Introduction and Objective: Mice housed at ambient temperature (22°C) experience increased heat production to maintain core temperature, leading to higher total energy expenditure than at 30°C. In this study, we examined the metabolic effects of Survodutide, a dual glucagon/GLP-1 receptor agonist, at ambient housing temperature (30°C) to assess the impact of thermoneutrality in the polygenic […]

Introduction and Objective: Autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) often goes undiagnosed until a major clinical event triggers disease recognition. Identifying individuals in early T1D stages remains a clinical challenge given inefficient screening thus limiting opportunities for early intervention. This study aimed to develop a predictive machine learning model that identified individuals before the onset of […]

Introduction and Objective: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ras) utilize multiple mechanisms to achieve their therapeutic effects, resulting in lower blood glucose, weight loss, and improved cardiovascular and renal health (GLP-1RAs). Many of their beneficial metabolic effects occur in the postprandial state. Data from prior randomized controlled trials have linked fasting levels of the circulating proteome […]

Introduction and Objective: The T1D Exchange Quality Improvement Collaborative (T1DX-QI), a network of diabetes centers, conducts an annual survey to assess patient demographics, clinic staffing, and learn about centers’ improvement efforts to care for people living with type 1 and type 2 diabetes (PwT1D and PwT2D) and their families.Methods: The annual T1DX-QI survey was administered […]

Introduction and Objective: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a worldwide health issue impacting millions of individuals. In recent years, bone has been identified as an endocrine organ that regulates glucose metabolism by the release of osteocalcin, an osteoblast-specific hormone, which affects fat accumulation and blood glucose levels. Osteocalcin has been associated with insulin sensitivity […]

Introduction and Objective: The choroid plexus (ChP), located in each ventricle of the brain, is recognized as a potential site for leptin transport via short- and long-form leptin receptor (LepR). However, knowledge of how LepR in the ChP regulates leptin transport and energy metabolism remains limited. We investigated the role of LepR in Foxj1-expressing ChP […]

Introduction and Objective: Vascular inflexibility, impairments in vascular perfusion in the setting of metabolic demand, associated with T2D may contribute to the muscle mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic inflexibility. Oxidative flux in response to ATP demand is dependent on the intrinsic properties of the skeletal muscle mitochondria, insulin action, and perfusion for the delivery of oxygen […]

Introduction and Objective: Stressful and traumatic life events and chronic stress are associated with rising rates of obesity, yet research in this area is limited. In this analysis we examine the impact of stressful and traumatic events and chronic stress on food choices in an experimental Food Snack Test (FST) under acute stress-, neutral- and […]

Introduction and Objective: Long-term low-protein diets (LPD) have been shown to improve metabolic health and extend lifespan in mice, with potential relevance to humans. However, most studies focus on preventive effects, leaving their therapeutic potential for existing metabolic dysfunction underexplored. Previously, we showed that LPD (5.1% kcal from protein) significantly improved postprandial blood glucose (BG) […]

Introduction and Objective: DJBL is a novel endoscopic duodenal jejunal liner device for obesity, both with and without diabetes. We aimed to assess risks vs benefits of DJBL.Methods: In 2017 an independent online registry was established by the Association of British Clinical Diabetologists, to collect of safety and efficacy data worldwide.Results: As of January 2025, […]
