Betatrophin and Insulin Resistance
Betatrophin (angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8)) is a hormone that was recently discovered in the human liver. Multiple homologous sequences have been detected in mammalian liver, white adipose, and brown adipose tissues. Betatrophin is crucial for the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D), insulin resistance, and lipid metabolism.

Changing Clinical Characteristics according to Insulin Resistance and Insulin Secretion in Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic Patients in Korea [PDF]
BackgroundThe role of increased insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes has been emphasized in Asian populations. Thus, we evaluated the proportion of insulin resistance and the insulin secretory capacity in patients with early phase ...

Profiling Of Volatiles In Tissues Of Salacia Reticulata Wight. With Anti-Diabetic Potential Using GC-MS And Molecular Docking [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a global pandemic, it is a chronic, progressive and an incompletely understood metabolic condition. The disease is characterized by higher levels of sugar in blood caused either due to insufficient production of insulin or because of insulin resistance.

Insulin Signaling and Insulin Resistance [PDF]
Insulin resistance or its sequelae may be the common etiology of maladies associated with metabolic syndrome (eg, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, atherosclerosis, heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure). It is thus important to understand those factors that affect insulin sensitivity.

Security, extensibility, and redundancy in the Metabolic Operating System [PDF]
People living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) lose the ability to produce insulin naturally. To compensate, they inject synthetic insulin. One common way to inject insulin is through automated insulin delivery systems, which use sensors to monitor their metabolic state and an insulin pump device to adjust insulin to adapt.

Insulin Resistance and Atherosclerosis [PDF]
The epidemic of obesity in the developed world over the last two decades is driving a large increase in type 2 diabetes and consequentially setting the scene for an impending wave of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. It is only now being recognized that the major antecedent of type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance with its attendant syndrome, is ...

Inflammation and insulin resistance [PDF]
Obesity‐induced chronic inflammation is a key component in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and the Metabolic syndrome. In this review, we focus on the interconnection between obesity, inflammation and insulin resistance. Pro‐inflammatory cytokines can cause insulin resistance in adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and liver by inhibiting insulin ...

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Impairment of insulin-stimulated glucose utilization is associated with burn-induced insulin resistance in mouse muscle by hyperinsulinemic-isoglycemic clamp [PDF]
Burn-induced insulin resistance is associated with increased morbidity and mortality; however, the impact of burn injury on tissue-specific insulin sensitivity and its molecular mechanisms with consideration of insulin state remains unknown in rodent models.
