Background: physical activity in type 1 diabetic patients allows a better control of glycaemia and glycosylated hemoglobin, helps to maintain a residual endocrine pancreatic mass and optimizes subsequent insulin requirements. These improvements might be due in part to increases in anti-inflammatory cytokines that could help to minimize β-cell destruction. However, type, intensity and frequency of exercise for type 1 diabetic patients remain to be established. Case report: we present the case of a 48-year-old man diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 23. He is a professional alpinist and recently was recruited in a program of the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center (Russia) to be the first diabetic astronaut. Metabolic and inflammatory responses were assessed after performing two extreme activities. Discussion: well programmed extreme activities accompanied by a correct dietetic intervention can reduce the adverse metabolic and inflammatory processes that appear due to exercise and diabetes.

Diabetic Neuropathy (DN) is a widespread and severely debilitating consequence of diabetes mellitus that impairs function, causes discomfort, and damages peripheral nerves. Numerous molecular pathways are involved in the pathogenesis of DN, including cyclooxygenase, polyol, protein kinase C, and inflammatory pathways. These molecular pathways may be responsible for the mechanism behind the onset and development of DN.

Objectives: The pathogenesis of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) not only affects the ovarian structure and function but also gives rise to complications such as osteoporosis and dyslipidemia. Although low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been proven effective in treating POI, its impact on the associated complications remains unexplored. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effects of LIPUS irradiation on osteoporosis and dyslipidemia in a mouse model of POI.

Background: Magnolia kobus DC (MO), as a plant medicine, has been reported to have various physiological activities, including neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anti-diabetic effects. However, vascular protective effects of MO remain incompletely understood. In this study, we evaluated the vascular protective effect of MO against ferroptosis in a carotid artery ligation (CAL)-induced neointimal hyperplasia mouse model and in aortic thoracic smooth muscle A7r5 cells.

Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a metabolic disorder related to obesity and insulin resistance and is the primary determinant of the development of low-intensity chronic inflammation. This continuous inflammatory response culminates in neuroimmune-endocrine dysregulation responsible for the metabolic abnormalities and morbidities observed in individuals with MetS. Events such as the accumulation of visceral adipose tissue, increased plasma concentrations of free fatty acids, tissue hypoxia, and sympathetic hyperactivity in individuals with MetS may contribute to the activation of the innate immune response, which compromises cerebral microcirculation and the neurovascular unit, leading to the onset or progression of neurodegenerative diseases.
