Circulating ANGPTL8/Betatrophin Is Increased in Obesity and Reduced after Exercise Training

OBJECTIVE ANGPTL8 is a liver and adipose tissue produced protein that regulates the level of triglyceride in plasma as well as glucose homeostasis. This study was designed to evaluate the level of ANGPTL8 in obese and non-obese subjects before and after exercise training. METHODS A total of 82 non-obese and 62 adult obese were enrolled in this study. Subjects underwent a three months of exerc...

Circulating adrenomedullin is increased after heart transplantation.

OBJECTIVE Adrenomedullin (ADM), secreted by the failing human heart, is a newly discovered potent endogenous vasorelaxing and natriuretic peptide that may play a role in cardiorenal regulation. No data are available on ADM in heart-transplant recipients (Htx) and the aim of this study was to determine the short- and long-term responses of ADM after heart transplantation. METHODS Circulating A...

Elevated intramyocellular lipid concentration in obese subjects is not reduced after diet and exercise training.

To determine the effects of weight loss on intramyocellular energy substrates, vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were taken from six obese subjects (body mass index 34 +/- 5 kg/m(2)) before, after 15 wk of energy restriction (ER; -700 kcal/day), and after a further average 20.7 +/- 1.6 wk of endurance training plus low-fat diet (ET-LFD). Body weight fell from 100 +/- 6 to 89 +/- 6 kg during ER a...
