Comparative studies were carried out on GOD-trinder method for measuring glucose in serum with four different kinds of benzene-original phenols-phenyl hydroxide, 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,6-dichlorophenol and resorcinol. It is shown that when the three coloring systems-phenyl hydroxide, 2,4-dichlorophenol or resorcinol coupling with glucose oxidase-peroxidase-4-a minoantipyrine-hydrogen peroxide (GOD-POD-4-AA-H2O2) respectively were used for clinical assay of glucose in serum, the determination results showed no significant differences (P > 0.05). Compared with phenyl hydroxide, the coloring system of 2,4-dichlorophenol is better in the aspects of sensitivity, precision and accuracy; the resorcinol system has lower sensitivity with the advantage of faster detecting velocity, and larger linear range, and can be used for on-line rapid analysis of samples with more concentrated glucose in industry.

Obesity and type 2 diabetes are prevalent chronic diseases effectively managed by semaglutide. Here we studied the effects of semaglutide on the circulating proteome using baseline and end-of-treatment serum samples from two phase 3 trials in participants with overweight or obesity, with or without diabetes: STEP 1 (n = 1,311) and STEP 2 (n = 645). We identified evidence supporting broad effects of semaglutide, implicating processes related to body weight regulation, glycemic control, lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways.

Tirzepatide is a dual agonist of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors and is a promising therapeutic option for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Nevertheless, its effect and underlying mechanism on hepatic steatosis remain ambiguous. Herein, we explored the impact of tirzepatide on improving hepatic steatosis in diabetic mice, with a particular focus on the gut microbiota and bile acids (BAs) using animal models.

This study aimed to evaluate the antihyperglycemic and antioxidant activities of the lectin isolated from (BTL). Diabetes was induced in Wistar rats through low-dose streptozotocin injections. Following the confirmation of hyperglycaemia, the animals were treated with 150 mM NaCl, glibenclamide, or BTL at 600 or 900 mg/kg.

Objective: Post-resuscitation brain injury is a common sequela after cardiac arrest (CA). Increasing sirtuin1 (SIRT1) has been involved in neuroprotection in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) neurons, and we investigated its mechanism in post-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) rat brain injury by mediating p65 deacetylation modification to mediate hippocampal neuronal ferroptosis.
Methods: Sprague-Dawley rat CA/CPR model was established and treated with Ad-SIRT1 and Ad-GFP adenovirus vectors, or Erastin.

Background: About two-thirds of those with Alzheimer's disease (AD) are women, most of whom are post-menopausal. Menopause accelerates the risk for dementia by increasing the risk for metabolic, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular diseases. Mid-life metabolic disease (e.
