56 1999482 Activation of skeletal muscle casein kinase II by insulin is not diminished in subjects with insulin resistance.
57 1999482 To identify the putative postreceptor lesion responsible for insulin resistance in Pima Indians, we investigated the influence of insulin on the activity of casein kinase II (CKII) in skeletal muscle of seven insulin-sensitive, four insulin-resistant, nondiabetic, and five insulin-resistant diabetic Pima Indians during a 2 h hyperinsulinemic, euglycemic clamp.
58 1999482 Basal CKII activity was correlated with fasting plasma insulin concentrations, suggesting that the higher activity in resistant subjects resulted from insulin action.
59 1999482 Extracts of muscle obtained from all three groups either before or after insulin administration were treated with immobilized alkaline phosphatase, which reduced and equalized CKII activity.

82 2739355 The urinary enzymes alanine amino-peptidase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyltransferase and N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase and the two urine low-molecular mass proteins lysozyme and ribonuclease were measured in 30 healthy men and 36 insulin-dependent diabetics. 17 diabetics had "clinical proteinuria" (greater than 7.5 g/mol creatinine) and were defined as patients with manifest diabetic nephropathy.
83 2785908 To assess the possibility of such an interrelationship, we studied parameters relating to mineral metabolism (Ca, P, alkaline phosphatase, Mg, PTH, and hydroxyproline (OHP)); bone remodeling (osteocalcin); diabetic control (HbA1c); and radiological study of the second metacarpal of the left hand and of bone age in 87 children with type 1 DM.

90 2976378 In serum investigations some metabolic changes concerning the activities of the liver enzymes aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and the concentrations of urea and creatinine up to 30 days after drug application were studied.
91 3015628 Recent evidence suggests that the protein osteocalcin is like the bone alkaline phosphatase produced by osteoblasts and circulates in human blood.
92 3015628 Osteocalcin was elevated in primary hypoparathyroidism, low in untreated hypoparathyroidism but normal in hypoparathyroidism (including pseudohypoparathyroidism) during vitamin D treatment.
93 3015628 Osteocalcin (and urinary hydroxyproline) were not elevated in isolated hyperphosphatasaemia, indicating that mechanisms other than increased bone turnover may account for the markedly elevated serum alkaline phosphatase activity in these subjects.
94 3015628 Recent evidence suggests that the protein osteocalcin is like the bone alkaline phosphatase produced by osteoblasts and circulates in human blood.
95 3015628 Osteocalcin was elevated in primary hypoparathyroidism, low in untreated hypoparathyroidism but normal in hypoparathyroidism (including pseudohypoparathyroidism) during vitamin D treatment.

97 3063205 In patients with chronic renal failure PTH values ranged from normal to high, the PTH concentration was found to be correlated with plasma alkaline phosphatase, but not with plasma creatinine.
98 3125181 Incubation of the insulin receptor purified from TPA-treated cells with alkaline phosphatase decreased the phosphate content of the beta-subunit to the control level and reversed the inhibition, suggesting that the serine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit was responsible for the decreased tyrosine kinase activity.
99 3125181 Our results support the notion that the insulin receptor is a substrate for protein kinase C in the Fao cell and that the increase in serine phosphorylation of the beta-subunit of the receptor produced by TPA treatment inhibited tyrosine kinase activity in vivo and in vitro.
100 3125181 These data suggest that protein kinase C may regulate the function of the insulin receptor.
101 3233764 Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) isoenzymes were measured in type 1 diabetics, type 2 diabetics and in a non-diabetic control group.
102 3233764 Within the diabetics and the control group, intestinal ALP activity was significantly higher in BO secretors than A secretors or ABO non-secretors.
103 3527478 The rules included in this model are based upon initial results for total protein, calcium, glucose, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase, thyroxin, hemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, and the concentrations of four drugs.
104 3530724 Demonstration of insulin receptors and modulation of alkaline phosphatase activity by insulin in rat osteoblastic cells.
105 3530724 These cells share many common features with the osteoblast, such as 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 receptors, PTH receptors, and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-induced modulation of alkaline phosphatase activity and osteocalcin.
106 3530724 The receptors were highly specific for insulin, with 60% inhibition of insulin binding by an antireceptor antibody, no competition by epidermal growth factor, and an ED50 of 300 nM for proinsulin.
107 3530724 Chloroquine (100 microM) inhibited intracellular processing of insulin, leading to a 300% increase in cell-associated insulin by 2 h (37 C).

128 3665032 To measure changes in bone alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) activity in serum as a function of duration of pregnancy, we adapted our existing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) isoenzyme assay (which has been used to measure bone, hepatic, and intestinal ALP activities in serum, in the absence of placental ALP) to allow quantification of individual ALP isoenzyme activities in the presence of placental ALP.
129 3671097 Output of 14CO2 showed slight correlations with serum albumin and 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan grade, but not with other function tests (SGOT, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin).
130 3716026 Significantly increased serum concentrations of parathyroid hormone and calcitonin were found in the diabetics as well as increased levels of alkaline phosphatase activity and phosphate independent of the duration of the diabetic state.
131 3882158 That these changes in the diabetic animals represent major alterations in renal brush-border membrane construction is further supported by our observation that the specific activity of the marker enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and neutral alpha-glucosidase, are profoundly increased and decreased, respectively, in this condition.
132 3942450 Patients with neoplasia were older and more frequently had abnormal physical findings and significantly lower values of serum albumin as well as higher values of alkaline phosphatase than other patients.
133 3972185 There was no difference in plasma levels of Ca, phosphate (Pi), magnesium (Mg), alkaline phosphatase, immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH), calcitonin, 25-(OH)vitamin D (25[OH]D), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25[OH]2D), and 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (24,25[OH]2D) between the NIDDM rats and their controls of either sex.
134 3997134 It is postulated that eosinophils rich in arylsulfatase B, peroxidase, glucuronidase, beta-glycerophosphatase, major basic protein, and eosinophilic cationic protein may further weaken the necrotic myocardium and, in part, determine whether acute myocardial infarction will eventually result in cardiac rupture.
135 6120268 Because of the scarcity of data on the changes of serum enzymes during diabetic ketoacidosis, the authors have prospectively studied the alterations of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGTP), alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate aminotransferase (AsAT), and alanine aminotransferase (AIAT) in this metabolic disturbance.
136 6250773 Average values for serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, iron-binding capacity, magnesium, and hemoglobin values were normal.
137 6360758 Massive deposits of amyloid were observed in animals receiving as little as 17 mg of insulin over a time span of 52 days.
138 6360758 In those animals with hepatic amyloid, marked hepatomegaly was present (i.e., 1200 +/- 250, X +/- SD, versus 300 +/- 25 g for normal animals) and preterminal serum alkaline phosphatase levels were markedly elevated (434 +/- 285 versus 30 +/- 14 IU/L for animals without hepatic amyloid).
139 6360758 The magnitude of the hepatic amyloid deposits precludes the possibility that they represent insulin aggregates or insulin-derived products per se.
140 6360758 No evidence of amyloid was present in any of the tissue biopsy specimens obtained prior to insulin infusion.
141 6360758 It is of particular interest that the affinity of the amyloid deposits for Congo red stain was totally abolished by prior permanganate treatment, suggesting that the amyloid was derived from serum amyloid A protein rather than from immunoglobulin light chains or insulin aggregates per se.
142 6434199 As part of a six-month prospective study of the effects of neonatal thymectomy in the spontaneously diabetic BB Wistar rat, activities of the following enzymes were determined: alkaline phosphatase (AP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT) and UDP-galactosyltransferase (UDPG).
143 6482171 Diabetic patients showed significantly lower serum calcium and immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels than nondiabetic patients. iPTH was not related to total serum calcium, but was positively correlated with serum phosphorous (r = 0.37, P less than 0.05 and r = 0.54, P less than 0.005, in nondiabetic and diabetic patients, respectively). iPTH correlated with alkaline phosphatase (r = 0.59, P less than 0.0009) and calcitonin (r = 0.51, P less than 0.05) only in nondiabetic patients.
144 6507299 The prevalence of coronary heart disease, aortic stenosis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and the mean serum cholesterol, triglyceride, total protein, albumin, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase and calcium levels were not significantly different between patients with MAC and the control subjects.
145 6986535 These findings suggest that in alloxan diabetic rats the increased disaccharidase activity in the small intestine is due to insulin deficiency, and that the increased activity of alkaline phosphatase is only a secondary effect of insulin deficiency, caused by increased food intake resulting from insulin deficiency.
146 6989262 Mesenchymal cell proliferation was inhibited in diabetic rats as evidenced by a 65% reduction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and a 56% reduction of [3H]thymidine incorporation per microgram DNA compared to nondiabetic controls; the inhibition was prevented by insulin treatment.
147 6989262 Calcification of cartilage and osteogenesis were reduced by more than 50% in diabetic rats and corrected by insulin as measured by alkaline phosphatase activity and 45Ca incorporation.
148 7007680 The PTH levels showed positive correlations with bone scan scores and with alkaline phosphatase in nondiabetic patients but not in diabetic patients.
149 7028772 Serum calcium and phosphate concentrations were normal, immunoreactive parathyroid hormone was in the low normal range, and total serum alkaline phosphatase was elevated compared to age- and sex-matched controls.

231 7040194 The partial correlation and multivariate regression analysis showed that in oral sulfonylurea treated patients, but not in insulin treated patients, the activity of bone isoenzyme of serum alkaline phosphatase was significantly inverse dependent on the 25-hydroxycholecalciferol levels in plasma.
232 7099697 In the present report n. e. glu. of haemoglobin, serum protein, collagen, basement membrane protein and alkaline phosphatase is discussed.
233 7241240 On the other hand, experimental diabetes did not influence the activity of alkaline phosphatase and leucine aminopeptidase except for specific and total activities of alkaline phosphatase in food non-restricted rats.
234 7267479 Routine liver function tests, particularly plasma concentrations of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and alkaline phosphatase were elevated occasionally but rarely to more than twice the upper limit of normal.
235 7361898 Sucrase, maltase, trehalase, alkaline phosphatase, and leucylnaphthylamidase activities were elevated in diabetes; lactase did not show any changes.
236 7398086 Increased activity of bone isoenzyme of serum alkaline phosphatase was found in 52, 82 and 72% of the patients on dietary, oral agents, and insulin regimens, respectively.
237 7584696 Twice or three times daily intranasal administration of the hexapeptide hexarelin for 7 days to children with short stature and normal growth hormone (GH) secretion evoked a significant rise in serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and alkaline phosphatase.
238 7714089 The osteoblast function was evaluated in normal and diabetic children and adults by measurements of the serum concentration of the carboxy-terminal extension peptide of procollagen (PICP), total and skeletal alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and osteocalcin.
239 7714089 Moreover, the osteoblast-stimulating growth factor, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), was measured in the same samples.
240 7714089 In normal children (n = 420; age, 5-20 yr), a marked pubertal increase of serum IGF-I (peak values at age 14-16 yr in both sexes), osteocalcin, and total and skeletal ALP (peak values earlier in girls than in boys) and a small increase in PICP were observed.
241 7714089 In adolescents (n = 104) treated for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), serum IGF-I (-19%), osteocalcin (-28%), and skeletal ALP (-28%) were markedly decreased, whereas total ALP was significantly increased (29%), and serum PICP remained normal.
242 7714089 In adult IDDM (n = 125), both serum IGF-I (-41%) and osteocalcin (-24%) were decreased, but skeletal ALP and PICP remained normal.
243 7714089 A similar abnormality in serum IGF-I and osteocalcin was observed in white (n = 61) and Pima Indian (n = 16) non-IDDM patients.
244 7869671 Using specific monoclonal antibodies against the intestinal isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (IAP) and against the tissue-nonspecific isoenzyme (TNAP), we demonstrated that IAP expression in the human kidney is restricted to the straight part of the proximal tubule (the S3 segment), whereas TNAP is expressed mainly in the proximal convoluted tubule (the S1 and S2 segments) but also in the S3 segment.
245 7869671 This complementarity opens perspectives for IAP and TNAP as distinct proximal tubular markers, particularly for IAP, since there are no other markers available that are specific for the S3 segment.
246 7869671 Based on these monoclonal antibodies, specific and easy to use enzyme-antigen immunoassay (EAIA) procedures were developed to detect IAP and TNAP in human urine samples.
247 7869671 Using these assays, it could be demonstrated in more than 20 occupationally and environmentally exposed cohorts and clinical patient groups that urinary IAP is indeed a marker of early alterations in the S3 segment, and that it behaves largely independently from urinary TNAP.
248 7869671 Using specific monoclonal antibodies against the intestinal isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (IAP) and against the tissue-nonspecific isoenzyme (TNAP), we demonstrated that IAP expression in the human kidney is restricted to the straight part of the proximal tubule (the S3 segment), whereas TNAP is expressed mainly in the proximal convoluted tubule (the S1 and S2 segments) but also in the S3 segment.
249 7869671 This complementarity opens perspectives for IAP and TNAP as distinct proximal tubular markers, particularly for IAP, since there are no other markers available that are specific for the S3 segment.

261 7929029 We demonstrate here that the inhibition of DNA binding by BEF-1 dephosphorylated with potato acid phosphatase or calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase was reversed by sodium orthovanadate, a specific inhibitor of phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatases.
262 7950501 Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine, quantified by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and biochemical bone remodeling markers (serum alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase and urinary hydroxyproline) have been studied in 94 patients with diabetes mellitus aged 18-62 years.
263 7996492 Beta-glucuronidase, lysozyme, acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase were not altered in diabetics, compared to that in control subjects.
264 8046546 This paper is a study to identify the clinical significance of high-molecular-mass alkaline phosphatase (ALP:E:C..3.1.3.1.), ALP-lipoprotein-X complex (LP-X) and intestinal variant ALP.
265 8046546 We used cellulose acetate and agarose gels and techniques including wheat germ lectin, cetavlon-diethyl ether, thermostatability, neuraminidase and L-phenylalanine to improve the electrophoretic separation of the alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes.
266 8046546 Intestinal variant ALP is most likely composed of intestinal ALP attached to a cellular membrane-binding domain, or may be an artifact produced by neuraminidase incubation.

270 8061353 The authors evaluated the prevalence, magnitude, and contributing factors for osteopenia in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
271 8061353 Serum ionized calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and urinary calcium, phosphorus, and hydroxyproline were also analyzed.
272 8076446 We investigated the overnight fasting serum 25 (OH) vit-D, 1,25(OH)2 vit-D3, osteocalcin (OC), bone isoenzyme of alkaline phosphatase (ALK-PB) and intact parathyroid hormone (I-PTH) levels in these cases.
273 8083198 A synthetic tris-sulfotyrosyl dodecapeptide (TRDIY(S)ETDY(S)Y(S)RK-amide), whose primary sequence is identical to the 1142-1153 sequence of the insulin proreceptor, inhibited insulin receptor dephosphorylation in solubilized membranes, and digitonin-permeabilized cells derived from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing high levels of human insulin receptors (CHO/HIRc).
274 8083198 The peptide displayed specificity toward tyrosine-class phosphatases only, as it had no effect on the activities of the serine/threonine phosphatases PP-1 and PP-2A, or alkaline phosphatase.
275 8084450 Human intestinal alkaline phosphatase (hIAP), a specific marker of the proximal tubular S3 segment, was elevated in the urine of microalbuminuric patients while human tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (hTNAP), indicating effects mainly at the S1-S2 segments, was not.
276 8097685 To evaluate tubular damage in diabetic patients, we measured the 24 h urinary excretion of five enzymes (N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, dipeptidyl aminopeptidase IV, alanine aminopeptidase and alkaline phosphatase) that originate in renal proximal tubular cells. 2.
277 8103033 Plasma endopeptidase 24.11 activity in patients correlated closely with traditional serum markers of cholestasis, including levels of alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase and aminopeptidase (p < 0.01 for all).
278 8359783 The liver function at the peak of the hepatic enlargement showed a moderate increase of transaminases, alkaline phosphatase, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase.
279 8406549 The data suggested the presence of two forms of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in normal rat intestines.
280 8437990 Effect of dietary carbohydrate and phenotype on sucrase, maltase, lactase, and alkaline phosphatase specific activity in SHR/N-cp rat.
281 8437990 The current study was conducted to investigate the influence of phenotype (ob versus In) and source of dietary carbohydrate (sucrose versus starch) on intestinal sucrase, maltase, lactase, and alkaline phosphatase activity in SHR/N-cp rats.
282 8437990 These results are not indicative of a simple, nonspecific increase in intestinal enzyme activity, since the effects observed in intestinal alkaline phosphatase contrast the effects observed in intestinal sucrase, maltase, and lactase activity.
283 8437990 Effect of dietary carbohydrate and phenotype on sucrase, maltase, lactase, and alkaline phosphatase specific activity in SHR/N-cp rat.
284 8437990 The current study was conducted to investigate the influence of phenotype (ob versus In) and source of dietary carbohydrate (sucrose versus starch) on intestinal sucrase, maltase, lactase, and alkaline phosphatase activity in SHR/N-cp rats.

288 8437990 These results are not indicative of a simple, nonspecific increase in intestinal enzyme activity, since the effects observed in intestinal alkaline phosphatase contrast the effects observed in intestinal sucrase, maltase, and lactase activity.
289 8536058 Since cells of the monocyte-macrophage lineage produce important local regulators of bone remodeling, we examined effects of human monocytes-conditioned medium (CM) treated with retinoic acid on [3H] thymidine incorporation (TdR) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells.
290 8575126 The groups did not differ in their serum concentrations of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), calcium, inorganic phosphate and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D. 25-hydroxy-vitamin D and alkaline phosphatase were found to be significantly higher in HD patients.
291 8745204 Plasma alkaline phosphatase activity and parathyroid hormone level showed no difference between the two groups of diabetic rats with or without EPA.
292 8797113 Alkaline phosphatase activity and osteocalcin secretion were inhibited by 20-30% and 15-70%, respectively, by the glycation of collagen for 1-5 weeks.
293 8835919 Because of the previous controversial findings in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), we measured bone-mineral density (BMD) by two different methods, studied biochemical markers of bone remodeling and calciotropic hormones (parathyroid hormone and calcitonin) in women with NIDDM, and compared the results with age-matched controls.
294 8835919 Biochemical markers of bone remodeling included plasma alkaline phosphatase (AP), osteocalcin (BGP), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin (CT), and 24-h urine calcium, hydroxyproline.
295 9112245 In both genders aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were, or tended to be, positively correlated to fasting serum insulin, visceral AT (women), and alcohol intake.
296 9112245 In both genders alkaline phosphatase was, or tended to be, positively associated with visceral AT, insulin (women), and glucose.
297 9137941 Markers of bone turnover (alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, procollagen type I C-terminal propeptide, collagen type I C-terminal telopeptide, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase) were measured at baseline.
298 9240877 Serum osteocalcin (OC) and bone alkaline phosphatase were measured as markers of bone formation and urinary deoxypyridinoline was taken as a marker of bone resorption.
299 9260537 The alkaline phosphatase was elevated in 56%, the aspartate aminotransferase was increased in 58% and the gamma glutamyl transpeptidase in 56%. 56% of the patients had macronodular cirrhosis; the liver showed a micronodular pattern in 18%; 7% had biliary cirrhosis; 7% chronic active hepatitis with cirrhosis; and 13% showed a mixed macro-micronodular pattern.
300 9276088 In addition, when cultures of mature primary rat osteoblasts were plated onto an in vitro AGE-modified collagen substrate, they showed altered cell functions, in terms of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin secretion, and nodule formation (J Bone Miner Res 11:931-937; 1996).
301 9276088 Growth of UMR 201-10B cells on a type I collagen substrate significantly inhibited cell growth and retinoic acid (RA)-induced upregulation of ALP activity, compared to cells on plastic.
302 9276088 Unmodified collagen stimulated production of osteopontin mRNA, which was reduced by AGE modification to levels attained in cells on plastic.
303 9276088 Growth on control collagen inhibited TGF-beta type II receptor binding in 10B cells, while this inhibition was reduced by AGE modification.
304 9276088 These data further suggest that collagen-mediated events in these cells may be at least in part mediated by regulation of the TGF-beta receptor expression.
305 9284719 Bone resorption markers, urinary deoxypyridinoline (Dpd) and type I collagen carboxy-terminal telopeptide (CTx), as well as a bone formation marker, serum bone type alkaline phosphatase (BALP), were reduced.
306 9284719 The decrease in Dpd, CTx and BALP, but not the increase in OC, correlated with each other and with the improvement in glycemic indices.
307 9299959 Relations between intestinal alkaline phosphatase activity and insulin secretion in obese patients.
308 9342018 The following laboratory tests were performed on serum specimens from all subjects: albumin (ALB), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, and prothrombin time.
309 9342018 However, the concentrations of ALB, ALT, AST, AST/ALT, and prothrombin time were substantially different among the four groups.
310 9343928 We have synthesized a tris-sulfotyrosyl dodecapeptide (3S-peptide-I) that corresponds to the major autophosphorylation domain within the insulin receptor beta-subunit and showed that it potently inhibited insulin receptor dephosphorylation by protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) in vitro. 3S-peptide-I also inhibited tyrosine dephosphorylation of a synthetic peptide by the recombinant PTPase PTP-1B, indicating that 3S-peptide-I interacts directly with PTPase, causing its inactivation.
311 9343928 The peptide had no effect on the activity of serine/threonine phosphatases, PP-1 and PP-2A, or alkaline phosphatase.
312 9343928 Furthermore, we found that the introduction of a N-stearyl derivative of 3S-peptide-I in CHO/HIRc cells caused a significant increase in insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the insulin receptor.
313 9343928 In contrast, ligand-stimulated phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor in CHO cells overexpressing EGF receptors was not affected by the presence of N-stearyl-3S-peptide-I.
314 9358337 We describe a sandwich ELISA based on monoclonal GAD65 antibodies (Mc-GAD65-Ab) of different epitope specificities to quantify GAD65 in pancreatic islets and in different organ/cell extracts and during the preparation of GAD from brain extracts.
315 9358337 The detection limit was estimated to be 0.03 ng GAD65/ml using alkaline phosphatase (AP)-conjugated streptavidin.
316 9422753 14-3-3beta protein associates with insulin receptor substrate 1 and decreases insulin-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase activity in 3T3L1 adipocytes.
317 9422753 An in vitro binding study revealed that glutathione S-transferase-14-3-3beta fusion protein directly associates with recombinant IRS-1.
318 9422753 Pretreatment of recombinant IRS-1 with alkaline phosphatase clearly decreased this association.
319 9422753 When the cells are treated with insulin, phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) is supposed to complex either 14-3-3beta-IRS-1 or IRS-1.
320 9422753 The specific activity of the PI3K in the former was approximately half of that in the latter, suggesting that 14-3-3beta protein bound to IRS-1 inhibits insulin-stimulated lipid kinase activity of PI3K in 3T3L1 adipocytes.
321 9480464 The aim of study was to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD) in lumbar spine (AP Spine), total body (Total Body) and distal site of radius (Forearm), and selected markers of bone formation: serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin(OC), and bone resorption: pyridinoline (PIR) and deoxy-pyridinoline (DPIR) in urine, in patients with long-standing insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), in comparison to healthy controls.
322 9681272 We determined serum osteocalcin (OC) and total alkaline phosphatase levels as markers of bone formation, and urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD) and urinary calcium levels as markers of bone resorption.
323 9776869 There was no significant change in the levels of AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase, total protein, albumin-globulin ratio and prothrombin time.
324 9790451 Among those with severe pruritus associated with chronic hepatitis C, serum aminotransferases were raised in all, alkaline phosphatase in four, and gamma-glutamyl-transpeptidase levels in all except one.
325 9795371 Serum levels of insulin-like growth factor system components and relationship to bone metabolism in Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
326 9795371 To address this question, we performed a cross-sectional study measuring serum levels of IGF-I, IGF-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1), IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4 and IGFBP-5 by specific immunoassays in 52 adults with Type 1 (n=27) and Type 2 (n=25) diabetes mellitus and 100 age- and sex-matched healthy blood donors.
327 9795371 In the diabetic patients, we further determined serum levels of proinsulin, intact parathyroid hormone (PTH), 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and several biochemical bone markers, including osteocalcin (OSC), bone alkaline phosphatase (B-ALP), carboxy-terminal propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP), and type I collagen cross-linked carboxy-terminal telopeptide (ICTP).
328 9795371 Type 1 diabetics showed significantly lower IGF-I (119+/-8 ng/ml) and IGFBP-3 (2590+/-104 ng/ml) but higher IGFBP-1 levels (38+/-10 ng/ml) compared with Type 2 patients (170+/-13, 2910+/-118, 11+/-3 respectively; P<0.05) or healthy controls (169+/-5, 4620+/-192, 3.5+/-0.4 respectively; P<0.01).
329 9795371 IGFBP-5 levels were markedly lower in both diabetic groups (Type 1, 228+/-9; Type 2, 242+/-11 ng/ml) than in controls (460+/-7 ng/ml,P<0. 01), whereas IGFBP-4 levels were similar in diabetics and controls.
330 9795371 IGF-I correlated positively with IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-5 and negatively with IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-4 in all subjects.
331 9795371 In Type 1 patients, BMD of hip correlated negatively with IGFBP-1 (r=-0.34, P<0.05) and IGFBP-4 (r=-0.3, P<0.05) but positively with IGFBP-5 (r=0.37, P<0. 05), which was independent of age, diabetes duration, height, weight and body mass index, as assessed by partial correlation analysis.
332 9795371 Furthermore, biochemical markers indicating bone loss (ICTP) and increased bone turnover (PTH, OSC) correlated positively with IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-4 but negatively with IGF-I, IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-5, while the opposite was observed with bone formation markers (PICP, B-ALP) and vitamin D3 metabolites.
333 9795371 In 20 Type 2 patients in whom immunoreactive proinsulin could be detected, significant positive correlations were found between proinsulin and BMD of hip (r=0.63, P<0.005), IGF-I (r=0.59, P<0.01) as well as IGFBP-3 (r=0.49, P<0.05).
334 9795371 Type 1 and Type 2 patients with macroalbuminuria showed a lower BMD of hip, lower IGFBP-5 but higher IGFBP-4 levels, suggesting that diabetic nephropathy may contribute to bone loss by a disturbed IGF system.
335 9838239 Calcium-phosphorus metabolism was studied by measuring the circulating levels of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, 25-OH-vitamin D and parathyroid hormone and the urinary excretion of calcium and phosphorus.
336 9876434 Every three months, the serum levels of AST, ALT, alkaline phosphatase, gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, cholesterol, triglyceride and glycemia are assessed over a two year follow-up.
337 9933248 Purified osteopontin (0.05 to 5 microgram/mL) dose dependently inhibited calcification of BASMC cultures, whereas vitronectin and fibronectin had no effect.
338 9933248 In contrast to the inhibitory mechanism of levamisole on mineral deposition, osteopontin did not inhibit alkaline phosphatase activity or reduce phosphorus levels in the culture medium.
339 10213645 The following data were analyzed: demographics; cause of renal failure; hematocrit; serum urea, creatinine, uric acid, albumin, glucose, hemoglobin A1c, bicarbonate, sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase levels; anion gap; urinary protein excretion; Ccr/1.73 m2; half of the sum of creatinine and urea clearances (Ccr-Cu); protein-equivalent nitrogen appearance (PNA); and whether the patients received diuretics (75 patients), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (54 patients), and/or calcium channel blockers (55 patients).
340 10232775 In addition, a decrease in plasma enzymes - alkaline phosphatase (ALP), glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT), glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was noted.
341 10329391 Second, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction revealed that AGE increased the pericyte levels of mRNAs coding for alkaline phosphatase and osteopontin, the representative markers for early and late osteoblastic differentiation, respectively.
342 10352977 Changes of the ATPase, acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase reaction intensity in the parotid and submandibular glands of rabbits in experimental diabetes.
343 10401014 A stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that PTH levels were predicted by Mg (P < 0.001), alkaline phosphatase (P < 0.01), and P levels (P< 0.05; multiple R = 0.57; P < 0.001), whereas Ca level, sex (dummy variable), diabetes (dummy variable), time on dialysis, and Al level were not predictive.
344 10401014 Patients with inadequately low PTH levels (relative hypoparathyroidism, PTH < 120 pg/mL; n = 52) showed greater serum Mg concentrations than the rest (n = 58; 3.01 +/- 0.33 v 2.63 +/- 0.38 mg/dL; P < 0.001).
345 10440634 Periodontal ligament cells from insulin-dependent diabetics exhibit altered alkaline phosphatase activity in response to growth factors.
346 10543415 Markers of bone turnover were serum bone alkaline phosphatase (sBAP) and osteocalcin (sOC) by ELISA, and urinary total pyridinoline (uPYD) and deoxypyridinoline crosslinks (uDPD) by HPLC.
347 10624460 During stimulation with 1,25(OH)2D3 at 2.0 micrograms/day for 6 consecutive days in 9 type 2 diabetic patients, serum levels of bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), osteocalcin (OC) and the carboxyterminal propeptide of type 1 procollagen, and the urinary excretion of pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline (DPYR), were monitored.
348 10649720 There was no significant difference in biochemical parameters (blood hemoglobin, serum ferritin, erythropoietin, BUN, creatinine) between the two groups.
349 10649720 There were no significants difference in serum calcium, phosphorus, tartate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) between the two groups.
350 10649720 Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin were significantly (P < 0.05) higher in Group I than in Group II.
351 10649720 These results suggest that patients with bone marrow expansion in BMIS have increased levels of ALP and osteocalcin, indicating an increased osteoblastic activity.
352 10665940 Maximum PTH levels were analyzed as a function of race, gender, age, diabetic status, and levels of serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and aluminum.
353 10720784 The root extract also lowers hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase and serum acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, and lactate dehydrogenase in diabetic rats.
354 10724355 Troglitazone (Tro), a new anti-diabetic drug, is a thiazolidinedione (TZD) which promotes adipocyte differentiation by activating peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma).
355 10724355 As bone resorption markers, urinary free and total deoxypyridinoline as well as urinary collagen type I C-terminal telopeptide were measured; as bone formation markers, serum bone type and total alkaline phosphatase (BALP and ALP) levels along with osteocalcin (OC) were used.
356 10760525 Activators of PPARalpha, delta and gamma induced alkaline phosphatase activity, matrix calcification and the expression of osteoblast genes as determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction.
357 10760525 PPARalpha, delta and gamma1 were expressed in MC3T3-E1 cells.
358 10871198 Decreased insulin receptor tyrosine kinase activity and plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1 overexpression in skeletal muscle from obese women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM): evidence for increased serine/threonine phosphorylation in pregnancy and GDM.
359 10871198 The membrane protein plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1 (PC-1) has been identified as an inhibitor of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase (IRTK) activity.
360 10871198 We investigated insulin receptor function and PC-1 levels in muscle from three groups of obese subjects: women with GDM, pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance, and nonpregnant control subjects.
361 10871198 IRTK activity, insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, and protein levels of membrane glycoprotein PC-1 were determined in rectus abdominus muscle biopsies obtained at the time of either elective cesarean section or gynecological surgery.
362 10871198 Treatment of the insulin receptors with alkaline phosphatase to dephosphorylate serine/threonine residues increased insulin-stimulated IRTK activity significantly in pregnant control and GDM subjects (P < 0.05), but these rates were still lower compared with nonpregnant control subjects (P < 0.05).
363 10871198 PC-1 content was negatively correlated with insulin receptor phosphorylation (r = -0.55, P < 0.05) and IRTK activity (r = -0.66, P < 0.05).
364 10871198 These results indicate that pregnant control and GDM subjects had increased PC-1 content and suggest excessive phosphorylation of serine/threonine residues in muscle insulin receptors and that both may contribute to decreased IRTK activity.
365 10874799 Blood samples were obtained for serum glucose, osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase analyses.
366 10874799 Biochemical analyses were mixed; diabetic animals demonstrated increased serum osteocalcin levels compared to controls but decreased alkaline phosphatase.
367 10874799 Blood samples were obtained for serum glucose, osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase analyses.
368 10874799 Biochemical analyses were mixed; diabetic animals demonstrated increased serum osteocalcin levels compared to controls but decreased alkaline phosphatase.
369 10882147 The objective was to evaluate the prevalence and severity of osteopenia in patients with uncomplicated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and to obtain more information on the pathophysiology of diabetic osteopenia.
370 10882147 In addition, markers of bone formation [plasma insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), serum bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and serum osteocalcin] and bone resorption [urinary excretion of calcium and of the cross-linked N-telopeptide of type 1 collagen, both corrected for the excretion of creatinine] were measured in the diabetic patients and in 33 healthy controls, matched for sex, age, height, weight and body mass index (BMI).
371 10882147 There were no differences in the mean serum ALP, BAP and osteocalcin levels between the diabetic patients and the controls, nor between the diabetic patients with and without femoral neck osteopenia.
372 10882147 Considering only the male diabetic patients, significantly lower mean plasma IGF-I (-26%), serum ALP (-24%) and serum osteocalcin (-38%) levels were present in the patients with femoral neck osteopenia than in those without osteopenia at this site, suggesting lowered bone formation.
373 10883059 Modifications in the TXA(2) and PGI(2) plasma levels and some other biochemical parameters during the initiation and development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) syndrome in the rabbit.
374 10883059 Having developed a non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) syndrome model in the rabbit using Wirsung duct ligation, it appeared interesting to use it to study the relationship between glycemia and the plasma levels of TXA(2)and PGI(2), and of some other biochemical parameters such as cholesterol, triglycerides, alkaline phosphatase and transaminases.
375 10947976 In addition, MCD activity was shown to be enhanced by alkaline phosphatase treatment, suggesting phosphorylation-related control of the enzyme.
376 10980061 In univariate analysis, it was associated with hepatitis C virus infection, treatment with mycophenolate mofetil, and greater serum levels of alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, urea, and creatinine.
377 11026755 A significant increase of alkaline phosphatase activity in SaOS 2 and HOS 58 cells and of osteocalcin levels in SaOS 2 cells was detected following estrogen treatment.
378 11048675 Hence, we studied the experimental conditions necessary to obtain measurable effects of high sugar concentrations (5-mM glucose, mannitol, fructose and galactose) upon body growth and development of Bufo arenarum embryos and larvae, and upon the activity of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), and alkaline phosphatase (APP).
379 11137300 PTP-1B is a ubiquitously expressed intracellular protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) that has been implicated in the negative regulation of insulin signaling.
380 11137300 Mice deficient in PTP-1B were found to have an enhanced insulin sensitivity and a resistance to diet-induced obesity.
381 11137300 In addition, the promoter in a number of mouse strains contains, 3.5 kb upstream of the start codon, an insertion of an intracisternal a particle (IAP) element that possibly could alter the expression of PTP-1B mRNA in these strains.
382 11165939 Cellular proliferation as well as the release of markers of osteoblast activity (osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase) were determined at the end of the experimental period (day 30).
383 11165939 Cellular proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly increased in the presence of glucose, however, the release of osteocalcin into culture media was similar in all three groups.
384 11165939 Cellular proliferation as well as the release of markers of osteoblast activity (osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase) were determined at the end of the experimental period (day 30).
385 11165939 Cellular proliferation and alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly increased in the presence of glucose, however, the release of osteocalcin into culture media was similar in all three groups.
386 11180921 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha), interleukin 1beta (IL-1beta), platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) in cytoplasm were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).
387 11180921 Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was standardized by the DNA content of the cells.
388 11223182 Analysis of in vitro interactions of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B with insulin receptors.
389 11223182 Because protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) binds and subsequently dephosphorylates IR, inhibitors of PTP1B-IR binding are potential insulin 'sensitizers.'
390 11223182 PTP1B binding to IR from insulin-stimulated cells was much greater than to IR from unstimulated cells and was inhibited by either an antiphosphotyrosine antibody or treatment of IR with alkaline phosphatase, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation of IR is required for PTP1B binding.
391 11311965 Activities of alanine amino transferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in serum were determined.
392 11444086 We measured biochemical markers of bone formation (serum osteocalcin and total alkaline phosphatase) and bone resorption (serum and urinary CTX), parameters related to diabetes and serum lipids and lipoproteins.
393 11500515 Analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence demonstrated that this gene encodes a novel 126-kDa putative serine/threonine protein kinase containing a nuclear localization signal.
394 11500515 When stably expressed in MC3T3-E1 cells, BIKe significantly decreases alkaline phosphatase activity and osteocalcin mRNA levels and retards mineral deposition relative to vector control.
395 11507653 We investigated whether subjects from the macrobiotic group showed signs of catching up with controls in terms of relative bone mass, reflected by higher levels of serum osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase and lower levels of urinary cross-links.
396 11576940 Among biochemical markers for bone metabolism, serum levels of intact osteocalcin (iOC) and deoxypyridinoline (DPD) were significantly lower in HD patients with than without DM, whereas serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, pyridinoline, and beta-crosslaps did not differ significantly between the two groups of patients.
397 11751700 Phosphoproteomic analysis of angiotensin (Ang) II-stimulated aortic smooth muscle cells revealed that heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) represents a major protein phosphorylation target of the AT(1) signaling pathway.
398 11751700 Stimulation of cells with Ang II resulted in 1.7-fold (P<0.05) and 5.5-fold (P<0.001) increases in HSP27 phosphoisoforms at pI 5.7 and pI 5.4, respectively.
399 11751700 Treatment of samples with alkaline phosphatase reversed this redistribution of HSP27 phosphoisoforms.
400 11751700 Ang II-stimulated HSP27 phosphorylation was completely blocked by pretreatment of cells with the AT(1) antagonist CV11974.
401 11751700 Phosphoamino acid analysis demonstrated that Ang II-induced phosphorylation of both HSP27 phosphoisoforms occurred exclusively on serine.
402 11751700 Protein kinase C inhibition completely blocked phorbol ester-induced HSP27 phosphorylation but did not impair Ang II-stimulated phosphorylation of HSP27, suggesting that AT(1) increased HSP27 phosphorylation by a protein kinase C-independent pathway.
403 11751700 Intrajugular infusion of Ang II in rats increased HSP27 in aorta by 1.7-fold (P<0.02), and this response was inhibited by CV11974.
404 11751700 These results suggest that Ang II-induced HSP27 phosphorylation is a physiologically relevant AT(1) signaling event.
405 11751700 Because serine phosphorylation of HSP27 blocks its ability to cap F-actin, Ang II/AT(1)-induced HSP27 phosphorylation may play a key role in actin filament remodeling required for smooth muscle cell migration and contraction.
406 11788159 Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alkaline phosphatase (AlP) activities were significantly (P<0.05) increased in the plasma of alloxan-diabetic rats.
407 11978657 The principal gap junction protein of intercellular communication, connexin, was investigated to determine the effects of high glucose concentrations on the expression of endothelial-specific connexins (Cx37, Cx40, and Cx43), connexin phosphorylation pattern, and GJIC activity.
408 11978657 Rat microvascular endothelial (RME) cells grown in high (30 mmol/l)-glucose medium for 9 days had reduced Cx43 expression: Cx43 mRNA (68 +/- 13% of control; P = 0.019, n = 5) and protein (55.6 +/- 16% of control; P = 0.003, n = 5) levels were reduced; however, Cx37 and Cx40 expression was not affected.
409 11978657 Using alkaline phosphatase and Western blot analyses, we identified three forms of Cx43: a nonphosphorylated form (P0) and two phosphorylated forms (P1 and P2).
410 12046040 Of the biochemical markers measured, serum intact osteocalcin (iOC) and deoxypyridinoline levels were significantly lower in patients with diabetes, although serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) and pyridinoline levels did not differ significantly between the two groups of patients.
411 12050253 Bone markers indicated an enhanced bone resorption (21 and 23% increase in C-terminal and N-terminal cross-linking telopeptides of type I collagen/creatinine, respectively) with unchanged (osteocalcin, procollagen I N-terminal propeptide) or reduced (54% reduction in bone alkaline phosphatase) bone formation.
412 12050253 IGF-I (30%), IGF binding protein 3 (18%), testosterone (50%), and SHBG (40%) were reduced in TS.
413 12118438 Of 56 HBV-DNA positive individuals, alanine transaminase (ALT) was found to be raised in 69.6% (p=0.066) and aspartate transaminase (AST) was raised in 66.1% (p=0.011), while 67.9% had normal alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (p=0.054).
414 12137765 The whole choroids were dissected from the sclera, fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde and processed for immunohistochemical demonstration of perlecan, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan, using a streptavidin alkaline phosphatase technique.
415 12173074 Three vitamin D receptor alleles were examined (BsmI, TaqI and FokI); serum levels of intact osteocalcin, parathyroid hormone, bone specific alkaline phosphatase, the carboxy terminal extension peptide of type I procollagen, 25-OH-vitamin D levels, HbA1c and urinary deoxypyridinoline excretion were measured.
416 12498766 Syngeneic splenocytes were transduced with retroviral particles carrying a cDNA construct encoding the beta cell antigen glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD65), a secreted form of GAD65 (SGAD55), or secreted alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) as a control antigen.
417 12550067 Serum chromium level appeared to be higher in the general population in our country compared to western countries (36.5-59.5 nmol/L as compared to 2.3-40.3 nmol/L) However, the local diabetics were found to have a lower serum chromium level than the healthy controls (32.3 nmol/L against 44.7 nmol/L; p < 0.0001) and a mean increase of 3.5 nmol/L was noted after 12 weeks of chromium supplementation that was, expectedly, not seen in the placebo phase (p < 0.0001).Significant improvement in glycaemic control was noted in the chromium-treated group (DeltaFasting serum glucose = 0.44 mmol/L, p < 0.001; DeltaPost-prandial serum glucose = 1.97 mmol/L, p < 0.001; Deltaglycated hemoglobin = 0.01; p = 0.04, in comparison to placebo) This was accompanied by a significant greater fall in fasting serum insulin in the chromium-treated group, p < 0.05.The change in lipid parameters (total serum cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides) did not show significant difference between the chromium and placebo groups.Clinically significant hematological, renal or hepatic toxicity were excluded by routine hemogram, serum urea, creatinine, alanine amino transferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase estimations.In conclusion, chromium supplementation seems to improve glycaemic control in type 2 diabetic patients, which appears to be due to an increase in insulin action rather than stimulation of insulin secretion.
418 12643143 Several bone-associated proteins (e.g., osteopontin, bone sialoprotein, alkaline phosphatase, type 1 collagen, osteocalcin) have been demonstrated in histologic sections of vessels obtained from patients with diabetes or ESRD.
419 12643143 In addition, uremic serum upregulates osteoblast transcription factor Cbfa 1 and osteopontin expression in cultured VSMCs.
420 12674382 The levels of glucose and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) increased abnormally in the alloxan treated group and the same were normalized upon treatment with the herbal preparation.
421 12674382 The levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), protein and albumin in all groups remained unaltered.
422 12716972 Serum parameters confirming this indirect effect included elevated calcitriol, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, and receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand concentrations, and suppressed parathyroid hormone concentrations in HDC(-/-) mice compared with WT mice.
423 12720051 The percent change of BMD was negatively correlated with that of serum leptin, whereas it was not associated with changes of bone metabolic markers, type I collagen N-telopeptide (NTx), bone alkaline phosphatase (ALP), body mass index, or HbA1c.
424 12724015 Serum alkaline phosphatase values were similar to the control group, whereas serum osteocalcin and N-telopeptide/creatinine (NTx/Cr) values were significantly lower than the control group (osteocalcin: 8.82 +/- 4.03 ng/ml, NTx/Cr: 122.70 +/- 81.76 nMBCE/mMCr) in diabetic patients (osteocalcin: 4.44 +/- 3.53 ng/ml, NTx/Cr: 42.24 +/- 29.97 nMBCE/mMCr).
425 12746755 In addition, T3 markedly increased specific alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity in HOB (10(-10) M: 169.86 +/- 12.14 % vs. control, p < 0.001), but no significant influence on type I procollagen propeptide (PICP) production was observed.
426 12757753 Although, the activities of both gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and alkaline phosphatase of the brush border membrane decreased, that of the latter decreased to a significant extent with an increase in K(m) (81%) and no change in the V(max).
427 12777378 Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphatase-4 plays a potential role in insulin resistance.
428 12777378 Specifically, a reporter system comprised of the PEPCK promoter upstream of alkaline phosphatase was used in a hepatocyte cell-based assay to screen an expression cDNA library for genes that reverse insulin-induced repression of PEPCK transcription.
429 12777378 Here we show that MKP-4 is expressed in insulin-responsive tissues and that the expression levels are up-regulated in obese insulin-resistant rodent models.
430 12777378 Heterologous expression of MKP-4 in preadipocytes significantly blocked insulin-induced adipogenesis, and overexpression of MKP-4 in adipocytes inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake.
431 12777378 Our data suggest that MKP-4 negatively regulates insulin signaling and, consequently, may contribute to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance.
432 12826018 The activities of the enzymes aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase (LD), creatine kinase (CK), amylase (AMS) and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) have been used to assess the toxic effects of xenobiotics that have hypoglycaemic action in hepatic, pancreatic, renal and muscle tissue.
433 12826018 Levels of hepatic enzymes AST, ALT and ALP were higher in the streptozotocin (STZ)-diabetic rats (group D), but were controlled by insulin therapy (group DI).
434 12826018 Proteinuria was detected 1 day after STZ administration and partially controlled by insulin (group DI); its early presence in group D rats, and the lack of any change in serum ACE in this group, indicates that proteinuria is the better marker for microangiopathy.
435 12826018 The liver, pancreas and kidney tissue-damage was consistent with the altered serum levels of AST, ALT, ALP and AMS and proteinuria.
436 12925529 The osteoblast factor osterix (Osx) is up-regulated 10-fold by Msx2, but Runx2 mRNA is unchanged; the early osteoblast marker alkaline phosphatase increases 50-fold with mineralized nodule formation enhanced 30-fold.
437 13095523 [Inorganic phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase in the blood following administration of glucose and insulin in diabetes: preliminary observations].
438 14577585 In the present study, an investigation of the diabetes induced regional changes in fluidity, oxidative damage, non-enzymatic glycation as well as the activities and the kinetic parameters of the enzymes alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase was carried out on the intestinal BBM.
439 14599111 Medical examination revealed high alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels making her visit our clinic.
440 14628094 Presenting signs and symptoms, like jaundice, diabetes, alkaline phosphatase, aspartate and alanine aminotransferase elevation and history of cholecystectomy did not have any significant impact on survival.
441 14661073 We measured BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and quantitative bone ultrasound (QUS), as well as the serum levels of osteocalcin (OC), bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteoprotegerin (OPG) and its ligand RANKL, and the urinary concentration of the C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (CrossLaps), in 36 patient (20 male and 16 female) with serious atherosclerotic involvement of the carotid and/or femoral artery to investigate the underlying mechanism of vascular and osseous disorders.
442 14671148 Pegvisomant-induced serum insulin-like growth factor-I normalization in patients with acromegaly returns elevated markers of bone turnover to normal.
443 14671148 Pegvisomant is a GH receptor antagonist that normalizes serum IGF-I in 97% of patients with active acromegaly.
444 14671148 Serum procollagen III amino-terminal propeptide (PIIINP) and type I procollagen amino-terminal propeptide, osteocalcin (OC), bone-related alkaline phosphatase, C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type I collagen (CTx), albumin-corrected calcium, intact PTH, 25-hydroxy vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D [1,25-(OH)(2) vit D], urinary type 1 collagen cross-linked N-telopeptide/creatinine ratio, and urinary calcium (24 h collection) were measured (single-batch analysis) at study entry and after IGF-I normalization, along with sera from 32 age- and sex-matched controls.
445 14671148 Pegvisomant-induced serum IGF-I normalization (699 +/- 76 to 242 +/- 28 micro g/liter, P < 0.001) was associated with a significant decrease in PIIINP, markers of bone formation (type I procollagen amino-terminal propeptide, OC, and bone-related alkaline phosphatase), and resorption (CTx and urinary type 1 collagen cross-linked N-telopeptide/creatinine ratio). 1,25-(OH)(2) vit D decreased and intact PTH increased significantly, but 25-hydroxy vitamin D was unaffected.
446 14671148 Pegvisomant-induced serum insulin-like growth factor-I normalization in patients with acromegaly returns elevated markers of bone turnover to normal.
447 14671148 Pegvisomant is a GH receptor antagonist that normalizes serum IGF-I in 97% of patients with active acromegaly.

449 14671148 Pegvisomant-induced serum IGF-I normalization (699 +/- 76 to 242 +/- 28 micro g/liter, P < 0.001) was associated with a significant decrease in PIIINP, markers of bone formation (type I procollagen amino-terminal propeptide, OC, and bone-related alkaline phosphatase), and resorption (CTx and urinary type 1 collagen cross-linked N-telopeptide/creatinine ratio). 1,25-(OH)(2) vit D decreased and intact PTH increased significantly, but 25-hydroxy vitamin D was unaffected.
450 14730514 Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and osteocalcin levels generally decrease after transplantation.
451 14730514 Alkaline phosphatase and urinary collagen cross-links are unpredictable.
452 15040606 Bilirubin, alkaline phosphatase, prothrombin time, and APTT stayed within normal range.
453 15050907 Randomization was stratified according to baseline plasma total alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and previous bisphosphonate treatment (yes or no).
454 15050907 In previously treated patients, alendronate resulted in remission in 11/14 (79%) subjects compared with 2/14 (14%) for pamidronate (P < 0.001), with a significantly (P < 0.001) greater reduction in both ALP and DPD/creatinine ratio.
455 15133247 Biochemical parameters for liver function: serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and alanine transaminase (ALP) activities, were evaluated.
456 15164161 The clinical significance of serum osteocalcin and N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen in predialysis patients with chronic renal failure.
457 15164161 Serum levels of three bone formation markers-bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), osteocalcin (OC), and N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (PINP)-and three bone resorption markers-type I collagen cross-linked N-telopeptide (NTx), deoxypyridinoline (DPD), and pyridinoline (PYD)-were measured simultaneously in 85 predialysis CRF patients (serum creatinine 3.5 +/- 1.9 mg/dl, 61.0 +/- 10.9 years old, 54 males and 31 females, 36 diabetics and 49 nondiabetics) to examine the relationships between these markers and bone mineral density (BMD) of the distal radius, as measured by peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT).
458 15239020 Shear stress also increased differentiated cellular properties such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity (121 % of control), fibronectin (FN) and fibronectin receptor (FNR) expression (290 % and 200 %, respectively).
459 15239021 In a prospective randomized trial on 400 rats of the Dark Agouti (DA) and Lewis strain, different functional laboratory parameters such as total calcium, intact parathyroid hormone, phosphate, 1.25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and alkaline phosphatase were measured under a standard and low calcium diet over a period of 40 weeks.
460 15336614 There were no effects of active or placebo therapy on total alkaline phosphatase, bone-specific alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, or beta C-telopeptide of type 1 collagen (beta-CTX).
461 15352382 Experimental diabetes did not influence the lactase and leucine aminopeptidase activity in the intestine, but the activity of alkaline phosphatase was increased.
462 15362497 The plasma level of alanine aminotranferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) increased significantly after the onset of diabetes.
463 15362497 However, the plant extract failed to reduce the increased blood level of GGT and ALP in diabetic rats.
464 15525588 Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) increase peripheral tissue insulin sensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by activating the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma).
465 15525588 Decreased osteoblast number and activity due to increased apoptotic death of osteoblasts and osteocytes was apparent while osteoclast parameters and serum levels of osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase activity, and leptin were unaltered by rosiglitazone treatment.
466 15552273 Significant factors affecting insulin were age, gender, body mass index and glucose, in addition to alanine aminotransferase and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in men, triglycerides and oral contraceptive use in women, and alkaline phosphatase in girls.
467 15591647 Blood levels of glucose, urea, uric acid and creatinine, plasma levels of albumin and albumin/globulin ratio and the activities of diagnostic marker enzymes aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase (gamma-GT) in plasma, liver and kidney were markedly altered in STZ diabetic rats.
468 15616896 Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and tartarate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activities showed significant six- and twofold increases, respectively, in diabetic rats.
469 15869925 While osteoblastic markers, osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase, were depressed to a comparable degree in both groups, urinary calcium/creatinine ratio and hydroxyproline excretion were significantly greater in diabetic ketoacidosis.
470 15885927 Moreover, a significant decrease in the activities of serum enzymes like alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase and HMGCoA reductase activity in the liver was observed.
471 15905321 Decreased bone mass, osteoporosis, and increased fracture rates are common skeletal complications in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM; type I diabetes).
472 15905321 IDDM develops from little or no insulin production and is marked by elevated blood glucose levels and weight loss.
473 15905321 However, osteocalcin mRNA (a marker of late-stage osteoblast differentiation) and dynamic parameters of bone formation were decreased in diabetic tibias, whereas osteoblast number and runx2 and alkaline phosphatase mRNA levels did not differ.
474 15905321 This is supported by increased expression of adipocyte markers [peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma2, resistin, and adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (alphaP2)] and the appearance of lipid-dense adipocytes in diabetic tibias.
475 15978265 The bone formation markers, bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP), intact osteocalcin (OC), and N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (PINP), and the bone resorption markers, deoxypyridinoline (DPD), pyridinoline (PYD), and beta-crossLaps (beta-CTx) were measured in serum from 137 HD patients.
476 15986869 We selected 20 NAFLD patients with abnormal transaminase levels, with both alkaline phosphatase >500 U/L and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase >250 U/L.
477 16045816 Left ventricular tissue was processed for enzyme catalytic histochemistry of capillary alkaline phosphatase (AlPh), dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV), and endothelial NO synthase/NADPH-diaphorase (NOS) and for ultrastructural analysis.
478 16045816 Quantitative evaluation demonstrated reduction of reaction product intensity of AlPh, DPP and NOS by 49.50%, 74.36%, 20.05% in diabetic and 62.93%, 82.71%, 37.65% in hypertensive rats.
479 16126724 Dual specificity MAPK phosphatase 3 activates PEPCK gene transcription and increases gluconeogenesis in rat hepatoma cells.
480 16126724 In liver, insulin suppresses gluconeogenesis by inhibiting the transcriptions of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) genes.
481 16126724 To search for novel genes that negatively regulate insulin signaling in controlling metabolic pathways, we screened a cDNA library derived from the white adipose tissue of ob/ob mice using a reporter system comprised of the PEPCK promoter placed upstream of the alkaline phosphatase gene.
482 16126724 The mitogen-activated dual specificity protein kinase phosphatase 3 (MKP-3) was identified as a candidate gene that antagonized insulin suppression on PEPCK gene transcription from this screen.
483 16126724 In this study, we showed that MKP-3 was expressed in insulin-responsive tissues and that its expression was markedly elevated in the livers of insulin-resistant obese mice.
484 16126724 In addition, MKP-3 can activate PEPCK promoter in synergy with dexamethasone in hepatoma cells.
485 16126724 Furthermore, ectopic expression of MKP-3 in hepatoma cells by adenoviral infection increased the expression of PEPCK and G6Pase genes and led to elevated glucose production.
486 16126724 Therefore, dysregulation of MKP-3 expression and/or function in liver may contribute to the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and type II diabetes.
487 16198619 Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear transcription factor that comprises the primary molecular target for thiazolidinedione (TZD) insulin-sensitizing drugs.
488 16198619 Thus, TZDs have been shown to reduce plasma levels of the chemokine, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), the anti-fibrinolytic protein, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), the endothelial cell adhesion molecules, e-selectin and inter-cellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), the leucocyte-activating molecule, CD40L, and the tissue-remodeling enzyme, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9).
489 16198619 Further tangible evidence of a reduction by TZDs of systemic inflammation in patients with the classical metabolic syndrome stems from falls in the white blood cell count, P-selectin-positive platelets and in the acute-phase inflammatory proteins, C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A and fibrinogen.
490 16198619 Here, these drugs improve insulin sensitivity for glucose metabolism, reduce hyperinsulinemia, hepatic steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis, and lower the circulating levels of liver transaminases (ALT, AST), alkaline phosphatase and gamma glutamyl transferase.
491 16249437 Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is emerging as a component of the metabolic syndrome, although it is not known whether markers of NAFLD, including elevated concentrations of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALK), predict the development of metabolic syndrome.
492 16249437 Our objective was to investigate the associations of elevated AST, ALT, and other liver markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP), with incident National Cholesterol Education Program-defined metabolic syndrome among 633 subjects in the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study who were free of metabolic syndrome at baseline.
493 16249437 In separate logistic regression models adjusting for age, sex, ethnicity, clinic, and alcohol consumption, subjects in the upper quartiles of ALT, ALK, and CRP were at significantly increased risk of incident metabolic syndrome compared with those in the lowest quartile: ALT, odds ratio 2.50 (95% CI 1.38-4.51); ALK, 2.28 (1.24-4.20); and CRP, 1.33 (1.09-1.63).
494 16298637 Serial slides were stained for glucagon and insulin with the alkaline phosphatase and alkaline phosphate method at 1 to 2 days after transplantation islets with strong insulin expression were found within the portal vein branches.
495 16306358 They continue to express the proximal tubular markers CD13/aminopeptidase-N, sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 2, and alkaline phosphatase through up to six subsequent subcultures in a similar way to human proximal cells isolated from renal biopsies.
496 16306358 In a hyperglycemic environment, HEPTECs isolated from patients with type 2 diabetes expressed significantly more SGLT2 and the facilitative glucose transporter GLUT2 than cells from healthy individuals.
497 16436663 Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that relative gene expression levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-9) and transforming growth factor-beta1 were increased in parallel with calcification.
498 16436663 Gene expression of core binding factor alpha-1, an osteoblast-specific transcription factor, increased in parallel with elastin calcification and attained approximately 9.5-fold higher expression at 21 days compared to 3 days after implantation.
499 16436663 Similarly, mRNA levels of the bone markers osteopontin and alkaline phosphatase also increased progressively, but osteocalcin levels remained unchanged.
500 16462893 BMSC proliferation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were studied after 3 and 7 d of culture, respectively; the area stained for collagen and mineralized nodules was studied after 28 d of culture.
501 16462893 With high concentrations of glucose, BMSC proliferation, ALP activity, the number of nodules formed, and the area stained for collagen were greatly reduced.
502 16462893 Insulin treatment alone was able to increase [3H]-thymidine uptake or ALP activity, whereas both insulin and estradiol were able to increase the number of mineralized nodules and the area stained for collagen and mineralization.
503 16564524 Metformin also promoted osteoblastic differentiation: it increased type-I collagen production in both cell lines and stimulated alkaline phosphatase activity in MC3T3E1 osteoblasts.
504 16564524 Metformin induced activation and redistribution of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (P-ERK) in a transient manner, and dose-dependently stimulated the expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthases (e/iNOS).
505 16564524 These results show for the first time a direct osteogenic effect of metformin on osteoblasts in culture, which could be mediated by activation/redistribution of ERK-1/2 and induction of e/iNOS.
506 16619259 Specifically, chronic hyperglycemia increases alkaline phosphatase activity and expression and decreases osteocalcin, MMP-13, VEGF and GAPDH expression.

512 16644609 Multivariate analysis identified alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and immoglobulin G levels as independent predictors of relapse.
513 16644609 Predictive factors included lactate dehydrogenase, albumin, and fasting blood glucose levels for diabetes mellitus, alkaline phosphatase and C-reactive protein for psychiatric/ neurologic symptoms, and autoimmune hepatitis score and lactate dehydrogenase for circulatory symptoms.
514 16649554 Oral administration of a bark extract of Helicteres isora (100, 200 mg/kg) in STZ diabetic rats caused a significant increase in body weight, hepatic hexokinase activity and significant decrease in hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase, serum acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH).
515 16731441 We report a case series of 26 patients with frank osteomalacia (pseudo fractures on X-rays, elevated serum total alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone, normal/low serum calcium and phosphorus, and low serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D) who were followed-up for changes in BMD during treatment using dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
516 16741951 Our results revealed that reduced Nurr1 expression, using Nurr1 siRNA in MC3T3-E1 cells, affected the expression of osteoblast differentiation marker genes, osteocalcin (OCN) and collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1), as measured by quantitative real-time PCR.
517 16741951 The activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), another osteoblast differentiation marker gene, was also decreased in Nurr1 siRNA-treated MC3T3-E1 cells.
518 16741951 In addition, Nurr1 overexpression increased OCN and COL1A1 expression.
519 16831933 High-fat diets promote vascular calcification in male low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR)-deficient mice, with concomitant upregulation of aortic BMP2 and Msx2 gene expression.
520 16831933 We studied CMV-Msx2Tg+;LDLR+ transgenic mice (C57Bl/6), a model previously demonstrated to recapitulate features of Msx2 signaling during craniosynostosis.
521 16831933 Gene expression studies revealed that while Msx2 was expressed primarily in adventitial cells, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expression and calcification occurred primarily in the tunica media.
522 16831933 Msx2 promotes the elaboration of a pro-osteogenic milieu by upregulating expression of Wingless type (Wnt) ligands while downregulating the canonical antagonist, Dickkopf (Dkk1).
523 16998616 In male rats fed RD, primary cultures of osteoblasts without hormone addition to the culture medium showed that alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was similar in the Cohen diabetic rats (both CDr and CDs) to that of the original Sabra strain.
524 16998616 The addition of the hormones to the culture medium did not change ALP activity or collagen synthesis in the male-derived osteoblasts, but increased mineralization in all strains.
525 16998616 HSD increased the basal activity of ALP in the CDr but not in the CDs rats, and decreased the rate of collagen synthesis in both CDr and CDs (diabetic) animals.
526 17052049 Serum osteocalcin (p<0.0001), bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) (p<0.05) and carboxyterminal telopeptide (CTx) (p<0.05) were higher in the control group than in diabetics.
527 17056676 We examined the effects of insulin on calcifying smooth muscle cells in vitro and measured the expression of the bone-related molecule osteoprotegerin (OPG).
528 17056676 Histochemistry was used for determination of alkaline phosphatase (ALP).
529 17056676 Bone sialoprotein (BSP) and OPG mRNA expressions were done by RT-PCR. beta-Glycerophosphate was able to induce calcification in human smooth muscle cells from a series of donors after variable time in culture.
530 17056676 Calcified cells expressed ALP and BSP activity in high levels.
531 17056676 Effects of insulin and modulations by OPG on the calcification process in arterial cells may play a role in the development of calcifications as part of the diabetic macroangiopathy.
532 17058711 Low adiponectin levels are associated with elevated plasma alanine aminotransferase, a marker of reduced hepatic insulin sensitivity and a risk factor for type 2 diabetes.

543 17058711 Insulin and adiponectin are measured using enzyme-linked immunoassay techniques and insulin resistance is determined using the homeostatic model assessment method.
544 17058711 Diabetic patients showed significantly lower levels of serum adiponectin than did the non-diabetic subjects, whereas levels of alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase were similar in both groups.
545 17058711 While female non-diabetic subjects showed higher serum adiponectin levels than did female diabetic patients, alanine aminotransferase level did not differ (P>0.05).
546 17058711 No significant relationship was seen between adiponectin and alanine aminotransferase in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects (P>0.05).
547 17058711 Serum adiponectin levels were higher in non-diabetic subjects but there was no significant correlation between adiponectin and alanine aminotransferase in both groups of subjects.
548 17151319 The plasma levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and gamma-glutamyl transferase (gamma-GT) were significantly increased after the onset of diabetes.
549 17167536 Serum calcium (Ca2+), phosphorus (P), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), vertebral ALP, collagen, and glycosaminoglycans were estimated.
550 17167536 Serum ALP and TRAP activity increased in the ovary-intact and ovariectomized diabetic rats.
551 17167536 In the vertebrae, TRAP activity was elevated as a result of diabetes, but this was prevented by insulin or estradiol.
552 17170223 Phenotypic differences between MIN-6(L, low passage) and MIN-6(H, high passage) were determined by ELISA (assessing GSIS and cellular (pro)insulin content), proliferation assays, phase contrast light microscopy and analysis of alkaline phosphatase expression.
553 17177144 Serum soluble factors induce the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity and transforming growth factor-beta signal in osteoblastic cells in the patient with hepatitis C-associated osteosclerosis.
554 17177144 We examined the effects of serum of the HCAO patient on the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta-Smad signaling in mouse osteoblastic cells.
555 17177144 The serum from the HCAO patient increased the levels of TGF-beta and Smad3 expression in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells, compared with the control subject.
556 17177144 Moreover, the serum from the HCAO patient significantly augmented TGF-beta-induced transcriptional activity with luciferase assay using 3TP-Lux with a Smad3-specific responsive element.
557 17177144 In addition, the serum from the HCAO patient significantly stimulated the MTT intensity, the level of proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression, a proliferation marker, and ALP activity in MC3T3-E1 cells, compared with that from the control subject.
558 17177144 Serum soluble factors induce the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity and transforming growth factor-beta signal in osteoblastic cells in the patient with hepatitis C-associated osteosclerosis.
559 17177144 We examined the effects of serum of the HCAO patient on the proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta-Smad signaling in mouse osteoblastic cells.
560 17177144 The serum from the HCAO patient increased the levels of TGF-beta and Smad3 expression in osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells, compared with the control subject.
561 17177144 Moreover, the serum from the HCAO patient significantly augmented TGF-beta-induced transcriptional activity with luciferase assay using 3TP-Lux with a Smad3-specific responsive element.
562 17177144 In addition, the serum from the HCAO patient significantly stimulated the MTT intensity, the level of proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression, a proliferation marker, and ALP activity in MC3T3-E1 cells, compared with that from the control subject.
563 17273658 We determined BMD in the femoral neck and at the L2-L4 level (DEXA) and serum levels of glucose, total glycated hemoglobin (HbA1), total and ionic calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, follicle-stimulating hormone, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OH-D), insulin-like growth factor I (IGFI), osteocalcin, procollagen type I C propeptide, as well as urinary levels of deoxypyridinoline and creatinine.
564 17340225 Insulin-like effects of visfatin on human osteoblasts.
565 17340225 Visfatin binds to and activates the insulin receptor (IR), thereby exerting insulin-mimetic effects in various cell lines.
566 17340225 The expression and tyrosine phosphorylation of IR, IR substrate-1 (IRS-1), and IRS-2 were determined by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting.
567 17340225 Real-time quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used for determining alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin, and type I collagen mRNA expression.
568 17340225 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and radioimmunoassay were used for measuring ALP activity, osteocalcin secretion, and type I collagen production.
569 17340225 We found that visfatin induced tyrosine phosphorylation of IR, IRS-1, and IRS-2.
570 17340225 Moreover, the effects of visfatin - glucose uptake, proliferation, and type I collagen enhancement of cultured human osteoblast-like cells - bore a close resemblance to those of insulin and were inhibited by hydroxy-2-naphthalenylmethylphosphonic acid tris-acetoxymethyl ester, a specific inhibitor of IR tyrosine kinase activity.
571 17340225 We also unexpectedly found that visfatin downregulated osteocalcin secretion from human osteoblast-like cells.
572 17340225 These data indicate that the regulation of glucose uptake, proliferation, and type I collagen production by visfatin in human osteoblasts involves IR phosphorylation, the same signal-transduction pathway used by insulin.
573 17360690 Compared with control mice, plasma levels of glycerol and triglycerides were markedly increased in AQP9(-/-) mice, whereas glucose, urea, free fatty acids, alkaline phosphatase, and cholesterol were not significantly different.
574 17360690 Obese Lepr(db)/Lepr(db) AQP9(-/-) and obese Lepr(db)/Lepr(db) AQP9(+/-) mice showed similar body weight, whereas the glycerol levels in obese Lepr(db)/Lepr(db) AQP9(-/-) mice were dramatically increased.
575 17360690 Consistent with a role of AQP9 in hepatic uptake of glycerol, blood glucose levels were significantly reduced in Lepr(db)/Lepr(db) AQP9(-/-) mice compared with Lepr(db)/Lepr(db) AQP9(+/-) in response to 3 h of fasting.
576 17636394 Sixty days after induced DM, blood samples were collected for glucose, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and bilirubin measures.
577 17707984 CLA supplementation reduced liver lipid concentration of fa/fa rats by 62% in concurrence with improved liver function (lower serum alanine aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase) and favorable modification of the serum lipoprotein profile (reduced VLDL and LDL and elevated HDL) compared with controlfed fa/fa rats.
578 17803054 Most changes found in dolphins during the fasting state--including significantly increased glucose, platelets, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, and alkaline phosphatase; significantly decreased serum uric acid; and shifts toward a metabolic acidodic state (significantly increased blood CO2)--have been previously associated with diabetes mellitus in humans.
579 17877290 The continued use of leaf and root extract for 28 days produced significant hypoglycemic effects; also there was a decrease in serum glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride, urea and creatinine levels and enzyme activities (alkaline phosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase).
580 17906411 [Pyrophosphate and mineralization (TNSALP, PC-1, ANK)].
581 17906411 Pyrophosphate inhibits mineralization, and tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase (TNSALP) increases phosphate concentration by cleaving pyrophosphate, which is important for the regulation of mineralization in bone.
582 17906411 Moreover, PC-1 (plasma cell membrane glycoprotein-1) on matrix vesicle and osteoblast plasma membrane, as well as ANK (ankylosis) on osteoblast plasma membrane induce extracellular pyrophosphate.
583 17906411 The pyrophosphate production by PC-1 and ANK and TNSALP, as well as some mineralization-inhibiting factors, (for example osteopontin) induced by these molecules, is considered to maintain the normal process of mineralization.
584 17916452 Increased cathepsin K and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase expression in bone of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
585 17916452 The effect of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) on bone metabolism was evaluated using the streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat 1 week after the induction of diabetes.
586 17916452 The levels of serum osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in the distal femur of the diabetic rats were significantly reduced to about 40% and 70% of the control levels, respectively.
587 17916452 The decrease in the expression osteocalcin was observed in distal femur of the diabetic rats, although the level of ALP mRNA was unchanged.
588 17916452 The activity and the mRNA level of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) increased to 1.5- and 2.3-fold the control level, respectively, in distal femur of the diabetic rats.
589 17916452 These results suggest that IDDM contributes to bone loss through changes in gene expression of TRAP and cathepsin K in osteoclasts as well as osteocalcin in osteoblasts resulting in increased bone resorptive activity and decreased bone formation.
590 18022929 Urinary NAG, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), alkaline phosphatase (AP) activities, urea, creatinine, and albumin, with levels of serum glucose and creatinine and whole blood glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured in 32 diabetes mellitus patients and 25 healthy subjects (controls).
591 18037364 At 36 weeks of age, the rats were killed, and we evaluated bone formation and the effect of insulin on bone formation, blood and urine analyses, bone mineral density (BMD), histomorphometry, and mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN).
592 18095236 She was found to be severely hypercalcaemic and exhibited features suggestive of parathyroid carcinoma (palpable neck mass, extremely high parathyroid hormone, high alkaline phosphatase, concomitant presence of renal disease and skeletal involvement).
593 18202319 TG2(-/-) SMCs lost the capacity for P(i) donor-induced formation of multicellular bone-like nodules and for increased expression of the type III sodium-dependent P(i) cotransporter Pit-1 and certain osteoblast and chondrocyte genes (tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase, the osteoblast master transcription factor runx2, and chondrocyte-restricted aggrecan), and for P(i) donor- and bone morphogenetic protein-2-induced calcification.
594 18202319 Uniquely in TG2(-/-) SMCs, P(i) donor treatment increased expression of the physiological SMC chondro-osseous differentiation and calcification inhibitors osteoprotegerin, matrix Gla protein, and osteopontin.
595 18202319 TG2 expression also drove P(i)-stimulated calcification of mouse aortic ring organ cultures, which was suppressed by the TG2 catalytic site-specific inhibitor Boc-DON-Gln-Ile-Val-OMe (10 micromol/L).
596 18202319 Our results suggest that TG2 release in injured arteries is critical for programming chondro-osseous SMC differentiation and calcification in response to increased P(i) and bone morphogenetic protein-2.
597 18210765 Metformin significantly reduced fasting insulin (p=0.04), body weight (p=0.026), body mass index (BMI) (p=0.022), waist circumference (p=0.022) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (gamma-GT) (p=0.039), while rosiglitazone decreased blood pressure (systolic: p = 0.05, mean: p = 0.03) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (p =0.001) compared to baseline values.
598 18273753 In two osteoblast-like cell lines (UMR106 and MC3T3E1), AGE-modified albumin induced cell death, caspase-3 activity, altered intracellular oxidative stress and inhibited alkaline phosphatase activity.
599 18293283 An asymptomatic 70-year-old Hispanic woman with type 2 diabetes was found in 2004 to have an AST of 132 U/L, ALT 146 U/L, alkaline phosphatase 1107 U/L, total serum bilirubin 3.5 mg/dL, and albumin 2.9 g/dL.
600 18293283 Serum IgG and IgA, but NOT IgM, were elevated.
601 18294711 Bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP)/DPD ratio was 1.5 in controls compared to 0.53 in HFP.
602 18580021 Serum intact PTH (iPTH), calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and magnesium (Mg) were measured.
603 18599037 Compared with control incubation, 2-deoxy-d-ribose significantly (P<0.05) inhibited alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, collagen content, and calcium deposition at the concentration of 20 mM.
604 18599037 Myricetin significantly (P<0.05) increased cell survival, ALP activity, collagen, osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, and calcium deposition and decreased MDA, protein carbonyl, and advanced oxidation protein products contents of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in the presence of 20 mM 2-deoxy-d-ribose.
605 18635165 An optimum dose of 3-HMX (40 mg/kg body weight) was orally administered for 45 days to streptozotocin-diabetic rats for the assessment of glucose, insulin, hemoglobin (Hb), glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), hepatic glycogen, and activities of carbohydrate metabolizing enzymes, such as glucokinase, glucose 6-phosphatase, fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and hepatic marker enzymes, such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gammaglutamyl transferase (GGT) in normal and streptozotocin-diabetic rats. 3-HMX at 40 mg dose produced similar effects on all biochemical parameters studied as that of glibenclamide, a standard drug.
606 18665784 We examined the relationships between metabolic control, IGF-1 and its binding proteins (IGFBP-1, -3, -5), and bone mass in T1DM in adolescent girls 12-15 yr of age with T1DM (n = 11) and matched controls (n = 10).
607 18665784 Serum GH, IGFBP-1 and -5, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), glucose, and urine magnesium levels were higher and IGF-1 values were lower in T1DM compared with controls (p < 0.05).
608 18665784 Poor diabetes control predicted lower IGF-1 (r(2) = 0.21) and greater IGFBP-1 (r(2) = 0.39), IGFBP-5 (r(2) = 0.38), and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP; r(2) = 0.41, p < 0.05).
609 18675532 The diabetic rats orally treated with resveratrol (5 mg kg(-)(1)b.w d(-)(1)) for 30 days resulted in significant (p<0.05) decrease in the levels of blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood urea, serum uric acid, serum creatinine and diminished activities of pathophysiological enzymes such as aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).
610 18675532 The antihyperglycemic nature of resveratrol is also evidenced from the improvement in the levels of plasma insulin and hemoglobin.
611 18716364 We measured blood counts, blood chemistry, bone alkaline phosphatase, intact-PTH, interleukin-6, osteoprotegerin (OPG), hemoglobin A1c, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and fetuin-A.
612 18716364 Multiple regression analyses showed that low albumin and high OPG were associated with high CACS.
613 18716364 Serum OPG was positively associated with high CACS and can be a useful screening tool for severe coronary calcification, whereas no association between fetuin-A and CACS was found.
614 19007766 In addition, oral administration of costunolide (20 mg/kg bw) significantly decreased glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL cholesterol and at the same time markedly increased plasma insulin, tissue glycogen, HDL cholesterol and serum protein.
615 19007766 Also costunolide restored the altered plasma enzyme (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotrasferase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase) levels to near normal.
616 19007766 Costunolide might have stimulated the beta islets to secrete insulin by inhibiting the expression of nitric oxide synthase.
617 19018454 As for bone/mineral parameters, BMD increase at the lumbar spine was not significantly related to serum levels of calcium, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and alkaline phosphatase or urinary levels of deoxypiridinoline and calcium excretion.
618 19101228 The relation between traditional cardiovascular risk factors (i.e., age; gender; dialysis vintage; history of diabetes; means of the previous 3 years of weekly predialysis blood pressure values and hemoglobin levels; means of monthly values of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, uric acid; and albumin; and means of quarterly measurements of parathyroid hormone and lipids) and fetuin-A levels and CACS was explored using univariate analyses.
619 19170143 The patients were visited monthly and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglyceride, aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, urea and creatinine levels were determined at the beginning and after 2 months.
620 19219381 Effect of GLP-1 treatment on bone turnover in normal, type 2 diabetic, and insulin-resistant states.
621 19219381 Since GLP-1 is decreased in the latter condition, we evaluated some bone characteristics in streptozotocin-induced type 2 diabetic (T2D) and fructose-induced insulin-resistant (IR) rat models compared to normal (N) and the effect of GLP-1 or saline (control) treatment (3 days by osmotic pump).
622 19219381 Compared to N, plasma glucose and insulin were, respectively, higher and lower in T2D; osteocalcin (OC) and tartrate-resistant alkaline phosphatase 5b were lower; phosphate in IR showed a tendency to be higher; PTH was not different in T2D and IR; all parameters were unchanged after GLP-1 infusion.
623 19219381 Bone OC, osteoprotegerin (OPG) and RANKL mRNA were lower in T2D and IR; GLP-1 increased OC and OPG in all groups and RANKL in T2D.
624 19219381 These findings show an insulin-independent anabolic effect of GLP-1 and suggest that GLP-1 could be a useful therapeutic agent for improving the deficient bone formation and bone structure associated with glucose intolerance.
625 19227470 Changes in the myocardial capillary network were examined using the double-staining enzymatic method for alkaline phosphatase (AP) and dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPPIV) This method allows the identification of the arteriolar (AP-containing) and the venular (DPPIV-containing) portions of the capillary network.
626 19271021 Compared to nondiabetic rats, liver function tests and histological changes of liver revealed exaggerated liver injury in diabetic rats caused by ATDs which was evident by 5- to 8-fold increases in serum levels of marker enzymes (aspartate and alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase) and 1- to 2-fold increases in bilirubin accompanied by a 2-fold decrease in total serum proteins, intense fatty and inflammatory infiltrations, necrosis and fibrosis.
627 19274687 A significant reduction in the serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels of diabetic rats following OA treatment was also observed.
628 19336918 In addition, treatment with kaempferol resulted in a significant elevation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, collagen content, and mineralization in the cells.
629 19415676 An intracellular role of the S100 family member S100A4 (Mts1) to suppress mineralization has been described in pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells.
630 19415676 RANKL-treated RAW 264.7 cell proliferation and TRAP activity were significantly inhibited by S100, and the number and size of TRAP-positive multinucleated cells were decreased.
631 19415676 In contrast to the direct inhibitory effect of S100, the conditioned media promoted RAW 264.7 cell proliferation and TRAP activity, with a trend toward increased TRAP-positive multinucleated cells.
632 19415676 S100 treatment of the MC3T3-E1 cells for 14 days did not significantly affect alkaline phosphatase, M-CSF, or OPG gene expression.
633 19423691 This process involves increased activity of alkaline phosphatase and increased expression of core binding factor alpha-1, a bone-specific transcription factor, with the subsequent induction of osteocalcin.
634 19423691 In addition, osteoblastic transformation of HSMCs provoked by elevated Pi (assessed by upregulation of core binding factor alpha-1, osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase activity) was diminished by ferritin/ferroxidase activity.
635 19423691 We conclude that induction of the HO-1/ferritin system prevents Pi-mediated calcification and osteoblastic differentiation of human smooth muscle cells mainly via the ferroxidase activity of ferritin.
636 19423691 This process involves increased activity of alkaline phosphatase and increased expression of core binding factor alpha-1, a bone-specific transcription factor, with the subsequent induction of osteocalcin.
637 19423691 In addition, osteoblastic transformation of HSMCs provoked by elevated Pi (assessed by upregulation of core binding factor alpha-1, osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase activity) was diminished by ferritin/ferroxidase activity.
638 19423691 We conclude that induction of the HO-1/ferritin system prevents Pi-mediated calcification and osteoblastic differentiation of human smooth muscle cells mainly via the ferroxidase activity of ferritin.
639 19468831 Efficacy of BDMCA was determined by evaluating blood glucose, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), hydroperoxides (HP), activities of marker enzymes alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx).
640 19564954 After the treatment period, urine sugar, blood glucose, haemoglobin (Hb), glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C), liver glycogen, serum and tissues lipids, serum and tissues proteins, liver glucose-6-phosphatase (G6P) and serum enzymes like aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels were determined.
641 19564954 The levels of urine sugar, blood glucose, HbA1C, G6P, AST, ALT, ACP, ALP, serum lipids except high density lipoprotein-bound cholesterol (HDL-c) and tissues like liver, kidney and heart lipids were significantly (p < 0.05) increased, however Hb, total protein, albumin, albumin:globulin (A:G) ratio, tissues protein and glycogen were significantly (p < 0.05) decreased in alloxan-induced diabetic rats.
642 19582775 Role of Smad3, acting independently of transforming growth factor-beta, in the early induction of Wnt-beta-catenin signaling by parathyroid hormone in mouse osteoblastic cells.
643 19582775 We showed previously that PTH interacts with the canonical Wnt-beta-catenin signaling pathway via the transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta signaling molecule, Smad3, to modulate osteoblast differentiation and apoptosis.
644 19582775 Here, we examined which actions of Smad3 are TGF-beta-independent in stimulating the osteoblast phenotype and PTH-induced Wnt-beta-catenin signaling.
645 19582775 For this, the TGF-beta receptor type 1 [activin receptor-like kinase (ALK5)] inhibitor (SB431542), and a Smad3 mutant in which the site normally phosphorylated by ALK5 is mutated from SSVS to AAVA, was used.
646 19582775 PTH induced total beta-catenin and reduced phosphorylated beta-catenin levels at 1, 6, and 24 h in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells.
647 19582775 Transient transfection of Smad3AAVA inhibited the PTH induction of total beta-catenin and reduction of phosphorylated beta-catenin levels at 6 and 24 h, but not at 1 h, indicating that the early effects occur independently of TGF-beta receptor signaling.
648 19582775 On the other hand, MC3T3-E1 cell clones in which Smad3AAVA was stably expressed demonstrated elevated beta-catenin levels, although alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and mineralization were unaltered.
649 19582775 In contrast, MC3T3-E1 cell clones in which wild-type Smad3 was stably expressed exhibited increased ALP activity and mineralization that were decreased by the ALK5 inhibitor, SB431542, although the beta-catenin levels induced in these cells were not modulated.
650 19582775 In conclusion, the present study indicates that PTH induces osteoblast beta-catenin levels via Smad3 independently of, and dependently on, TGF-beta in the early and later induction phases, respectively.
651 19586609 Blood was taken before and after treatment for plasma measurements; tibiae and femurs were collected for gene expression of bone markers (RT-PCR) and structure (microCT) analysis; we also measured the mRNA levels of LRP5 - an activator of the Wnt pathway - and those of DKK1 and sclerostin (SOST) - both blockers of LRP5 activity.
652 19586609 Compared to N-control, plasma glucose and insulin were respectively higher and lower in T2D; osteocalcin (OC) and tartrate-resistant alkaline phosphatase 5b (TRAP5b) were lower; after Ex-4, these turnover markers were further reduced in T2D and IR, while TRAP5b increased in N.
653 19586609 Bone OC, osteoprogeterin (OPG) and receptor activator of NF-kB ligand (RANKL) mRNA were lower in T2D and IR; Ex-4 increased OC in all groups and OPG in N and IR, reduced RANKL in N and T2D but increased it in IR; the LRP5/DKK1 and LRP5/SOST mRNA ratios were similarly decreased in T2D, but in IR, the latter ratio was reduced while the former was increased; after Ex-4, both ratios augmented in N, and that of LRP5/DKK1 tended to normalize in T2D and IR.
654 19589269 Using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and specific protein assays, it was demonstrated that rat aortic VSMCs incubated with AGEs exhibited an increased expression of the AGE receptor (RAGE) and typical bone proteins, such as osteopontin and alkaline phosphatase.
655 19594306 We found that metformin administration both in vivo and in vitro caused an increase in alkaline phosphatase activity, type I collagen synthesis, osteocalcin expression, and extracellular calcium deposition of BMPCs.
656 19594306 In conclusion, our results indicate that metformin causes an osteogenic effect both in vivo and in vitro, possibly mediated by Runx2/Cbfa1 and AMPK activation, suggesting a possible action of metformin in a shift toward the osteoblastic differentiation of BMPCs.
657 19628413 With 11 mmol/L glucose, cellular proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, the number of nodules formed, and calcium deposition in mineralized nodules were increased significantly; intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis were slightly reduced, although these reductions were not statistically significant.
658 19628413 Moreover, we assessed the gene expression levels of Runx2, IGF-1, and IGF-1R.
659 19628413 Eleven micromole per liter glucose stimulated Runx2 and IGF-1 expression; 44 mmol/L glucose inhibited Runx2, IGF-1, and IGF-1R expression.
660 19628413 Metformin stimulated the expression of Runx2 and IGF-1 in three glucose groups, but it did not affect IGF-1R.
661 19628413 Metformin not only significantly decreased intracellular ROS and apoptosis, but also had a direct osteogenic effect on osteoblasts at all glucose concentrations, which could be partially mediated via promotion of Runx2 and IGF-1 expression.
662 19641839 Serum osteocalcin/bone-specific alkaline phosphatase ratio is a predictor for the presence of vertebral fractures in men with type 2 diabetes.
663 19641839 We analyzed the relationships between bone markers (osteocalcin [OC], bone-specific alkaline phosphatase [BAP], urinary N-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type-I collagen) or BMD and HbA(1c), urinary C-peptide, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), parathyroid hormone, 1,25(OH)(2) vitamin D, and the presence of prevalent vertebral fractures.
664 19641839 Serum osteocalcin/bone-specific alkaline phosphatase ratio is a predictor for the presence of vertebral fractures in men with type 2 diabetes.
665 19641839 We analyzed the relationships between bone markers (osteocalcin [OC], bone-specific alkaline phosphatase [BAP], urinary N-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type-I collagen) or BMD and HbA(1c), urinary C-peptide, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), parathyroid hormone, 1,25(OH)(2) vitamin D, and the presence of prevalent vertebral fractures.
666 19662717 When compared with diabetic hyperlipid-emic rats, plasma TBARS and LOOH levels decreased, the activities of enzymic antioxidants (SOD, CAT, GPx) and plasma GSH levels increased in the S-Frf fed group.
667 19662717 The activities of plasma hepatic markers serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase, and levels of plasma urea, uric acid, creatinine, globulin, A/G ratio significantly decreased, whereas liver weight, total protein, and albumin increased.
668 19695236 In addition, oral administration of eremanthin (20mg/kg bw) significantly decreased glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)), serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol and at the same time markedly increased plasma insulin, tissue glycogen, HDL-cholesterol and serum protein.
669 19695236 Eremanthin also restored the altered plasma enzyme (aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, alkaline phosphatase and acid phosphatase) levels to near normal.
670 19751417 Bone mineral density, osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
671 19751417 The aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of osteopenia and the relationships between osteocalcin (OC), bone alkaline phosphatase (bALP), and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).

673 19751417 The aims of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of osteopenia and the relationships between osteocalcin (OC), bone alkaline phosphatase (bALP), and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
674 19764353 Compared with the diabetic (STZ-treated) controls, the diabetic-heatstroke rats displayed higher levels of body temperature, intracranial pressure, serum nitric oxide metabolite, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and dihydroxybenzoic acid, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase.

677 19797203 Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF) shedding was assessed by measuring the release of alkaline phosphatase (AP) in a stable HCEC line expressing HB-EGF-AP.
678 19797203 Activation of EGFR, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) was determined by Western blot analysis.
679 19797203 LL-37 induced HB-EGF-AP release and EGFR activation in a dose-dependent manner.
680 19797203 LL-37 prolonged EGFR signaling in response to wounding.
681 19797203 LL-37 enhanced the closure of a scratch wound in cultured HCECs and partially rescued HG-attenuated wound healing in an EGFR- and a PI3K-dependent manner and restored HG-impaired EGFR signaling in cultured porcine corneas.
682 19797203 LL-37 is a tonic factor promoting EGFR signaling and enhancing epithelial wound healing in normal and high glucose conditions.
683 19915165 High glucose potentiates collagen synthesis and bone morphogenetic protein-2-induced early osteoblast gene expression in rat spinal ligament cells.
684 19915165 Using these cells, high glucose stimulated the synthesis of type I collagen and significantly potentiated expression of early osteoblast genes (Runx2; alkaline phosphatase, ALP; and osteopontin, OP) induced by bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2).
685 19915165 Consistent with these observations, an inhibitor of p38 augmented the potentiation of high glucose on BMP-2-induced early osteogenic gene expression, whereas the PKC inhibitor repressed the effect of high glucose on type I collagen synthesis of the cells.
686 19915165 In conclusion, high glucose, via production of reactive oxygen species, subsequent activation of PKC, and inhibition of p38, enhances type I collagen synthesis and expression of early osteogenesis genes induced by BMP-2 in rat spinal ligament cells.
687 19924377 MSC cultured in osteogenic medium increased expression of osteonectin, Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX-2), osteocalcin, and alkaline phosphatase.
688 19924377 Additionally, the effect of HO-1 on osteoblasts appears different to that seen in adipocyte stem cells.
689 19924377 Moreover, glucose (30 mM) inhibited osteoblast differentiation, as evidenced by decreased bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2, osteonectin, osteocalcin, and osteoprotegerin (OPG).
690 19924377 Increased HO-1 expression increased the levels of osteonectin, OPG, and BMP-2.
691 19924377 Inhibition of HO activity prevented the increase in osteonectin and potentiated the decrease of osteocalcin and OPG in cells exposed to high glucose levels.
692 19924377 Furthermore, targeting HO-1 expression increased pAMPK and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and restored osteoblastic markers.

694 20004646 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha increases alkaline phosphatase expression in vascular smooth muscle cells via MSX2 induction.
695 20004646 TNF-alpha increased the expression of osteogenic marker genes including RUNX2, osterix, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and bone sialoprotein, and it also promoted matrix mineralization in VSMCs.
696 20004646 In addition, TNF-alpha enhanced MSX2 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner.
697 20004646 MSX2 over-expression alone induced ALP expression, whereas knockdown of MSX2 with small interfering RNA completely blocked TNF-alpha-induced ALP expression.
698 20004646 New protein synthesis was dispensable for MSX2 induction by TNF-alpha, and the inhibition of NF-kappaB by BAY-11-7082 or by dominant negative IkappaBalpha abolished the TNF-alpha-directed induction of MSX2 expression.
699 20004646 In conclusion, our study suggests that TNF-alpha directly induces MSX2 expression through the NF-kappaB pathway, which in turn induces expression of ALP, a key molecule in mineralization, in VSMCs.
700 20004646 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha increases alkaline phosphatase expression in vascular smooth muscle cells via MSX2 induction.
701 20004646 TNF-alpha increased the expression of osteogenic marker genes including RUNX2, osterix, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and bone sialoprotein, and it also promoted matrix mineralization in VSMCs.
702 20004646 In addition, TNF-alpha enhanced MSX2 expression in a dose- and time-dependent manner.
703 20004646 MSX2 over-expression alone induced ALP expression, whereas knockdown of MSX2 with small interfering RNA completely blocked TNF-alpha-induced ALP expression.
704 20004646 New protein synthesis was dispensable for MSX2 induction by TNF-alpha, and the inhibition of NF-kappaB by BAY-11-7082 or by dominant negative IkappaBalpha abolished the TNF-alpha-directed induction of MSX2 expression.
705 20004646 In conclusion, our study suggests that TNF-alpha directly induces MSX2 expression through the NF-kappaB pathway, which in turn induces expression of ALP, a key molecule in mineralization, in VSMCs.
706 20007694 The insulin-like growth factor-1 binding protein acid-labile subunit alters mesenchymal stromal cell fate.
707 20007694 Age-related osteoporosis is accompanied by an increase in marrow adiposity and a reduction in serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and the binding proteins that stabilize IGF-1.
708 20007694 To determine the relationship between these proteins and bone marrow adiposity, we evaluated the adipogenic potential of marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from mice with decreased serum IGF-1 due to knockdown of IGF-1 production by the liver or knock-out of the binding proteins.
709 20007694 We found that expression of the late adipocyte differentiation marker peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma was increased in marrow isolated from ALSKO mice.
710 20007694 MSCs from ALSKO mice also exhibited decreased alkaline-phosphatase positive colony size in cultures that were stimulated with osteoblast differentiation media.
711 20007694 These osteoblast-like cells from ALSKO mice failed to induce osteoclastogenesis of control cells in co-culture assays, indicating that impairment of IGF-1 complex formation with ALS in bone marrow alters cell fate, leading to increased adipogenesis.
712 20020468 The results showed that induction of HO-1 inhibited the maturation of osteoblasts including mineralized bone nodule formation, alkaline phosphatase activity and decreased mRNA expression of several differentiation markers such as alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and RUNX2.
713 20020468 HO-1 can be induced by H(2)O(2), lipopolysaccharide and inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha and IL-1beta in osteoblasts and also in STZ-induced diabetic mice.
714 20045535 Multiple regression analysis adjusted for age, duration of diabetes, sex, body height, body weight, waist circumference, serum creatinine, and hemoglobin A(1c) showed that serum total adiponectin was still significantly and positively correlated with percentage change in FN-BMD (r = 0.65, P < .01).
715 20045535 On the other hand, no significant relationships were found between serum levels of hemoglobin A(1c), pentosidine, bone formation markers (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin), or a bone resorption marker (urinary N-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type-I collagen) vs percentage change in BMD at any site.
716 20101423 Alkaline phosphatase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) were negatively correlated but iron markers were positively correlated with bone structural and formation variables.
717 20122920 Glycosylated haemoglobin, serum cholesterol, triglycerides, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, globulin, bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase, urea and uric acid were decreased significantly after B2 treatment.
718 20178001 E-2 has been in culture for over 6 months and has been shown to possess typical features of a pluripotent hESC line including expression of stem cell surface markers (SSEA4, TRA-160, and integrin alpha-6), intracellular alkaline phosphatase, and pluripotency gene markers, OCT4 and NANOG.
719 20213600 On the other hand, alendronate did not affect the levels of ANK, osteopontin and matrix Gla protein mRNA in both 7- and 21-day cultures.
720 20213600 As for the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), an important positive regulator of mineralization in osteoblasts, alendronate enhanced the levels of ALP mRNA and protein at 10 (-7)-10 (-5) M.
721 20213600 The regulation of PC-1, osteocalcin and ALP by alendronate might play some role in these effects.
722 20307516 After the experimental period of 30 days, the pathophysiological markers such as serum bilirubin and hepatic aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were studied in addition to hepatic TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-6, NF-kappaB p65 and nitric oxide (NO) levels in control and experimental groups of rats.
723 20307516 The levels of vitamin C, vitamin E and reduced glutathione (GSH) and activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR) were determined in the liver tissues.
724 20354684 In previous studies, with up to 16 weeks of exposure to rosiglitazone or pioglitazone, circulating markers of bone formation [procollagen I N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), osteocalcin, and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase] decreased but no change in bone resorption markers was found.
725 20354684 Overall, in stratified analyses of men and in stratified analyses among different ethnicities, there were no statistically significant differences observed in CTX, P1NP, OPG, PTH, or 25-OHD between the treatment groups.
726 20376213 The lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase, and catalase were measured in liver homogenate and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, lipid profile were measured in blood serum.
727 20376213 Administration of single dose of streptozotozin (55 mg/kg, i.p.) caused significant increases in lipid peroxidation, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, while superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly decreased.
728 20376213 Consequently, superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly increased.
729 20376213 It was observed that the effect of chloroform extracts of Calotropis gigantea on alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol, superoxide dismutase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, levels are comparable to that of those produced by the positive control.
730 20376213 The lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase, and catalase were measured in liver homogenate and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, lipid profile were measured in blood serum.
731 20376213 Administration of single dose of streptozotozin (55 mg/kg, i.p.) caused significant increases in lipid peroxidation, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, while superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly decreased.
732 20376213 Consequently, superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly increased.
733 20376213 It was observed that the effect of chloroform extracts of Calotropis gigantea on alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol, superoxide dismutase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, levels are comparable to that of those produced by the positive control.
734 20376213 The lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase, and catalase were measured in liver homogenate and serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, lipid profile were measured in blood serum.
735 20376213 Administration of single dose of streptozotozin (55 mg/kg, i.p.) caused significant increases in lipid peroxidation, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, while superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly decreased.
736 20376213 Consequently, superoxide dismutase and catalase levels were significantly increased.
737 20376213 It was observed that the effect of chloroform extracts of Calotropis gigantea on alkaline phosphatase, cholesterol, superoxide dismutase, serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, levels are comparable to that of those produced by the positive control.
738 20377096 Similarly, a trend toward higher mortality with progressively higher levels of ALT, AST and GGT is demonstrated.
739 20377096 Related liver chemistry results (alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, albumin), other risk factors, and age are also considered.
740 20457824 We assessed daily weight, food and water intake, urine volume and final day measurements of the following: plasma sodium, potassium, chloride, urea, creatinine, calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase, albumin, cholesterol and glucose; and urinary sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate, glucose and protein in 24- to 30-week-old C3H/HeH, BALB/cAnNCrl and C57BL/6J mice.
741 20561980 Immunohistochemical localization of low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 and alpha(2)-Macroglobulin in retinal and choroidal tissue of proliferative retinopathies.
742 20561980 The immunolocalization of the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) and its ligand alpha 2-Macroglobulin (alpha(2)M) was examined in tissues from human donor eyes of normal, diabetic and sickle cell disease subjects.
743 20561980 Streptavidin alkaline phosphatase immunohistochemistry was performed with a mouse anti-human LRP1 and rabbit anti-human alpha(2)M antibodies.
744 20674184 Many studies have provided evidence for a role of inflammation and inflammatory cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β in the vascular calcification process.
745 20674184 TNF-α and IL-1β have indeed been shown to stimulate in vitro the expression by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) of tissue-non specific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP), a key enzyme in the mineralization process, and to trigger the trans-differentiation of VSMCs into osteoblast-like cells, expressing the master transcription factor RUNX2.
746 20674184 We propose that cytokines block bone formation by decreasing RUNX2-mediated type I collagen production in osteoblasts, whereas they induce vascular ossification by the mere stimulation of TNAP by VSMCs, independently of RUNX2.
747 20674184 We propose that this stimulation of TNAP in VSMCs in vitro and in vivo may be sufficient to induce the calcification of collagen fibrils, and that the absence of crystal clearance, in turn, induces the differentiation of VSMCs and/or mesenchymal stem cells into bone-forming cells, eventually leading to formation of a bone-like tissue.
748 20818503 Increased expression of the receptor for activation of NF-kappaB and decreased runt-related transcription factor 2 expression in bone of rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes.
749 20818503 Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is associated with an increased risk of osteopenia/osteoporosis in humans.
750 20818503 Markers of bone formation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the number of osteoblasts in the proximal tibia and the serum osteocalcin level, were significantly lower.
751 20818503 Markers of bone resorption, activity of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and cathepsin K and the number of osteoclasts in the proximal tibia and urinary excretion of deoxypyridinoline, were higher in diabetic rats than control rats. mRNA levels of receptor for activation of NF-kappaB (RANK), c-fos, c-jun, TRAP and cathepsin K were significantly increased in diabetic rats, although RANK ligand, osteoprotegerin, macrophage colony-stimulating factor and c-fms levels were similar to the control value.
752 20818503 The decreased expression of ALP, osteoclacin and collagen mRNA in diabetic rats was associated with decreases in the expression of Runx2, Dlx5 and osterix and an unaltered expression of bone morphogenic protein-2.
753 20818503 The level of RANK protein increased and Runx2 protein decreased in diabetic rats.
754 20818503 These suggested that short-term IDDM induced upregulation of osteoclastogenesis with an increase in RANK and downregulation of osteoblastogenesis with a decrease in Runx2 in bone.
755 21135059 We developed a transgenic mouse line in which the surrogate markers secreted alkaline phosphatase (SeAP) and enhanced green florescent protein (EGFP) can be used to monitor neurogenin-3 expression, and thus islet cell genesis.
756 21147283 Metformin induces osteoblast differentiation via orphan nuclear receptor SHP-mediated transactivation of Runx2.
757 21147283 Metformin increased significantly the expression of the key osteogenic genes, such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OC) and bone sialoprotein (BSP) as well as SHP.
758 21147283 Transient transfection assays were performed in MC3T3E1 cells to confirm the effects of metformin on SHP, OC and Runx2 promoter activities.
759 21147283 Metformin increased the transcription of the SHP and OC genes, and the metformin effect was inhibited by dominant negative form of AMPK (DN-AMPK) or compound C (an inhibitor of AMPK).
760 21147283 The adenoviral overexpression of SHP increased significantly the level of ALP staining and OC production.
761 21147283 However, metformin did not have any significant effect on osteogenic gene expression, ALP staining and activity, and OC production in SHP null (SHP-/-) primary calvarial cells.
762 21147283 Moreover, upstream stimulatory factor-1 (USF-1) specifically mediated metformin-induced SHP gene expression.
763 21147283 In addition, metformin-induced AMPK activation increased the level of Runx2 mRNA and protein.
764 21147283 However, USF-1 and SHP were not involved in metformin-induced Runx2 expression.
765 21147283 Transient transfection and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays confirmed that metformin-induced SHP interacts physically and forms a complex with Runx2 on the osteocalcin gene promoter in MC3T3E1 cells.
766 21147283 These results suggest that metformin may stimulate osteoblast differentiation through the transactivation of Runx2 via AMPK/USF-1/SHP regulatory cascade in mouse calvaria-derived cells.
767 21239498 Parathyroid hormone-responsive Smad3-related factor, Tmem119, promotes osteoblast differentiation and interacts with the bone morphogenetic protein-Runx2 pathway.
768 21239498 We previously showed that inhibition of ERK1/2 enhanced Smad3-induced bone anabolic action in osteoblasts.
769 21239498 These findings suggested the hypothesis that changes in gene expression associated with the altered Smad3-induced signaling brought about by an ERK1/2 inhibitor would identify novel bone anabolic factors in osteoblasts.
770 21239498 Among the novel factors, Tmem119 was selected on the basis of its rapid induction by PTH independent of later increases in endogenous TGF-β.
771 21239498 The levels of Tmem119 increased with time in cultures of MC3T3-E1 cells and mouse mesenchymal ST-2 cells committed to the osteoblast lineage by BMP-2.
772 21239498 PTH stimulated Tmem119 levels within 1 h as determined by Western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry in MC3T3-E1 cells.
773 21239498 MC3T3-E1 cells stably overexpressing Tmem119 exhibited elevated levels of Runx2, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase, and β-catenin, whereas Tmem119 augmented BMP-2-induced Runx2 levels in mesenchymal cells.
774 21239498 Tmem119 interacted with Runx2, Smad1, and Smad5 in C2C12 cells.
775 21239498 In conclusion, we identified a Smad3-related factor, Tmem119, that is induced by PTH and promotes differentiation in mouse osteoblastic cells.
776 21239498 Tmem119 is an important molecule in the pathway downstream of PTH and Smad3 signaling in osteoblasts.
777 21264795 Menin promotes the commitment of pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells to the osteoblast lineage by interacting with the BMP-2 signaling molecules Smad1/5, and Runx2.
778 21264795 Antisense menin transfection antagonized the BMP-2 and β-catenin-stimulated increases in Runx2 and alkaline phosphatase levels in C2C12 cells.
779 21439372 Oral administration of resveratrol to diabetic rats showed a significant normalization on the levels of creatinine clearance, plasma adiponectin, C-peptide and renal superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical, nitric oxide, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and NF-κB p65 subunit and activities of renal aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase and alkaline phosphatase in comparison with diabetic rats.
780 21439372 The altered activities of renal aldose reductase, sorbitol dehydrogenase and glyoxalase-I and elevated level of serum advanced glycation end products in diabetic rats were also reverted back to near normalcy.
781 21439372 Further, resveratrol treatment revealed a significant improvement in superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase and glutathione reductase activities and vitamins C and E, and reduced glutathione levels, with a significant decline in lipid peroxides, hydroperoxides and protein carbonyls levels in diabetic kidneys.
782 21467300 To determine whether DOR acts as a modulator of TH action during osteoblast differentiation, we examined whether overexpression or knockdown of DOR in MC3T3-E1 cells affects the ability of TH to induce osteoblast differentiation by evaluating alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity.
783 21467300 Consistent with reduced ALP activity, mRNA levels of osteocalcin, ALP, and Runx2 were decreased significantly in DOR shRNA cells.
784 21468429 We developed a strategy involving comparative proteomic analysis to detect CLI associated plasma biomarkers. 2D-DIGE and subsequent MALDI-TOF MS analyses provided 50 differentially expressed plasma proteins (including alkaline phosphatase and haptoglobin), between hemodialytic diabetic patients with and without CLI.
785 21502681 Health insurance claims data from 3,244 patients with chronic or persistent ITP was examined to estimate the prevalence of abnormal HBL values: elevated levels of Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin, and Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP).
786 21512229 We constructed in this study a chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) for measuring leptin by using the anti-leptin polyclonal antibody and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).
787 21512229 The method applies the IgG-conjugated ferrite particle to capture leptin in a sample and the ALP-conjugated Fab fragment to detect the captured leptin.
788 21512229 We tested Block ace, CE510, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) for their abilities to block non-specific binding of ALP-conjugated anti-leptin Fab to the ferrite particle and found BSA to be the most effective.
789 21534331 Alkaline phosphatase was 24-fold upper limit of normal (ULN), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase 21-fold ULN, aspartate aminotransferase 3-fold ULN, alanine aminotransferase 2-fold ULN, cholesterol 408 mg/dL, bilirubin normal, gamma-globulin 3.92 g/dL, IgG4 4.6 g/L, antinuclear antibody positive (1/320), and antimitochondrial antibodies negative.

793 21555997 In conclusion, whereas TNF-α and IL-1β stimulate TNAP activity in VSMCs, they inhibit it in entheseal cells in situ and on chondrocytes in vitro.
794 21555997 Cell-specific effects of TNF-α and IL-1β on alkaline phosphatase: implication for syndesmophyte formation and vascular calcification.

798 21567076 Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus decreases osteoblastogenesis associated with the inhibition of Wnt signaling through increased expression of Sost and Dkk1 and inhibition of Akt activation.
799 21567076 Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) is known to be associated with an increased risk of osteopenia.
800 21567076 After 4 weeks, the diabetic rats exhibited bone loss, low levels of osteocalcin, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and bone alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity with normal levels of bone tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and cathepsin K activity, and urinary excretion of deoxypyridinoline (Dpd).
801 21567076 The decreased expression of ALP, osteoclacin and collagen mRNA was associated with a decrease in the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), Osterix and distal-less homeobox 5 (Dlx5) and an unaltered expression of bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2).
802 21567076 The protein levels of Runx2, phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β), active β-catenin and β-catenin decreased.
803 21567076 The mRNA and protein levels of sclerosteosis (Sost) and Dickkopf 1 (Dkk1), inhibitors of Wnt signaling, increased.
804 21567076 The mRNA expression of IGF-I and the IGF-I receptor (IGF-IR) was suppressed.
805 21567076 These changes observed in the bone of diabetic rats were reversed by treatment with insulin, but not by normalization of the circulating IGF-I levels by treatment with IGF-I.
806 21567076 These results suggest that insulin-deficiency in IDDM decreases osteoblastogenesis associated with inhibition of Wnt signaling through the increased expression of Sost and Dkk1 and the inhibition of Akt activation.
807 21590734 Both activation and overexpression of A(2B) R induced the expression of osteoblast-related genes [Runx2 and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)], as well as ALP activity, and stimulation increased osteoblast mineralization.
808 21707532 In a phase II clinical trial in patients with PBC, 6E-CDCA met the primary endpoint of a reduction in alkaline phosphatase levels but safety data indicated that the drug exacerbated pruritus, one of the main symptoms of PBC, suggesting that 6E-CDCA or FXR are mediators of pruritus in humans.
809 21735456 Effects of aspartate transaminase, aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities, glucose and HbA1c levels and in vitro glucose (492, 287, 184, 131, 82 mg dl⁻¹, respectively) on enzymes were determined.
810 21735456 In patients with high HbA1c levels (>10.1%), ALP, GGT activities and creatine kinase (CK)-MB/CK (p = 0.008, 0.026, 0.014) ratio were increased significantly when compared with those in the control group.
811 21735456 Glucose, which was added to serum in different concentrations in vitro, did not directly affect enzyme activities such as ALP, GGT and CK.
812 21766769 Initial evaluation for systemic disease includes complete blood count and measurement of thyroid-stimulating hormone, fasting glucose, alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen.
813 21820091 Bone turnover was reduced with a suppression of both osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase in the first 12 months of treatment.
814 21823052 The purpose of this study was to explore whether mechanical loading by exercise over a 1-year period in postmenopausal women had an effect on the receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand/osteoprotegerin (RANKL/OPG) system or the levels of the Wnt-signaling antagonist sclerostin.
815 21823052 Blood samples were taken from participants at baseline and after 1 year and serum levels of OPG, RANKL and sclerostin were quantified together with the bone metabolism markers C-terminal telopeptide of collagen type I (CTX) and bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP).
816 21823052 Although our study is limited in number of participating women, we have been able to show an OPG-associated, and RANKL- and sclerostin-independent, training-induced inhibition of postmenopausal bone loss.
817 21885239 Biological bone markers such as serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) are necessary to classify bone diseases without the need for bone biopsy.
818 21885239 Managing these therapies adequately can help maintain the main biological values (i.e. serum PTH, calcium, phosphorus, and ALP) within their recommended ranges.
819 21971710 There was an increase in serum alkaline phosphatase and trend to higher serum beta carboxyl-terminal type I collagen telopeptide concentrations in the type 1 patients, and a decrease in free testosterone in the type 1 men.
820 22089767 In this study population, there was no significant difference in the H. pylori IgG antibody titers, serum iPTH, Mg, calcium, alkaline phosphatase and albumin levels as well as body mass index (BMI) between males and females or diabetics and non-diabetics.
821 22089767 There was no significant relationship between serum H. pylori IgG antibody titers and the age of the patients, BMI, serum Alb, phosphorus, Ca, serum leptin and serum ALP.
822 22089771 Serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations were measured.
823 22089771 However, in multivariate regression analysis and with regard to the patients' characteristics and medical history in a multivariate model, no relationships were found between ocular findings and serum calcium, phosphorus, ALP, and PTH concentrations.
824 22089771 No relationships were found between the serum concentrations of calcium, phosphorus, ALP, and PTH and ocular findings in patients with end stage renal failure undergoing hemodialysis.
825 22238287 Moreover, plasma phosphorus concentration, calcium × phosphorus product and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and aortic calcium content and ALP activity were significantly increased.
826 22238287 Fructose feeding increased mRNA levels of osteopontin, type III sodium-dependent phosphate co-transporter, bone morphogenetic protein-2 and the key transcription factor core binding factor alpha 1 in aortic tissue and downregulated mRNA levels of osteoprotegerin and matrix γ-carboxyglutamic acid protein.
827 22245424 A reduction of endogenous FAM5C by siRNA reduced the levels of osterix, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN) mRNA as well as the levels of type 1 collagen and β-catenin in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells and mouse calvarial osteoblasts, although FAM5C overexpression significantly antagonized the levels of osterix, ALP and OCN mRNA induced by bone morphogenetic protein-2 in C2C12 cells.
828 22245424 The conditioned medium from FAM5C-overexpressed and -suppressed C2C12 cells increased and decreased the levels of osterix, ALP and OCN mRNA in MC3T3-E1 cells, respectively.
829 22327928 Blood samples were obtained for the measurement of serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), albumin, creatinine, glucose, and serum lipid levels.
830 22351757 Stable overexpression of OGN significantly decreased the levels of Runx2 and Osterix mRNA compared with those in cells transfected with vector alone in MC3T3-E1 cells.
831 22351757 On the other hand, it significantly enhanced the levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), type I collagen (Col1), and osteocalcin (OCN) mRNA as well as β-catenin and mineralization.

833 22351757 The conditioned medium from OGN-overexpressed and OGN-suppressed myoblastic cells enhanced and decreased, respectively, the levels of ALP, Col1, and β-catenin in MC3T3-E1 cells.
834 22351757 Moreover, OGN increased Smad3/4-responsive transcriptional activity as well as Col1 mRNA levels independently of endogenous TGF-β in these cells.
835 22461258 Hypophosphatasia was diagnosed in the interim due to low serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (ALP 20 IU/L; normal (N), 40-150 IU/L) and high pyridoxal 5' phosphate (3400 nmol/L; N 18-175 nmol/L).
836 22467999 Changes in activities of enzymes such as serum aspartate transaminase (AST), serum alanine transaminase (ALT), and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) seen in the control and experimental rats, revealed the tissue-protective nature of Persea americana fruits, while all of the analysed biochemical parameters were comparable to those obtained with gliclazide as a standard reference drug.
837 22473318 The biological properties of these cells were characterized using the following methods: alkaline phosphatase (ALP) chemical staining for cell viability, Alizarin red staining for osteogenic characteristics, MTT test for cell proliferation, enzyme dynamics for ALP contents, radio-immunoassay for bone gla protein (BGP) concentration, and ELISA for the concentration of type I collagen (COL-I) in the supernatant.
838 22473318 The concentration of ALP, BGP and COL-I was lower in the supernatant of alveolar bone osteoblasts received from type 2 diabetic patients than in that received from normal subjects (P < 0.05).
839 22518296 HO-1 participates in the MSC differentiation process shifting the balance of MSC differentiation in favor of the osteoblast lineage by decreasing PPARγ and increasing osteogenic markers such as alkaline phosphatase and BMP-2.
840 22557182 T. arjuna was administered orally at a doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight for 30 days, after which serum liver and kidney tissues were assayed for the degree of pathological changes by means of markers such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), acid phosphatase (ACP), alanine amino transferase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) resulted in a significant reduction in serum and tissue of liver and kidney marker enzymes when compared with control rats T. arjuna at a dose of 500 mg/kg body weight exhibited higher efficacy.
841 22557255 Pterocarpus marsupium is one of the plants used in treatment of diabetes mellitus and the present study was aimed to assess hepatoprotective effect of the plant against CCl(4) induced hepatotoxicity.
842 22557255 Group I was normal control group; Group II, the hepatotoxic group was given CCl(4) (2ml/kg body weight intraperitoneally); Groups III received CC1(4) + Plant extract (100 mg/kg b.w orally); Group IV received only the plant extract.
843 22557255 Levels of marker enzymes such as alanine transminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and bilirubin were increased significantly in Group II.
844 22557255 The present investigation suggest that the plant had a good protective effect on CCl(4) induced hepatic injury.
845 22570955 Fasting blood glucose, insulin, lipid profile, calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels, as well as blood glucose and insulin concentrations at 120 min of oral glucose tolerance test were measured.
846 22579779 The constitutively activating mutation (R206H) of the BMP type 1 receptor, activin A type 1 receptor/activin-like kinase 2 (ACVR1/ALK2), underlies the molecular pathogenesis of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) in which heterotopic ossification occurs in muscle tissue.
847 22579779 Transcriptional activity of the BMP-2 signaling molecules, Smad1/5, was increased even in the absence of exogenous BMP-2.
848 22579779 Endogenous BMP-2 levels positively correlated with Tmem119 levels.
849 22579779 A BMP-2/4 neutralizing antibody and dorsomorphin, an ALK2 inhibitor, antagonized Tmem119-enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels.
850 22579779 Tmem119 siRNA antagonized the BMP-2-induced ALP and osteocalcin, but not Runx2 and Osterix, mRNAs, in C2C12 cells.
851 22579779 In conclusion, Tmem119 levels were increased by the FOP-associated constitutively activating ALK2 mutation in myoblasts.
852 22579779 The data show that Tmem119 promotes the differentiation of myoblasts into osteoblasts and the interaction with the BMP signaling pathway likely occurs downstream of Runx2 and Osterix in myoblasts.
853 22736554 A 55-year-old Asian man was referred to a gastroenterology clinic by his general practitioner following an incidental finding of raised alkaline phosphatase (ALP) on routine blood testing.
854 22736554 His gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) was normal at 33 (NR 11-50) making bone the most likely source of his raised ALP.
855 22752126 In a population-based study, cardiovascular risk factors, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), osteoprotegerin, receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand, osteocalcin, CrossLaps, alkaline phosphatase, and bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (L2-L4) and the proximal femur were measured in 382 Iranian postmenopausal women.
856 22752126 Since CrossLaps and alkaline phosphatase levels were independently associated with the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, the unique contribution of osteocalcin in glucose metabolism could not be concluded.

873 22912827 Tcal/Tcal mice had normal plasma calcium and parathyroid hormone concentrations; decreased alkaline phosphatase activity and intact Fgf23 concentrations; and elevation of circulating 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D.
874 22912827 Quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR (qRT-PCR) revealed that Tcal/Tcal mice had increased expression of Galnt3 and Fgf23 in bone, but that renal expression of Klotho, 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1α-hydroxylase (Cyp27b1), and the sodium-phosphate co-transporters type-IIa and -IIc was similar to that in wild-type mice.
875 22926010 Although, in the presence of insulin and glucose, proliferation of osteoblasts was increased (1.2- to 1.7-fold), their alkaline phosphatase activity and, consequently, production of mineralized matrix were significantly reduced down to 55 % as compared to control cells (p < 0.001).
876 22926010 Stimulation with both glucose and insulin induced gene expression changes (e.g., osteocalcin, Runx2, Satb2, or Stat1) comparable to treatment with recombinant TGF-β(1), further indicating osteoblasts' dysfunction.
877 23052229 Results showed that SM22α-Rankl ( tg ) SMCs had higher baseline alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity but not baseline matrix calcification.
878 23052229 Real-time RT-qPCR revealed higher baseline expression of ALP and ankylosis genes but lower osteoprotegerin gene in SM22α-Rankl ( tg ) SMCs.

894 23416071 Interactions between FGF21 and BMP-2 in osteogenesis.
895 23416071 There are many documented interactions between the FGF and BMP family proteins, although the interaction between FGF21 and BMP-2 remains unknown.
896 23416071 We found that FGF21 enhanced BMP-2-dependent transcription and osteogenesis in the C2C12 cell line, which was confirmed by alkaline phosphatase activity, matrix mineralization, and gene expression.
897 23416071 Furthermore, we identified a negative feedback loop in which BMP-2 decreased endogenous FGF21 mRNA expression.
898 23416071 In summary, this study demonstrates interactions between BMP-2 and FGF21 pathways exist in vitro, and that FGF21 enhances the osteogenic activity of BMP-2 by up-regulating the BMP-2-dependent Smad signaling pathway.
899 23485614 Both interventions restored the liver function markers (alanine transaminase: ALT, aspartate transaminase: AST, alkaline phosphatase: ALP, total bilirubin and total protein) and hepatic antioxidants (superoxide dismutase: SOD, catalase: CAT, reduced glutathione: GSH and glutathione peroxidase: GPx) to the normal levels than elevated levels noticed on paracetamol control at P<0.001.
900 23575901 The odontogenic, osteogenic differentiation and biomineralization of human tooth germ stem cells (hTGSCs) were evaluated by analyzing the mRNA expression levels, odontogenic and osteogenic protein expressions, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization, and calcium deposits.
901 23580160 In all rats, serum vitamin E, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low (LDL) and high (HDL) density lipoproteins, alanine (ALT) and aspartate (AST) transaminases, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) as well as cardiac and hepatic thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidants (reduced glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT)) were measured.
902 23580160 HFD significantly increased QTc interval, heart rate (HR), serum TC, TG, LDL, ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, liver TG, and cardiac and hepatic TBARS but decreased antioxidants and HDL, while SIM decreased HR, liver TG, serum TC, TG, and LDL and increased HDL in HFD rats.
903 23580160 Moreover, SIM and vitamin E decreased QTc interval, serum ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, and cardiac and hepatic TBARS and increased antioxidants in HFD rats.
904 23607045 Serum samples were analyzed for calcium, phosphorus, albumin, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, 25 (OH) vitamin D3, intact parathormone (PTH) levels (both cases and controls) and HbA1c, antimicrosomal and IgA tissue transglutaminase (IgA TTG) antibodies, cortisol, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), tetraiodothyronine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) (cases only).
905 23607045 Linear regression analysis showed that low BMD in T1DM patients was associated with poor glycaemic control, lower IGF-1 levels, less physical activity (in total population as well as in male and female subgroups), and lower body fat percentage (in females) and higher alkaline phosphatase level (in males) (P < 0.05).
906 23607045 Serum samples were analyzed for calcium, phosphorus, albumin, creatinine, alkaline phosphatase, 25 (OH) vitamin D3, intact parathormone (PTH) levels (both cases and controls) and HbA1c, antimicrosomal and IgA tissue transglutaminase (IgA TTG) antibodies, cortisol, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), tetraiodothyronine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) (cases only).
907 23607045 Linear regression analysis showed that low BMD in T1DM patients was associated with poor glycaemic control, lower IGF-1 levels, less physical activity (in total population as well as in male and female subgroups), and lower body fat percentage (in females) and higher alkaline phosphatase level (in males) (P < 0.05).
908 23652227 Activities of hepatic and renal superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), serum alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase and alanine aminotransferase were not significantly (p&gt;0.05) affected in MET and GB-treated rats, whereas testicular SOD, CAT, glutathione, serum aspartate aminotransferase and conjugated bilirubin were markedly affected by MET treatment.
909 23652775 In addition, treatment with CZE resulted in a significant increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and collagen content, as well as in the expression of genes associated with osteoblast differentiation [ALP, collagen, osteopontin (OPN), osteoprotegerin (OPG), bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteocalcin (OC) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)2, BMP4 and BMP7].
910 23652775 In mechanistic studies of the antioxidative potential of CZE, we found that CZE reversed the dRib-induced decrease in the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT)1 and AKT2 genes, which are master regulators of survival-related signaling pathways.
911 23652775 CZE also upregulated the gene expression of the antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD)2, SOD3 and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4), which was inhibited by dRib.
912 23672077 Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, adiponectin, leptin, and CK-18 were measured in 27 patients (8 patients with simple fatty liver, 6 fatty liver with fibrosis patients, 13 patients with NASH) and 23 healthy controls.
913 23672077 Regarding gender difference in the control group, although both adiponectin and leptin significantly increased in the female compared with the male (p < 0.002 and p < 0.01, respectively), there were no significant gender differences in CK-18.
914 23672077 Serum levels of adiponectin was significantly lower in patients with NASH compared with the control group(p < 0.001), and both leptin and CK-18 were markedly higher in patients with NASH compared with control group (p < 0.001).
915 23705196 The subjects were also tested for fasting blood glucose (FBG), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cholesterol (CL), triglycerides (TG), creatinine, oral glucose tolerance test (GTT), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).
916 23705196 The exposed farmers showed higher FBG (p<0.001), BUN (p=0.007), CL (p<0.001), oral GTT (p<0.001), and lower AST (p<0.001), ALP (p<0.001), and creatinine (p=0.004) than controls.
917 23715621 PAI-1 deficiency blunted the changes in the levels of Runx2, osterix, and alkaline phosphatase in tibia as well as serum osteocalcin levels suppressed by the diabetic state in female mice only.
918 23735664 The Zn supplement prevented a decrease in the activity and mRNA of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin mRNA, and hydroxyproline and calcium levels, and an increase in the activity and mRNA of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and cathepsin K in the proximal tibia of diabetic rats.
919 23735664 The increase in mRNA levels of receptor for activation of NF-κB (RANK), c-fos, c-jun, TRAP, and cathepsin K and decrease in the expression of Runx2, Dlx5, osterix, ALP, osteocalcin, and collagen were prevented by the supplement.
920 23735664 The decrease in β-catenin, phosphorylated GSK3β, phosphorylated Akt, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) protein levels in diabetic rats was also inhibited, although Zn did not affect the diabetes-increased gene and protein expression of Sost and Dkk1.
921 23735664 These results suggested that Zn prevented the diabetes-induced increase in osteoclastogenesis and decrease in osteoblastogenesis by inhibiting RANK expression and stimulating IGF-1/IGF-1R/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling, respectively.
922 23754846 It has been previously shown that elastin degradation products work synergistically with transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) to induce osteogenesis in vascular smooth muscle cells.
923 23754846 Thus, the goal of this study was to analyse the effects of high concentration of glucose, elastin peptides and TGF-β1 on bone-specific markers like alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2).
924 23754846 We demonstrated using relative gene expression and specific protein assays that elastin degradation products in the presence of high glucose cause the increase in expression of the specific elastin-laminin receptor-1 (ELR-1) and activin receptor-like kinase-5 (ALK-5) present on the surface of the vascular cells, in turn leading to overexpression of typical osteogenic markers like ALP, OCN and RUNX2.
925 23754846 In conclusion, our results indicate that glucose plays an important role in amplifying the osteogenesis induced by elastin peptides and TGF-β1, possibly by activating the ELR-1 and ALK-5 signalling pathways.
926 23757055 Activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway by oxidative stress mediates high glucose-induced increase of adipogenic differentiation in primary rat osteoblasts.
927 23757055 Most importantly, we reported for the first time that ROS induced by high glucose increased alkaline phosphatase activity, inhibited type I collagen (collagen I) protein level and cell mineralization, as well as gene expression of osteogenic markers including runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), collagen I, and osteocalcin, but promoted lipid droplet formation and gene expression of adipogenic markers including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (aP2), and adipsin, which were restored by pretreatment with N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a ROS scavenger.
928 23757055 Moreover, high glucose-induced oxidative stress activated PI3K/Akt pathway to inhibited osteogenic differentiation but stimulated adipogenic differentiation.
929 23757055 In contrast, NAC and a PI3K inhibitor, LY-294002, reversed the down-regulation of osteogenic markers and the up-regulation of adipogenic markers as well as the activation of Akt under high glucose.
930 23757055 This process was mediated by PI3K/Akt pathway in rat primary osteoblasts.
931 23801371 Prediagnostic plasma testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin, IGF-I and hepatocellular carcinoma: etiological factors or risk markers?
932 23801371 Elevated prediagnostic testosterone and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) concentrations have been proposed to increase risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
933 23801371 Testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and IGF-I were analyzed by immunoassays.
934 23801371 After adjustments for epidemiological variables (body mass index, smoking, ethanol intake, hepatitis and diabetes) and liver damage (a score based on albumin, bilirubin, aspartate aminotransaminase, alanine aminotransaminase, gamma-glutamyltransferase and alkaline phosphatase concentrations), only SHBG remained significantly associated with risk [OR for top versus bottom tertile of 3.86 (1.32-11.3), p(trend) = 0.009].
935 23801371 The observed associations of HCC with prediagnostic SHBG, free testosterone and IGF-I concentrations are in directions opposite to that expected under the etiological hypotheses.
936 23806420 The dose 80 mg/kg b.w, significantly reduced the levels of blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and increased plasma insulin level.
937 23806420 The altered activities of the key enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism such as glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and hepatic enzymes (aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) in the liver tissues of diabetic rats were significantly reverted to near normal levels by the administration of fraxetin.
938 23823277 Albumin, uric acid, urea, total-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, aspartate-aminotransferase and alkaline-phosphatase were determined in serum.
939 23826312 Elevated serum levels of aspartate transaminase, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase were restored to normal or greatly reduced in treated rats, indicating normalization of liver function.
940 23860646 For instance, deficiency in tissue-nonspecific alkaline phosphatase (TNAP) in mice (Alpl (-/-) mice) and humans leads to hypophosphatasia (HPP), an inborn error of metabolism characterized by epileptic seizures in the most severe cases, caused by abnormal metabolism of pyridoxal-5'-phosphate (the predominant form of vitamin B6) and by hypomineralization of the skeleton and teeth featuring rickets and early loss of teeth in children or osteomalacia and dental problems in adults caused by accumulation of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi).
941 23860646 These changes are accompanied by upregulation in the jejunal-ileal expression of the Akp6 IAP isozyme (global IAP, or gIAP) and concomitant upregulation of FAT/CD36, a phosphorylated fatty acid translocase thought to play a role in facilitating the transport of long-chain fatty acids into cells. gIAP, but not dIAP, is able to modulate the phosphorylation status of FAT/CD36. dIAP, even though it is expressed in the duodenum, is shed into the gut lumen and is active in LPS dephosphorylation throughout the gut lumen and in the feces.
942 23860646 Analogous to the role of IAP in the gut, TNAP expression in the liver may have a proactive role from bacterial endotoxin insult.
943 23860646 This review recounts the established roles of TNAP and IAP and briefly discusses new areas of investigation related to multisystemic functions of these isozymes.

956 23886079 Furthermore, eugenol similar to acarbose reduced serum glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), lipase and ACE levels.
957 23886079 Overall, EG significantly reverted back to near normal the values of the biochemical biomarkers such as transaminases (AST&ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) activities, total-bilirubin, creatinine, urea and uric acid rates.
958 23933252 An ER stress inducer, thapsigargin (TG), induced osteoblastic differentiation of ST2 cells by increasing the levels of Osterix, type 1 collagen (Col1), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteocalcin (OCN) mRNA.
959 23933252 AGE2 or AGE3 suppressed the levels of ER stress sensors such as IRE1α, ATF6 and OASIS, while they increased the levels of PERK and its downstream molecules, ATF4.
