An oral nanoplatform, MOP@T@D, which can maintain glucose homeostasis and restore islet β cells in diabetic rats is developed. It achieves efficient intestinal absorption and liver‐targeted delivery. The nanoparticle disintegrates only in response to hyperglycemia to release insulin on demand and provides antioxidant protection through selenoprotein ...

Recurrent reactive hypoglycemia due to clozapine‐induced glucose intolerance: A case report
Background Although diabetes is one of the most common side effects of clozapine, a medication for the treatment of schizophrenia, to the best of our knowledge no study exists on clozapine‐induced glucose intolerance or hypoglycemia in patients with ...

Neuronal SIRT1 Regulates Metabolic and Reproductive Function and the Response to Caloric Restriction. [PDF]
Sirt1 is an NAD-dependent, class III deacetylase that functions as a cellular energy sensor. In addition to its well-characterized effects in peripheral tissues, emerging evidence suggests that neuronal Sirt1 activity plays a role in the central ...

Demographic and metabolic characteristics of individuals with progressive glucose tolerance
We evaluated changes in glucose tolerance of 17 progressors and 62 non-progressors for 9 years to improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Changes in anthropometric measurements and responses to an oral glucose tolerance
