Skin tags, those small, soft growths that dangle from the skin, often appear without warning and can spark curiosity or ...

The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) system acts as a sensor of cellular ... hormones and cytokines such as insulin, leptin, and adiponectin can interact with the system, and it now appears to play ...

Abstract:        Obesity, a growing global issue, has been closely associated with an increased risk of various cancers, especially breast cancer. El ...

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology in ...

as well as Wnt and adrenergic signaling, as being negatively correlated with insulin sensitivity. This suggests altered protein turnover may contribute to insulin resistance. In contrast ...

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) are secreted into the extra-cellular matrix and inhibit cell growth through IGF-dependent and -independent mechanisms. In this study, we ...

These pathways include nuclear factor- B, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase ... levels leads to both insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Therefore, we propose here that the ...

which is the body’s ability to use insulin, a hormone that escorts blood sugar into cells, he explains. “Protein also slows the emptying of food from the stomach, which dampens the post-meal blood ...

The protein IGFBP7 is regulated by a gene with the same name. When this gene was knocked out in beta cells from people with type 2 diabetes, the researchers found an increased release of insulin.
