Inositols in Insulin Signaling and Glucose Metabolism [PDF]
In the past decades, both the importance of inositol for human health and the complex interaction between glucose and inositol have been the subject of increasing consideration. Glucose has been shown to interfere with cellular transmembrane transport of

Role of lipotoxicity in achieving glycemic control in patients with diabetes type 2 and obesity
Obesity increases the risk of diabetes mellitus type 2 due to the development of insulin resistance. Therapy for diabetes mellitus type 2 is limited by a relatively small amount of knowledge on the mechanisms of insulin resistance, despite the ...

Study of Serum Leptin in Well-differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma: Correlation with Patient and Tumor Characteristics [PDF]
Background There is a proven relationship between obesity and several cancers including breast, endometrium, colorectal, and esophagus. With the increasing incidence of both obesity and thyroid cancer, we designed the present study to investigate a ...

Mechanism of the mitogenic influence of hyperinsulinemia [PDF]
Either endogenous or exogenous hyperinsulinemia in the setting of insulin resistance promotes phosphorylation and activation of farnesyltransferase, a ubiquitous enzyme that farnesylates Ras protein. Increased availability of farnesylated Ras at the plasma membrane enhances mitogenic responsiveness of cells to various growth factors, thus contributing ...

A novel therapeutic strategy for pancreatic neoplasia using a novel RNAi platform targeting PDX-1 [PDF]
Bi-functional shRNA (bi-shRNA), a novel RNA interference (RNAi) effector platform targeting PDX-1 utilizing a systemic DOTAP-Cholesterol delivery vehicle, was studied in three mouse models of progressive pancreatic neoplasia.

Elevated lactate in diabetes activates the GPR132‐Src pathway in macrophages, inducing macrophage senescence and further enhancing foam cell formation. This mechanism exacerbates atherosclerotic progression. Abstract Diabetes is widely acknowledged as a significant risk factor for atherosclerosis, facilitating plaque formation through various ...
