Journal ArticleDOI
Prolactin Receptor Is Required for Normal Glucose Homeostasis and Modulation of β-Cell Mass during Pregnancy
TL;DR: This is the first in vivo demonstration that the action of pregnancy hormones, acting through Prlr, is required for normal maternal glucose tolerance during pregnancy by increasing beta-cell mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Prebiotic on Microbiota, Intestinal Permeability, and Glycemic Control in Children With Type 1 Diabetes
Josephine Ho,Alissa C. Nicolucci,Heidi Virtanen,Alana Schick,Jon Meddings,Raylene A. Reimer,Carol Huang +6 more
TL;DR: Prebiotics are a potentially novel, inexpensive, low-risk treatment addition for T1D that may improve glycemic control and gut microbiota and thereby insulin sensitivity.
Book ChapterDOI
Proneural bHLH genes in development and disease.
TL;DR: In all organisms, proneural genes control neurogenesis by regulating Notch-mediated lateral inhibition and initiating the expression of downstream differentiation genes and the general mode of proneural gene function has thus been elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetic ketoacidosis at type 1 diabetes diagnosis in children during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Josephine Ho,Elizabeth Rosolowsky,Danièle Pacaud,Carol Huang,Julie-Anne Lemay,Nicole K. Brockman,Mitchell Rath,Manpreet Doulla +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated whether the rate of severe presentations of new onset type 1 diabetes (DM1), such as, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) has changed since the COVID-19 public health measures were enacted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Participation of Akt, Menin, and p21 in Pregnancy-Induced β-Cell Proliferation
Elizabeth Hughes,Carol Huang +1 more
TL;DR: During pregnancy, placental hormones act through the prolactin receptor to increase β-cell mass by up regulatingβ-cell proliferation by engaging Jak2, Akt, menin/p18, and p21.
