Effect of insulin and dexamethasone on fetal assimilation of maternal glucoseAndrew W Norris
Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA
Endocrinology 152:255-62. 2011..Maternal insulin action has little effect on the inherent avidity of the fetal-placental unit for glucose but increases glucose utilization by maternal tissues, thus indirectly reducing the glucose available to the fetus...
Complications and comorbidities of type 2 diabetesAndrew W Norris
Joslin Diabetes Center, Boston, MA, USA
Pediatr Ann 34:710-8. 2005..The pediatrician should be aware of screening and interventions to lessen the effect of these risks on their patients. Societal-wide lifestyle changes are needed desperately to reduce the prevalence of these largely preventable diseases...
Analysis of gene expression in pathophysiological states: balancing false discovery and false negative ratesAndrew W Norris
Joslin Diabetes Center, Children s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02215, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:649-53. 2006..To this end, we have developed a unique, model-based procedure for the estimation of false negative rates, which allows application of BPA to real data in which changes are modest...
Endogenous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma augments fatty acid uptake in oxidative muscleAndrew W Norris
Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA
Endocrinology 149:5374-83. 2008..Thus, when PPARgamma activity in muscle is absent or reduced, there will be decreased fatty acid disposal leading to diminished energy utilization and ultimately adiposity...
Localized fetomaternal hyperglycemia: spatial and kinetic definition by positron emission tomographyJianrong Yao
Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, Iowa City, Iowa, United States of America
PLoS ONE 5:e12027. 2010..We approached this problem in the context of maternal diabetes and sought an approach to expose the developing fetus in vivo to isolated hyperglycemia in the pregnant rat...
Muscle-specific PPARgamma-deficient mice develop increased adiposity and insulin resistance but respond to thiazolidinedionesAndrew W Norris
Research Division, Joslin Diabetes Center, One Joslin Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
J Clin Invest 112:608-18. 2003..The tissue crosstalk mediating these effects is perhaps due to altered lipid metabolism in muscle...
Programming of growth, insulin resistance and vascular dysfunction in offspring of late gestation diabetic ratsEmily M Segar
Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Clin Sci (Lond) 117:129-38. 2009..Thus the development of diabetes during pregnancy programmes gender-specific insulin resistance and vascular dysfunction in adult offspring...
Evidence for a role of developmental genes in the origin of obesity and body fat distributionStephane Gesta
Joslin Diabetes Center and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02215, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 103:6676-81. 2006....
Action of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids on cellular functionArthur A Spector
Dept of Biochemistry, University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 292:C996-1012. 2007..Therefore, sEH is considered a potential therapeutic target for enhancing the beneficial functions of EETs...
Fatty acid-binding proteins inhibit hydration of epoxyeicosatrienoic acids by soluble epoxide hydrolaseRichard L Widstrom
Department of Biochemistry, University of Iowa, College of Medicine, Iowa City, Iowa 52242, USA
Biochemistry 42:11762-7. 2003..However, the effectiveness of this process may depend on metabolic conditions that regulate the levels of competing FABP ligands...
Very long chain n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids bind strongly to liver fatty acid-binding proteinAndrew W Norris
Department of Pediatrics, University of Iowa College of Medicine, Iowa City, IA 52242, USA
J Lipid Res 43:646-53. 2002....
New role of bone morphogenetic protein 7 in brown adipogenesis and energy expenditureYu Hua Tseng
Section on Obesity and Hormone Action, Joslin Diabetes Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
Nature 454:1000-4. 2008..These data reveal an important role of BMP7 in promoting brown adipocyte differentiation and thermogenesis in vivo and in vitro, and provide a potential new therapeutic approach for the treatment of obesity...
Avoiding nocturnal hypoglycemia: consideration of an extra injection at bedtimeAndrew W Norris
