Syringic acid, a novel natural phenolic acid, normalizes hyperglycemia with special reference to glycoprotein components in experimental diabetic rats
Jayachandran Muthukumaran,Subramani Srinivasan,Rantham Subramaniyam Venkatesan,Vinayagam Ramachandran,Udaiyar Muruganathan +4 more
TL;DR: The present findings suggest that syringic acid can potentially ameliorate glycoprotein components abnormalities in addition to its antidiabetic effect in experimental diabetes, and further clinical studies are required to evaluate the use of syringi acid as an effective therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Geniposide and its iridoid analogs exhibit antinociception by acting at the spinal GLP-1 receptors
TL;DR: The results suggest that geniposide and its iridoid analogs produce antinociception during persistent pain by activating the spinal GLP-1Rs and that the iridoids represented by genipOSide are orthosteric agonists of GLP -1Rs that function similarly in humans and rats and presumably act at the same binding site as exendin(9-39).

Global Prevalence of Diabetes: Estimates for the year 2000 and projections for 2030
TL;DR: Findings indicate that the "diabetes epidemic" will continue even if levels of obesity remain constant, and given the increasing prevalence of obesity, it is likely that these figures provide an underestimate of future diabetes prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI
The thiobarbituric acid assay of sialic acids.
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the different aspects of thiobarbituric acid assay of sialic acid, which is suitable for measuring the release of bound sialoic acid by sialidase and hydrolysis of sIALic acid-containing material must be carried out for the measurement of total sialsic acids.

Discovery of a metabolic pathway mediating glucose-induced desensitization of the glucose transport system. Role of hexosamine biosynthesis in the induction of insulin resistance.
TL;DR: It is indicated that a unique metabolic pathway exists in adipocytes that mediates desensitization of the insulin-responsive GTS, and that an early step in this pathway involves the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to glucosamine 6- phosphate by the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the hexosamine pathway, glutamine:fructose-6-ph phosphate amidotransferase.
