Not exact matches

In collaboration with the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW) in Dallas, the researchers found that the tumor - suppressive activity of geranylgeraniol was accompanied by down - regulation of HMG CoA reductase, a key enzyme in the mevalonate pathway that provides essential intermediates for the posttranslational modification of growth - related proteins such as Ras, nuclear lamins and insulin - like growth factor receptors.

A sustained modest weight - loss of five to 10 % body - weight is associated with improvements in various indices of cardiometabolic health including but not limited to insulin sensitivity, vascular function, blood pressure and lipid levels.3 These beneficial effects of weight - loss can be partially explained by accompanying reductions in adipose tissue mass and dysfunction.5 There is however, some evidence to suggest that energy restriction (ER) alone can confer metabolic changes which are independent to those of weight - loss, by facilitating an acute negative energy balance 6 - 9 and / or by activating adaptive stress response pathways.10

Looking at the accompanying charts, you can see that insulin resistance (measured here by maximal glucose uptake) develops over time.

When blood sugars plummet dramatically — as they always do after the insulin surge that accompanies high - carb eating — cortisol will rush to save the brain from «starvation» by sending a signal to convert amino and fatty acids into glucose (the brain's primary fuel).

A fat - rich diet can increase fat in the blood, and this increase is accompanied by a decrease in insulin sensitivity.

By the end of the study, their calcium levels increased and this was accompanied by an improvement in insulin sensitivitBy the end of the study, their calcium levels increased and this was accompanied by an improvement in insulin sensitivitby an improvement in insulin sensitivity.

In conclusion, the findings of the present study suggest that 16 weeks of strength training results in improved muscle quality, skeletal muscle fiber hypertrophy, accompanied by concomitant changes in biochemical markers known that contribute to whole - body insulin sensitivity; namely, reduced HOMA - IR, increased adiponectin levels and decreased FFA and CRP levels.

This unfavorable effect on glucose tolerance in women, accompanied by an apparent lack of an effect on insulin sensitivity, suggests that short - term ADF may be more beneficial in men than in women in reducing type 2 diabetes risk.»

Furthermore, high blood levels of insulin can act by increasing androgenous hormonal stimulation of the ovarian theca cells as well as potentiating gonadotropin - stimulated ovarian androgen steroidogenesis — although recent data has suggested that the insulin - induced increase in ovarian hormone secretion is not accompanied by increased steroid metabolism.74 Hyperinsulinaemia may also affect the central actions of androgen by impairing progesterone inhibition of the gonadotropin - releasing hormone pulse generator.75 Insulin has also been shown to increase expression of adrenal steroidogenic enzyme mRNA47 as well as adrenal responsiveness to adrenocorticotropic horinsulin can act by increasing androgenous hormonal stimulation of the ovarian theca cells as well as potentiating gonadotropin - stimulated ovarian androgen steroidogenesis — although recent data has suggested that the insulin - induced increase in ovarian hormone secretion is not accompanied by increased steroid metabolism.74 Hyperinsulinaemia may also affect the central actions of androgen by impairing progesterone inhibition of the gonadotropin - releasing hormone pulse generator.75 Insulin has also been shown to increase expression of adrenal steroidogenic enzyme mRNA47 as well as adrenal responsiveness to adrenocorticotropic horinsulin - induced increase in ovarian hormone secretion is not accompanied by increased steroid metabolism.74 Hyperinsulinaemia may also affect the central actions of androgen by impairing progesterone inhibition of the gonadotropin - releasing hormone pulse generator.75 Insulin has also been shown to increase expression of adrenal steroidogenic enzyme mRNA47 as well as adrenal responsiveness to adrenocorticotropic horInsulin has also been shown to increase expression of adrenal steroidogenic enzyme mRNA47 as well as adrenal responsiveness to adrenocorticotropic hormone.76

Any professor of endocrinology must agree that increases in bloodstream glucose must be accompanied by increased production of insulin, and that long - term elevated insulin levels are undesirable.

While plasma glucose, insulin, and carbohydrate oxidation did not change significantly, plasma free fatty acid levels rose from 432 ± 31 to 848 ± 135 µEq / liter and were accompanied by significant increases in fat oxidation during the last hour of the test.

Importantly, this channeling of the glucose surge was not accompanied by any increase in insulin levels, nor did it push fasting glucose levels down into hypoglycemia».

The increase in brown fat following a month of cold exposure was accompanied by improved insulin sensitivity after a meal during which volunteers were exposed to mild cold.

Low insulin levels accompanied by high blood glucose levels are also indicative of diabetes mellitus.
