Original Source: Relationships between C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and insulin resistance in a Chinese population.
This study is to clarify whether C-reactive protein (CRP) and white blood cell (WBC) count influence insulin homeostasis to the same degree. Serum CRP and peripheral WBC were measured in 739 subjects with normal glucose regulation, 512 with impaired glucose regulation, and 502 newly diagnosed diabetic patients. Levels of insulin resistance (IR) were assessed using the index of homeostasis model (HOMA-IR). Serum CRP and WBC were significantly correlated with HOMA-IR and risk factors of IR. Relative risks of...

Wnt is an anti-apoptotic ligand for the Fz (frizzled) receptor on cell membranes
Wnt is an anti-apoptotic ligand for the Fz (frizzled) receptor on cell membranes, meaning it attaches to the Fz receptor and prevents cell death (in effect with other cellular stimuli). Wnt molecule...
