Differentiating Gastrointestinal Pathogens from IBD and IBS
Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as well as infections from GI pathogens can present very similar symptoms. A host of tests have been developed to aid in the differentiation between IBD and IBS, such as calprotectin and lact...
Toxicology
Drug-Induced Organ Injury Toxicological side effects are a common obstacle in drug development pipelines and often manifest in site-specific damage to vital organs, including the liver, kidney and heart. Estimates of compound attrition from failure to meet safety endpoints are as high as 45% in pre...
Understanding the Role of Energy Homeostasis in Diabetes
Introduction The prevalence of diabetes and obesity has been on the rise for several decades and research has demonstrated that other parts of the body, including the cardiovascular system and kidneys, can be affected by diabetes. The key to understanding the relationship between diabetes and the...

Heart Disease Biomarkers in Diabetes Research
Introduction Cardiovascular disease (CVD) encompasses a constellation of diseases related to the heart and circulatory system. Despite efforts to understand and combat CVD complications from diabetes, 65% of diabetics will pass away from cardiovascular issues1. Part 2 of The Common Denominator eBoo...
Stool-Based Biomarkers to Differentiate Between IBD and IBS
What are IBD and IBS? Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are two different gastrointestinal tract issues affecting millions of people every day. Although there is some overlap between symptoms of IBD and IBS, differences still remain in regards to pathologies, risks...
How Runners' High and Leptin Play a Role in Metabolism
  As a runner, I’ve long been intrigued by what gets me high during my runs. Endorphins, you say? Yes, I’m well aware of those and bless those endorphins. But, I have to say, there’s nothing quite as satiating as a good run and as a scientist by training, I was convinced that there was more ...
Investigating Bioactive Leptin in Obesity Research
The Biology of Leptin Leptin is a hormone composed of 167 amino acids and is primarily produced by adipocytes, therefore providing a signal to the energy state of organisms. By binding to the leptin receptor, the analyte influences activity within the JAK-STAT pathway and thereby regulates energy m...
The Significance of Bioactive Leptin in Obesity Research
May 3, 2016 Leptin resistance is a challenging topic of conversation in obesity. It is defined by a state in which the body does not display any adapted response to high endogenous or exogenous levels of leptin while continuing to maintain excess body weight1. This may be due to a decreased uptak...

Date: August 16, 2016 Author: Andrea Tarbet, Product Marketing Associate at ALPCO Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors are not the only kinase inhibitors to enter the fight against B cell cancers. Since there are numerous subtypes of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), p...
Regulating Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals in Consumer Products
Date: September 27, 2016 Author: Andrea Tarbet, Product Marketing Associate at ALPCO From cosmetics to water bottles, endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have surfaced in our everyday lives. EDCs are compounds that can interfere with the endocrine system’s ability to help an organism develop...
Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals and Biomarkers
Introduction Humans and the environment are exposed to numerous chemicals every day1. Each year, about 2,000 new chemicals are manufactured in the U.S.2. Research findings over the years have shown how some chemicals known as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can interact with the endocrine sys...
Choosing the Relevant GLP-1 Species to Study
  A better understanding of incretins has led to tremendous therapeutic advances in the field of type 2 diabetes1. These hormones are released from the gut in response to food ingestion and lead to the stimulation of pancreatic β-cells which then release insulin in a glucose-concentration de...
Adipokines and Adipose Tissue-Liver Crosstalk in Energy Metabolism
Research over the past several decades examining adipokines and adipose tissue-liver crosstalk in energy metabolism has revealed that adipose tissue is a very important metabolically active endocrine organ1. White, brown, and beige adipose tissue generate and secrete adipokines, such as adiponectin ...
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Biosimilars in Autoimmune Diseases
Anti-TNF-alpha biologics have been proven to be effective treatments for autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)1. Rising healthcare costs as well as patent expirations, however, have prompted the development of biosimilars, such as the infliximab b...
The Generation and Function of Active GLP-1
The Generation and Function of Active GLP-1 Active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a member of the incretin hormone family and is generated as a result of post translational modifications during proglucagon processing1,2. Active GLP-1 plays a key role in the incretin effect and is vital for main...
