Estrogen has vascular protective effects in premenopausal women and in women younger than 60 years who are receiving hormone replacement therapy. However, estrogen also increases the risks of breast and uterine cancers and of venous thromboses linked

Plasma membrane cholesterol accumulation has been implicated in cellular insulin resistance. Given the role of the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP) as a sensor of nutrient excess, coupled to its involvement in the development of insulin resistan

We previously showed that loss of the high mobility group A1 (HMGA1) protein expression, induced in mice by disrupting the Hmga1 gene, considerably decreased insulin receptor expression in the major target tissues of insulin action, causing a type 2-

The proglucagon gene is expressed not only in the pancreas and intestine but also in the hypothalamus. Proglucagon-derived peptides have emerged as potential regulators of energy homeostasis. Whether leptin, insulin, or cAMP activation controls progl

The transcriptional transactivator Pax6 binds the pancreatic islet cell-specific enhancer sequence (PISCES) of the rat insulin I gene. However the human, mouse, and rat insulin gene II promoters do not contain a PISCES element. To analyze the role of

Pseudokinase TRB3 is an inducible gene whose expression is regulated by stress response and insulin and associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. In this report, we have investigated the mechanism under which insulin regulates TRB3 g

FSH is produced by the pituitary gonadotrope to regulate gametogenesis. Steroid hormones, including androgens, progestins, and glucocorticoids, have all been shown to stimulate expression of the FSHβ subunit in primary pituitary cells and rodent mod

Cytokines, such as IL-1beta and TNF-alpha, contribute to pancreatic beta-cell death in type 1 diabetes mellitus. The transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) mediates cytokine-induced beta-cell apoptosis. Paradoxically, NF-kappaB has mo

Mutations in the paired domain transcription factor PAX8 are a rare cause of congenital hypothyroidism due to thyroid dysgenesis. We identified a novel and unique PAX8 mutation segregating in seven affected members of a three-generations family. The
