Regional Lipolysis Insulin Regulation
Adults who gain most of their excess weight in the abdominal area typically do not respond to insulin in the same way as lean adults. Researchers are trying to understand why fat tissue responds differently in people with different body types.
Role of Alpha-to-beta Cell Communication to Adapt Insulin Secretion to Insulin Resistance.
Glucagon secretion from α-cells has long been viewed as primarily a counterregulatory mechanism - e.g. an agent with a role to prevent blood sugar from decreasing to levels that compromise function. Our group, along with other researchers, have begun to identify a much more complex role for α-cells, raising questions …
Insulin Therapy for Postreperfusion Hyperglycemia
Glycemic control during liver transplantation is challenging especially after reperfusion of the liver graft. Insulin dose to treat postreperfusion hyperglycemia is retrospectively analyzed using historical data. The proposed dose then is prospectively applied to the patients to assess the adequacy of the insulin dose.
Insulin Sensitivity After Breast Cancer
Epidemiological studies have revealed that 60-80% of women with breast cancer (BC) develop metabolic disorders that are similar to those observed in conditions like type 2 diabetes. These metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance, obesity, hyperinsulinemia, and glucose intolerance, are associated with increased BC recurrence and mortality. Skeletal muscle is the …
tVNS, Motivation, and Insulin Sensitivity
Disturbances in energy metabolism significantly increase the risk of developing major depressive disorder (MDD), especially in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Insulin sensitivity may particularly impair reward anticipation and motivational processes, contributing to anhedonia, a core symptom of depression. Preclinical and clinical studies highlight the vagus nerve as a critical …
Effect of Celery Seed on the Components of Metabolic Syndrome, Insulin Sensitivity and Insulin Secretion
The Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is a cluster of cardiometabolic risk factors, which include abdominal obesity, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and high blood pressure. MS is a global health problem, it represents a risk factor for the progression of cardiovascular disease, which constitute the main cause of mortality in the world and in …
Insulin Resistance in Multiple System Atrophy
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare and fatal neurodegenerative disorder. The pathologic hallmark is the accumulation of aggregated alpha-synuclein in oligodendrocytes forming glial cytoplasmic inclusions. Some symptomatic treatments are available while disease-modification remains an unmet treatment need. Post-mortem findings suggest insulin resistance, i.e. reduced insulin signaling, in the brains …
Reversal of Lipid-Induced Insulin Resistance
The purpose of this study is to examine whether weight reduction decreases intramyocellular (IMCL) and hepatic lipid content, and improves insulin sensitivity of muscle and fat tissue in people who are insulin resistant and have a family history of type 2 diabetes. Hepatic mitochondrial oxidation will be assesses using a …
Exercise Training on Brain Insulin Responsiveness
The overarching goal of the current study is to investigate the effect of one acute bout of exercise on the brain insulin responsiveness in a cross-over study design. To this end, investigators will compare the effect of two single endurance exercise sessions with different intensities, namely moderate intensity continuous training …
Intranasal Insulin for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
To evaluate if intranasal insulin is effective in reducing PTSD symptoms.
