Sulfonylureas (SUs) are a class of antidiabetic drugs widely used in the management of diabetes mellitus type 2. They promote insulin secretion by inhibiting the ATP-sensitive potassium channel in pancreatic β-cells. Recently, the exchange prote...
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) are anchored at the outer leaflet of eukaryotic plasma membranes (PMs) only by carboxy-terminal covalently coupled GPI. GPI-APs are known to be released from the surface of donor cells in respo...
Accelerated microbial degradation following previous repeated applications of the same pesticide, or another pesticide of a similar chemical structure, is a known phenomenon. Currently there is limited information regarding accelerated degradation of...
Herein, an ultrasensitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), based on metal-organic framework-decorated polydopamine (PCN-224@PDA) was first established to detect multiple sulfonylureas (SUs) in functional foods. The PCN-224@PDA was synthesized using t...

We conducted this study to investigate the long-term outcomes of sulfonylurea (SU) use in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). We used propensity-score matching to identify 6008 pairs of SU users and n...
After the launch of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), a new oral hypoglycemic drug (OHD), in December 2009, severe hypoglycemia cases were reported in Japan. Although the definite cause was unknown, co-administration with sulfonylureas (SU) was suspect...
Background: Type 2 diabetes is related to an increased risk of dementia. Preclinical studies of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV inhibitors (DPP-4i) for dementia have yielded promising results. Therefore, we investigated the risk of dementia in elderly patien...
Sulfonylureas (SUs)—a class of drugs primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes—have recently attracted interest for their potential anticancer properties. While some studies have explored the chemical modification or design of new SU deriva...
In soybean cropping, sulfonylurea (SU) herbicides are a potentially useful alternative to glyphosate-based herbicides. Normally, soybeans are susceptible to SU herbicides, but two unlinked non-GMO genes (ALS1 and ALS2), have been identified that conf...
Conventional immunochromatographic assays (ICAs) face limitations in sensitivity and dynamic range, hindering their application in on-site, class-specific screening of sulfonylurea (SU) adulteration in functional foods. To address this, a signal ampl...
Background and objectives: In the last couple of years, pharmacological management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been markedly renewed. The aim of this study was to analyse the changes in prescribing patterns of antidiabetic d...
It is suggested that clock genes link the circadian rhythm to glucose and lipid metabolism. In this study, we explored the role of the clock gene Bmal1 in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) in glucose metabolism. The Sim1-Cre-mediated del...
The current literature indicates that type 2 diabetes (T2DM) significantly increases the risk of cancer, including pancreatic cancer (PC). While metformin’s primary role is the management of T2DM, its utility extends to systemic anti-cancer eff...
This study was conducted to develop a novel herbicide resistance soybean using ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutagen. In this study, 0.1% of EMS mutagen was applied to the soybean [Glycine max (L.) cv Arısoy] seeds. A single resistant mutant was...
Background. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of diet and antihyperglycemic drugs on erectile dysfunction (ED) in a setting of subjects affected by diabetes mellitus (DM) or preDM. Methods. This is a prospective observational study...
Background: There are multiple glucose-lowering drugs available as alternative initial monotherapy for type 2 diabetes patients with contraindications or intolerance to metformin. However, little comparative and systematic data are available for them...
Genome-edited (GE) crops are reaching consumers faster than the analytical infrastructure designed to monitor them. Unlike transgenic crops, most GE products carry only small sequence changes and no foreign DNA, making conventional element-based poly...
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a significant risk factor for various cancers, with the impact of anti-diabetic therapies on cancer progression differing across malignancies. Among these therapies, metformin has gained attention for its potential anti-canc...
Background: Multiple glucose-lowering drugs are available as add-ons to metformin for a second-line treatment for type 2 diabetes. However, no systematic and comparative data are available for them in China. We aimed to compare the effects of glucose...
