Mechanisms and consequencesThe Zinc SwitchThe zinc switch is an excellent example of an albumin-based drug-nutrient interaction mechanism.Essentially the zinc switch ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin and the fatty acids (FAs) interactions have an important physiological relationship. Albumin is a key carrier for ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin and thyroxine, either separately or together, are important contributors to most of our physiological functions. Albumin carries ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin and minerals in combination encompass a broad range of physiological. Albumin’s multiple metal binding sites enables it ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin and vitamins are essential for body function as albumin is either a primary or secondary carrier for ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin is a glycoprotein that is the primary, blood-specific carrier in the body’s distribution network. It is not ...

Mechanisms and consequencesAlbumin aka Human Serum Albumin (HSA) is the main protein in the blood. It is part of a ...

Mechanisms and consequencesThe body’s distribution system comprises a framework of local transporters, hubs, and systemic carriers. We see examples of ...

Mechanisms and consequencesDrug administration for dysphagia is a fraught issue. Many pharmaceutical manufacturers recommend their products not be crushed, chewed, ...

Mechanisms and consequences Chromium is very important in enhancing the signalling cascade that stimulates insulin-dependent glucose transporters such as GLUT4 to ...

AMPK mechanisms and consequencesAMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) is an energy sensor in the cells. It rebalances adenosine triphosphate (ATP) ...

PKC mechanisms and consequencesPKC (Protein Kinase C) is a second pathway that stimulates insulin-dependent glucose transporters to translocate.Outlined below are ...

Mechanisms and consequencesGlucose transporters SGLTs (sodium-dependent glucose transporters) are one of the three identified families of glucose transporters in humans.Being ...

Mechanisms and consequencesThe glucose transporters SWEETs is a relatively recent discovery about which not much is known. The SWEETs are ...

Mechanisms and consequencesGlucose transporters (GLUTs) and sodium–glucose linked transporters (SGLTs) are the regulatory pathways essential for glucose homeostasis. Glucose is ...

Mechanisms and consequencesThe interdependence of copper-iron interactions, and their importance in health management, remains overlooked and under-researched. Deficiencies or excesses ...
