Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Gender differences were not among the a priori hypotheses of the present study and, therefore, they must be considered to be preliminary findings, and postulate that this observation is a reflection of an interaction between glucose, sex steroids (estrogen), leptin, and dopamine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic Regulation in Progression to Autoimmune Diabetes
Marko Sysi-Aho,Andrey Ermolov,Peddinti Gopalacharyulu,Abhishek Tripathi,Tuulikki Seppänen-Laakso,Johanna Maukonen,Ismo Mattila,Suvi T. Ruohonen,Laura H. Vähätalo,Laxman Yetukuri,Taina Härkönen,Erno Lindfors,Janne Nikkilä,Jorma Ilonen,Jorma Ilonen,Olli Simell,Maria Saarela,Mikael Knip,Samuel Kaski,Eriika Savontaus,Eriika Savontaus,Matej Orešič +21 more
TL;DR: It is shown that female NOD mice who later progress to autoimmune diabetes exhibit the same lipidomic pattern as prediabetic children, and the findings indicate that autoimmune diabetes is preceded by a state of increased metabolic demands on the islets resulting in elevated insulin secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI
MMP-13 Regulates Growth of Wound Granulation Tissue and Modulates Gene Expression Signatures Involved in Inflammation, Proteolysis, and Cell Viability
Mervi Toriseva,Mervi Toriseva,Matti Laato,Olli Carpén,Suvi T. Ruohonen,Eriika Savontaus,Masaki Inada,Stephen M. Krane,Veli-Matti Kähäri,Veli-Matti Kähäri +9 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for an important role for MMP-13 in wound healing by coordinating cellular activities important in the growth and maturation of granulation tissue, including myofibroblast function, inflammation, angiogenesis, and proteolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of equal caloric high fat and western diet on metabolic syndrome, oxidative stress and vascular endothelial function in mice.
Ilkka Heinonen,Ilkka Heinonen,Petteri Rinne,Suvi T. Ruohonen,Saku Ruohonen,Saku Ruohonen,Markku Ahotupa,Eriika Savontaus,Eriika Savontaus +8 more
TL;DR: It remains to be determined whether high fat rather than Western diet exacerbates the development of obesity and other characteristics of metabolic syndrome and vascular function.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that vimentin forms a central part of a mechanochemical transduction pathway that regulates multilayer communication and structural homeostasis of the arterial wall.
