Association of some dietary intakes, anthropometric measurements and insulin resistance with the relative P53 gene expression in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue in obese, and non-obese subjects
Background and Objectives: The P53 is one of the genes involved in weight management. This study investigated associations of dietary intakes, anthropometric measurements and insulin resistance with relative P53 gene expressions. Materials & Methods: Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) were collected from 151 individuals, aging nearly 40 years, who underwent el...
متن کاملBrown Adipose Tissue in Morbidly Obese Subjects
BACKGROUND Cold-stimulated adaptive thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) to increase energy expenditure is suggested as a possible therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity. We have recently shown high prevalence of BAT in adult humans, which was inversely related to body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage (BF%), suggesting that obesity is associated with lower BAT activity. ...
متن کاملEpicardial adipose tissue is associated with visceral fat, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance in menopausal women.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Epicardial adipose tissue has been associated with several obesity-related parameters and with insulin resistance. Echocardiographic assessment of this tissue is an easy and reliable marker of cardiometabolic risk. However, there are insufficient studies on the relationship between epicardial fat and insulin resistance during the postmenopausal period, when cardiovas...
متن کاملThe effect of aerobic exercise on epicardial adipose tissue, insulin resistance, and some liver enzymes in high-fat diet-induced obesity male wistar rat
Background and Aim: Due to the prevalence and socio-economic consequences of obesity in mortality, cardiovascular (CAD) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease the effectiveness of aerobic exercise on epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), insulin resistance (IR) and some liver enzymes of high-fat diet-induced obesity male wistar rats was investigated. Methods: Thirty-two male Wistar rats with an averag...
متن کاملAdipose macrophage infiltration is associated with insulin resistance and vascular endothelial dysfunction in obese subjects.
OBJECTIVE Experimental studies suggest that adipose inflammation is etiologically linked to obesity-induced systemic disease. Our goal was to characterize the state of inflammation in human fat in relation to vascular function and metabolic parameters in obese individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS We collected subcutaneous abdominal fat in 77 obese subjects (BMI >or=30 kg/m(2)) and quantified adip...
