Role for malic enzyme, pyruvate carboxylation, and mitochondrial malate import in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion

open access: yes, 2009
Pyruvate cycling has been implicated in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) from pancreatic beta-cells. The operation of some pyruvate cycling pathways is proposed to necessitate malate export from the mitochondria and NADP(+)-dependent ...

Rosuvastatin Treatment Affects Both Basal and Glucose-Induced Insulin Secretion in INS-1 832/13 Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Rosuvastatin is a member of the statin family. Like the other statins it is prescribed to lower cholesterol levels and thereby reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

Aging and Insulin Secretion

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1995
Aging in mammals has often been associated with decreased insulin secretion and a subsequent deterioration in the ability to maintain glucose homeostasis. However, recent studies have demonstrated that factors such as disease, obesity, and physical activity more closely reflect diminished insulin secretion rather than aging per se. Thus, the purpose of

Oscillatory glucose flux in INS 1 pancreatic beta cells: A self-referencing microbiosensor study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Signaling and insulin secretion in beta cells have been reported to demonstrate oscillatory modes, with abnormal oscillations associated with type 2 diabetes.

Diagnostic and referral pathways in patients with rare lipodystrophy and insulin-resistance syndromes: key milestones assessed from a national reference center

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases
Background Rare syndromes of lipodystrophy and insulin-resistance display heterogeneous clinical expressions. Their early recognition, diagnosis and management are required to avoid long-term complications.

Autoantibodies directed against insulin receptor during the course of Castleman disease: a new case reaffirming autoimmune hypoglycemia as a relapse warning signal

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
This case study presents the case of a 54-year-old human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive male who developed type B insulin resistance syndrome (TBIRS) in conjunction with a relapse of human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)-positive multicentric Castleman ...

Insulin receptor signaling in the GnRH neuron plays a role in the abnormal GnRH pulsatility of obese female mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Infertility associated with obesity is characterized by abnormal hormone release from reproductive tissues in the hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovary. These tissues maintain insulin sensitivity upon peripheral insulin resistance.

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

open access: yesTherapeutic 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 effects of the adipocyte-secreted proteins resistin and visfatin on the pancreatic beta-cell [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Wolverhampton for degree of Doctor of PhilosophyAdipose tissue secreted proteins (adipokines) have been proposed to form a link between obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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 ...
