Stop-and-go kinetics in amyloid fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Many human diseases are associated with protein aggregation and fibrillation. Using glucagon as a model system for protein fibrillation we show that fibrils grow in an intermittent fashion, with periods of growth followed by long pauses. Remarkably, even

Abnormal CFTR Affects Glucagon Production by Islet α Cells in Cystic Fibrosis and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Glucagon, produced by islet α cells, functions to increase blood glucose. Abnormal glucose levels are often seen in cystic fibrosis (CF), a systematic disease caused by mutations of the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), and in polycystic ...

Case Series of Nizon‐Isidor Syndrome by Heterozygous Variants in MED12L With Further Evidence of Mitotic Instability in One Case With Diploid–Triploid Mosaicism

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nizon‐Isidor syndrome is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous variants in MED12L, with only eight documented cases in the literature. Here, we present three additional cases of this syndrome. Proband 1 was a 7‐year‐old female who presented with developmental delay, right‐leg hemihypertrophy, laryngeal cleft, esotropia, abnormal skin ...

Assessing the therapeutic potential of Tirzepatide in modulating inflammatory responses and mitigating acute pancreatitis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Tirzepatide: A peptide‐based GLP‐1/GIP receptor agonist, tested on L‐Arginine‐induced pancreatitis. Lipase/Amylase Levels: Initially elevated due to inflammation but normalized with Tirzepatide. Inflammatory Response: Reduction in pro‐inflammatory cytokines (IL‐6) and enhancement of anti‐inflammatory cytokines (IL‐4, IL‐10).

Hepatocyte-specific HIF-1α ablation improves obesity-induced glucose intolerance by reducing first-pass GLP-1 degradation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The decrease in incretin effects is an important etiologic component of type 2 diabetes with unknown mechanisms. In an attempt to understand obesity-induced changes in liver oxygen homeostasis, we found that liver HIF-1α expression was increased mainly ...
