Abstract
Decreasing of the insulin concentration and increasing of the C-peptide level in blood serum of 72 workers of cryolytes industries detected by radioimmunilogical method. These changes were caused by the fluorine intoxication of workers.

Topical fluorides: effects on physiologic and biochemical processes
The ingestion of fluoride from dentifrices or mouthrinses can contribute substantially to the total daily intake of the ion, even in communities that provide optimally fluoridated drinking water. It is concluded that the frequent and unsupervised use of these products by children six years of age or younger, especially those living in

Elevated serum fluoride levels in perimenopausal women are related to the components of metabolic syndrome.
OBJECTIVE: Increased fluoride levels can lead to numerous complications, including skeletal effects, cardiotoxicity, endocrine dysfunction, neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between serum fluoride levels and MetS or its individual components, and to assess the diagnostic usefulness of fluoride as a factor contributing to

Effect of fluoridated water on plasma insulin levels and glucose homeostasis in rats with renal deficiency.
Glucose intolerance in fluorosis areas and when fluoride is administered for the treatment of osteoporosis has been reported. Controlled fluoridation of drinking water is regarded as a safe and effective measure to control dental caries. However, the effect on glucose homeostasis was not studied so far. The aim of this

Fundamental and applied studies on transport and metabolism of electrolytes and glucose--aim to contact with molecular biology. [Article in Japanese]
The authors' research focuses on polyuria, natriuresis, glucosuria, glycemia, and renal calcification in occupational lead poisoning and endemic fluorosis. Changes in electrolyte mobilization and in glucose metabolism and transport following the administration of lead compounds or fluoride were examined to elucidate these mechanisms. The results suggest fundamental approaches to the

Effect of sodium fluoride on bone biomechanical and histomorphometric parameters and on insulin signaling and insulin sensitivity in ovariectomized rats
Osteoporosis is a systemic disease characterized by bone degradation and decreased bone mass that promotes increased bone fragility and eventual fracture risk. Studies have investigated the use of sodium fluoride (NaF) for the treatment of osteoporosis. However, fluoride can alter glucose homeostasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate

Fluoride & Insulin
Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that is responsible for maintaining appropriate levels of glucose in the blood. Insulin allows the body’s cells to take up glucose from the blood, and either use it as an energy source or store it as glycogen. Blood glucose levels in diabetics

Fluoride & Impaired Glucose Tolerance
The proper regulation of blood glucose levels is essential to good health. When the body's ability to regulate blood glucose levels falters, as occurs in diabetes mellitus, chronic elevated glucose levels (hyperglycemia) can lead to serious complications. These consequences include damage to the kidneys, nervous system, cardiovascular system, retina, legs
