To read the full abstract: PLoS Genet. 2020;16:e1008770.Præstholm et al. quantified by a genomics approach histone H3 acetylation – an epigenetic mark for DNase accessible chromatin – at thyroid hormone target gene enhancers to challenge the current model of genome binding action of T3 (type 1 action of thyroid hormone receptors (TR)) [1]. For this, they investigated genome-wide the liver of WT mice at hypothyroid and hyp...

Brief summary: In this experimental study, a transdermal polymeric microneedle (MN) patch for glucose-responsive closed-loop insulin and glucagon delivery was developed. In chemically-induced type 1 diabetes (T1D) mouse and minipig models, this glucose-responsive dual-hormone MN patch demonstrated tight regulation in blood glucose.The interplay between insulin and glucagon is essential for blood glucose regulation in individuals with or without diabetes....
