Loss of SFRP4 Alters Body Size, Food Intake, and Energy Expenditure in Diet-Induced Obese Male Mice.
Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFRP4) is an extracellular regulator of the wingless-type mouse mammary tumor virus integration site family (WNT) pathway. SFRP4 has been implicated in adipocyte dysfunction, obesity, insulin resistance, and impaired insulin secretion in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, the exact role of SFRP4 in regulating whole-body metabolism and glucose homeostasi...
متن کاملA pair-feeding study reveals that a Y5 antagonist causes weight loss in diet-induced obese mice by modulating food intake and energy expenditure.
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is thought to have a significant role in the physiological control of energy homeostasis. We recently reported that an NPY Y5 antagonist inhibits body weight gain in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice, with a moderate reduction in food intake. To clarify the mechanism of the antiobesity effects of the Y5 antagonist, we conducted a pair-feeding study in DIO mice. The Y5 antagonis...
متن کاملAnalysis of energy expenditure in diet-induced obese rats.
Development of obesity in animals is affected by energy intake, dietary composition, and metabolism. Useful models for studying this metabolic problem are Sprague-Dawley rats fed low-fat (LF) or high-fat (HF) diets beginning at 28 days of age. Through experimental design, their dietary intakes of energy, protein, vitamins, and minerals per kg body weight (BW) do not differ in order to eliminate...
متن کاملPeripheral oxytocin suppresses food intake and causes weight loss in diet-induced obese rats.
Growing evidence suggests that oxytocin plays an important role in the regulation of energy balance and that central oxytocin administration induces weight loss in diet-induced obese (DIO) animals. To gain a better understanding of how oxytocin mediates these effects, we examined feeding and neuronal responses to oxytocin in animals rendered obese following exposure to either a high-fat (HFD) o...
متن کاملEnergy intake, diet composition, energy expenditure, and body fatness of adolescents in northern Greece.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to examine energy intake, energy expenditure, diet composition, and obesity of adolescents in Northern Greece. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES Anthropometric measurements were taken for all participants. Height, weight, and skinfold thickness at two sites were measured. BMI and percentage body fat were calculated. Energy intake and macronutrient and mic...
