Blood sugar2
- The snail insulin could prove useful as a tool to probe the systems the human body uses to control blood sugar and energy metabolism. (phys.org)
- Vinegar - your grandmother's cure-all has been found to slow insulin and blood sugar increases. (loomisco.com)
Stimulation4
- Cerulenin, an inhibitor of protein acylation, selectively attenuates nutrient stimulation of insulin release: a study in rat pancreatic islets. (diabetesjournals.org)
- Because protein acylation might be a sequel of cytosolic long-chain acyl-CoA accumulation, we examined if this reaction is engaged in nutrient stimulation of insulin release, using cerulenin, an inhibitor of protein acylation. (diabetesjournals.org)
- Obviously stimulation of insulin secretion is not a problem here. (weightology.net)
- Suppression of Insulin release upon Glucose stimulation is a characteristic feature of Type II Diabetes. (interscienceinstitute.com)
Excess1
- If the body cannot maintain this heightened insulin production, the excess glucose leads to diabetes and other health disorders. (sciencedaily.com)
