3. Insulin
   the reduced insulin sensitivity characteristic of Type II diabetes), resulting in decreased glucose absorption. In either case, there is 'cell starvation', weight loss, sometimes extreme. In a few cases, there is a defect in the release of insulin from the pancreas. Either way, the effect is the same: elevated blood glucose levels. Activation of insulin receptors leads to internal cellular mechanisms which directly affect glucose uptake by regulating the number and operation of protein molecules in the cell membrane which transport glucose into the cell. Two types of tissues are most strongly influenced by insulin: muscle cells (myocytes) and fat cells

8. Heat-shock protein
   cells under non-stressful conditions, simply "monitoring" the cell's proteins. Some examples of their role as "monitors" are that they carry old proteins to the cell's "recycling bin" and they help newly synthesised proteins fold properly. These activities are part of a cell's own repair system, called the "cellular stress response" or the "heat-shock response." The function of heat-shock proteins is similar in virtually all living organisms, from bacteria to humans. Heat-shock proteins are of potential interest to cancer researchers, based on research that has shown that animals may respond to cancer "vaccinations." Tumor cells were "attenuated" (or weakened) and injected in

13. Formaldehyde
    aromatic compounds, and it can undergo electrophilic addition reactions with alkenes. In the presence of basic catalysts, formaldehyde undergoes a Cannizaro reaction to prouduce formic acid and methanol. Formaldehyde reversibly polymerizes to produce its cyclic trimer, 1,3,5-trioxane or the linear polymer polyoxymethylene. Formation of these substances makes formaldehyde's gas behavior differ substantially from the ideal gas law, especially at high pressure or low temperature. Formaldehyde is readily oxidized by atmospheric oxygen to form formic acid. Formaldehyde solutions must be kept tightly sealed to prevent this from happening in storage. Production Industrially, formaldehyde is produced by the catalytic oxidation of methanol. The
