    • Acute effect of meal glycemic index and glycemic load on blood glucose and insulin responses in humans 
      Galgani Fuentes, José; Aguirre, Carolina; Díaz Bustos, Erik (2006)
      Objective: Foods with contrasting glycemic index when incorporated into a meal, are able to differentially modify glycemia and insulinemia. However, little is known about whether this is dependent on the size of the meal. ...
    • Assessment of red blood cell glutathione status in insulin resistance 
      Galgani Fuentes, José; Vásquez, Karla; Leonelli, Giannella; Espinosa, Alejandra; Araya, Hector; Pérez Bravo, Francisco (2012)
      The aim of this study was to assess red blood cell glutathione from insulin-sensitive and insulin-resistant individuals before and after an oral glucose dose. Fifteen healthy, young (24 ± 5 years), nonobese (23 ± 2 kg·m ...
    • Fluoxetine Impairs Insulin Secretion without Modifying Extracellular Serotonin Levels in MIN6 beta-cells 
      Cataldo, L. R.; Cortés, V. A.; Mizgier, María Luisa; Aranda, E.; Mezzano, Diego; Olmos, P.; Galgani Fuentes, José; Suazo Sanhueza, José Lorenzo; Santos M., José Luis (Johann Ambrosius Barth Verlag Medizinverlage Heidelberg GMBH, 2015)
      Introduction: Pancreatic -cells synthetize and store Serotonin (5-Hydroxytriptamine, 5HT) which is co-released with insulin. It has been proposed that extracellular 5HT binds to specific cell surface receptors and modulate ...
    • Glycaemic index effects on fuel partitioning in humans 
      Díaz, E. O.; Galgani Fuentes, José; Aguirre, Carolina A. (BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2006-05)
      The purpose of this review was to examine the role of glycaemic index in fuel partitioning and body composition with emphasis on fat oxidation/storage in humans. This relationship is based on the hypothesis postulating ...
    • Insulin-Dependent H2O2 Production Is Higher in Muscle Fibers of Mice Fed with a High-Fat Diet 
      Espinosa, Alejandra; Campos, Cristian; Díaz Vegas, Alexis; Galgani Fuentes, José; Juretic Díaz, Nevenka Militza; Osorio Fuentealba, César; Bucarey, José L.; Tapia, Gladys; Valenzuela, Rodrigo; Contreras Ferrat, Ariel Eduardo; Llanos Vidal, Paola; Jaimovich Pérez, Enrique (2013)
      Insulin resistance is defined as a reduced ability of insulin to stimulate glucose utilization. C57BL/6 mice fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) are a model of insulin resistance. In skeletal muscle, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) ...
    • Nutrition discussion forum 
      Galgani Fuentes, José; Díaz Bustos, Erik; Aguirre, Carolina (2006)
    • Plasma Arachidonic Acid Influences Insulin-Stimulated Glucose Uptake in Healthy Adult Women 
      Galgani Fuentes, José; Aguirre, Carolina A.; Uauy Dagach-Imbarack, Ricardo; Díaz Bustos, Erik (Karger, 2007)
      Background: Fatty acids can modulate lipid metabolism, this is related to insulin resistance (IR). This study evaluated the relationship of plasma fatty acid profile with IR, fuel oxidative metabolism and plasma lipid ...
    • Potential role of skeletal muscle glucose metabolism on the regulation of insulin secretion 
      Mizgier, María Luisa; Casas Atala, Mariana; Contreras Ferrat, Ariel Eduardo; Llanos Vidal, Paola; Galgani Fuentes, José (2014)
      Pancreatic beta cells sense glucose flux and release as much insulin as required in order to maintain glycaemia within a narrow range. Insulin secretion is regulated by many factors including glucose, incretins, and ...
    • Second consensus of the chilean society of endocrinology and diabetes about insulin resistance II Consenso ... 
      Pollak, Felipe; Araya, Verónica; Lanas, Alejandra; Sapunar, Jorge; Arrese, Marco; Aylwin, Carmen Gloria; Bezanilla, Carmen Gloria; Carrasco, Elena; Carrasco, Fernando; Codner Dujovne, Ethel; Díaz Bustos, Erik; Durruty, Pilar; Galgani Fuentes, José; García, Hernán; Lahsen Matus de la Parra, Rodolfo; Liberman, C (Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2015)
