[ 1 ] - Antihyperglycemic effect of Rosa damascena is mediated by PPAR.γ gene expression in animal model of insulin resistance

Insulin resistance is a condition in which insulin signaling and action are impaired in insulin sensitive tissues and results in hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Our previous studies have shown that rosa damascena has antihyperglycemic effects on diabetic and normal rats. Therefore, we conducted a study to evaluate the effect of this medicinal plant on insulin sensiti...

[ 2 ] - The Effect of Co-administration of Pioglitazone and Simvastatin on Insulin Resistance Parameters and PPAR.γ Expression in Insulin-resistant Rats

Backgrounds: Insulin resistance is a pathological condition associated with metabolic syndrome. In this condition, insulin action in liver, muscles, and adipocytes decreases which leads to hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and dyslipidemia. Thiazolidinediones (Pioglitazone) have been used to enhance insulin sensitivity but due to dyslipidemia associated with insulin resistance, ...

[ 4 ] - Inhibition of Interleukin-1 Receptor-Associated Kinases 1/4, Increases Gene Expression and Serum Level of Adiponectin in Mouse Model of Insulin Resistance

Insulin resistance is a feature of most patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Epidemiological evidence suggests a correlation between inflammation and insulin resistant states such as obesity, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinases (IRAK) play a central role in inflammatory responses by regulating the expression of various inflammatory gen...

[ 5 ] - The Effects of Simvastatin on Free Fatty Acids Profile in Fructose-fed Insulin Resistant Rats

Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...
