Evaluation of urinary 8-hydroxydeoxy-guanosine as a novel biomarker of macrovascular complications in type 2 diabetes

TL;DR: Hyperglycemia independently increases 8-OHdG in patients with type 2 diabetes, and this biomarker is a useful biomarker of not only microvascular but also macrovascular complications in Patients withType 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect on insulin sensitivity of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors with or without a sulphydryl group: Bradykinin may improve insulin resistance in dogs and humans

TL;DR: It is concluded that ACE inhibitors with a sulphydryl group have more potent action on the improvement in insulin sensitivity than those without a sulphytol group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bradykinin enhances GLUT4 translocation through the increase of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase in primary adipocytes: evidence that bradykinin stimulates the insulin signalling pathway.

TL;DR: It is concluded that bradykinin could potentiate insulin induced glucose uptake through GLUT4 translocation by upregulating the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity which stimulates phosphorylation of IRS-1, followed by GLUT 4 translocation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inherited adrenocorticotropin-independent macronodular adrenal hyperplasia with abnormal cortisol secretion by vasopressin and catecholamines: detection of the aberrant hormone receptors on adrenal gland.

TL;DR: An intervention could be tried to prevent the development of overt Cushing’s syndrome by suppression of the possible endogenous ligands or by blockade of the receptors that may be aberrantly expressed in his adrenal glands.
