KATP channel blockers control glucagon secretion by distinct mechanisms: A direct stimulation of α-cells involving a [Ca2+]c rise and an indirect inhibition mediated by somatostatin

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2021
Objective: Glucagon is secreted by pancreatic α-cells in response to hypoglycemia and its hyperglycemic effect helps to restore normal blood glucose. Insulin and somatostatin (SST) secretions from β- and δ-cells, respectively, are stimulated by glucose ...

Functional Bread From Bambara Groundnut and Orange Peel Attenuates Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in a High‐Fat Diet/Streptozotocin‐Induced Type 2 Diabetes Rat Model

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
This study evaluated Bambara groundnut–wheat composite bread fortified with orange peel in diabetic rats. Diets significantly lowered blood glucose, inhibited α‐glucosidase and α‐amylase, and boosted antioxidant enzymes compared to controls. Results emphasize BG‐based functional foods' potential to help manage type 2 diabetes through regulation of ...

Class-Specific Immunochromatographic Assay Enabled by Mesoporous Nanozyme-Catalyzed Signal Amplification for On-Site Screening of Sulfonylureas

open access: yesFoods
Conventional immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) face limitations in sensitivity and dynamic range, hindering their application in on-site, class-specific screening of sulfonylurea (SU) adulteration in functional foods.

Stimulation of a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase by insulin and the sulfonylurea, glimepiride, in rat adipocytes depends on increased glucose transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and glycolipidanchored cAMP-binding ectoprotein (Gcel) are modified by glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI) in rat adipocytes, however, the linkage is potentially unstable. Incubation of the cells with either insulin (0.1-30 nM)

Pharmacogenetics in Type 2 Diabetes: Potential Implications for Clinical Practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pharmacogenetic research aims to study how genetic variation may influence drug efficacy and/or toxicity; pharmacogenomics expands this quest to the entire genome. Pharmacogenetic findings may help to uncover new drug targets, illuminate pathophysiology,

The Role and Therapeutic Potential of Voltage‐Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 in Metabolism‐Related Disorders

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, the global burden of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis has steadily increased, becoming a serious public health issue that poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Potassium channels, particularly the voltage‐gated Kv1.3 subtype, serve as critical regulators of cellular

Case Report: Beyond type 1 diabetes: a case of delayed MODY1 diagnosis and successful transition to sulfonylurea therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous form of diabetes characterized by early-onset dysglycaemia, typically before 25 years of age, and autosomal dominant inheritance.

Correlations Among Glycemia and Glucose Variability, Thyroid Hormones, and Albuminuria in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyperglycemia, glucose fluctuations, and thyroid dysfunction contribute to the progression of diabetic nephropathy. This study aimed to investigate the associations of glycemia, glucose variability, and thyroid hormones with albuminuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In total, 451 T2DM patients were included.
