Insulin therapy is the cornerstone of management of T1D as beta-cell dysfunction or destruction progressively leads to absolute insulin deficiency. Physiologic insulin replacement that aims to mimic normal pancreatic insulin secretion is the preferred method of treatment of T1D patients. Basal insulin is the background insulin required to suppress hepatic glucose production overnight and between … [Read more…]
Ubiquinone/Ubidecarenone also called coenzyme Q10, is a 1,4-benzoquinone. From his name (Q10), the Q refers to the constitutive quinone group, and 10 is related to the number of isoprenyl subunits in its tail. It is a powerful antioxidant, a lipid-soluble and an essential cofactor in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.[rx] The ubidecarenone is the coenzyme destined for … [Read more…]
