32. (Journal Article): In vitro differentiation of embryonic stem cells.

Keller GM
 
ABSTRACT: Under appropriate conditions in culture, embryonic stem cells will differentiate and form embryoid bodies that have been shown to contain cells of the hematopoietic, endothelial, m...

Expert panel on detection, evaluation, and treatment of high blood cholesterol in adults

34. (Journal Article): Glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36 amide): a potent glucagonostatic and insulinotropic hormone.

Matsuyama T, Komatsu R, Namba M, Watanabe N, Itoh H, Tarui S
 
ABSTRACT: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) (1-37) and the fraction derived from it, GLP-1 (7-36 amide), are peptides encoded by the preproglucagon gene and possibly co-secreted with enteroglu...

35. (Journal Article): A calpain-10 gene polymorphism is associated with reduced muscle mRNA levels and insulin resistance

Baier LJ, Permana PA, Yang X, Pratley RE, Hanson RL, Shen GQ, Mott D, Knowler WC, Cox NJ, Horikawa Y, Oda N, Bell GI, Bogardus C
 
ABSTRACT: Previous linkage studies in Mexican-Americans localized a major susceptibility locus for type 2 diabetes, NIDDM1, to chromosome 2q. This evidence for linkage to type 2 diabetes was...

36. (Journal Article): Glucose homeostasis in the nonobese diabetic mouse at the prediabetic stage.

Amrani A, Durant S, Throsby M, Coulaud J, Dardenne M, Homo-Delarche F
 
ABSTRACT: Because few data were available on glucose homeostasis at the early prediabetic stage in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse, we investigated glycemia, insulinemia, and pancreatic in...

37. (Journal Article): Proteins of the bcl-2 family in apoptosis signaling: from mechanistic insights to therapeutic opportunities.

Chan SL, Yu VC
 
ABSTRACT: 1. Proteins of the Bcl-2 family are central regulators of apoptosis and are thought to act primarily on the mitochondria. 2. Members of the Bcl-2 family possess either anti-apoptot...

38. (Journal Article): IL-10-secreting regulatory T cells do not express Foxp3 but have comparable regulatory function to naturally occurring CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.

Vieira PL, Christensen JR, Minaee S, O'Neill EJ, Barrat FJ, Boonstra A, Barthlott T, Stockinger B, Wraith DC, O'Garra A
 
ABSTRACT: Regulatory T cells (T(Reg)) control immune responses to self and nonself Ags. The relationship between Ag-driven IL-10-secreting T(Reg) (IL-10-T(Reg)) and naturally occurring CD4(+...

39. (Journal Article): Homeostasis of peripheral CD4+ T cells: IL-2R alpha and IL-2 shape a population of regulatory cells that controls CD4+ T cell numbers.

Almeida AR., Legrand N, Papiernik M, Freitas A
 
ABSTRACT: We show that the lymphoid hyperplasia observed in IL-2Ralpha- and IL-2-deficient mice is due to the lack of a population of regulatory cells essential for CD4 T cell homeostasis. I...

40. (Journal Article): Treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus with DAB486-IL2, a toxin conjugate witch targets activated T-lymphocytes

Boitard C, Timsit J, Assan R, Mogenet A, Debussche X, Kaloustlan E, Attali JR, Chanson P, Chatenoud L, Woodworth T, et al.
 
ABSTRACT: Evidence point to autoreactive T-Iymphocytes in the pathogenesis of insulin-¬dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Treatment with Cyclosporin A (7.5-10 mg/kg/d) of IDDM patients ind...
