Leptin and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
(IntechOpen, 2019)
Emerging research has highlighted the importance of leptin in fetal growth anddevelopment, independent of its essential role in the regulation of feeding andenergy metabolism. Leptin is now considered an important signaling ...
Hypothalamic obesity: a pivotal role of endogenous glucocorticoid
(Nova Publishers, 2010)
It is known that the neonatal treatment of rats with monosodium L-glutamate (MSG) induces several metabolic and hormonal abnormalities, resulting in enhanced adiposity and hyperleptinemia, among others. Our studies explored ...
Lactic acid bacteria activities to promote health benefits
(Transworld Research Network, 2011)
The activity of the probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been widely documented and can be divided according to their nutritional, physiological and antimicrobial effects. These observations have led to the development ...
Unhealthy diet intake during the peri-natal and adult periods: detrimental neuroendocrine and metabolic effects
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc, 2012)
Consumption of unhealthy diets (so called ¨modern diets¨) in early/late life might play a key role in the development of obesity, metabolic syndrome (MS) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Due to the epidemic growth profile of ...
Fructose and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2012)
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an important emerging public health problem which is expanding worldwide. NAFLD is the liver component of the metabolic syndrome, frequently associated with obesity, type 2 ...
Peroxisome proliferator receptor gamma and the control of glucose metabolism: insights from knockout mice
(Elsevier, 2019)
Peroxisome proliferator receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a nuclear receptor first identified for its role in adipose tissue differentiation. Two PPARγ isoforms were identified that differed at the amino terminus with the PPARγ2 ...
Ghrelin gene-related peptides modulate rat white adiposity
(Elsevier Inc, 2007)
It is known that ghrelin and des‐N‐octanoyl (desacyl) ghrelin modulate food intake and adipogenesis in vivo. However, desacyl ghrelin represents the majority of ghrelin forms found in the circulation. The present study ...
Long-Term Fructose Intake Increases Adipogenic Potential: Evidence of Direct Effects of Fructose on Adipocyte Precursor Cells
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2017)
We have previously addressed that fructose rich diet (FRD) intake for three weeks increases the adipogenic potential of stromal vascular fraction cells from the retroperitoneal adipose tissue (RPAT). We have now evaluated ...
Gastrointestinal nematode effects on grazing dairy herds during development and its impact on production
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2009)
Most studies about the effects of gastrointestinal nematodes on bovines have been performed on beef herds, and relatively few trials have evaluated the effect of parasitism on dairy heifers and cows. We reviewed the results ...
