Association between cognitive performance and cortical glucose metabolism in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
, 2005 Background: Neuronal and synaptic function in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is measured in vivo by glucose metabolism using positron emission tomography (PET). Objective: We hypothesized that neuronal activation as measured by PET is a more sensitive index of

Localization of sterols and oxysterols in mouse brain reveals distinct spatial cholesterol metabolism [PDF]
, 2020 Dysregulated cholesterol metabolism is implicated in a number of neurological disorders. Many sterols, including cholesterol and its precursors and metabolites, are biologically active and important for proper brain function. However, spatial cholesterol

Chapter 11: The approach to achieving glycaemic control
South African Family Practice, 2018 Type 2 diabetes is a heterogeneous disease, with the underlying mechanism ranging from predominantly insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency, to predominantly an insulin secretory defect with lesser degrees of insulin resistance. The relative

Fructose metabolism and metabolic disease [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2018 Increased sugar consumption is increasingly considered to be a contributor to the worldwide epidemics of obesity and diabetes and their associated cardiometabolic risks. As a result of its unique metabolic properties, the fructose component of sugar may be particularly harmful.

Chapter 10: Glucose control: insulin therapy
South African Family Practice, 2018 Insulin and its analogues lower blood glucose by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake, especially by skeletal muscle and fat, and by inhibiting hepatic glucose production. Insulin inhibits lipolysis and proteolysis, and enhances protein synthesis.
