Birds' glycolipid metabolism has garnered considerable attention due to their fasting blood glucose levels being nearly twice those of mammals. While skeletal muscle is the primary insulin-sensitive tissue in mammals, the effects of insulin on chicken skeletal muscle remain unclear. In this study, the insulin-responsive metabolites were identified in broiler's pectoralis muscle (after 16 h of fasting) using widely targeted metabolomics.

Glucose metabolism plays a pivotal role in physiological processes and cancer growth. The final stage of glycolysis, converting phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) into pyruvate, is catalyzed by the pyruvate kinase (PK) enzyme. Whereas PKM1 is mainly expressed in cells with high energy requirements, PKM2 is preferentially expressed in proliferating cells, including tumor cells.

Objectives: We investigated potential antihyperglycemic effects of HM-chromanone (HMC), a homoisoflavonoid isolated from , in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD).
Methods: Five-week-old male C57BL/6J mice ( = 24) were divided into three groups: controls, mice fed an HFD (11 weeks), and HFD-fed mice receiving HMC supplementation (8 weeks). Various analyses assessed liver and skeletal muscle proteins, pancreatic β-cell histology, blood glucose and HbA1c levels, and homeostatic index of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).

We planned to explore the protective activities of extract of L. (EPE) on insulin resistance and metabolic disorders including hyperlipidemia, visceral obesity, and renal dysfunction in high-fat diet (HFD)-progressed T2DM mice. Mice treatments included 7 weeks of HFD induction followed by EPE, fenofibrate (Feno), or metformin (Metf) treatment daily for another 4-week HFD in HFD-fed mice.

The pathological proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are key processes during vascular neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) and restenosis. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxy kinase 1 (PCK1) is closely related to a variety of malignant proliferative diseases. However, the role of PCK1 in VSMCs has rarely been investigated.
