B Davani, N Portwood, G Bryzgalova, MK Reimer, T … - Diabetes, 2004 - Am Diabetes Assoc Glucocorticoids are diabetogenic hormones because they decrease glucose uptake, increase
hepatic glucose production, and inhibit insulin release. To study the long-term effects of increased
glucocorticoid sensitivity in β-cells, we studied transgenic mice overexpressing the rat ... Cited by 20 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 5 versions
S Gremlich, R Roduit, B Thorens - Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997 - ASBMB GLUT2 expression is strongly decreased in glucose-unresponsive pancreatic β cells of diabetic
rodents. This decreased expression is due to circulating factors distinct from insulin or
glucose. Here we evaluated the effect of palmitic acid and the synthetic glucocorticoid ... Cited by 68 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions

(NIDDM) in rats is associated with loss of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and a reduction
in both GLUT-2-positive ftcells and high K. glucose transport. To determine if the ... Cited by 21 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 8 versions
S Ullrich, S Berchtold, F Ranta, G Seebohm, G Henke, … - Diabetes, 2005 - Am Diabetes Assoc Glucocorticoid excess predisposes to the development of diabetes, at least in part through impairment
of insulin secretion. The underlying mechanism has remained elusive. We show here that dexamethasone
upregulates transcription and expression of the serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible ... Cited by 50 - Related articles - All 5 versions
