Project description:Finally differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes are treated with insulin (0 or 100nM)or metformin (0 or 2mM)for 2 and 12 hours to understand insulin and metformin(an anti-diabetic drug commonly applied for Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus)action in adipose tissues.
Project description:Global transcript profiling to identify differentially expressed skeletal muscle genes in insulin resistance, a major risk factor for Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. Compared gene expression profiles of skeletal muscle tissues from 18 insulin-sensitive versus 17 insulin-resistant equally obese, non-diabetic Pima Indians. Keywords: other
Project description:Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) has been proposed to exert insulin-independent effects on lipid and bone metabolism. We investigated the effect of a 6-day s.c. GIP infusion on circulating lipids, white adipose tissue (WAT), brown adipose tissue (BAT), hepatic fat content, and inflammatory markers in patients with type 1 diabetes. In a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover study, 20 men with type 1 diabetes underwent a 6-day continuous s.c. infusion with GIP (6 pmol/kg/min) and placebo (saline), with an interposed seven-day washout period. Each intervention period involved three study days: Day 0 (baseline measurements, a baseline abdominal adipose tissue biopsy and blood sampling), Day 1 (fasting blood sample after 24 hours infusion), and Day 6 (fasting blood sample, an abdominal adipose tissue biopsy).
Project description:To evaluate functional consequences of insulin-deficient diabetes mellitus for adipose tissue, we used a genetically engineered pig model of mutant INS gene induced diabetes of youth (MIDY). Adipose tissue samples of MIDY pigs and wild-type (WT) littermate controls were analyzed by label-free proteomics to reveal pathways and key drivers significantly affected by chronic insulin deficiency and hyperglycemia.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE21321: Blood microRNA profiles and upregulation of hsa-miR-144 in males with type 2 diabetes mellitus. GSE26167: MicroRNA 144 impairs insulin signaling by inhibiting the expression of insulin receptor substrate 1 in Type 2 Diabetes mellitus Refer to individual Series
Project description:Glucocorticoid excess is linked to central obesity, adipose tissue insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of dexamethasone on gene expression in human subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue, in order to identify potential novel mechanisms and biomarkers for glucocorticoid-induced insulin resistance in adipose tissue. Dexamethasone changed the expression of 527 genes in both subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue. FKBP5 and CNR1 were the most responsive genes in both depots (~7-fold increase). Dexamethasone increased FKBP5 gene and protein expression in a dose-dependent manner in both depots, but FKBP5 protein levels were 10-fold higher in omental than subcutaneous adipose tissue. FKBP5 gene expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue was positively correlated with serum insulin, HOMA-IR and subcutaneous adipocyte diameter, while fold change in gene expression by dexamethasone was negatively correlated with clinical markers of insulin resistance, i.e. HbA1c, BMI, HOMA-IR and serum insulin. Only one gene, SERTM1, clearly differed in response to dexamethasone between the two depots. Dexamethasone at high concentrations, influences gene expression in both subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue in a similar pattern and promotes gene expression of FKBP5, a gene that may be implicated in glucocorticoid-induced insulin resistance. Paired human subcutaneous (sc) and omental (om) adipose tissue samples obtained from 4 non-diabetic adipose tissue donors (4 M; BMI: 20.8-27.5 Kg/m2) were incubated without (Ctr) or with dexamethasone (Dex, 3 M-NM-<M) for 24 h.
Project description:To evaluate molecular consequences of insulin-deficient diabetes mellitus for lung tissue, we used clinically diabetic pig model of mutant INS gene induced diabetes of youth (MIDY). A multi-omics analysis combining in-depth data-independent acquisition proteomics, and targeted lipidomics revealed multiple dysregulated proteins and lipids and associated biological pathways in the MIDY lung.
Project description:We profiled manually microdissected tubulointerstitial tissue from 43 IgA nephropathy, 3 diabetes mellitus nephropathy, 3 focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 3 lupus nephritis, 4 membranous nephropathy, and 9 minimal change disease biopsy cores and 22 nephrectomy controls by RNA sequencing. The 3 outliers which were not included in our main analysis were also uploaded in this database.
Project description:First version (1.0) of the Eindhoven Diabetes Simulator (EDES) model, describing postprandial glucose and insulin dynamics for a healthy human. Model can also be used to simulate insulin resistance (pre-diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome) and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Next to simulating a meal, the model can simulate oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT's).
