Cachexia is a common syndrome that affects malignant tumor-bearing patients, and is characterized by a severe imbalance in metabolic homeostasis, acting especially in glycemic homeostatic mechanisms. In previous studies, we demonstrate that solid Ehrlich tumor bearing mice (SET) showed diminished insulin secretion and higher insulin sensitivity when compared to control group. Furthermore,…
The cachexia syndrome is characterized by several homeostatic perturbations including depletion of muscle and fat tissue, hypoglycemia, accompanied by progressive wasting, weakness and anorexia. The cancer cachexia syndrome, which affects a large proportion of patients with solid tumors, is associated not only with decreasing quality of life but also with a shorter survival time and poor …
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a severe chronic disease of childhood and adolescence resulting from an autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic beta-cells. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress contributes to beta-cell dysfunction and death in type 1 diabetes. CHOP is an important pro-apoptotic transcription factor induced by ER stress. Dr. Cardozo's group have previously shown that pro-inflammator…
In previous study we showed cachexia establishment in solid Ehrlich carcinoma bearing (SET) mice from the tenth day of tumor inoculation which is associated with a severe decrease in insulin secretory capacity. This profile led us to evaluate the inflammatory condition of pancreatic islets in SET mice. The results showed that tumor bearing mice had increased protein expression of pro-infl…
