Chemicals that affect the biological clock may help in the treatment of diabetes






Researchers have discovered biologists at the University of San Diego chemicals offer new ways and promising for the development of pharmaceutical drugs for the treatment of metabolic disorders Kalnmt II diabetes, and considered the results of previous research to snap to focus on the chemicals do not cause and directly control the production of glucose in the liver but also affect the activity of protein main (Krebtokrom) that controls the internal mechanisms of the activities of daily day and night (circadian).

I suppose many scientists link the biological clock disorder injury and excessive obesity, diabetes, where the injured rat experiments with both disorders as a result of altered biological clock.

Was developed chemical former, which take the form of small molecules to pharmaceutical drugs control the timer mechanisms of protein Krebtokrom and thus suppress the production of glucose in the liver, where he developed the human mechanisms of chemical vital to ensure the continuous supply of glucose and flowing to the brain at night and the absence of food intake or exercise of any activity, where indicate human hormones in late stages of the night to fasting status, and by daylight and the start of his rights to close the clock signals associated with fasting and stimulates the liver to produce more glucose.

Link between researchers in their study of the physiological effect of protein Alkrebtokrom and organized for the timing of the procedure for the periodic patterns of eating any time the status of fasting and night eating during the day and thus determine the rate constant of production of glucose in the bloodstream.
