Which statement best describes human insulin that is produced by by genetically engineered bacteria?
Genetically engineered insulin may have fewer side effects than the insulin previously extracted from the pancreases of other animals. This is because genetic engineering inserts human genes such as the gene for insulin production into the DNA of bacteria. As a result, the bacteria that produces human insulin, when used by diabetics, should produce fewer side effects.
What are side effect of insulin resistant?
The side effects will be that the control of blood sugar levels will be difficult and may lead to diabetic coma
What side effects does this drug have?
Since insulin is the most common medication for diabetes, I will assume this is the medication you are asking about side effects for. The website www.medicinenet.com has a list of side effects for injected insulin.
What is a new method of getting insulin?
A new method of getting insulin is an insulin inhaler. The inhaler gives you your needed dose but long term effects have not been tested.
What causes high insulin levels What are the side effects of high insulin levels?
High insulin levels are usually caused by eating too much high glycemic carbohydrates, those carbohydrates that raise blood sugar rapidly. The body produces insulin to clear the blood of glucose. Also can be caused by high copper levels and high cortisol levels - can be from stress of the mind or body.
What is the Fat storing enzyme?
Insulin is a pancreatic hormone best known for its effects on glucose metabolism and its ability to lower blood sugar. But equally important are insulin effects on fat or lipid metabolism.
What is vetsulin made up of?
the side effects of vetsulin: Caution should be exercised when changing from one insulin product to another. Any change in insulin should be made cautiously and only under a veterinarian's supervision. Changes in insulin strength, manufacturer, type, species (animal, human) or method of manufacture (rDNA versus animal-source insulin) may result in the need for a change in dosage.
What effects would the sympathetic and parasympathetic system have on insulin secretion?
Studies seems to indicate that the sympathetic system decreases insulin secretion, while the parasympathetic system increases insulin secretion.
When target cells are less sensitive to the effects of insulin in Type II diabetes suggests?
The cause of this resistance to insulin is unknown, although a reduction in the number of insulin receptors may be the problem.
How do you get help for Polycycstic Ovarian Syndrome?
PCOS is connected to insulin resistance. When a person eats a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (which is basically a long chain of glucose molecules hooked together), the body had to work hard to handle the sugar by producing insulin. Eventually the cells in their body becomes insensitive to the effects of the insulin (insulin resistance). To handle this problem of insulin resistance their body begins to produce even higher levels of insulin. This continues until their pancreas reaches the maximum amount of insulin it can produce, and when the insulin resistance increases again, their blood sugar begins to rise out of control. This effects the glands as they are a communication system on to the other and effects the ovaries. You can read more at www.mcvitamins.com/pcos.htm
How does somatotropin affect metabolism?
Somatotropin is the same as growth hormone and it has a range of effects, including effects similar to insulin.
Diabetic Needles?
People with diabetes need to inject insulin shots using syringes and needles. It is important to select needles and syringes with the appropriate gauge specifications as prescribed by the doctor. Precision is important because the slightest variations in the volume of insulin injections can have significant side effects.
