Surrogate measures of insulin resistance, based on the triglyceride-glucose index, can be used to predict the development of ...

Three ways of renal involvement in glucose homeostasis: glucose release from renal cortex via gluconeogenesis; glucose uptake and glycolysis from renal medulla for satisfying kidney energy needs ...

The role of the kidney in blood glucose-level regulation was until recently underestimated. Renal gluconeogenesis, renal glucose uptake and tubular glucose reabsorption are the three ways of renal ...

A research team revealed that insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 6 (IGFBP6) serves as a potential therapeutic target ...

In this video, Greg Foot explains the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and the role insulin plays in controlling glucose levels.

Impairment in the skeletal muscle's capacity to efficiently use or store glucose can disturb overall glucose homeostasis, potentially resulting in insulin resistance—a major risk factor for type ...

A recently study published in Nutrients reports that the regular consumption of mangoes may improve inflammation, insulin ...

Ancient Indian texts such as the Vedas, Puranas, and Bhagavad Gita provide profound insights into health and well-being.

Olive oil bioactives, including MUFAs, polyphenols, and triterpenoids, modulate gene expression linked to insulin sensitivity ...

This hormone, primarily produced in the liver and adipose tissues, plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism and glucose homeostasis. Recent research has highlighted its potential implications in ...

Physical activity is not only important for fitness but also for overall health. This is confirmed by a new study, which identified PanK4 as a key regulator of energy metabolism in skeletal muscle, ...
