  • The endocrine system includes the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis, the hypothalamic-pituitary-growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor-1 axis, and the hypothalamic-posterior pituitary axis, as well as other sources of hormones, such as the endocrine pancreas and endocrine adipose tissue.

  • Increased sympathetic nerve activity to the pancreas inhibits insulin secretion. (pharmacology2000.com)
  • This approach means that glucose sensing needs to be replaced and levels of insulin need to mimic physiological insulin-action profiles, including basal coverage and changes around meals. (studylib.net)
  • A major challenge of insulin replacement in patients with T1DM is mimicking the insulin-action profiles of β cells - maintaining basal levels and achieving peak levels at mealtimes. (studylib.net)
  • Insulin preparations have come a long way since the discovery of insulin, from purified animal insulins to human insulins produced by genetically modified organisms to insulin analogues that enable an improved fit between insulin-action profiles and glucose excursions (that is, fluctuations in levels of glucose). (studylib.net)
  • This explains its relative toxicity to beta cells, since these cells have relatively high levels of GLUT2. (bocsci.com)
  • Excessive administration of insulin is associated with elevated insulin levels. (medscape.com)
  • 2] The patient is instructed to fast, and plasma glucose, insulin, proinsulin, and C-peptide levels are measured every 6 hours until the plasma glucose level is less than 65 mg/dL, after which the testing frequency is increased to every 1-2 hours. (medscape.com)
  • However, this glucocentric approach was proved incorrect because firstly, some glucose-lowering drugs (muraglitazar, rosiglitazone) decreased HbA 1c levels but worsened CV outcomes, and secondly, the results of the post-trial follow-up of the UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS),and of a meta-analysis of large glucose-lowering outcome trials,suggested an approximately 15% cardiovascular risk reduction (RR) per 1% decrement in HbA 1c .

  • Increased glutamate levels result in a secondary insulin containing secretory granule pool release. (pharmacology2000.com)
  • Norepinephrine released by sympathetic nerve terminals interacts with α 2 -adrenergic receptors, producing this inhibitory action. (pharmacology2000.com)
  • SGLT belongs to the sodium/glucose cotransporter family SLCA5 [ 10 ]. (medsci.org)
  • Despite a century since the discovery of insulin, there is currently no known therapy that can effectively stop or reverse the progression of T1DM. (medsci.org)
  • Furthermore, we observe that islet SLC2A6 expression positively correlates with body mass index in human patients with type 2 diabetes. (ohio.edu)
  • Products end up as substrates for following reactions, to ultimately convert C6 glucose molecule into two C3 sugar molecules. (pharmfair.com)
  • These products enter the energy-releasing phase where the total of 4ATP and 2NADH molecules are generated per one glucose molecule. (pharmfair.com)
  • Phosphorylation states greatly regulate the activity and gating properties of Cav 3.1 T-type Ca2+ channels. (xenbase.org)
  • The alpha glucosidases are exoglycosidases found on the luminal surface of enterocytes containing maltase/glucoamylase and sucrase/isomaltase activity [ 2 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • The most extensively used animal model to create either type 1 or 2 diabetes is the utilization of Injected Streptozotocin (STZ) which was originally developed as an antibiotic for gram negative bacteria by the Upjohn company of Kalamazoo, Michigan and later found to cause diabetes [1].
