Adiponectin Enhances Mouse Fetal Fat Deposition
Maternal obesity increases offspring birth weight and susceptibility to obesity. Adiponectin is an adipocyte-secreted hormone with a prominent function in maintaining energy homeostasis. In contrast to adults, neonatal blood adiponectin levels are positively correlated with anthropometric parameters of adiposity. This study was designed to investigate the role of adiponectin in maternal obesity...
متن کاملFat Factors Controlling Adiponectin Expression
The epidemic of obesity has become among the most serious health problems worldwide because the weight gain carries a high risk of developing life-threatening diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. Recent work has highlighted the key role of adipokines in the adverse clinical consequences of excessive fat mass. The increase in circulating lev...
متن کاملHigh fat diet enhances cardiac abnormalities in SHR rats: Protective role of heme oxygenase-adiponectin axis
BACKGROUND High dietary fat intake is a major risk factor for development of cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunction including obesity, cardiomyopathy and hypertension. METHODS The present study was designed to examine effect of high fat (HF) diet on cardio-vascular structure and function in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), fed HF diet for 15 weeks, a phenotype designed to mimic metabo...
متن کاملFat Deposition in Ruminants
Fat deposition inescapably accompanies skeletal growth and muscle accretion. In early growth deposition of fat and protein occur simultaneously, but beyond a certain body weight protein accretion becomes negligible, and fat gain becomes a large and constant fraction of weight gain. This pattern of tissue development forms the basis of the most successful current strategy for minimising carcass ...
متن کاملCigarette smoke enhances proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition by human fetal airway smooth muscle.
Cigarette smoke is a common environmental insult associated with increased risk of developing airway diseases such as wheezing and asthma in neonates and children. In adults, asthma involves airway remodeling characterized by increased airway smooth muscle (ASM) cell proliferation and increased extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, as well as airway hyperreactivity. The effects of cigarette sm...
