Construction, evaluation, and AOP framework-based application of the EpPRS as a genetic surrogate for assessing environmental pollutants
CONCLUSIONS: EpPRSs can serve as a proxy for assessing pollutant internal exposure. The application of the EpPRS to disease risk assessment can reveal the toxic pathway and mode of action linking exposure and disease in detail, providing a basis for the development of environmental pollutant control strategies.PMID:37734146 | DOI:10.1016/j.envint.2023.108202

Early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease in patients with diabetes in France: multidisciplinary expert opinion, prevention value and practical recommendations
This article provides an overview of critical laboratory evidence of CKD and their limitations, such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE), and serum potassium. eGFR is estimated using the CKD-EPI 2009 formula, more relevant in Europe, from the calibrated dosage of plasma creatinine. The estimation formula and the diagnostic thresholds have been the subject of recent controversies. Recent guidelines emphasized the combined equation using both creatinine and cystatin for improved estimation of GFR. UACR on a spot urine sample is a simple...

How Could Digital Technology Make An Impact On Primary Care?
I truly hope that very soon I do not have to make an appointment at the GP when I suspect signs of a disease, but my GP will send me a message that she spotted something irregular in my latest test results and my digital health data, so I’d better visit. Let me show you in detail how primary care should be carried out in the future! Digital health should become an organic part of primary care in the future I live a fairly healthy life. I use data to improve my lifestyle and to make better decisions by optimising my sleep pattern, my physical, my cognitive or my emotional abilities; and I had several genetic tests....

Mechanisms of action of incretin receptor based dual- and tri-agonists in pancreatic islets
Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1152/ajpendo.00236.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSimultaneous activation of the incretin G protein coupled receptors via unimolecular dual-receptor agonists (UDRA) has emerged as a new therapeutic approach for type 2 diabetes. Recent studies also advocate triple agonism with molecules also capable of binding the glucagon receptor. In this scoping review we discuss the cellular mechanisms of action (MOA) underlying the actions of these novel and therapeutically important classes of peptide receptor agonists. Clinical efficacy studies of several UDRAs have demonstrate...

Role of the tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) family of proteins in insulin resistance and related disorders
Diabetes Obes Metab. 2023 Sep 19. doi: 10.1111/dom.15294. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEmerging evidence suggests that the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of insulin-signalling-related proteins may be involved in the development of insulin resistance and its related disorders. Tripartite motif-containing (TRIM) proteins, a superfamily belonging to the E3 ubiquitin ligases, are capable of controlling protein levels and function by ubiquitination, which is essential for the modulation of insulin sensitivity. Recent research has indicated that some of these TRIMs act as key regulatory factors of metabolic disorders such as ty...

Effects of hypoxia in cardiac metabolic remodeling and heart failure
Exp Cell Res. 2023 Sep 17:113763. doi: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2023.113763. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAerobic cellular respiration requires oxygen, which is an essential part of cardiomyocyte metabolism. Thus, oxygen is required for the physiologic metabolic activities and development of adult hearts. However, the activities of metabolic pathways associated with hypoxia in cardiomyocytes (CMs) have not been conclusively described. In this review, we discuss the role of hypoxia in the development of the hearts metabolic system, and the metabolic remodeling associated with the hypoxic adult heart. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs...

The three-dimensional structure of insulin and its receptor
Vitam Horm. 2023;123:151-185. doi: 10.1016/bs.vh.2022.12.001. Epub 2023 Jun 5.ABSTRACTInsulin is a peptide hormone essential for maintaining normal blood glucose levels. Individuals unable to secrete sufficient insulin or not able to respond properly to insulin develop diabetes. Since the discovery of insulin its structure and function has been intensively studied with the aim to develop effective diabetes treatments. The three-dimensional crystal structure of this 51 amino acid peptide paved the way for discoveries, outlined in this review, of determinants important for receptor binding and hormone stability that have bee...
