Serum bicarbonate, anion gap and insulin resistance in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

Diabet Med 25(7):798-804 (2008) PMID 18644066

Metabolic acidosis may contribute to the development of insulin resistance. To date, there have been no population-based studies of acid-base status and insulin resistance. We examined the cross-sectional relations between serum bicarbonate, anion gap, and insulin resistance in a subset of healthy participants in the 1999-2000 and 2001-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys.

    We conclude that regulation of amino acid transport in β-cells during ER stress involves responses leading to increased protein synthesis, which can be protective during acute stress but can lead to apoptosis during chronic stress. These studies suggest that the increased expression of amino acid t...

    We investigate the effect of CP-778 875 on the pharmacokinetics of atorvastatin acid and its metabolites in humans. 2.  The study incorporated a fixed-sequence design conducted in two groups. Group A was designed to estimate the effects of multiple doses of CP-778 875 on the single dose pharma...
