Abstract: Rubiscolin-6 is an opioid peptide derived from plant ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco). It has been demonstrated that opioid receptors could control glucose homeostasis in skeletal muscle independent of insulin action. Therefore, Rubiscolin-6 may be involved… read more here.

Abstract: Purpose 99mTc-pyrophosphate (99mTc-PYP) uptake in the skeletal muscles is minimal in patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) when assessed qualitatively and quantitatively. We previously demonstrated moderate- to high-grade 99mTc-PYP uptake in the subcutaneous abdominal fat… read more here.
