Abstract

We investigated the effect of the sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT-2i) luseogliflozin on skeletal muscle. Eight-week-old mice were fed a standard diet or the standard diet with added luseogliflozin for 8 weeks. The mice were divided into the following four genotype/dietary groups: Db/m mice without SGLT-2i, Db/m mice with SGLT-2i inhibitor, Db/Db without SGLT-2i, and Db/Db with SGLT-2i. Among the mice with and without SGLT-2i, the ratio of soleus and plantaris muscle to body weight in the Db/Db mice was significantly lower than that in the Db/m mice. The cross-sectional area of soleus muscle in the Db/Db mice without SGLT-2i was significantly higher than that in the Db/Db mice with SGLT-2i. The expression of foxo1 in soleus muscle of the Db/Db mice was significantly higher than that of the Db/m mice, and the foxo1 expression of the Db/Db mice with SGLT-2i was significantly lower than that of the mice without SGLT-2i. The fluorescence intensity of foxo1 in the Db/Db mice fed SGLT-2i was significantly lower than that in the Db/Db mice without SGLT-2i. The administration of luseogliflozin resulted in the suppression of both the increased foxo1 expression and the reduced muscle cross-sectional area in the soleus muscl...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
