Serum Spexin Level Is Negatively Associated With Peripheral Neuropathy and Sensory Pain in Type 2 Diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Research
Conclusions: These results suggested that spexin might serve as a protective factor for diabetes against neuropathology and pain-related pathogenesis.

Usefulness of cortisol/ACTH ratio (CAR) for diagnosis of cushing's syndrome: comparison of CAR with findings in dexamethasone suppression test

Scientific Reports, 2022
Cushing's syndrome and subclinical Cushing's syndrome (SCS) are conditions of increased cortisol secretion from the adrenal glands. Cushing's syndrome includes adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-dependent Cushing's syndrome (Cushing's disease) and ACTH ...

Circadian regulation of glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism in humans. [PDF]

, 2018
The circadian system orchestrates metabolism in daily 24-hour cycles. Such rhythms organize metabolism by temporally separating opposing metabolic processes and by anticipating recurring feeding-fasting cycles to increase metabolic efficiency.

Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...

Cooperative metabolic resource allocation in spatially-structured systems [PDF]

J. Math. Biol. 2021; 82, 5, 2019
Natural selection has shaped the evolution of cells and multi-cellular organisms such that social cooperation can often be preferred over an individualistic approach to metabolic regulation. This paper extends a framework for dynamic metabolic resource allocation based on the maximum entropy principle to spatiotemporal models of metabolism with ...

Structural and functional differences in auto-antibody positive compared to auto-antibody negative hypothyroid patients with chronic thyroiditis

Scientific Reports, 2023
Most primary hypothyroidism in adults is caused by chronic thyroiditis. Autoantibodies such as anti-thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) are involved in the pathogenesis of chronic thyroiditis. On the other hand, the

A histidine‐rich extension of the mitochondrial F0 subunit ATP6 from the ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus increases ATP synthase activity in bacteria

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The glacier ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus survives year‐round at 0 °C. Its ATP6 subunit, which forms a regulatory component of the proton pore in mitochondrial ATP synthase, has a carboxy‐terminal extension not found in any other organism examined to date. Here, we show that fusion of this extension to the homologous AtpB protein in E. coli results

The Reconfiguration Pattern of Individual Brain Metabolic Connectome for Parkinson's Disease Identification [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Background: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) reveals metabolic abnormalities in Parkinson's disease (PD) at a systemic level. Previous metabolic connectome studies derived from groups of patients have failed to identify the individual neurophysiological details.

Applicability of free drug hypothesis to drugs with good membrane permeability that are not efflux transporter substrates: A microdialysis study in rats

Pharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2020
In clinical pharmacology, the free drug hypothesis has been widely applied in the interpretation of the relationship between pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (PK/PD).

Ablation of LRP6 in alpha‐smooth muscle actin‐expressing cells abrogates lung inflammation and fibrosis upon bleomycin‐induced lung injury

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.
