Abstract:
Insulin resistance biomarkers and related methods of using the biomarkers are provided. The biomarkers may be blood biomarkers and include C-peptide, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein 2 (IGFBP-2), and Leptin. Also provided is a method of reducing the effect of prolonged physical inactivity on insulin resistance in a subject who is experiencing prolonged physical inactivity, or who is expected to experience prolonged physical inactivity in the near future.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides a robust, sensitive, and specific assay for the detection and measurement of periostin levels in samples obtained from human patients having, or suspected of having an IL-13-mediated disease or disorder. The disclosure further provides novel antiperiostin monoclonal antibodies that recognize at least isoforms 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8 of human periostin, and assay kits comprising one or more of these antibodies.
