The role of noggin in regulation of high glucose-induced apoptosis and insulin secretion in INS-1 rat beta cells
Objective(s):The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Noggin on high glucose-induced apoptosis and insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cells. Materials and Methods: Different concentrations of glucose were used to examine their effects on INS-1 rat beta cells in vitro. When specific siRNA targeting Noggin and recombinant Noggin were added, apoptosis and insulin secretion wer...
متن کاملThe Effect of Green Tea versus Sour Tea on Insulin Resistance, Lipids Profiles and Oxidative Stress in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Background: By decreasing oxidative stress and whereby decreasing insulin resistance, it may be possible to decrease complications of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Green tea and sour tea contain phytochemicals which have anti-oxidative function. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of sour and green tea consumption on insulin resistance and oxidative stress in DM.Methods: This study is a ra...
متن کاملBeyond Blood Sugar: Early Diabetes Detection in Cats
Beyond Blood Sugar: Early Diabetes Detection in Cats The type of diabetes cats develop is believed to be similar to type 2 diabetes in humans (i.e., islet amyloid develops but not antibodies against beta cells). However, most cats require insulin therapy by the time they are presented for diabetes, implying that they are diagnosed belatedly in the disease process, after significant structural b...
متن کاملHighlighting Diabetes Mellitus
The defining feature of diabetes mellitus is the presence of hyperglycemia. The most common forms of diabetes mellitus are type 1 diabetes mellitus, in which an absolute deficiency of insulin ensues consequent to pancreatic beta cell destruction, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, in which insulin resistance may lead to hyperglycemia. Obesity is an important risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus,...
متن کاملINVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF MTNR1B RS4753426 GENETIC VARIANT IN THE TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS RISK
Background: Type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a multifactorial, polygenic disease caused by impaired insulin secretion, insulin resistance and beta-cell dysfunction. Melatonin is a circadian rhythm regulator and any imbalance in its levels can be related to various metabolic disorders. Melatonin and the genetic variants of MTNR1B gene are reported to be associated with T2DM susceptibility. We ...
