Assessing uterine receptivity in 2001: ultrasonographic glances at the new millennium.

abstract：:High concentrations of glucose induce insulin resistance and impair insulin secretion in a manner that mirrors type 2 diabetes, a phenomenon known as glucose toxicity. High concentrations of hexosamines mimic these effects, leading to the hypothesis that cells use hexosamine flux as a glucose- and satiety-sensing path...
