High intensity interval training does not change the FGF-21 gene expression of liver but reduces the serum TNF-α in diabetic rats
Diabetes is a common metabolic disease. In diabetic patients glucose uptake is reduced and FGF-21 plays an important role in glucose uptake, alsoTNF-α is an inflammatory factor that increases in diabetes. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of 6 weeks of HIIT training on the gene expression FGF-21 in the liver and the serum TNF-α level of male diabetic rats. For this purpose...
متن کاملBody Condition Indices Predict Reproductive Success but Not Survival in a Sedentary, Tropical Bird
Body condition may predict individual fitness because those in better condition have more resources to allocate towards improving their fitness. However, the hypothesis that condition indices are meaningful proxies for fitness has been questioned. Here, we ask if intraspecific variation in condition indices predicts annual reproductive success and survival. We monitored a population of Neochmia...
متن کاملBody condition but not dietary restriction prolongs lifespan in a semelparous capital breeder.
Effects of diet on longevity are complex because acquired resources are shared among growth, reproduction and somatic maintenance. We simplify these axes by examining how dietary restriction and competitive contexts affect longevity using semelparous males of the Australian redback spider (Latrodectus hasselti). Plastic development of L. hasselti males results in trade-offs of body condition ag...
متن کاملMorphine Reduces Expression of TRPV1 Receptors in the Amygdala but not in the Hippocampus of Male Rats
Background: Chronic use of opioids usually results in physical dependence. The underlying mechanisms for this dependence are still being evaluated. Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) are important receptors of pain perception. Their role during opioid dependence has not been studied well. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of morphine-dependence on the expressio...
متن کاملExtreme defoliation reduces tree growth but not C and N storage in a winter-deciduous species.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is a growing concern about how forests will respond to increased herbivory associated with climate change. Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) limitation are hypothesized to cause decreasing growth after defoliation, and eventually mortality. This study examines the effects of a natural and massive defoliation by an insect on mature trees' C and N storage, which have rarely be...
