The contrasting effects of two antimalarial drugs on insulin secretion [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Quinolines and artemisinins are the two most important antimalarial drugs worldwide. In addition to antimalarial effects, quinine has been extensively documented to directly stimulate insulin secretion, potentially causing hypoglycemia in malaria ...

Myricetin Amplifies Glucose–Stimulated Insulin Secretion via the cAMP-PKA-Epac-2 Signaling Cascade [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Aim: Myricetin, a natural bioflavonoid, is reported as an anti-diabetic agent since it possesses the ability to inhibit α-glucosidase activity, stimulate insulin action and secretion, manage ROS, and prevent diabetes complications.

Molecular and Cellular Bases of Lipodystrophy Syndromes

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Lipodystrophy syndromes are rare diseases originating from a generalized or partial loss of adipose tissue. Adipose tissue dysfunction results from heterogeneous genetic or acquired causes, but leads to similar metabolic complications with insulin ...

Pregnancy in Women With Monogenic Diabetes due to Pathogenic Variants of the Glucokinase Gene: Lessons and Challenges

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Heterozygous loss-of-function variants of the glucokinase (GCK) gene are responsible for a subtype of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). GCK-MODY is characterized by a mild hyperglycemia, mainly due to a higher blood glucose threshold for ...

Dunnigan lipodystrophy syndrome: French National Diagnosis and Care Protocol (PNDS; Protocole National de Diagnostic et de Soins)

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Dunnigan syndrome, or Familial Partial Lipodystrophy type 2 (FPLD2; ORPHA 2348), is a rare autosomal dominant disorder due to pathogenic variants of the LMNA gene. The objective of the French National Diagnosis and Care Protocol (PNDS; Protocole National

Insulin secretion assays in an engineered MIN6 cell line

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
Insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells is crucial for maintaining glucose homeostasis. The murine insulinoma derived MIN6 cell line is commonly used as a model for insulin secretion studies. However, its glucose responsiveness wanes with passaging,

Insulin secretion and insulin-producing tumors [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Review of Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010
Insulinomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic islet cells that retain the ability to produce and secrete insulin. In contrast to normally differentiated β-cells, insulinoma cells continue to secrete insulin and proinsulin at low blood glucose. This deregulated insulin secretion manifests clinically as fasting hypoglycemia.

MiR-184 regulates insulin secretion through repression of Slc25a22 [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
Insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells plays an essential role in blood glucose homeostasis and type 2 diabetes. Many genes are involved in the secretion of insulin and most of these genes can be targeted by microRNAs (miRNAs).

Defining the Relative Role of Insulin Clearance in Early Dysglycemia in Relation to Insulin Sensitivity and Insulin Secretion: The Microbiome and Insulin Longitudinal Evaluation Study (MILES)

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Insulin resistance and insufficient insulin secretion are well-recognized contributors to type 2 diabetes. A potential role of reduced insulin clearance has been suggested, but few studies have investigated the contribution of insulin clearance while ...
