Insulin Resistance: An Update on Biochemical and Pathophysiological Mechanisms and Impact on Various Diseases

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...

Hydrogel‐based drug delivery systems for intracerebral hemorrhage with therapeutic advances and emerging roles of the bone–brain axis

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Hydrogel‐based drug delivery systems offer a promising approach for treating intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) by overcoming blood‐brain barrier limitations, enabling precise, sustained release of neuroprotective and anti‐inflammatory agents. These systems enhance treatment efficacy, but challenges remain in biosafety, drug penetration, and scalability ...

Effects of Summer Heat Stress on Physiological Parameters and Reproductive Efficiency of Barbarine Ewes Under Natural Outdoor or Indoor Conditions

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change and rising ambient temperatures increasingly challenge sheep production systems in arid and semi‐arid regions, particularly during the summer breeding season. This study evaluated the effects of heat stress and direct solar exposure on physiological responses, metabolic profile, and reproductive performance of Barbarine ewes, a ...

Modeling of Blood Flow Dynamics in Rat Somatosensory Cortex

Biomedicines
Background: The cerebral microvasculature forms a dense network of interconnected blood vessels where flow is modulated partly by astrocytes. Increased neuronal activity stimulates astrocytes to release vasoactive substances at the endfeet, altering the ...
