Insulin Resistance: From Theory To Practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Insulin resistance is at the core of the well recognised metabolic syndrome and possibly many other ailments commonly seen in the modern society. While the quantification of insulin resistance remains a difficult task, the problems associated with it are

Metabolic syndrome influences cardiac gene expression pattern at the transcript level in male ZDF rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Metabolic syndrome (coexisting visceral obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, and hypertension) is a prominent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, however, its effect on cardiac gene expression pattern is unclear ...

Correlation of the differential expression of PIK3R1 and its spliced variant, p55α, in pan‐cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PIK3R1 undergoes alternative splicing to generate the isoforms, p85α and p55α. By combining large patient datasets with laboratory experiments, we show that PIK3R1 spliced variants shape cancer behavior. While tumors lose the protective p85α isoform, p55α is overexpressed, changes linked to poorer survival and more pronounced in African American ...

Functional Analysis of Two Carboxylesterase Genes Involved in Beta-Cypermethrin and Phoxim Resistance in Plutella xylostella (L.)

open access: yesAgronomy
Enhanced expression of carboxylesterase (CarE) genes is an important mechanism of insecticide resistance in pests. However, their roles in multi-insecticide resistance have rarely been reported.

Diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease: clinical insights and vascular mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hypertension and type 2 diabetes are common comorbidities. Hypertension is twice as frequent in patients with diabetes compared with those who do not have diabetes.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Basroparib inhibits YAP‐driven cancers by stabilizing angiomotin

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Basroparib, a selective tankyrase inhibitor, suppresses Wnt signaling and attenuates YAP‐driven oncogenic programs by stabilizing angiomotin. It promotes AMOT–YAP complex formation, enforces cytoplasmic YAP sequestration, inhibits YAP/TEAD transcription, and sensitizes YAP‐active cancers, including KRAS‐mutant colorectal cancer, to MEK inhibition.

Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2012
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported that diabetes mellitus affected 8.3% of the United States population in 2011. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is insidious; of the 25.8 million persons affected, the CDC indicated that ≈7 million were undiagnosed subjects.1 The health care costs and burden of diabetes mellitus are substantial; although ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...
