Journal ArticleDOI

Biosynthetic human insulin and proinsulin have additive but not synergistic effects on total body glucose disposal.

TL;DR: Using either approach to predict the glucose disposal rates, insulin and proinsulin appeared to have additive effects on total body glucose disposal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins and their role in modulating IGF-I action in BHK cells.

TL;DR: These results demonstrate coordinate regulation of IGFBP by serum starvation and IGF-I, such that at low concentrations of insulin, cell surface binding protein increases whereas binding protein secretion decreases, and at high concentrations of IGF-i, IGFBP secretion increases and cell surface IGF- I receptor decreases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adipocyte-specific Repression of PPAR-gamma by NCoR Contributes to Scleroderma Skin Fibrosis

TL;DR: The results implicate, for the first time, to the knowledge, deregulated NCoR/PPAR-γ pathways in SSc, and they support a role of adipocyte modulation of skin fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Deficiency in Myeloid Cells Does Not Prevent Diet-Induced Insulin Resistance

TL;DR: It is concluded that iNOS inhibition in tissues other than myeloid cells is responsible for the beneficial effects in obesity/insulin resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low pH accelerates dissociation of receptor-bound insulin.

TL;DR: Results indicate that low pH reduced insulin binding affinity by accelerating the rate of insulin dissociation, and this is accompanied by a reduction in the rates of receptor-mediated insulin degradation.
