Glucose metabolism in the critically ill.
… tract is pivotal in the regulation of glucose metabolism in health and diabetes, this relationship had not been explored in the critically ill. The focus of this thesis is glucose metabolism in the critically ill, with a particular emphasis on the role of the gastrointestinal tract in …

An Extensible Mathematical Model of Glucose Metabolism
… care dollars.</p> <p>One must understand the glucose regulatory system of the healthy body to understand diabetes. Blood glucose concentration returns to a constant level after eating and is maintained during exercise. With thousands of chemical reactions involved in the process, a complete …

Regulation of glucose metabolism in dairy cattle
… and animal maintenance with particular regard to glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. The onset of milk production and parturition causes dramatic stress to the cow. The challenge of improving metabolism during this period is being addressed by nutritional management with the possibility of …

The Regulation of Glucose Metabolism during Osteoblast Differentiation
… I have investigated the alterations of cellular metabolism in osteoblast-lineage cells in response to two different bone anabolic signals, WNT and PTH. I have further elucidated the mechanism underlying the metabolic changes, and have explored the functional importance of such changes for bone …

Regulation of Akt ignal transduction by glucose metabolism
… the effect of perturbing PFKFB3 activity on glucose metabolism and insulin signalling. The PFKFB3 inhibitor 3PO decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, GLUT4 translocation and lactate production in adipocytes. These data suggest that glycolysis controls insulin-stimulated glucose entry …

Glucose Metabolism in Low Birth Weight Neonatal Pigs
… dissertation was that in utero disturbances in glucose metabolism and increased energy requirements predisposes LBWT neonatal pigs to metabolic disturbances after birth. We sought to increase growth of skeletal muscle and improve glucose production through increasing dietary energy and to …

Regulation of cellular glucose metabolism by HIV-1 infection
Regulation of Glucose metabolism is known to play an important role in pathogenesis of many diseases. Primarily because deregulation of this metabolic pathway can lead to either apoptosis or extended life span of the cells involved. Viruses are parasitic in nature, they utilize the host cellular …

Hypoglycemia-induced changes in glucose metabolism in the hypothalamus
… each year (1). It is characterized by low blood glucose concentration (less than 70 mg/dL or 4 mM) that can be attributed to a mismatch of insulin, food intake, sleep, and physical activity and can result in serious morbidity or death (2). The glucose counterregulatory response is the primary …

Adipogenesis and angiogenesis : roles in tissue engineering and glucose metabolism
… a role for the VEGF-VEGFR system in energy metabolism. For example, genetically obese mice treated with anti-VEGF antibody had lower fat pad weights, but the VEGF receptor responsible for this observation is not known. There is also disagreement on the cell type(s) responsible for fat …

Biochemical Studies on Uncoupling Proteins and Glucose Metabolism in Skeletal Muscle
… that they are involved in the regulation of metabolism rather than thermogenesis. The aim of my project was to investigate the relationship between uncoupling protein expression and alterations in glucose metabolism in different pathological conditions. In the first part of these studies, the …

The Effect of Osmotic Stimulation of Copeptin on Glucose Metabolism in Healthy Adults
… However, it is unknown whether this effect on glucose regulation is acute or chronic. Furthermore, no study to date assessed the effects of copeptin independent of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Purpose: The purpose of these studies was therefore two-fold: 1) to establish high …

Insulin Signaling & Glucose Metabolism in Glycolytic & Oxidative Muscle of High Fat Fed & Endurance Trained
… HFD leads to significantly high levels of blood glucose and insulin concentrations. These high concentrations were due to the reduction in the activity of key proteins in the insulin-signaling (IS) cascade, leading to blunted rates of glycogen synthesis (GSR) and reduced glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) …
