Uncoupling protein-2 messenger ribonucleic acid expression during very-low-calorie diet in obese premenopausal women.
Uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) is a mitochondrial protein expressed in a wide range of human tissues. By uncoupling respiration from ATP synthesis, UCP2 might be involved in the control of energy expenditure. We have investigated UCP2 gene expression in human adipose tissue. In eight subjects, we found a positive correlation (r = 0.91, P < 0.002) between subcutaneous and visceral fat depots UCP2 m...
متن کاملProtein metabolism in obese subjects during a very-low-energy diet.
We postulated that the return to nitrogen equilibrium after 3 wk of a negative balance during a very-low-calorie diet (VLCD) providing low-quality protein in obese subjects was due to availability of endogenously originating amino acids from a "pool" that, when depleted, would result in worsening balance. This should be reflected in altered kinetics of protein metabolism with the requirement fo...

متن کاملThe influence of very-low-calorie-diet on serum leptin, soluble leptin receptor, adiponectin and resistin levels in obese women.
The aim of our study was to determine whether adipocyte-derived hormones leptin, adiponectin and resistin contribute to the improvement of insulin sensitivity after very-low calorie diet (VLCD). Therefore, serum levels of these hormones were measured in fourteen obese females before and after three weeks VLCD and in seventeen age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Body mass index, HOMA index, s...
متن کاملEffect of hyperinsulinemia and very-low-calorie diet on interstitial cytokine levels in subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese women.
Type 2 diabetes and obesity are associated with an enhanced release of a number of adipocytokines. Hyperinsulinemia, frequently present in type 2 diabetes and obesity, might be one of the drivers of the enhanced production of adipocytokines. The aim of this study was to investigate the interstitial levels of cytokines in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCAT) in response to hyperinsulinemia and the...
