the effect of inulin on lifespan related gene expression and gut microbiota in inrp5545 tm3 mutant drosophila melanogaster a preliminary study
Nutrients, 2019Co-Authors: Yuling Dong, Weichao Yang, Beibei Du, Hui XuAbstract:Inulin is considered an efficient prebiotic and is beneficial for metabolic diseases via promoting intestinal probiotic enrichment and the metabolites of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). However, the effect of inulin on patients with InR deficiencies has seldom been reported. In this study, the lifespan, related gene expression, and gut microbiota of InRp5545/TM3 (Insulin receptor mutant) Drosophila melanogaster under inulin treatment were investigated. The results showed that the lifespan was extended in only males and not in females. Furthermore, distinctly different patterns of gene expression were found between males and females, especially in the Insulin/Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-like signalling (IIS) and target of rapamycin (TOR) pathways. Additionally, as a link between inulin and lifespan responses, the gut microbiota was distinctly separated by gender in both the standard diet group and the inulin treatment group, and the relationship between lifespan and the gut microbiota community was stronger in male flies than in females. This study provides preliminary evidence for the gender-dependent lifespan responses to inulin in Insulin signalling-deficient Drosophila. However, controls such as wild-type and TM3 flies, and more InR mutant strains with different genetic backgrounds need to be further investigated to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the phenomenon.

Economic Impact of Converting from Pen and 10-mL Vial to 3-mL Vial for Insulin Delivery in a Hospital Setting.
Hospital Pharmacy, 2014Co-Authors: Eby Elizabeth, Lee J. Smolen, Amber Pitts, Linda A. Krueger, Doneen GrimmAbstract:Purpose: To compare the impact on acquisition cost and purchased volume of rapid-and short-acting Insulins following conversion from 3-mL disposable pens and 10-mL vials to 3-mL vials for individual patient supply (IPS) in a hospital setting. Methods: On February 1, 2010, St. Joseph’s Hospital and Medical Center of Dignity Health in Phoenix, Arizona, converted from pens to 3-mL vials for IPS subcutaneous (SC) injection and from 10-mL short-acting Insulin vials to 3-mL vials for intravenous (IV) preparation. Pharmacy purchasing data were analyzed over 6-month periods before and after conversion (March 1 through August 31, 2009, and March 1 through August 31, 2010). Results: Before conversion, acquisition costs were $27,866 for 5,335 mL of rapid-acting Insulins and $53,336 for 26,310 mL of short-acting Insulins. After conversion, Insulin acquisition costs were $24,211 for 5,850 mL of rapid-acting Insulins (13.1% decrease in costs, 9.7% rise in volume), with cost reduction attributable to the lower cost of 3...

Results: Before conversion, acquisition costs were $27,866 for 5,335 mL of rapid-acting insu- lins and $53,336 for 26,310 mL of short-acting Insulins. After conversion, Insulin acquisition costs were $24,211 for 5,850 mL of rapid-acting Insulins (13.1% decrease in costs, 9.7% rise in volume), with cost reduction attributable to the lower cost of 3-mL vials. Acquisition costs were $17,395 for 14,700 mL of short-acting Insulins after conversion (67.4% decrease in costs, 44.1% reduction in volume), with cost reduction attributable to lower cost of 3-mL vials versus pens for IPS SC injections and 10-mL vials for IV preparation. The reduction in purchased volumes of short-acting Insulins may be partly due to decreased Insulin use in IV preparation. Conclusion: Conversion from pens and 10-mL vials to 3-mL vials for rapid- and short- acting Insulins resulted in reduced acquisition costs and decreased use of short-acting Insulin in IV preparations.
