The continuous delivery of glucose to the brain is critically important to the maintenance of normal metabolic function. However, elucidation of the hormonal regulation of in vivo cerebral glucose metabolism in humans has been limited by the lack of direct ...
Gestational diabetes coincides with elevated circulating progesterone levels. We show that progesterone accelerates the progression of diabetes in female dbdb mice. In contrast, RU486, an antagonist of the progesterone receptor (PR), reduces blood glucose ...
Glucose is the major substrate that sustains normal brain function. When the brain glucose concentration approaches zero, glucose transport across the blood-brain barrier becomes rate limiting for metabolism during, for example, increased metabolic activit ...
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Thiazolidinediones are new oral antidiabetic drugs that activate the nuclear receptor PPARgamma. Our aim was to identify potential target genes of PPARgamma in the human adipocyte in order to clarify how thiazolidinediones improve insulin ...
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the genes HXK2 and REG1 are believed to play a central role in carbon catabolite repression, acting on multiple pathways in the central metab. The present study aimed at quantifying the effect of deletion of genes HXK2 or REG1, ...
The authors investigated concomitant lactate and glucose metabolism in primary neuronal cultures using 13C- and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Neurons were incubated in a medium containing either [1-13C]glucose and different unlabeled lactate concentrations, or unla ...
Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2) plays an important role in the regulation of major carbohydrate fluxes as both allosteric activator and inhibitor of target enzymes. To examine the role of Fru-2,6-P2 in the regulation of hepatic carbohydrate metaboli ...
The effect of deep barbiturate anesthesia on brain glucose transport, TCA cycle flux, and aspartate, glutamate, and glutamine metabolism was assessed in the rat brain using 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 9.4 T in conjunction with [1-13C] gl ...
A new approach for the indirect detn. of cell concn. in the case of nonconstant metabolic rates has been developed. The specific glucose-uptake rate was shown to be nonconstant in batch cultures of free suspended and immobilized CHO SSF3 cells. Time-indepe ...
In this study, we defined the role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta (PPARdelta) in metabolic homeostasis by using subtype selective agonists. Analysis of rat L6 myotubes treated with the PPARdelta subtype-selective agonist, GW501516 ...
