The Melanocortin-4 Receptor Integrates Circadian Light Cues and Metabolism [PDF]
The melanocortin system directs diverse physiological functions from coat color to body weight homoeostasis. A commonality among melanocortin-mediated processes is that many animals modulate similar processes on a circannual basis in response to longer ...

The effects of peripheral and central high insulin on brain insulin signaling and amyloid-β in young and old APP/PS1 mice [PDF]
Hyperinsulinemia is a risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). In vitro experiments describe potential connections between insulin, insulin signaling, and amyloid-β (Aβ), but in vivo experiments are needed to validate these relationships ...

A randomised controlled study of high intensity exercise as a dishabituating stimulus to improve hypoglycaemia awareness in people with type 1 diabetes:a proof of concept study [PDF]
Aims/hypothesis Approximately 25% of people with type 1 diabetes have suppressed counterregulatory hormonal and symptomatic responses to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia, which renders them at increased risk of severe, disabling hypoglycaemia.

Intravenous insulin infusion system to determine insulin regimen in diabetics.
An algorithm for insulin infusion system to control blood glucose was derived from results of intravenous (i.v.) insulin infusion performed on 10 diabetics. I.v. insulin infusion was done on 14 diabetics for 24 hr using the algorithm, and blood glucose was controlled within the proper range in all cases; mean blood glucose was 130 +/- 42 mg/100 ml ...

Use of continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion by a portable insulin pump during pregnancy in women with type 1 diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Background/aim: Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk for neonatal morbidity and mortality. One of the most important goals in treating pregnancies complicated with diabetes is keeping glucose level within the normal range, especially in
