Coenzyme Q10 is one of the most popular nutritional supplements, which has been discovered in 1955. It is also known as ubiquinone, Q10, CoQ and vitamin Q10. This coenzyme has two isoforms; the oxidized form, ubiquinone, is an electron... more
Benzylamine, a substrate of semicarbazide-sensitive amine ox-idase (SSAO), stimulates glucose transport in rat adipocytes and improves glucose disposal in diabetic rats only in the presence of vanadate. These effects have been described... more
In most vertebrates, uptake and oxidation of circulating sugars by locomotor muscles rises with increasing exercise intensity. However, uptake rate by muscle plateaus at moderate aerobic exercise intensities and intracellular fuels... more
The effects of camel milk (CM) intake on glycemic control in patients with diabetes are controversial. This systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted to summarize the effect of CM intake on... more
Diabetes is expected to increase up to 700 million people worldwide with type 2 diabetes being the most frequent. The use of nutritional interventions is one of the most natural approaches for managing the disease. Minerals are of... more
To compare endocrine, metabolic, and inflammatory changes induced by gastric bypass (GB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to investigate the mechanisms of success after metabolic surgery.... more
To identify novel coding association signals and facilitate characterization of mechanisms influencing glycemic traits and type 2 diabetes risk, we analyzed 109,215 variants derived from exome array genotyping together with an additional... more
Development of diabetes generally reflects an inadequate mass of insulin-producing beta-cells. beta-cell proliferation and differentiation are regulated by a variety of growth factors and hormones, including insulin-like growth factor I... more
Invasive candidiasis poses a major healthcare threat. The human opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata, which causes mucosal and deep-seated infections, is armed with distinct virulence attributes, including a family of 11... more
To identify novel coding association signals and facilitate characterization of mechanisms influencing glycemic traits and type 2 diabetes risk, we analyzed 109,215 variants derived from exome array genotyping together with an additional... more
Glucagon is a 29-amino acid polypeptide released from pancreatic islet α-cells that acts to maintain euglycemia by stimulating hepatic glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis. Despite its importance, there remains controversy about the... more
Obesity can lead to chronic inflammation in different tissues including the adipose tissue, liver, pancreas, and brain. This inflammatory process generates insulin and leptin resistance, as well as alterations in glucose and lipid... more
Aqueous extracts of some antidiabetic Ayurvedic plant treatments such as Trigonella foenum-graecum Linn (TFG), Pterocarpus marsupium Roxb (PM), Gymnema sylvestre R.Br (GS) and Curcuma longa Linn (CL) were tested for their biological... more
