7. A 35-year-old villager with IDDM was examined in the hospital and assured theendocrinologist that he has kept strictly to the recommended diet during insulintreatment. The screening showed that the blood glucose concentration was6.2 mmol/L; HbA, level was 11.7% (norm 4-6%); no glucose or ketone bodieswere detected in the urine. After reviewing the results of laboratory studies,the attending physician was in doubt that the patient followed his nutritionalguidelines. Explain this doctor's query. For answer:a) name the reason for the blood HbA, increase;b) list the late complications of diabetes mellitus and explain the molecularmechanisms of their occurrence.

Insulin is the peptide hormone produced by the beta-cells of islets of Langerhans of the pancreas.…

O A) Acetyl-CoA carboxylase O B) HMG-CoA lyase O C) HMG-CoA reductase O D) Hormone-sensitive lipase O E) Lipoprotein lipase
Regarding the discussion of Case 2: Urea Cycle Disorders in Neonates: Six Case Reports. in patients with hyperammonemia, oral sodium benzoate was applied at 250-500 mg/kg/day. The rationale is that: Sodium benzoate interacts with glycine to form hippurate, which then provides a non-urea cycle pathway to remove excessive nitrogen waste by the kidneys. O Sodium benzoate interacts with glycine to form N-Acetyl Glutamate, which then stimulates the urea cycle pathway to remove excessive nitrogen waste by the kidneys. Sodium benzoate interacts with glutamate to form N-Acetyl Glutamate, which then stimulates the urea cycle pathway to remove excessive nitrogen waste by the kidneys. Sodium benzoate interacts with Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthase to form Carbamoyl Phosphate, which then stimulates the urea cycle pathway to remove excessive nitrogen waste by the kidneys.
