Obesity was associated with high serum vaspin concentrations and increased vaspin mRNA expression in human adipose tissue , insulin resistance, and type II diabetes. However, the mechanisms how vaspin secretion may be linked to deterioration of glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity are not understood. The aim of this work is to explore the effect of dietary regimen for 6 months on serum va...

The sodium-glucose co-transporter-2-inhibitors (SGLT2I) recently gained a unique role in managing the heart failure reduced ejection fraction. These inhibitors reduce cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, including plasma glucose, blood pressure, albuminuria, body weight, and renal events long term. clinical trials proved their reducing hospitalization for HF, CV all-cause mortality, atherosclerosi...

Abstract Moringa oleifera is an arboreal plant belonging to the family Moringaceae distributed in tropical areas and has gained enormous attention last decades. This research a review on association between aqueous extracts of M. leaves diabetes mellitus understanding its pharmacological functions underlying mechanisms. The refinement demonstrated pharmaceutical potential phytochemicals, given ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-related devastating neurodegenerative disorder, which severely impacts on the global economic development and healthcare system. Though AD has been studied for more than 100 years since 1906, the exact cause(s) and pathogenic mechanism(s) remain to be clarified. Also, the efficient disease-modifying treatment and ideal diagnostic method for AD are unavailable....

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play an essential role in metastasis and serve as important prognostic biomarker. The technology of CTC labeling detection vivo can greatly improve the research cancer therapy. However, there is no to detect CTCs clinic. In this study, we demonstrate that 2-[N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) amino]-2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-NBDG), a 2-deoxy-glucose analog, work ind...

Plants with hypoglycemic properties are important in the treatment of diabetes. One of the mechanisms in reducing blood glucose is preventing the digestive absorption of glucose. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant properties of some traditional medicinal plants collected from different regions of Iran and their effects on glucose diffusion decrease. The amounts of phenolic co...

There is controversy as to whether intestinal absorption of glycosylated flavonoids, and particularly quercetin glycosides, involves their uptake in intact form via the human sodium-coupled glucose transporter hSGLT1. We here describe studies using Xenopus oocytes that express hSGLT1 and the two-electrode voltage clamp technique to determine the transport characteristics of a variety of flavono...

Background and aim: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease with multiple complications. Skin tag is a pedunculated papule, which is more common in women and has been suggested as a cutaneous marker of diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of diabetes mellitus in patients with skin tags.Materials and methods: This descriptive study was...

INTRODUCTION Propolis is a natural product with many biological activities. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of Chinese propolis on glucose metabolism, antioxidant function, and inflammatory cytokines in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS In the 18-week study, recruited T2DM patients were randomly divided into a Chinese propolis group (900 mg/day) (n ...
