Journal ArticleDOI
The diabetic syndrome of the 'BB' Wistar rat: possible relevance to type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes in man.
TL;DR: Marked lymphopenia, mainly of thymus-derived (T) lymphocytes, both precedes and is sustained during glucose intolerance and overt diabetes, and appears to be associated reliably with insulitis, and may be a simple marker of susceptibility thereto.
Journal ArticleDOI
Islet Cell Surface Antibodies and Lymphocyte Antibodies in the Spontaneously Diabetic BB Wistar Rat
Thomas Dyrberg,Azima F. Nakhooda,Steinunn Baekkeskov,Åke Lernmark,Philippe Poussier,Errol B. Marliss +5 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that ICSA and splenic lymphocyte antibodies are present in diabetic BB rats.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Metabolic Response to Hypocaloric Protein Diets in Obese Man
TL;DR: The positive balance on refeeding after prior depletion of protein stores was likely due to the exogenous supply, combined with decreased catabolism and considerably increased reutilization, as well as the primary determinants of the protein-sparing observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normalization of Glycemia in Diabetics During Meals with Insulin and Glucagon Delivery by the Artificial Pancreas
Errol B. Marliss,F. T. Murray,E. F. Stokes,Bernard Zinman,Azima F. Nakhooda,Denoga A,Leibel Bs,Albisser Am +7 more
TL;DR: An extracorporeal “closed-loop” system has been employed to maintain glycemia in the normal range during consumption of meals in nine insulin-treated diabetics, providing a technique for complete normalization of blood glucose concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin, glucagon, and amino acids during glycemic control by the artificial pancreas in diabetic man.
A. K. Hanna,A. K. Hanna,Bernard Zinman,Bernard Zinman,Azima F. Nakhooda,Azima F. Nakhooda,Howard L. Minuk,Howard L. Minuk,Elaine F. Stokes,Elaine F. Stokes,A.Michael Albisser,A.Michael Albisser,Bernard S. Leibel,Bernard S. Leibel,E.B. Marliss,E.B. Marliss +15 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that glycemic control with AEP is accompanied by hyperinsulinemia, which could account for the amino acid responses and the small alterations in immunoreactive glucagon (IRG) patterns.
