Journal ArticleDOI

Initial sequencing and analysis of the human genome.

Eric S. Lander, +248 more
- 15 Feb 2001 - 
TL;DR: The results of an international collaboration to produce and make freely available a draft sequence of the human genome are reported and an initial analysis is presented, describing some of the insights that can be gleaned from the sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic-sequence comparison of two unrelated isolates of the human gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori

TL;DR: The overall genomic organization, gene order and predicted proteomes (sets of proteins encoded by the genomes) of the two strains are quite similar, and it is found that H. pylori was believed to exhibit a large degree of genomic and allelic diversity, but this is the first such genomic comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correction of hyperglycemia with phlorizin normalizes tissue sensitivity to insulin in diabetic rats.

TL;DR: The data demonstrate that a reduction of beta-cell mass leads to the development of insulin resistance, and correction of hyperglycemia with phlorizin, without change in insulin levels, normalizes insulin sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin resistance in uremia.

TL;DR: In this paper, the euglycemic insulin clamp technique was used to examine the tissue sensitivity to insulin in 17 chronically uremic and 36 control subjects, and the results indicated that hepatic glucose production was not impaired by uremia.
