LRH-1 agonism favours an immune-islet dialogue which protects against diabetes mellitus
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018-04-16)
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is due to the selective destruction of islet beta cells by immune cells. Current therapies focused on repressing the immune attack or stimulating beta cell regeneration still have limited ...

Metformin-mediated increase in DICER1 regulates microRNA expression and cellular senescence
(Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland, John Wiley & Sons, 2016)
Metformin, an oral hypoglycemic agent, has been used for decades to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent studies indicate that mice treated with metformin live longer and have fewer manifestations of age-related chronic ...

PAX4 preserves endoplasmic reticulum integrity preventing beta cell degeneration in a mouse model of type 1 diabetes mellitus
(Springer Nature, 2016)
[Aims/hypothesis]: A strategy to enhance pancreatic islet functional beta cell mass (BCM) while restraining inflammation, through the manipulation of molecular and cellular targets, would provide a means to counteract the ...

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Prevent Neurological Complications of Radiotherapy
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-05-16)
Radiotherapy is a highly effective tool for the treatment of brain cancer. However, radiation also causes detrimental effects in the healthy tissue, leading to neurocognitive sequelae that compromise the quality of life ...

Molecular modelling of islet β-cell adaptation to inflammation in pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019)
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a metabolic disease that develops with the increase in insulin resistance during late pregnancy, is currently one of the most common complications affecting pregnancy. The polygenic ...

Therapeutic Potential of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cancer Therapy
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are among the most frequently used cell type for regenerative medicine. A large number of studies have shown the beneficial effects of MSC-based therapies to treat different pathologies, ...

Metabolic Reprogramming by Acly Inhibition Using SB-204990 Alters Glucoregulation and Modulates Molecular Mechanisms Associated with Aging
(Springer Nature, 2023)
ATP-citrate lyase is a central integrator of cellular metabolism in the interface of protein, carbohydrate, and lipid metabolism. The physiological consequences as well as the molecular mechanisms orchestrating the response ...

The type 2 diabetes-associated HMG20A gene is mandatory for islet beta cell functional maturity article
(Springer Nature [academic journals on nature.com, 2018)
HMG20A (also known as iBRAF) is a chromatin factor involved in neuronal differentiation and maturation. Recently small nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HMG20A gene have been linked to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) ...
