A series of articles concerned with determination of pH in the tumour and with studies of pH changes under induced hyperglycemia are reviewed. Based on the available data the following conclusions are drawn: pH in the tumour tissue is lower than in the initial normal or surrounding tissues by 0.5 units on the average; the optimal pH value is more acidic; alkalosis in the tumour-bearing organism is a hypercompensatory reaction of the host as a result of advanced tumour in which pH is dropped; the induced hyperglycemia promotes a pronounced decrease of pH in the tumour, pH of the normal tissues being unchanged; the possibility to decrease pH in the tumour should be taken into account when developing new methods of the antitumour therapy.

Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is a special type of diabetes characterized by clinical features including early onset of diabetes (before 30 years of age), autosomal dominant inheritance, impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion, and hyperglycemia. So far, 14 types of MODY have been reported, accounting for about 1%-5% of the patients with diabetes. MODY often presents with an insidious onset, and although 14 subtypes have been identified for MODY, it is frequently misdiagnosed as type 1 or type 2 diabetes due to overlapping clinical features and high costs and limitations of genetic testing.

The effects of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus on bone health in chronic kidney disease.

Fracture is an under-recognized but common complication of diabetes mellitus, with an incidence approaching twofold in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and up to sevenfold in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) compared with that in the general population. Both T1DM and T2DM induce chronic hyperglycaemia, leading to the accumulation of advanced glycosylation end products that affect osteoblast function, increased collagen crosslinking and a senescence phenotype promoting inflammation. Together with an increased incidence of microvascular disease and an increased risk of vitamin D deficiency, these factors reduce bone quality, thereby increasing bone fragility.

Bile acid sequestrant inhibits gluconeogenesis via inducing hepatic cysteine dioxygenase type 1 to reduce cysteine availability.

Bile acid sequestrants such as cholestyramine (ChTM) are gut-restricted bile acid binding resins that block intestine bile acid absorption and attenuate hepatic bile acid signaling. Bile acid sequestrants induce hepatic bile acid synthesis to promote cholesterol catabolism and are cholesterol lowering drugs. Bile acid sequestrants also reduce blood glucose in clinical trials and are approved drugs for treating hyperglycemia in type-2 diabetes.

Background: Antiplatelet drugs represent potential candidates for protecting the penumbral microcirculation during cerebral ischemia and improving the benefits of arterial recanalization in ischemic stroke. Yet while the efficacy of such adjuvant strategies has been shown to be highly time dependent, antiplatelet therapy at the acute phase of ischemic stroke cannot be envisioned until the diagnosis of stroke and its ischemic nature have been confirmed because of the presumed risk of worsening bleeding in case of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Here, we investigated this risk for 2 antiplatelet drugs currently being tested in clinical trials for ischemic stroke, glenzocimab and eptifibatide, in 2 mouse models of ICH.
