Interaction of Insulin Receptor Substrate 3 with Insulin Receptor, Insulin Receptor-related Receptor, Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Receptor, and Downstream Signaling Proteins [PDF]
Insulin receptor substrates (IRS) mediate biological actions of insulin, growth factors, and cytokines. All four mammalian IRS proteins contain pleckstrin homology (PH) and phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domains at their N termini. However, the molecules diverge in their C-terminal sequences.

Optimal Regulation of Blood Glucose Level in Type I Diabetes using Insulin and Glucagon [PDF]
The Glucose-Insulin-Glucagon nonlinear model [1-4] accurately describes how the body responds to exogenously supplied insulin and glucagon in patients affected by Type I diabetes. Based on this model, we design infusion rates of either insulin (monotherapy) or insulin and glucagon (dual therapy) that can optimally maintain the blood glucose level ...

Insulin signaling and its application
The discovery of insulin in 1921 introduced a new branch of research into insulin activity and insulin resistance. Many discoveries in this field have been applied to diagnosing and treating diseases related to insulin resistance.

Aging Regulated Through a Stability Model of Insulin/Insulin Growth Factor Receptor Function
Mutations of the insulin-like receptor in Drosophila extend lifespan. New research suggests this receptor operates in two modes. The first extends lifespan while slowing reproduction and reducing growth.

The Relationship Between Insulin Resistance Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio [PDF]
Aim: There is increasing interest in the role of chronic inflammation on pathogenesis of various disease, and one of its markers, high NLR is associated with various mortality and morbidity risk. Insulin resistance (IR) might be one potential associate factors, as suggested in preclinical studies.

Direct imaging of lateral movements of AMPA receptors inside synapses [PDF]
Trafficking of AMPA receptors in and out of synapses is crucial for synaptic plasticity. Previous studies have focused on the role of endo/exocytosis processes or that of lateral diffusion of extra-synaptic receptors. We have now directly imaged AMPAR movements inside and outside synapses of live neurons using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy ...

Intermittent Control for Safe Long-Acting Insulin Intensification for Type 2 Diabetes: In-Silico Experiment [PDF]
Around a third of type 2 diabetes patients (T2D) are escalated to basal insulin injections. Basal insulin dose is titrated to achieve a tight glycemic target without undue hypoglycemic risk. In the standard of care (SoC), titration is based on intermittent fasting blood glucose (FBG) measurements.

ATP sensitizes the insulin receptor to insulin. [PDF]
Insulin receptor with high insulin binding and tyrosine kinase activities has been prepared from human placenta. Based on a molecular mass of 306 kDa for the receptor (the value obtained from the sum of the amino acid residues), this preparation is capable of binding 1.48 mol of insulin per mol of receptor.

The impact of acute rosiglitazone on insulin pharmacokinetics at the blood‐brain barrier
Introduction CNS insulin levels are decreased and insulin receptor signalling is dampened in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Increasing CNS insulin levels through a variety of methods has been shown to improve memory.
