...-related protein and G6pc2 -null mice were reported to exhibit decreased blood glucose levels. Two recent genome-wide association studies have implicated a role for G6PC2 in regulation of FPGlevels in the general European population and reported the strongest association with the rs560887 SNP. The purpose...

...Donald J. Naismith; Ghanim S. Mahdi; Nassir N. Shakir The alleged beneficial properties of barley in the treatment of diabetes were investigated. Rates of growth, water and food (digestible energy) intakes, and blood glucose concentrations were measured before and after the induction of diabetes...

...Ghanim S. Mahdi; Donald J. Naismith In adult diabetic rats, a diet containing barley had a modulating effect on the symptoms of diabetes (blood glucose concentration and water consumption) when compared with a starch or sucrose-based diet. It was postulated that the beneficial effect of barley...
