SPINA Carb: a simple mathematical model supporting fast in-vivo estimation of insulin sensitivity and beta cell function

Abstract Modelling insulin-glucose homeostasis may provide novel functional insights.In particular, simple models are clinically useful if they yield diagnostic methods.Examples include the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI).However, limitations of these approaches have been criticised.

The role of Atg16 in autophagy, anthocyanin biosynthesis, and programmed cell death in leaves of the lace plant (Aponogeton madagascariensis).

Aponogeton madagascariensis, commonly known as the lace plant, produces leaves that form perforations by programmed cell death (PCD).Leaf development is divided into several stages beginning with "pre-perforation" furled leaves enriched with red pigmentation from anthocyanins.The leaf blade is characterized by a series of grids known as areoles bou
