Comparative Analysis of Kinetic Realizations of Insulin Signaling [PDF]
Several studies have developed dynamical models to understand the underlying mechanisms of insulin signaling, a signaling cascade that leads to the translocation of glucose, the human body's main source of energy. Fortunately, reaction network analysis allows us to extract properties of dynamical systems without depending on their model parameter ...

TLR4 and Insulin Resistance [PDF]
Chronic inflammation is a key feature of insulin resistance and obesity. Toll-Like Receptor 4 (TLR4), involved in modulating innate immunity, is an important mediator of insulin resistance and its comorbidities. TLR4 contributes to the development of insulin resistance and inflammation through its activation by elevated exogenous ligands (e.g., dietary

Machine learning for the diagnosis of early stage diabetes using temporal glucose profiles [PDF]
Machine learning shows remarkable success for recognizing patterns in data. Here we apply the machine learning (ML) for the diagnosis of early stage diabetes, which is known as a challenging task in medicine. Blood glucose levels are tightly regulated by two counter-regulatory hormones, insulin and glucagon, and the failure of the glucose homeostasis ...

The Relationship Between Insulin Resistance Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio [PDF]
Aim: There is increasing interest in the role of chronic inflammation on pathogenesis of various disease, and one of its markers, high NLR is associated with various mortality and morbidity risk. Insulin resistance (IR) might be one potential associate factors, as suggested in preclinical studies.

TLR4 links innate immunity and fatty acid-induced insulin resistance.
TLR4 is the receptor for LPS and plays a critical role in innate immunity. Stimulation of TLR4 activates proinflammatory pathways and induces cytokine expression in a variety of cell types.

Fructose and hepatic insulin resistance
Excessive caloric intake in a form of high-fat diet (HFD) was long thought to be the major risk factor for development of obesity and its complications, such as fatty liver disease and insulin resistance.

Inflammation and insulin resistance [PDF]
Over a hundred years ago, high doses of salicylates were shown to lower glucose levels in diabetic patients. This should have been an important clue to link inflammation to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D), but the antihyperglycemic and antiinflammatory effects of salicylates were not connected to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance until ...

Sirtuins and Insulin Resistance [PDF]
The mammalian Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) are an evolutionarily conserved family of NAD+-dependent deacylase and mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase. Sirtuins display distinct subcellular localizations and functions and are involved in cell survival, senescence, metabolism and genome stability.
