abstractin the present work we set out to investigate the neuroprotective effects of noscapine (0.5-2 µm) in presence of d-glucose on primary murine foetal cortical neurons after oxygen–glucose deprivation/24 hrs recovery. cell viability, nitric oxide production and intracellular calcium ([ca2+]i) levels were evaluated by mtt assay, the modified griess method and fura-2 respectively. 25 and 100...

results coincubation of islets with vitamin d (10 nm) and 11.1 mm glucose increased islet insulin release (37.27 ± 3.75 vs. 24.64 ± 2.83 ng/islet/24 hours; p < 0.05), while vitamin d (1 and 10 nm) decreased insulin release in the presence of 16.7 mm glucose (21.14 ± 3.58 and 18.65 ± 3.84 vs. 37.71 ± 4.63 ng/ islet/24 hours; p < 0.05). islets preincubation with vitamin d (1 and 10 nm) increased ...

In the present research, the D-(+)-Glucose–confined water nanodroplets with mean size in the range of 6-11 nm were synthesized at D-(+)-Glucose different concentrations by AOT reverse micelles (RMs) method as a function of mass fraction of droplet (MFD) at the constant water-to-surfactant molar ratio ( W=40). The dynamic light scattering of the nano-sized water droplets containing the D-(+)-Glu...

it has been shown that enhanced acid secretion can be suppressed in the rat by systemic administration of glucose. we have recently reported that enhancement of acid secretion as a result of pentagastrin was diminished by intragastric administration of d-glucose. present study was designed to investigate whether intragastric d-glucose influences gastric acid secretion associated with carbachol ...
