Regulation of glucose metabolism in dairy cattle
… 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 addition of …

Chronic Circadian Disruption Alters Behaviour, Cardiac Function and Glucose Regulation in Mice
… strain shows several abnormalities, including insulin resistance, enlarged hearts, short circadian periods (22.75 hrs), and high stress reactivity. Whether these traits relate to circadian misalignment is less known. Here, we examined how the mismatch between BTBRs’ free-running period and the …

Sexual Dimorphism in Susceptibility to Age-Dependent Metabolic Disorders in Mice Born through ICSI
… Consequently, the majority of the so-called "test-tube babies" are born through ICSI nowadays. Many studies have shown that epigenetic alterations could occur in early embryos, which are largely due to extensive in vitro manipulation (e.g., washing, culture, injection, etc.) and/or …

Assessment and Treatment of Impaired Insulin- Secretion and Action in Type 2 Diabetes
… characterised by varying degrees of defect in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity and associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Optimal glycaemic control reduces the progression of diabetic complications. Over time, there is a steady deterioration of glycaemic control that raises …

Bone health and cardiovascular risk in hypopituitary patients on complete hormone replacement, including GH
… CP women, and an adequate substitution rate of testosterone and GH in AO GHD and CO CP men are possible explanations. GHD is also associated with increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. The impact of long-term GH replacement on cerebral- and cardiovascular diseases and diabetes …
