in this study, a sodalite nanozeolite was synthesized and characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electronic microscopy (sem). following the morphology evolution of the sodalite nanozeolite in the sem images illustrates the formation of the spherical particle with a size between 60 and 80 nm. then, carbon paste electrode (cpe) was modified by sodalite nanozeolite and ni2+ ions. th...

objective(s):in insulin resistance, the insulin action in liver, muscles and adipocytes decreases and result in hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia. in this study we evaluate the effect of zataria multiflora extract on insulin sensitivity in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats, since this extract was shown antihyperglycemic effect in streptozotocin induced diabetes in rats.   ...

results coincubation of islets with vitamin d (10 nm) and 11.1 mm glucose increased islet insulin release (37.27 ± 3.75 vs. 24.64 ± 2.83 ng/islet/24 hours; p < 0.05), while vitamin d (1 and 10 nm) decreased insulin release in the presence of 16.7 mm glucose (21.14 ± 3.58 and 18.65 ± 3.84 vs. 37.71 ± 4.63 ng/ islet/24 hours; p < 0.05). islets preincubation with vitamin d (1 and 10 nm) increased ...

abstract        background and objective: the association of triglyceride/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (tg/hdl-c) ratio with fasting serum insulin, which is an alternative method of insulin resistance (ir) measurement, is well-recognized. thus, the measurement of tg/hdl-c ratio is useful to determine both ir and dyslipidemia, which itself is a characteristic of individuals with ir. ther...

the present study was conducted to test the effect of origanum majoranum extract (ome) of leaves on alterations induced in a model of type 2 diabetic rats. adult male wistar rats were fed high fat diet for 3 weeks and injected a single dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rats. diabetic rats were given aqueous extract of ome in a dose of 20 mg/kg orally ...

Human serum albumin has been used as a model protein for protein folding and ligand binding studies over many decades. Due to its long life period and high concentration in plasma, HSA is highly sensitive to glycation. It is reported that 175 mg/dL glucose concentration is a threshold of kidney activity for the beginning of excretion of glucose. pH denaturation of HSA in absence and presence of...
