Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetabolic Markers of Insulin Resistance in Feline Hypertrophied Myocardium. Insulin Resistance in Heart FailureOleinikov Dmitrii ArkadievichInvestigation of myocardial tissue concentration of ATP, glucose transporters 1 and 4, pyruvate dehydrogenase, hexokinase 2, insulin receptor and adropin proteins, determining metabolic changes and possible insulin resistance in feline myocardium with hypertrophic phenotype. This is the pilot study for metabolic markers determination. Eighteen cats were studied, divided into 3 groups: Without cardiac disease (n = 5), cats with hypertrophic … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2020 · 6,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Mechanisms for Altered Glucose Homeostasis in HIV InfectionPaula W. HruzA complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to HIV-associated insulin resistance remains elusive. Complex interrelationships between genetic predisposition, disease-related body changes and multidrug therapy all contribute to alterations in glucose homeostasis. These abnormalities can be differentiated between acute and reversible changes directly induced by HAART medications and more chronic and less reversible changes due to the development of lipodystrophy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
