Specific insulin assays, insulin sensitivity and blood pressure.
Serum insulin concentrations have been used as markers of insulin resistance in population studies examining the relationship between insulin resistance and blood pressure, but the relationship is variable among studies. We hypothesized that differences in cross-reactivity of insulin assays with proinsulin and its split/des-amino products might account for the variation. We therefore examined f...
متن کاملInsulin sensitivity and blood pressure in black and white children.
Although insulin sensitivity is correlated with high blood pressure in adults, it is unclear whether such a relationship exists in children across ethnic groups. Therefore, the aims of the study were to establish (1) if body composition and insulin sensitivity were related to blood pressure in children, and (2) if any differences in blood pressure between white and black children were explained...
متن کاملZataria multiflora increases insulin sensitivity and PPARγ gene expression in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats
Objective(s):In insulin resistance, the insulin action in liver, muscles and adipocytes decreases and result in hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and hyperinsulinemia. In this study we evaluate the effect of Zataria multiflora extract on insulin sensitivity in high fructose fed insulin resistant rats, since this extract was shown antihyperglycemic effect in streptozotocin induced diabetes in rats. ...
متن کاملMagnesium supplementation enhances insulin sensitivity and decreases insulin resistance in diabetic rats
Objective(s): Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of magnesium supplementation on insulin receptor activity in elderly type 2 diabetes using a rat model and to provide experimental evidence for insulin resistance improvement by magn...
متن کاملEndogenous insulin and insulin sensitivity
Results There was a significant inverse correlation between forearm blood flow and insulin sensitivity (r="0·67, P=0·03), patients with lesser degrees of insulin sensitivity having the greater forearm blood flows. There was no correlation with the other haemodynamic or neurohumoral parameters. Patients with greater insulin resistance tended to have higher circulating endogenous insulin levels, ...
