Nascent shifts in renal cellular metabolism, structure, and function due to chronic empagliflozin in prediabetic mice
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 2024 Apr 1;326(4):C1272-C1290. doi: 10.1152/ajpcell.00446.2023. Epub 2024 Mar 4.ABSTRACTSodium-glucose cotransporter, type 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are emerging as the gold standard for treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) with renal protective benefits independent of glucose lowering. We took a high-level approach to evaluate the effects of the SGLT2i, empagliflozin (EMPA) on renal metabolism and function in a prediabetic model of metabolic syndrome. Male and female 12-wk-old TallyHo (TH) mice, and their closest genetic lean strain (Swiss-Webster, SW) were treated with a high-milk-fat diet (HMFD) plu...

Differential susceptibility of BRL cells with/without insulin resistance and the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling pathway in response to acrylamide-exposure toxicity effects in vitro
Toxicology. 2024 Apr 9:153800. doi: 10.1016/j.tox.2024.153800. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAcrylamide (ACR) is an endogenous food contaminant, high levels of ACR have been detected in a large number of foods, causing widespread concern. Since different organism states respond differently to the toxic effects of pollutants, this study establishes an insulin-resistant BRL cell model to explore the differential susceptibility of BRL cells with/without insulin resistance in response to acrylamide-exposure (0.0002, 0.02, or 1mM) toxicity effects and its mechanism. The results showed that ACR exposure decreased glucose uptake ...

Yak IGFBP3 promotes hepatocyte proliferation through PI3K-Akt signaling pathway
Gene. 2024 Apr 9;917:148460. doi: 10.1016/j.gene.2024.148460. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIGFBP3 (Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3) constitutes a crucial constituent of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF), which are intimately associated with the organism's growth and development processes. Despite its significance, the precise function of IGFBP3 in yak liver development remains largely unexplored. In the present study, we systematically examined the expression profile of IGFBP3 in the liver tissues of yaks across various growth stages, elucidated its influence on the activity of yak hepatocytes, and probed ...

NSQIP 5-factor modified frailty index and complications after ileal anal pouch anastomosis for ulcerative colitis
CONCLUSION: IPAA for CUC is associated with high postoperative morbidity, however, the mFI-5 alone has limited utility in determining which patients are at a higher risk of complications due to frailty. These observations suggest there is a need for more relevant instruments to measure frailty in this patient cohort.PMID:38601734 | PMC:PMC11004715 | DOI:10.1016/j.sopen.2024.03.011 (Source: Anal Sci)

Longitudinal association between soft drink consumption and handgrip strength in adults: a prospective analysis from the Tianjin Chronic Low-Grade Systemic Inflammation and Health (TCLSIH) cohort study
Br J Nutr. 2024 Apr 11:1-8. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002817. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSoft drink consumption has become a highly controversial public health issue. Given the pattern of consumption in China, sugar-sweetened beverage is the main type of soft drink consumed. Due to containing high levels of fructose, a soft drink may have a deleterious effect on handgrip strength (HGS) due to oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin resistance. However, few studies show an association between soft drink consumption and HGS in adults. We aimed to investigate the association between soft drink consumption and longitudinal...
