Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Cellular Mechanisms, Reductionist Pitfalls, and Evidence-Based Prevention
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus as a Multifactorial Cardiometabolic Disease: Cellular Mechanisms, Reductionist Pitfalls, and Evidence-Based Prevention Narrative Review Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a progressive, heterogeneous, multi-organ metabolic disease characterized by chronic hyperglycemia arising from inadequate insulin secretion relative to metabolic demand, usually
The Microbiome and Metabolism: Can Gut Flora Be the Next Endocrine Organ?
The Microbiome and Metabolism: Can Gut Flora Be the Next Endocrine Organ? Abstract The human gut microbiome has increasingly been recognized as a central determinant of metabolic health, with growing evidence suggesting that it functions not merely as a collection of commensal microorganisms but as a
Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists and Human Fertility
Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists and Human Fertility: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Clinical Implications Abstract Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are well established for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Increasingly, reports suggest a possible association between GLP-1 RA use and
