Irisin is secreted mainly in skeletal muscle, especially in the perimysium, endomysium, and nuclear parts, albeit adipose tissue,pancreas, sebaceous glands, and cardiac muscle have been identified as secretory tissues. How do you produce irisin? Irisin isreleased through the cleavage of FNDC5, a...
Where in the pancreas is insulin produced? Where does mechanical digestion occur? Where does the digestion of proteins end? What is the digestive function of the pancreas? What is the specificity of salivary amylase? Why does salivary amylase stop working in the stomach?

I learned which foods spiked my blood sugars and which ones didn’t. I learned that when I spiked my BGL’s it also meant my insulin levels would soar as well – and that was NOT something I wanted happening. It had been those silent, but deadly Insulin Spikes which had done the dama...
Where is the SPARC in adipose-tissue inflammation? The article discusses research on the role of a secreted protein, acidic, cysteine-rich (SPARC) glycoprotein in the growth of adipose-tissue and inflammation and insulin resistance. It references the study "Regulation of the Fibrosis and......
Dopamine is well recognized as a neurotransmitter in the brain, and regulates critical functions in a variety of peripheral systems. Growing research has also shown that dopamine acts as an important regulator of immune function. Many immune cells express dopamine receptors and other dopamine related ...
The evolution of CAR-T cell structure. There are five generations of CAR-T cells to date. scFv is currently the most commonly used targeting domain for CAR-T cells, and VHH is also emerging as a targeting domain for CAR-T cells with great potential. VH: heavy chain variable domain; VL...
(Kelley and Gardner2017). A study specifically targeting microwell morphology concluded that the concentration of secreted small molecules and macromolecules was two- to threefold higher in a narrow microwell than on a flat surface. The author concluded that the microwell culture system is better than...
Where is this structure located? What does thyroxin do? If you have too much or too little of this hormone, what is it termed and what are some symptoms associated with each of these terms. What is the typical site of origin of the hormone leptin? Which hormones are produced/secreted...
