Astrocyte Clocks and Glucose Homeostasis
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 The endogenous timekeeping system evolved to anticipate the time of the day through the 24 hours cycle of the Earth’s rotation. In mammals, the circadian clock governs rhythmic physiological and behavioral processes, including the daily oscillation in ...

Islet cilia and glucose homeostasis
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Diabetes is a growing pandemic affecting over ten percent of the U.S. population. Individuals with all types of diabetes exhibit glucose dysregulation due to altered function and coordination of pancreatic islets.

The ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus: watchdog of whole-body glucose homeostasis
Cell & Bioscience, 2022 The brain, particularly the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH), has been long known for its involvement in glucose sensing and whole-body glucose homeostasis.

How dietary amino acids and high protein diets influence insulin secretion
Physiological Reports, 2023 Glucose homeostasis is the maintenance and regulation of blood glucose concentration within a tight physiological range, essential for the functioning of most tissues and organs. This is primarily achieved by pancreatic secretion of insulin and glucagon.

Bitter taste receptors influence glucose homeostasis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 TAS1R- and TAS2R-type taste receptors are expressed in the gustatory system, where they detect sweet- and bitter-tasting stimuli, respectively. These receptors are also expressed in subsets of cells within the mammalian gastrointestinal tract, where they

Hypothalamic Proopiomelanocortin Is Necessary for Normal Glucose Homeostasis in Female Mice
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018 The arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus is a key regulator of energy balance and glucose homeostasis. In particular, arcuate proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons inhibit food intake, stimulate energy expenditure and increase glucose tolerance.

CFTR Deficiency Affects Glucose Homeostasis via Regulating GLUT4 Plasma Membrane Transportation
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. CF-related diabetes (CFRD) is one of the most prevalent comorbidities of CF.
