The dipeptide Tyr-Pro, a novel natural agonist of adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1), promotes glucose uptake in skeletal muscle cells. This study investigated the antidiabetic effect of orally administered Tyr-Pro in spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) rats. Oral administration of Tyr-Pro (1 mg/kg/day) improved glucose intolerance in SDT rats at 22 weeks of prediabetic age. By 29 weeks of age, fasting blood glucose levels (BGLs) increased to 142 ± 14 mg/dL in the control group, whereas those in the Tyr-Pro group remained within the normal range (80-99 mg/dL), demonstrating a novel antidiabetic effect . Substantially increased levels of AdipoR1 and -AMPK/AMPK were observed in the skeletal muscle of Tyr-Pro-administrated SDT rats. The intake of Tyr-Pro also enhanced insulin secretion and inhibited -IRS-1(Ser) in skeletal muscle. These findings demonstrate that Tyr-Pro prevented the onset of diabetes and improved impaired insulin signaling pathways in SDT rats by inducing AdipoR1-mediated AMPK activation.

Sonodynamic therapy is an emerging therapeutic approach against brain tumours. However, the treatment scheme and ultrasound parameters have yet to be explored for clinical translation. Our study aimed to optimize ultrasound parameters for sonodynamic therapy (SDT) with 5-ALA as a sonosensitizing agent and to evaluate its therapeutic outcome on the rodent 9L gliosarcoma and the human U87 glioblastoma models.

Objective: To elucidate the mechanisms underlying diabetic osteoporosis, we conducted a comprehensive histological examination of the femora of Spontaneously Diabetic Torii-Lepr (SDT-fa/fa) rats, an established model of obesity-related type 2 diabetes.
Materials And Methods: Femora from 12 30-week-old male SDT-fa/fa rats and age-matched Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (controls) were used for detailed histochemical analyses, including tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), cathepsin K, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), phosphoethanolamine/ phosphocholine phosphatase 1 (PHOSPHO1), dentin matrix protein (DMP)-1, matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein (MEPE), sclerostin, osteocalcin staining, silver impregnation, von Kossa staining, and micro-computed tomography (CT).
Results: Micro-CT and hematoxylin-eosin staining demonstrated significantly reduced trabecular bone volume in the femoral metaphyses of SDT-fa/fa rats.

Bacterial infections present a formidable challenge in surgical procedures, and are a major threat to wound healing. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a non-invasive approach for fighting pathogens; however, it is hindered by the efficiency of sonosensitizers and effective antibacterial time. In this study, we developed a biocompatible nanodressing to improve the antibacterial efficacy and accelerate wound healing via SDT.
