background: obesity and overweight are accompanied with insulin resistance markers and diagnosed as a metabolic risk factor in prevalence and develop the asthma severity. regardless of biological role of inflammation markers in asthma, the effective mechanisms in relation to obesity and asthma are not fully understood. methods: this study investigates the relationship between insulin resistance...

background: the modern dairy cows, due to intensive selection for higher milk production during past decades, have become more resistant to insulin. accompanied with dmi depression in per parturient dairy cow, insulin resistance may lead to a massive release of non-esterified fatty acids (nefa) to bloodstream which might act as a start point for development of other diseases. objectives: the pu...

diabetes mellitus is the most common endocrine disorders in children. there is a close association between diabetes and other autoimmune disease especially thyroid disorders. as many as 20 percent of insulin dependent diabetic patients may have thyroid antibodies in their serum. the prevalence is 2-20 times greater than observed in normal populations. in this study, 122 patients with diabetes m...

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.   ...

in this study, the effects of late gestational undernutrition (lgu) on plasma concentration of insulin-like growth factor 1 (igf-i), leptin, insulin and glucose in subsequent sucking lambs was investigated. ten twin-bearing ewes were fed either restrictedly (restricted) or adequately (control) during the last six weeks of gestation and were fed ad libitum after parturition. blood samples were t...

objective: psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease. it may cause poor quality of life. the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of insulin resistance in patients with psoriasis to clarify the relationship between insulin resistance and psoriasis. materials and methods: this case-control study was conducted on 110 patients with psoriasis and 110 healthy people. fasting serum...

Objective(s): Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of magnesium supplementation on insulin receptor activity in elderly type 2 diabetes using a rat model and to provide experimental evidence for insulin resistance improvement by magn...
