Amylin induces hypoglycemia in mice.
Amylin is a 37-aminoacid pancreatic protein that exerts control over several metabolic events such as glycemia and lacticemia. Amylin has long been shown to induce increases in arterial plasma glucose. We decided to investigate whether amylin plays additional roles in the glucose metabolism. We evaluated glucose homeostasis using whole blood from the tail tip of fasting, conscious, unrestrained...
متن کاملIonizing radiation induces ferroptosis in splenic lymphocytes of mice
Backgrounds: It remains unclear whether radiation-induced haemorrhage in the spleen causes iron accumulation, and subsequently, ferroptosis in splenic lymphocytes. In this study, we investigated the occurrence of ferroptosis in splenic lymphocytes of gamma-irradiated mice. Materials and Methods: Mice were subjected to gamma radiation from a 137Cs source. Iron, Ferroportin 1, and iron regulatory...
متن کاملEven Silent Hypoglycemia Induces Cardiac Arrhythmias
While many studies have shown that intensive glycemic control can prevent the microvascular complications of diabetes, the benefits of intensive glycemic control in preventing macrovascular complications, including heart attacks, strokes, and overall mortality, have been less clear. Intensive glycemic control almost always increases the frequency and severity of hypoglycemic episodes. What rema...
متن کاملExercise induces hypoglycemia in rats with islet transplantation.
Recently, islet transplantation in patients with type 1 diabetes has had greater success than in the past, but the important question of whether the kinetics of islet secretion are able to accommodate the metabolic demands of special conditions such as exercise remains unanswered. Syngeneic rat islets (4,000 islet equivalents/rat) were transplanted into the liver, kidney, and peritoneal cavity ...
متن کاملAcute Hypoglycemia Induces Retinal Cell Death in Mouse
BACKGROUND Glucose is the most important metabolic substrate of the retina and maintenance of normoglycemia is an essential challenge for diabetic patients. Glycemic excursions could lead to cardiovascular disease, nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. A vast body of literature exists on hyperglycemia namely in the field of diabetic retinopathy, but very little is known about the deleterious...
