Inhibition of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α action has recently been shown to reverse insulin
resistance dramatically and to improve glycemic control in obese rodents. This double-blind …

Serum GH concentrations are increased in fasted or malnourished human subjects. We
investigated the dynamic mechanisms underlying this phenomenon in nine normal men by …

AIM To investigate the relation between common acid-base parameters and blood lactate
concentrations and their prognostic importance in sick, ventilated neonates. METHODS Two …

Purpose Pyruvate uptake is higher in human embryos develo** to the blastocyst stage
than those arresting at cleavage stages. To investigate whether pyruvate uptake provides an …

Decreased insulin sensitivity is associated with diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease,
and hypertension, both independently and in association as what is called the metabolic …

A stepped intravenous metformin infusion was used in conjunction with the hyperglycaemic
clamp technique to study the dose‐response relationship of plasma metformin concentration …

Stimulation of lipolysis and the induction of resistance to insulin's actions on glucose
metabolism are well-recognized effects of growth hormone (GH). To evaluate whether these …

To determine if insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) inhibits pulsatile growth hormone (GH)
secretion in man, recombinant human IGF-I (rhIGF-I) was infused for 6 h at 10 micrograms …

To explore further the effects of the human amylin analog pramlintide on overall glycemic
control and postprandial responses of circulating glucose, glucagon, and metabolic …

This study is the first to assess the analytic potential of Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR)
spectroscopy in determining exercise-induced metabolic changes, such as glucose and …
