Strasser Moritz , Schweighofer Natascha , Obermayer Anna , Borzan Valentin , Haudum Christoph , Lerchbaum Elisabeth , Trummer Christian , Dimai Hans , Sourij Caren , Sourij Harald , Pieber Thomas , Obermayer-Pietsch Barbara

BackgroundMetformin is a widely used and effective agent in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Yet, the mechanisms of action and the occurrence of side effects (e.g. abdominal bloating and pain), are still poorly understood. Since organic cation transporters (OCTs) are responsible for the hepatic and renal transport of metformin, we investigated a series of short nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the OCT genes in PCOS ...

Semaglutide reduces fat accumulation in the tongue of obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A randomized, placebo-controlled prospective study

Jensterle Mojca , Ferjan Simona , Vovk Andrej , Battelino Tadej , Rizzo Manfredi , Janez Andrej

ObjectiveFat depot in the tongue that represents 25–30% of the total tongue mass is largely unaddressed. It correlates with body mass index. The response to weight reduction induced by different anti-obesity modalities may vary between body fat compartments. Semaglutide, a long acting GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), has the potential to reduce body mass with at least 2 to 3 times greater weight reduction than other studied GLP-1 RAs. This is the ...

Glucagon levels in women with Alzheimer’s disease

Vankova Marketa , Vcelak Josef , Vejrazkova Daniela , Bendlova Bela

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that manifests itself in the gradual loss of cognitive and behavioral functions. In humans, glucagon is processed in pancreatic alpha cells located next to insulin-secreting beta cells, suggesting a local interaction. Glucagon is also produced in the intestinal L-cells and in small amounts in the hypothalamus. The main function of glucagon is to counteract the effects of insulin and thus maintain balanced blood gluco...

ContextGenetic obesity, including syndromic and non-syndromic forms, represent a minority of cases but gene dysregulations make their management particularly difficult. Among them, Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a multisystem human genomic imprinting disorder characterized by overgrowth, macroglossia, abdominal wall defects, hemi hyperplasia, enlarged abdominal organs, and an increased risk of embryonal tumours. The syndrome is caused by genet...

Efficacy of liraglutide in weight reduction in a patient with HAIR-AN syndrome - case report

Wasyluk Weronika , Joanna Świrska , Matyjaszek-Matuszek Beata , Zwolak Agnieszka

HAIR-AN is a rarely recognized syndrome which is characterized by hyperandrogenism (HA), insulin resistance (IR) and acanthosis nigricans (AN). In the course of the syndrome, anovulation and metabolic disorders can develop, too. It is therefore suggested by some authors that HAIR-AN is an extreme phenotype of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
