Metformin Can Attenuate Beta-Cell Hypersecretion—Implications for Treatment of Children with Obesity

open access: yesMetabolites, 2023
In children with obesity, insulin hypersecretion is proposed to precede insulin resistance. We investigated if metformin could be used to attenuate insulin secretion from palmitate-treated isolated islets and its implication for children with obesity ...

Insulin clearance and the incidence of type 2 diabetes in Hispanics and African Americans: the IRAS Family Study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
ObjectiveWe aimed to identify factors that are independently associated with the metabolic clearance rate of insulin (MCRI) and to examine the association of MCRI with incident type 2 diabetes in nondiabetic Hispanics and African Americans.Research ...

Metformin therapy in a hyperandrogenic anovulatory mutant murine model with polycystic ovarian syndrome characteristics improves oocyte maturity during superovulation

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2011
Background Metformin, an oral biguanide traditionally used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, is widely used for the management of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-related anovulation.

Iatrogenic Hyperinsulinemia, Not Hyperglycemia, Drives Insulin Resistance in Type 1 Diabetes as Revealed by Comparison With GCK-MODY (MODY2)

open access: yesDiabetes, 2019
Although insulin resistance consistently occurs with type 1 diabetes, its predominant driver is uncertain. We therefore determined the relative contributions of hyperglycemia and iatrogenic hyperinsulinemia to insulin resistance using hyperinsulinemic ...

21 hypoglycemia cases with hyperinsulinemia [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology, 2013
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.

Pathophysiology of Prediabetes Hyperinsulinemia and Insulin Resistance in the Cardiovascular System

open access: yesBiomedicines
Hyperinsulinemia refers to an elevated level of circulating insulin (80 and 100 µU/mL), often leading to metabolic disorders such as obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Obesity-related cognitive impairment: The role of endothelial dysfunction

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2019
Obesity is a global pandemic associated with macro- and microvascular endothelial dysfunction. Microvascular endothelial dysfunction has recently emerged as a significant risk factor for the development of cognitive impairment. In this review, we present
