Abstract
The globally prevalent of sleep disorders is partly attributed to unhealthy dietary habits. This study investigated the underlying mechanisms of elevated palmitic acid (PA) intake on locomotor activity and sleep behavior in Drosophila. Our results indicate that exposure to PA significantly elevated Drosophila's daytime and nighttime locomotor activity while concurrently reducing overall sleep duration. Utilizing 16S rRNA sequencing, we observed substantial alterations in the composition of the gut microbiota induced by PA, notably, characterized by a significant reduction in Lactobacillus plantarum. Furthermore, PA significantly increased the levels of inflammatory factors Upd3 and Eiger in Drosophila intestines, and downregulated the expression of Gad and Tph, as well as 5-HT1A. Conversely, Gdh and Hdc were significantly upregulated in the PA group. Supplementation with L. plantarum or lactic acid significantly ameliorated PA-induced disruptions in both locomotor activity and sleep behavior. This supplementation also suppressed the expression of intestinal inflammatory factors, thus restoring impaired neurotransmitter-mediated sleep-wake regulation. Moreover, specific knockdown of intestinal epithelial Upd3 or Eiger similarly restored disrupted neurotransmitter expression, ultimately improving PA-induced disturbances in Drosophila locomotor activity and sleep behavior. These findings provide important insights into the intricate interplay between dietary components and essential behaviors, highlighting potential avenues for addressing health challenges associated with modern dietary habits.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate p16 effects on diffusion image metrics and associations with tumor progression in patients with locally advanced head and neck cancers. Methods Diffusion images pretreatment and after 20 Gy (2wk) of RT were analyzed in patients with cT4/N3 p16+ oropharynx cancer (OPSCC) (N=51) and locoregionally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LAHNSCC) (N=28), enrolled onto a prospective adaptive RT trial. Mean ADC values, subvolumes with ADC <1.2 um2/ms (TVLADC), and peak values of low (µL) and high (µH) components of ADC histograms in primary and total nodal gross tumor volumes were analyzed for prediction of freedom from local, distant, or any progression (FFLP, FFDP or FFLRDP) using multivariate Cox proportional-hazards model with clinical factors. P value with false discovery control <0.05 was considered as significant. Results With a mean follow up of 36 months, 18 of LAHNSCC patients and 16 of p16+ OPSCC patients had progression. After adjusting for p16, small µL and ADC values, and large TVLADC of primary tumors pre-RT were significantly associated with superior FFLRDP, FFLP and FFDP in the LAHNSCC (p<0.05), but no diffusion metrics were significant in p16+ oropharynx cancers. Post ad hoc analysis of the p16+ OPSCC only showed that large TVLADC of the total nodal burden pre-RT was significantly associated with inferior FFDP (p=0.05). Conclusion ADC metrics were associated with different progression patterns in the LAHNSCC and p16+ OPSCC, possibly explained by differences in cancer biology and morphology. A deep understanding of ADC metrics is warranted to establish imaging biomarkers for adaptive RT in HNSCC.

Abstract
We present a study on molecular-frame photoelectron angular distributions (MFPADs) of small molecules using circularly polarized synchrotron light. We find that the main forward-scattering peaks of the MFPADs are slightly tilted with respect to the molecular axis. This tilt angle is directly connected to the molecular bond length by a simple, universal formula. We apply the derived formula to several examples of MFPADs of C 1s and O 1s photoelectrons of CO, which have been measured experimentally or obtained by means of ab initio modeling. In addition, we discuss the influence of the back-scattering contribution that is superimposed over the analyzed forward-scattering peak in the case of homo-nuclear diatomic molecules such as N2.

Abstract
Immediate implant placement has the advantages of shortening the operation time, reducing the treatment cycle and cost. At present, this technology has been used widely, but the indications of immediate implantation are still limited. Here, a novel type of root analog implant (RAI) was manufactured by selective laser melting technology to address the limitation. Under optimized condition, RAIs were printed with the internal density of 99.73% and the uniform surface roughness of 11 μm (Sa). Besides, the deviation between RAI specimen and design models is controlled within 0.15 mm after optimizing scanning parameters. The substrate printed could promote human bone marrow stromal cell proliferation, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation. The bone-implant contact (BIC, 75% ± 7%) and bone volume/total volume (BV/TV, 74% ± 7%) of RAIs were significantly higher than that of conventional implants (BIC, 66% ± 5%; BV/TV, 62% ± 5%) in in vivo experiments. Further, customized abutments were designed for the RAIs, improving the masticatory ability of the beagle dogs after crown restoration. This study aims to design a personalized 2-stage RAI with compact structure and uniform roughness, in order to achieve better fracture resistance, initial osseointegration efficiency, and dispersed stress in immediate implantation. It provides a certain guiding value for standardizing the manufacture and clinical application of RAI in immediate implantation.

Abstract
There is an increasing interest in the use of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) for biomedical applications. Herein, we have developed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) decorated PEEK with gelatin (GEL) nanocomposite hydrogel with enhanced antibacterial and biocompatibility through the blending method. The prepared highly porous PEEK/GEL/AgNPs nanocomposite hydrogel was characterized using SEM, TEM, FT-IR, and XRD analysis. The SEM image showed that AgNPs were encapsulated in the porous PEEK/GEL hydrogel; within this porous hydrogel, the AgNPs were homogeneously dispersed. Furthermore, the tensile strength, flexural strength, and Young's modulus were 99 ± 2.4 MPa, 154 ± 7.7 MPa, and 2.3 ± 0.1 GPa, respectively, when AgNPs were added to PEEK/GEL hydrogels exhibited the mechanical performances. The antibacterial assays demonstrate that the AgNPs-decorated PEEK/GEL nanocomposite hydrogel effectively inhibits the antibacterial effect against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria, respectively. Then MC3T3-E1 cells were demonstrated the AgNPs-decorated PEEK/GEL nanocomposite hydrogel was significantly enhanced cell viability and superior alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity compared with PEEK/GEL hydrogel. This work opens a new avenue of the facile and effective modification of PEEK/GEL/AgNPs nanocomposite hydrogel has increased in vitro antibacterial and biocompatibility properties has great potential to be used as biomedical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long non-coding ribonucleic acids X-inactive specific transcript (lncRNA XIST) is one lncRNAs which involved in multiple human cancers. However, the functions and potential molecular regulatory mechanisms of XIST/microRNA-137 (miR‑137) in pancreatic cancer (PC) still need to explore. PATIENTS AND METHODS PC tissues and cell lines were analyzed for XIST, miR-137 and Notch1 expressions through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Nude mouse xenograft tumor assay was used to detect XIST effects on pancreatic tumorigenesis in vivo. Cell Counting Kit (CCK-8) assay was performed to detect PC cell proliferation. Dual-Luciferase reporter assay, qRT-PCR, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and Western blot assays were applied to validate the target relationship of XIST, miR‑137 and Notch1. RESULTS Results demonstrated that XIST expression was increased in PC tissues and cells. XIST knockdown inhibited PC cell proliferation in vitro and also repressed the tumor growth in vivo. XIST directly interacted with miR-137 and negatively regulated its expression. Notch1 was identified as a target gene of miR-137 and XIST acted as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to positively regulate Notch1 expression by suppressing miR-137. In addition, we detected miR-137 was negatively correlated with XIST and Notch1 respectively, and a positive correlation between Notch1 and XIST expression in PC tissues. Furthermore, Notch1 overexpression could offset the suppressing effect of XIST knockdown or miR-137 overexpression on cell proliferation. Therefore, XIST may play an important role in promoting cell proliferation through miR‑137 and Notch1 pathway in PC. CONCLUSIONS To sum up, these results proposed that XIST functioned as an endogenous sponge in promoting PC cell proliferation through competing for miR-137 to regulate Notch1 expression, and may provide more therapeutic targets for the patients with PC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Long intergenic non-protein coding RNA 518 (LINC00518) was reported to be implicated and aberrantly expressed in multiple cancers. However, the pathogenic implications of LINC00518 in cervical cancer (CC) are still unclear. In this study, we focused on LINC00518 and investigated its expression pattern, clinical significance, and biological function in CC. PATIENTS AND METHODS The expression levels of LINC00518 in CC tissues and cell lines were determined by quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR), and its clinical significance was assessed by statistical analysis. Cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. The cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT assay and colony forming assay, and the migration and invasion were evaluated by wound healing assays and transwell assay. Western blot was used to detect the expression of relative proteins, including EMT markers and the JAK/STAT3 signaling markers. RESULTS We found that LINC00518 was upregulated in CC tissues and associated with International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, lymph node metastasis, depth of cervical invasion and poor survival of CC patients. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that LINC00518 played a significant role of independent prognostic markers in overall survival rates. Furthermore, knocking down LINC00518 expression significantly suppressed CC cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and induced apoptosis in vitro. Mechanistically, the downregulation of LINC00518 suppressed JAK/STAT3 activation and subsequently decreased N-Cadherin and Vimentin. CONCLUSIONS The present work first suggests that LINC00518 acts as an oncogene in CC via regulation of the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway. In the future, LINC00518 may serve as a predictive biomarker and potential therapeutic target for CC patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Chronic pain and insomnia are highly comorbid, and CBT is a recommended treatment for both. CBT protocols that treat these conditions together, however, show improvements in sleep but not pain. As mindfulness, an acceptance-based approach, has been used successfully to treat chronic pain, integrating mindfulness into a combined CBT treatment protocol may help improve outcomes for chronic pain as well as insomnia.
Methods
An integrated CBT/Mindfulness weekly 6-session group protocol for chronic pain and insomnia was developed and piloted. Treatment components included education about pain neuroscience as well as sleep and circadian biology, relaxation, time-based pacing, tracking 24-hour time in bed, sleep compression, stimulus control, cognitive reframing, and mindfulness. Pre-post measures evaluating insomnia symptoms, sleep hygiene, pain acceptance, pain catastrophizing, and unhelpful beliefs about sleep and pain were analyzed using frequency analyses and paired sample t-tests.
Results
Two groups were completed for a total of 16 participants, 94% of whom attended at least 5 sessions. Average age was 56 years, 75% of the sample was female, 88% were White, 6% Asian, and 6% Latino. Post-treatment outcomes showed significant improvement in insomnia symptoms (ISI Mdiff=6.6, SDdiff=5.3, p=.01, ES=1.2), sleep hygiene (SHI Mdiff=3.8, SDdiff=4.6, p=.02, ES=.83), pain acceptance (CPAQ Mdiff=5.2, SDdiff=7.8, p=.03, ES=.67), pain catastrophizing (PCS Mdiff=5.1, SDdiff=7.5, p=.03, ES=.68), and unhelpful beliefs about sleep (DBAS Mdiff=31.4, SDdiff=21.2, p=.009, ES=1.5) and pain (PBAS Mdiff=11.6, SDdiff=10.7, p=.02, ES=1.1).
Conclusion
An integrated CBT/Mindfulness group protocol for chronic pain and insomnia showed significant improvements in post-treatment sleep and pain measures. As previous combined CBT-only protocols showed pre-post improvement in sleep but not pain, the current study demonstrates that including mindfulness might improve outcomes for chronic pain. Future studies should compare CBT protocols for chronic pain and insomnia with and without mindfulness to determine the clinical benefits of including an acceptance-based component.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effects of bone regeneration materials and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) timing on tooth movement through alveolar bone defects treated with guided bone regeneration (GBR) utilizing xenografts (Bio-Oss) and alloplast (β-TCP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-four standard alveolar bone defects in six male beagle dogs were treated by GBR using either Bio-Oss or β-TCP (experimental), whereas the control defects were left empty. The defects were further grouped into early or late subgroups, depending on OTM timing after GBR (ie 1 month or 2 months, respectively). Rates of OTM were measured intraorally, while computed tomography scan images were used to assess bone density, alveolar bone height, second premolar displacement, and tipping tendency. RESULTS Generally, the Bio-Oss early and Bio-Oss late subgroups recorded the lowest amount of tooth movement compared with other modes of GBRs assessed. Before OTM, the control group registered significantly lower bone height compared with the Bio-Oss and β-TCP groups ( P < .01). The control group was inferior on bone density and bone height compared with Bio-Oss and β-TCP. CONCLUSIONS The Bio-Oss group had favorable radiologic features (higher alveolar bone level and bone density with less premolar tipping) but showed slower OTM than the control group. The late OTM subgroup had favorable radiologic features and showed faster tooth movement than the early OTM in the β -TCP group.

Abstract
A kriging modeling method is proposed to conduct the temperature uncertainty analysis of an injection mechanism in squeeze casting. A mathematical model of temperature prediction with multi input and single output is employed to estimate the temperature spatiotemporal distributions of the injection mechanism. The kriging model applies different weights to the independent variables according to spatial location of sample points and their correlation, thus reducing the estimation variance. The predicted value of the kriging model is compared with the sample data at the corresponding position to investigate the influence of the temperature uncertainty of the injection mechanism on the injection process including friction. The results indicate that the significant error is observed at a few sample points in the early injection due to the impact of the uncertainty facts. The variance mean and standard deviation obtained by the model calibrated by experimental samples reduce largely in comparison to those obtained from the initial kriging model. This study indicates that model calibration produces more accurate prediction.

Abstract
Background Surface characters of culture plates affect cellular behaviors such as cellular alignment and elongation. Microgrooves guide the cell growth along the grooves and spread. The aim of this study was to observe the effect of fibronectin (FN)-coated micro-grooved titanium plates on the alignment, spread, adhesion, and proliferation of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs). Material/Methods Micro-grooved titanium plates were fabricated, and FN was immobilized onto the micro-grooved surfaces using silanization. HGFs were cultured on the smoothed or micro-grooved (with 35 μm width, 15 μm bridge, 10 μm depth) titanium plates, with or without the FN coating. We assessed the water contact angle and blood compatibility of the surfaces, and the earlier adhesion, adhesion strength, proliferation and morphology of the cells growing on the different titanium surfaces. Results The results revealed that the blood hemolysis rates of different titanium surfaces were within the safety limits. HGFs aligned along the grooves, spread out more evidently, and showed significantly more adhesion in the FN-coated micro-grooved surface compared with other surfaces (p<0.05). Conclusions The micro-grooved surface coated with FN guides the HGFs to align along the grooves, and promotes cell spread, adhesion and proliferation, which might be used to improve the efficacy of dental implants.

Abstract
Inner-shell ionization of an isolated atom typically leads to Auger decay. In an environment, for example, a liquid or a van der Waals bonded system, this process will be modified, and becomes part of a complex cascade of relaxation steps. Understanding these steps is important, as they determine the production of slow electrons and singly charged radicals, the most abundant products in radiation chemistry. In this communication, we present experimental evidence for a so-far unobserved, but potentially very important step in such relaxation cascades: Multiply charged ionic states after Auger decay may partially be neutralized by electron transfer, simultaneously evoking the creation of a low-energy free electron (electron transfer-mediated decay). This process is effective even after Auger decay into the dicationic ground state. In our experiment, we observe the decay of Ne2+ produced after Ne 1s photoionization in Ne-Kr mixed clusters.

Abstract
Background: Pemetrexed has shown a favourable response rate of about 30% with minimal toxicity when used as a single agent for treatment of advanced urothelial carcinoma. This phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed plus cisplatin in advanced urothelial carcinoma. Methods: This multicentre, single-arm, open-label, phase II clinical trial enrolled patients who had advanced urothelial carcinoma, ECOG PS 0–2, and measurable disease. Pemetrexed 500 mg m−2 with cisplatin 70 mg m−2 on day 1 were administered every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and toxicity. Results: A total of 42 patients were enrolled (median age, 66 years; ECOG 0–1, 100% visceral metastasis, 54.8% recurrent disease, 57.1%). Twenty-seven partial responses for an ORR of 64.3% (95% CI, 49.2%–77.0%) were documented. Seven patients had stable disease. Median PFS and OS were 6.9 (95% CI, 6.2–7.6) and 14.4 (95% CI, 10.4–18.4) months, respectively. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was observed in 28.6% of patients. No patients experienced febrile neutropenia. Conclusion: The combination of pemetrexed and cisplatin is active, and well tolerated in patients with advanced urothelial cancer as a first-line treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying therapeutic drugs that block the release or effects of T-helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines after allergen exposure is an important goal for the treatment of allergic inflammatory diseases including asthma. We recently showed, using a murine model of allergic airway inflammation, that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of asthma-related lung inflammation. PARP inhibition, by single injection of a novel inhibitor, thieno[2,3-c]isoquinolin-5-one (TIQ-A), before ovalbumin (OVA) challenge, prevented airway eosinophilia in C57BL/6 mice with concomitant suppression of Th2 cytokine production and mucus secretion. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of the drug when it is given after OVA challenge for its possible therapeutic potential. METHODS This study was conducted using a murine model of allergic airway inflammation. RESULTS A single injection of TIQ-A (6 mg/kg) one or 6 h post-allergen challenge conferred similar reduction in OVA challenge-induced eosinophilia. More significantly, post-allergen challenge administration of the drug exerted even better suppression on the production of IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and IgE and prevented airway hyperresponsiveness to inhaled-methacholine. The significant decrease in IL-13 was accompanied by a complete absence of airways mucus production indicating a potential protection against allergen-induced airway remodelling. CONCLUSION The coincidence of the inflammation trigger and the time of drug administration appear to be important for the drug's more pronounced protection. The observed time window for efficacy, 1 or 6 h after allergen challenge may be of great clinical interest. These findings may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of allergic airway inflammation, including asthma.

Abstract
The focus of this study was to develop retinoic acid receptor (RAR) RAR alpha/beta selective agonists with anticancer efficacy and reduced toxicity associated with RAR gamma activity. In these studies, we report the identification and characterization of high-affinity RAR alpha/beta selective agonists with limited RAR gamma activity. These compounds inhibited human tumor cell line proliferation with similar efficacy to that observed for a pan-RAR agonist. However, for most tumor cell lines, the efficacy of these compounds was restricted to the micromolar range. To determine whether the RAR alpha/beta selective agonists could be additive or synergistic with existing agents, we investigated the effects of combining RAR alpha/beta selective agonists with various cytotoxic agents. Our results showed that the alpha/beta selective retinoids dramatically lowered the effective dose of Taxol needed to induce cytotoxicity of a wide range of tumor cell lines. This synergy was specific to tubulin-modifying agents and could not be observed with a variety of other cytotoxic agents of diverse function. Examination of pathways common to Taxol and retinoid signaling revealed that this synergy was related in part to effects on Bcl-2 expression/phosphorylation as well as the activity of the c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase and activator protein-1. In contrast, the tubulin polymerization induced by Taxol was not further affected by cotreatment with a variety of retinoid receptor ligands. These observations indicate that potent RAR alpha/beta selective agonists may be of therapeutic benefit in combination with Taxol therapy.

Abstract
A novel strategy for design of haptens that were used to produce catalytic antibodies was developed and three monoclonal antibodies, 3G5, 2F3, and 5C9, were generated using this strategy. These monoclonal antibodies were converted into selenium-containing abzymes by chemically modifying the hydroxyl group of serines followed by sodium hydrogen selenide displacement. These selenium-containing abzymes exhibited remarkable glutathione peroxidase activity, which surpasses the activity of some native glutathione peroxidases. The activities of the selenium-containing abzymes Se-3G5, Se-2F3, and Se-5C9 which catalyzed reduction of hydroperoxides by glutathione were 2.23, 4.20, and 3.79 times that of rabbit liver glutathione peroxidase, respectively. Detailed steady-state kinetics study on Se-2F3 was carried out and the value of k(cat)/K(m) (H(2)O(2)) was found to be 2.11 x 10(7) M(-1) min(-1) which was supposed to be one of the highest among the known catalytic antibodies. The data of association constants and glutathione peroxidase activities of these catalytic antibodies and the steady-state kinetics of Se-2F3 showed that the method might be a remarkably efficient one for generating catalytic antibodies with glutathione peroxidase activity.

Abstract
Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) has a powerful role in scavenging reactive oxygen species. In previous papers we have developed a new strategy for generating abzymes: the monoclonal antibody with a substrate-binding site is first prepared, then a catalytic group is incorporated into the monoclonal antibody's binding site by using chemical mutation [Luo, Zhu, Ding, Gao, Sun, Liu, Yang and Shen (1994) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 198, 1240-1247; Ding, Liu, Zhu, Luo, Zhao and Ni (1998) Biochem. J. 332, 251-255]. Since then we have established a series of catalytic antibodies capable of catalysing the decomposition of hydroperoxides by GSH. The monoclonal antibody 2F3 was raised against GSH-S-2,4-dinitrophenyl t-butyl ester and exhibited high catalytic efficiency, exceeding that of rabbit liver GPX, after chemical mutation. To produce pharmaceutical proteins and to study the reason why it exhibits high catalytic efficiency, we sequenced, cloned and expressed the variable regions of 2F3 antibody as a single-chain Fv fragment (2F3-scFv) in different bacterial strains. The amounts of 2F3-scFv proteins expressed from JM109 (DE3), BL21 (DE3), and BL21 (coden plus) were 5-10%, 15-20% and 25-30% of total bacterial proteins respectively. The 2F3-scFv was expressed as inclusion bodies, purified in the presence of 8 M urea by Co(2+)-immobilized metal-affinity chromatography (IMAC) and renatured to the active form in vitro by gel filtration. The binding constants of the active 2F3-scFv for GSH and GSSG were 2.46 x 10(5) M(-1) and 1.03 x 10(5) M(-1) respectively, which were less by one order of magnitude than that of the intact 2F3 antibody. The active 2F3-scFv was converted into selenium-containing 2F3-scFv (Se-2F3-scFv) by chemical modification of the reactive serine; the GPX activity of the Se-2F3-scFv was 3394 units/micromol, which approaches the activity of rabbit liver GPX.

Abstract
Many diseases are associated with the overproduction of hydroperoxides that inflict cell damage. A novel cyclodextrin derivative, 6A,6B-diseleninic acid-6A',6B'-selenium bridged beta-cyclodextrin (6-diSeCD), was synthesized to be a functional mimic of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) that normally removes these hydroperoxides. The mimic had high catalytic GPX activity of 13.5 U/micromol, which is 13.6-fold higher than ebselen (PZ51), and was chemically and biologically stable in vitro. Antioxidant activity was studied by ferrous sulfate/ascorbate-induced mitochondria damage model system. These data show that the mimic has great antioxidant activity. Such mimics may result in better clinical therapies for diseases mediated by hydroperoxides.

Abstract
The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP; encoded by the gene WAS) and its homologs are important regulators of the actin cytoskeleton, mediating communication between Rho-family GTPases and the actin nucleation/crosslinking factor, the Arp2/3 complex. Many WAS mutations impair cytoskeletal control in hematopoietic tissues, resulting in functional and developmental defects that define the X-linked Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) and the related X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT). These diseases seem to result from reduced WASP signaling, often through decreased transcription or translation of the gene. Here we describe a new disease, X-linked severe congenital neutropenia (XLN), caused by a novel L270P mutation in the region of WAS encoding the conserved GTPase binding domain (GBD). In vitro, the mutant protein is constitutively activated through disruption of an autoinhibitory domain in the wild-type protein, indicating that loss of WASP autoinhibition is a key event in XLN. Our findings highlight the importance of precise regulation of WASP in hematopoietic development and function, as impairment versus enhancement of its activity give rise to distinct spectra of cellular defects and clinical phenotypes.

Abstract
To determine the importance of insulin for glucose disposal during an intravenous glucose tolerance test in rats, experiments were performed in four cohorts of conscious unrestrained rats fasted overnight. In cohorts 1-3, a bolus of tracer ([3-3H]glucose, 50 microCi) was given alone, with glucose (0.3 g/kg) to induce an endogenous insulin response (approximately 1,100 pmol/l), or with exogenous insulin to give physiological (1,700 pmol/l) or supraphysiological (12,000 pmol/l) plasma levels. Raising plasma insulin within the physiological range had no effect (P > 0.05), but supraphysiological levels induced hypoglycemia (7.3 +/- 0.2 to 3.6 +/- 0.2 mmol/l) and increased [3H]glucose disappearance rate (P < 0.001). In cohort 4, a primed, continuous tracer infusion was started 120 min before saline or glucose bolus injection. [3H]glucose levels fell 15-20%, and the disappearance rate rose 36% (P < 0.05) after glucose injection. These results indicate that in fasted rats a tracer bolus injection protocol is not sufficiently sensitive to measure the physiological effect of insulin released in response to a bolus of glucose because this effect of insulin is small. Glucose itself is the predominant mediator of glucose disposal after a bolus of glucose in the fasted rat.
