A new familial form of a late-onset, persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy caused by a novel mutation in KCNJ11. [PDF]
The ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) functions as a metabo-electric transducer in regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. The pancreatic KATP channel is composed of a pore-forming inwardly-rectifying potassium channel, Kir6.2, and a ...

ABSTRACT The classical Michaelis–Menten model, under the standard quasi‐steady‐state approximation (sQSSA), is widely used in in vitro‐in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) studies using hepatocyte or human liver microsomal (HLM) assays to predict intrinsic hepatic clearance (Clint,vitro$$ {\mathrm{Cl}}_{\operatorname{int},\mathrm{vitro}} $$).

E-cadherin and cell adhesion: a role in architecture and function in the pancreatic islet [PDF]
Background/Aims: The efficient secretion of insulin from beta-cells requires extensive intra-islet communication. The cell surface adhesion protein epithelial (E)-cadherin (ECAD) establishes and maintains epithelial tissues such as the islets of ...

Post-hypoxic recovery of respiratory rhythm generation is gender dependent. [PDF]
The preBötzinger complex (preBötC) is a critical neuronal network for the generation of breathing. Lesioning the preBötC abolishes respiration, while when isolated in vitro, the preBötC continues to generate respiratory rhythmic activity.

Tryptophan metabolite atlas uncovers organ, age, and sex‐specific variations
Tryptophan metabolites were analyzed across twelve organs, the central nervous system, and serum in male and female mice at three life stages. We found tissue‐, sex‐, and age‐specific differences, including increased indole‐3‐pyruvate and kynurenine in aging males.

Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling of the PARP Inhibitor Niraparib
ABSTRACT A physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of niraparib and its primary metabolite using a relevant virtual cancer population is reported here. A series of in vitro experiments using liver S9, microsomes, and hepatocytes with various inhibitors and recombinant supersomes demonstrated that niraparib is specifically metabolized by ...

Small and big mouse islets were compared with special reference to their content of glucagon-producing α-cells and somatostatin-producing δ-cells. Areas stained for glucagon and somatostatin were measured in the largest cross section of small (diameter <
