Bile acids during pregnancy: Trimester variations and associations with glucose homeostasis [PDF]
Health Science Reports, 2021 Background and aims Bile acids are known to contribute to hepatic glucose and lipid metabolism regulation. Although glucose homeostasis sustains well‐characterized modifications during uncomplicated pregnancies, changes in bile acids concentrations and ...

Astrocyte Clocks and Glucose Homeostasis [PDF]
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 ...

Control of physiologic glucose homeostasis via hypothalamic modulation of gluconeogenic substrate availability [PDF]
Molecular MetabolismObjectives: The brain mobilizes glucose in emergency situations such as hypoglycemia as well as during day-to-day physiology such as fasting. While most hypothalamic neuronal populations that contribute to glucose mobilization also contribute to other ...

Islets and Glucose Homeostasis [PDF]
International Journal of Endocrinology, 2015 Diabetes mellitus is a chronic progressive metabolic disease, resulting from both insulin resistance and the dysfunction of beta-cells. Beta-cell apoptosis is a crucial pathophysiology leading to diabetes [1]. Aberrant immune system leads to destroying of beta-cells occurring in type 1 diabetes. Infiltration of immune cells around beta-cells and attack

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.

Evaluation of Perinatal Outcome in Women with Impaired Glucose Homeostasis During Pregnancy [PDF]
Modern Medicine, 2021 Background: Glucose tolerance testing in pregnancy identifies many women with glycaemic responses that exceed normal range but that do not meet the threshold required to diagnose Gestational Diabetes Mellitus.
