Published: October 1996

The study group was composed of 50 workers exposed to electromagnetic radiation (radiowaves). Out of them 31 persons (62%), employed mostly in the risk zone, showed irregular glycaemia after oral administration of 75 g of glucose. At normal blood sugar before breakfast, the glycaemia level was high following administration of glucose and it did not return to starting values after 2 hours. After 30 min from glucose administration the level accounted for 155 mg%, after 60 min-180 mg%, after 90 min-153 mg% and after 120 min-124 mg%, on average. In 10 persons (32%) with glucose tolerance disturbances, disorders in bioelectric activity of the brain (abnormal EEG record) were observed.

Aim: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic syndrome characterised by absolute or relative insufficiency of insulin secretion. The alkaloids from Rhizoma coptidis have potential hypoglycemic effects. Epiberberine (EPI), a protoberberine alkaloid extracted from Rhizome coptidis, has been found to regulate lipid metabolism.

Soluble sugars provide energy sources required for plant growth and development. They also act as osmoprotectants to improve the salt tolerance of plants. However, molecular mechanism underlying the negative regulation of soluble sugar accumulation in plants under salt stress conditions remains unknown.

Buckwheat UDP-Glycosyltransferase FtUGT71K6 and FtUGT71K7 Tandem Repeats Contribute to Drought Tolerance by Regulating Epicatechin Synthesis.

Glycosyltransferase genes are organised as tandem repeats in the buckwheat genome, yet the functional implications and evolutionary significance of duplicated genes remain largely unexplored. In this study, gene family analysis revealed that FtUGT71K6 and FtUGT71K7 are tandem repeats in the buckwheat genome. Moreover, GWAS results for epicatechin suggested that this tandem repeat function was associated with epicatechin content of Tartary buckwheat germplasm, highlighting variations in the promoter haplotypes of FtUGT71K7 influenced epicatechin levels.

To level out the nutrient imbalance in diets, patients with carbohydrate and lipid metabolism disorders are prescribed to include specialized low-fat food with increased protein content. In this regard, the development and evaluation of the effectiveness of such products enriched with micronutrients is relevant. of the research was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a specialized fermented milk product for the dietary correction of carbohydrate and fat metabolism disorders.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the associations between rs724030 A>G variant and prediabetes risk, along with their correlations with clinical features, including plasma glucose and serum insulin levels during oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), islet function, insulin resistance, and plasma lipid levels. In particular, we investigated whether there are sex dimorphisms in the impact of this variant on islet function/insulin resistance.

Methods: We included 3415 glucose-tolerant healthy and 1744 prediabetes individuals based on OGTT.
