogenesis and granule replenishment needed for the second‐phase insulin secretion.

Mitochondrial ATP-Sensitive K+ Channel Opening Increased the Airway Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation by Activating the PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway in a Rat Model of Asthma

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2021
Abnormal proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) leads to airway remodeling and the development of asthma. This study aimed to assess whether mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ (mitoKATP) channels regulated the proliferation of ASMCs by ...

UCP2 Regulates the Glucagon Response to Fasting and Starvation [PDF]

, 2013
Glucagon is important for maintaining euglycemia during fasting/starvation, and abnormal glucagon secretion is associated with type 1 and type 2 diabetes; however, the mechanisms of hypoglycemia-induced glucagon secretion are poorly understood.

Dill extract induces elastic fiber neosynthesis and functional improvement in the ascending aorta of aged mice with reversal of age-dependent cardiac hypertrophy and involvement of lysyl oxidase-like-1 [PDF]

, 2020
Elastic fibers (90% elastin, 10% fibrillin-rich microfibrils) are synthesized only in early life and adolescence mainly by the vascular smooth muscle cells through the cross-linking of its soluble precursor, tropoelastin.

Insulinoma in a dog (Canis lupus familiaris) with concurrent non‐cardiogenic pulmonary oedema

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract A 12‐year‐old, female, neutered beagle presented with hypoglycaemia, sudden‐onset non‐ambulatory tetraparesis and a single tonic‐clonic seizure. Computed tomography revealed a pancreatic nodule, consistent with an insulinoma, an enlarged hepatic lymph node and ground‐glass attenuation of the lung parenchyma, most consistent with non ...

Successful medical management of insulinoma with diazoxide for 27 years

Endocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2020
Despite improvements in localisation techniques and surgical advances, some patients with insulinoma will not be cured by surgery or may not be suitable for surgery. Medical management with diazoxide is an option for such cases.
