Hyperinsulinemia and oxidative stress
The aim of the study was to compare the effect of short-term hyperglycemia and short-term hyperinsulinemia on parameters of oxidative stress in Wistar rats. Twenty male rats (aged 3 months, average body weight 325 g) were tested by hyperinsulinemic clamp (100 IU/l) at two different glycemia levels (6 and 12 mmol/l).

Background: Hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH) is an important cause of persistent hypoglycemia in newborns and infants. Recently, PMM2 (phosphomannomutase 2) mutation has been associated with HH, especially in conjunction with polycystic kidney disease (

21 hypoglycemia cases with hyperinsulinemia [PDF]
Congenital hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (CHI) is the common cause of severe hypoglycemia in infancy. Profound hypoglycemia requires appropriate diagnosis and aggressive treatment to prevent severe and irreversible brain damage. Here we report 21 Japanese hypoglycemia cases with severe hyperinsulinemia.

Obesity is a multifactorial disease whose onset and development are shaped by the individual genetic background. The melanocortin 4 receptor gene (MC4R) is involved in the regulation of food intake and energy expenditure.

Regulation of Insulin Clearance by Non-Esterified Fatty Acids
Insulin stores lipid in adipocytes and prevents lipolysis and the release of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA). Excessive release of NEFA during sustained energy supply and increase in abdominal adiposity trigger systemic insulin resistance, including in

A causal role for hyperinsulinemia in obesity [PDF]
Insulin modulates the biochemical pathways controlling lipid uptake, lipolysis and lipogenesis at multiple levels. Elevated insulin levels are associated with obesity, and conversely, dietary and pharmacological manipulations that reduce insulin have occasionally been reported to cause weight loss.

Background There is controversy about the specific pathophysiology of metabolic syndrome (MS) but several authors have argued that hyperinsulinemia is a key feature of the cluster.

Objective To investigate if insulin resistance per se or the accompanying hyperinsulinemia induced hypertension and its underlying mechanisms. Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into normal diet-fed group (ND group) and high-fat diet-fed group ...
