Gender-related differences in mouse hepatic ethanol metabolism.
The effect of an acute oral load of 2 g ethanol/kg body weight was studied in a group of male and female 10-wk-old C3H/HeNCrj (C3H/He) mice to investigate gender change throughout differences of the hepatic ethanol metabolism of mice. The following parameters were measured in the serum from 0 h to 3 h after the start of the experiment: ethanol, acetaldehyde, and acetate. Their concentrations in...
متن کاملGender differences in fat metabolism.
Women generally have a higher percentage of body fat than men. Also, women store more fat in the gluteal-femoral region, whereas men store more fat in the visceral (abdominal) depot. This review focuses on differences in regional fatty acid storage, mobilization and oxidation that may contribute to gender-related differences in body fat distribution. There are pronounced regional differences in...
متن کاملEthanol impairs post-prandial hepatic protein metabolism.
The effects of acute ethanol ingestion on whole body and hepatic protein metabolism in humans are not known. To simulate social drinking, we compared the effects of the association of a mixed meal (632 kcal, 17% amino acids, 50% glucose, 33% lipids) with a bottle of either table wine (ethanol content 71 g) or water on the estimates ([1-14C]-leucine infusion) of whole body protein breakdown, oxi...
متن کاملPregnane X Receptor-Humanized Mice Recapitulate Gender Differences in Ethanol Metabolism but Not Hepatotoxicity.
Both human and rodent females are more susceptible to developing alcoholic liver disease following chronic ethanol (EtOH) ingestion. However, little is known about the relative effects of acute EtOH exposure on hepatotoxicity in female versus male mice. The nuclear receptor pregnane X receptor (PXR; NR1I2) is a broad-specificity sensor with species-specific responses to toxic agents. To examine...
متن کاملEvaluation of gender-related differences in response to oxidative stress in toxoplasma gondii positive serum
Purpose: Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) is the causative agent of toxoplasmosis. It infects up to one third of the human population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of T. gondii infection on induction of oxidative stress in serum of infected men and women. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was carried out on 150 individuals who had referred to our center ...
