The Effect of Aerobic Continuous Training on Myonectin, Insulin Resistance and Liver Enzymes in Rats with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Background. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, is the most common reason of liver disorders that can be controlled by dieting and regular physical activity. Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of aerobic continuous training on serum levels of myonectin, insulin resistance and liver enzymes in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Methods. Thirty-four male W...
متن کاملUric acid and insulin sensitivity and risk of incident hypertension.
BACKGROUND Uric acid, insulin sensitivity, and endothelial dysfunction may be important in the development of hypertension. Corresponding circulating biomarkers are associated with risk of hypertension, but because these factors may be interrelated, whether they independently affect risk is unknown. METHODS In 1496 women aged 32 to 52 years without hypertension at baseline, we prospectively a...
متن کاملInsulin resistance, hypertension, and coronary heart disease.
The goals of this review are two-fold: to examine the evidence in support of a role for insulin resistance and compensatory hyperinsulinemia in the pathogenesis of essential hypertension, and to evaluate the hypothesis that insulin resistance and its manifestations play major roles in the development of coronary heart disease in patients with essential hypertension. In both instances, only expe...
متن کاملThe Endocrine Society Meeting: topics in insulin sensitivity and hypertension.
Signaling pathways mediating insulin sensitivity A series of new intracellular signaling pathways related to insulin action are being identified. John C. Lawrence (Charlottesville, VA) discussed the mTOR pathway. The immunosuppressant rapamycin inhibits cell growth by interfering with the function of a kinase, termed mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). mTOR is defined by high affinity binding...
متن کاملHypertension genes are genetic markers for insulin sensitivity and resistance.
Insulin resistance is a determinant of blood pressure variation and risk factor for hypertension. Because insulin resistance and blood pressure cosegregate in Mexican American families, we thus investigated the association between variations in 9 previously reported hypertension genes (ACE, AGT, AGTRI, ADDI, NPPA, ADDRB2, SCNN1A, GNB3, and NOS3) and insulin resistance. Families were ascertained...
