Insula and Amygdala Atrophy Are Associated With Functional Impairment in Subjects With Presbycusis (Frontiers Media, 2020)Hearing loss is an important risk factor for dementia. However, the mechanisms that relate these disorders are still unknown. As a proxy of this relationship, we studied the structural brain changes associated with functional ...
-
(BRILL ACADEMIC PUBLISHERS, 2006-03)Liolaemus pictus is a widely distributed arboreal lizard species in southern Chile. Within this species, mainland and island subspecies have been described mainly based on external morphological characters, however, their ...

(MDPI, 2022)Simple Summary The following article studied the environment influence between island and mainland in an endemic marsupial from Chile the mouse-opossum Thylamys elegans (Waterhouse, 1839). Its important to understand that ...
-
(2006)Insulin analogues, developed by molecular engineering, have structural changes in the A and B insulin chains. These modifications change their action profile, rendering insulin replacement closer to physiology. Rapid acting ...
-
(Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2015)© 2015, Sociedad Medica de Santiago. All rights reserved. Insulin autoimmune syndrome (IAS) is characterized by spontaneous hypoglycemia with extremely high insulin levels and the presence of circulating autoantibodies ...
-
(The Company of Biologists Ltd, 2014)Insulin signaling includes generation of low levels of H2O2; however, its origin and contribution to insulin-stimulated glucose transport are unknown. We tested the impact of H2O2 on insulin-dependent glucose transport ...
-
(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2003-11)AIMS We have previously demonstrated that insulin sensitivity and secretion at age 1 year was in part related to variation in weight and height gain during infancy. In order to determine whether genetic variation at the ...
-
(2011)Transgenic mice carrying the human insulin gene driven by the K-cell glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) promoter secrete insulin and display normal glucose tolerance tests after their pancreatic β-cells have ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)The human insulin receptor (IR) exists in two isoforms that differ by the absence (IR-A) or the presence (IR-B) of a 12-amino acid segment encoded by exon 11. Both isoforms are functionally distinct regarding their binding ...
-
(2015)Reduced adenosine uptake via human equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hENT1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) from gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is reversed by insulin by restoring hENT1 ...
-
(BENTHAM SCIENCE PUBL LTD, 2008-10)Hyperinsulinemia as well as type II diabetes mellitus are among the risk factors for Alzheimer´s disease (AD). However, the molecular and cellular basis that link insulin resistance disorders and diabetes with AD are far ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2006-12)Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as a major cause of chronic liver disease in association with the rising prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes in the population. Oxidative stress and insulin ...
-
(2012)The heterogeneity of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) emphasizes the need for a consensual review of the data concerning its diagnosis and treatment and for determination of the relationship between the development of PCOS ...
-
(2011)Background: Effects of urbanisation on diabetes risk appear to be greater in indigenous populations worldwide than in populations of European origin, but the reasons are unclear. This cross-sectional study aimed to determine ...
-
(2009)The prevalence of obesity among children and adolescents is progressively increasing around the world. One of the important consequences of obesity is the development of insulin resistance (IR). This condition has a ...
-
(1992)Secretion and peripheral sensitivity to insulin was investigated in diabetic patients with secondary failure to oral hypoglycemic drugs. 8 patients with secondary failure (non responders), 7 non insulin dependent diabetic ...
-
(ELSEVIER, 2004-10)OBJECTIVE: We evaluated metabolic parameters in Chilean women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who were carriers and non-carriers of the glycine-to-arginine substitution at codon 972 (Gly972Arg) variant of insulin ...
-
(2006)Backgrounds: There is a high prevalence of obesity and hyperinsulinism among Chilean prepuberal children. Aim: To evaluate insulin sensitivity (IS) using fasting insulin, the Homeostasis Model Assessment (HOMA) and ...
