Novel homozygous leptin receptor mutation in an infant with monogenic obesity
We report the case of a 12-month-old male infant born of a non-consanguineous marriage. He presented to us with rapid weight gain from 2 months of age along with hyperphagia. Biochemistry revealed a deranged lipid profile, elevated transaminases, and markedly raised serum leptin levels. On genetic analysis, a novel mutation was detected, which was a homozygous variation In exon 12 of the LEPR gene (chr1:g.65608901G>A) that resulted in the synonymous amino acid change of lysine at codon 584 proximal to donor splice site (p.Lys584). The in silico prediction of the variant was 'damaging' by MutationTaster2. The mutation wa...

In vitro oxygen imaging of acellular and cell-loaded beta cell replacement devices
This article aims to establish the protocols and demonstrate a few examples of in vitro oxygen imaging of BAP devices using EPROI. All pO2 measurements were performed using a recently introduced 720 MHz/25 mT preclinical oxygen imager instrument, JIVA-25™. We began by performing pO2 calibration of the biomaterials used in BAPs at 25 mT magnetic field since no such data exist. We compared the EPROI pO2 measurement with a single-point probe for a few selected materials. We also performed trityl OX071 toxicity studies with fibroblasts, as well as insulin-producing cells (beta TC6, MIN6, and human islet cells). Finally, we p...

Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Pancreatic β-Cells Induces Incretin Desensitization and β-Cell Dysfunction via ATF4-Mediated PDE4D Expression
Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1152/ajpendo.00156.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPancreatic β-cell dysfunction and eventual loss are key steps in the progression of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress responses, especially those mediated by the PERK-ATF4 pathway, have been implicated in promoting these β-cell pathologies. However, the exact molecular events surrounding the role of the PERK-ATF4 pathway in β-cell dysfunction remain unknown. Here, we report our discovery that ATF4 promotes the expression of PDE4D, which disrupts β-cell function via a downregulation of cAMP s...

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...

Road map for personalized exercise medicine in T2DM
Trends Endocrinol Metab. 2023 Sep 18:S1043-2760(23)00166-2. doi: 10.1016/j.tem.2023.08.013. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe number of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rising at an alarming rate. Regular physical activity and exercise are cornerstones in the therapy of T2DM. While a one-size-fits-all approach fails to account for many between-subject differences, the use of personalized exercise medicine has the potential of optimizing health outcomes. Here, a road map for personalized exercise therapy targeted at patients with T2DM is presented. It considers secondary complications, glucose management, re...

Is low-dose naltrexone effective in chronic pain management?
J Fam Pract. 2023 Sep;72(7):320-321. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0654.ABSTRACTYES. Low-dose naltrexone is as effective as amitriptyline in the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy and has a superior safety profile (strength of recommendation [SOR], B; single randomized controlled trial [RCT]). Low-dose naltrexone significantly reduced pain by 32% in inflammatory conditions and 44% in neuropathic conditions (SOR, B; single retrospective cohort study). Doses as low as 5.4 mg were found to reduce pain in 95% of patients with fibromyalgia (SOR, B; single prospective dose-response study).PMID:37729143 | DOI:10.12788/jfp.0654

Diabetes Mellitus Drug Discovery: Insights into Targeting Feline and Human Amylin with Small Molecules
Vet Q. 2023 Sep 20:1-20. doi: 10.1080/01652176.2023.2260442. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTType 2 diabetes (T2D) is a health concern for both humans and cats, with cases rising over the past decade. Around 70% of patients from either species exhibit pancreatic aggregates of islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), a protein that proves toxic upon misfolding. These misfolded protein aggregates congregate in the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas, diminishing the capability of β-cells to produce insulin and further perpetuating disease. Our team's drug discovery program is investigating newly synthesized compounds that could dim...

Semaglutide ameliorates cognition and glucose metabolism dysfunction in the 3xTg mouse model of Alzheimer's disease via the GLP-1R/SIRT1/GLUT4 pathway
In this study, we found that SIRT1 is closely related to expression of GLP-1R in hippocampus of 3xTg mice. Therefore, we used semaglutide, a novel GLP-1R agonist currently undergoing two phase 3 clinical trials in AD patients, to observe the effect of SIRT1 after semaglutide treatment in 3XTg mice and HT22 cells, and to explore the mechanism of SIRT1 in the glucose metabolism disorders of AD. The mice were injected with semaglutide on alternate days for 30 days, followed by behavioral experiments including open field test, new object recognition test, and Y-maze. The content of glucose in the brain was also measured by usi...
