Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

The role of the small intestine in the development of dietary fat-induced obesity and insulin resistance in C57BL/6J mice [PDF]

, 2008
Background Obesity and insulin resistance are two major risk factors underlying the metabolic syndrome. The development of these metabolic disorders is frequently studied, but mainly in liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Microalbuminuria and Insulin Resistance [PDF]

, 2009
The glomerular barrier is highly selective and only minute amounts reaches the urine. Normally, the daily loss of albumin in urine is less than 30 mg and microalbuminuria denotes losses between 30-300 mg per day.

Insulin resistance and non alcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]

, 2023
Insulin resistance occurs when cells in the body don't respond properly to insulin and as a result, the body requires more insulin to regulate glucose levels.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Oral cabergoline for the management of equine pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction: Five cases

Open Veterinary Journal
Background: Oral pergolide has become the mainstay of treatment for equine pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID). It has a high success rate but some horses are, or become, refractory to the effects.

Is vascular insulin resistance an early step in diet-induced whole-body insulin resistance?

Nutrition & Diabetes, 2022
There is increasing evidence that skeletal muscle microvascular (capillary) blood flow plays an important role in glucose metabolism by increasing the delivery of glucose and insulin to the myocytes.

The effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance in hypertensive families [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: The hereditability of insulin resistance has been demonstrated in both familial and twin studies. The effects of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system gene polymorphisms on insulin resistance remain inconclusive.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
