Oral Glutamine Supplementation Protects Female Mice from Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis.
BACKGROUND Genetic factors, a diet rich in fat and sugar, and an impaired intestinal barrier function are critical in the development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The nonessential amino acid glutamine (Gln) has been suggested to have protective effects on intestinal barrier function but also against the development of liver diseases of various etiologies. OBJECTIVE The effect of or...
متن کاملEffect of 6 Weeks of Quercetin Supplementation on Expression of Some Tumor Angiogenesis Markers in Female Mice with Breast Cancer
Introduction: Slowing down the process of angiogenesis in the tumor tissue is an emerging area in the treatment of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of quercetin supplementation on the expression of key angiogenesis factors in the tumor tissue of mice with breast cancer. Methods: Sixteen female BALB /c mice were injected subcutaneously with estrogen receptor...
متن کاملConcomitant Intake of Quercetin with a Grain-Based Diet Acutely Lowers Postprandial Plasma Glucose and Lipid Concentrations in Pigs
Treatment goals of diabetes mellitus type 2 (DMT2) include glycemic control and reduction of nonglycemic risk factors, for example, dyslipidemia. Quercetin, a plant-derived polyphenol, often discussed for possible antidiabetic effects, was investigated for acute postprandial glucose- and lipid-lowering effects in healthy growing pigs. Male pigs (n=16, body weight=BW 25-30 kg) were fed flavonoid...
متن کاملQuercetin Induces Hepatic Lipid Omega-Oxidation and Lowers Serum Lipid Levels in Mice
Elevated circulating lipid levels are known risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In order to examine the effects of quercetin on lipid metabolism, mice received a mild-high-fat diet without (control) or with supplementation of 0.33% (w/w) quercetin for 12 weeks. Gas chromatography and (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance were used to quantitatively measure serum lipid profiles. Whole geno...
متن کاملPlasma Concentrations of Oral Metronidazole in the Early Post-Laparotomy Periods
Background: The bioavailability of metronidazole after oral ingestion, in ordinary conditions, is quite similar to intravenous administration of the drug. However, the degree of its absorption is not known in the early periods after laparotomy. Objective: To determine plasma levels of metronidazole in pediatric patients following elective abdominal surgery. Methods: The study group was compri...
