ABSTRACT Sulfonylureas, commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D), often lose effectiveness over time when used as monotherapy; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate the mechanisms of sulfonylurea failure, glibenclamide‐releasing pellets were implanted in KK mice, a polygenic model that spontaneously develops T2D. KK mice

Usability of Amorphous Manganese Oxide for Assessing the Proteoglycan Content in Articular Cartilage

Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 207-216, February 2026.
Amorphous manganese oxide nanoparticles exhibit high relaxivity and diffuse into articular cartilage faster than Gd‐DTPA, making them a promising agent for evaluating proteoglycan content. ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly common chronic disease that decreases functional capacity and can cause disability. The early detection of the disease could
