Cell Metabolism, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 34(1), С. 59 - 74.e10

Опубликована: Дек. 20, 2021

Unimolecular triple incretins, combining the activity of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), and glucagon (GCG), have demonstrated reduction in body weight improved glucose control rodent models. We developed SAR441255, a synthetic peptide agonist GLP-1, GCG, GIP receptors, structurally based on exendin-4 sequence. SAR441255 displays high potency with balanced activation all three target receptors. In animal models, metabolic outcomes were superior to results dual GLP-1/GCG receptor agonist. Preclinical vivo positron emission tomography imaging binding GLP-1 GCG healthy subjects, glycemic during mixed-meal tolerance test impacted biomarkers for activation. Single doses well tolerated. The demonstrate that integrating into agonism provides effects loss while buffering diabetogenic risk chronic agonism.

Animal research is considered a key element in advance of biomedical science. Although its use controversial and raises ethical challenges, the contribution animal models medicine essential for understanding physiopathology novel treatment alternatives several human diseases. Current pandemics’ pathology, such as 2019 Coronavirus disease, has been studied primate, rodent, porcine to recognize infection routes develop therapeutic protocols. Worldwide issues diabetes, obesity, neurological disorders, pain, rehabilitation medicine, surgical techniques require studying process different species before testing them on humans. Due their relevance, this article aims discuss importance diverse lines by analyzing contributions various utilized science over past five years about topics concerning health.

Activation of osteoblast ferroptosis via the METTL3/ASK1‐p38 signaling pathway in high glucose and high fat (HGHF)‐induced diabetic bone loss

The FASEB Journal, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 36(3)

Опубликована: Фев. 1, 2022

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoporosis are two common diseases that may develop as a cause-and-effect relationship since the incidence of osteoporotic fractures is significantly increased in DM patients. However, pathophysiology diabetic yet to be clearly understood. Iron overload has been reported lead bone loss closely related osteoporosis. In this study, we hypothesized high glucose fat (HGHF) induce osteoblastic ferroptosis for pathogenesis explored possible molecular mechanisms behind. Using rat model established by HGHF feeding with subsequent intraperitoneal injection single low dose streptozocin, found serum ferritin level (a biomarker body iron store) was elevated HGHF-fed rats expression SLC7A11 GPX4 (inhibitory marker proteins ferroptosis) markedly attenuated tissue compared normal rats. an osteoblast cell model, treatment pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells palmitic acid (HGPA) not only suppressed differentiation mineralization but also triggered ferroptosis-related death. m6A-seq revealed m6A methylation on ASK1 80.9-fold higher HGPA-treated cells. The p-ASK1 p-p38 Knockout METTL3 (methyltransferase-like 3), one major methyltransferases, abrogated HGPA-induced activation ASK1-p38 signaling pathway ferroptosis. Therefore, HGHF-induced osteoblasts main cause via METTL3/ASK1-p38 pathway, inhibition provide potential therapeutic strategy

The physiological control of eating: signals, neurons, and networks

Physiological Reviews, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 102(2), С. 689 - 813

During the past 30 yr, investigating physiology of eating behaviors has generated a truly vast literature. This is fueled in part by dramatic increase obesity and its comorbidities that coincided with an ever increasing sophistication genetically based manipulations. These techniques have produced results remarkable degree cell specificity, particularly at signaling level, played lead role advancing field. However, putting these findings into brain-wide context connects physiological signals neurons to behavior somatic requires thorough consideration neuronal connections: field also seen extraordinary technological revolution. Our goal present comprehensive balanced assessment how associated energy homeostasis interact many brain levels control behaviors. A major theme engage sets interacting neural networks throughout are defined specific connections. We begin discussing some fundamental concepts, including ones still engender vigorous debate, provide necessary frameworks for understanding controls meal initiation termination. include key word definitions, ATP availability as pivotal regulated variable homeostasis, neuropeptide signaling, homeostatic hedonic eating, structure. Within this context, we discuss network models regions endbrain (or telencephalon), hypothalamus, hindbrain, medulla, vagus nerve, spinal cord work together gastrointestinal tract enable complex motor events permit animals eat diverse situations.

Streptozotocin as a tool for induction of rat models of diabetes: a practical guide.

PubMed, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 22, С. 274 - 294

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2023

Streptozotocin (STZ) is the most used diabetogenic chemical for creating rat models of type 1 and 2 diabetes. Despite ~60 years using STZ in animal diabetes research, some prevailing views about preparation use are not supported by evidence. Here, we provide practical guides to induce rats. Susceptibility effect inversely related age, males more susceptible than females. Wistar Sprague-Dawley rats, commonly-used strains, sensitive STZ, but strains (e.g., Wistar-Kyoto rats) less sensitive. mostly injected intravenously or intraperitoneally, its intravenous injection produces stable hyperglycemia. view, no fasting necessary before injection, anomer-equilibrated solutions (i.e., hours dissolving) recommended. Mortality following doses due severe hypoglycemia (during first 24 h) hyperglycemia (24 h after onwards). Some measures prevent hypoglycemia-related mortality rats include providing access food soon administration glucose/sucrose during 24-48 fed animals, STZ. Hyperglycemia-related high can be overcome with insulin administration. In conclusion, a valuable inducing should considered perform well-conducted ethical studies.

Bioinspired drug-delivery system emulating the natural bone healing cascade for diabetic periodontal bone regeneration

Bioactive Materials, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 21, С. 324 - 339

Опубликована: Сен. 14, 2022

Diabetes mellitus (DM) aggravates periodontitis, resulting in accelerated periodontal bone resorption. Disordered glucose metabolism DM causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction compromised healing, which makes diabetic regeneration a major challenge. Inspired by the natural healing cascade, mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN)-incorporated PDLLA (poly(dl-lactide))-PEG-PDLLA (PPP) thermosensitive hydrogel with stepwise cargo release is designed to emulate mesenchymal stem cell "recruitment-osteogenesis" cascade for regeneration. During therapy, SDF-1 quickly escapes from due diffusion early rat marrow (rBMSC) recruitment. Simultaneously, slow degradation of starts gradually expose MSNs sustained metformin, can scavenge overproduced ROS under high conditions reverse inhibited osteogenesis rBMSCs reactivating AMPK/β-catenin pathway, regulation microenvironment and facilitation osteogenesis. In vitro experiments indicate that markedly restores migration osteogenic capacities conditions. vivo results suggest it effectively recruit defect significantly promote type 2 DM. conclusion, our work provides novel therapeutic strategy bioinspired drug-delivery system emulating
