Respiratory muscle weakness in the Zucker diabetic fatty rat.
The obesity epidemic is considered one of the most serious public health problems of the modern world. Physical therapy is the most accessible form of treatment; however, compliance is a major obstacle due to exercise intolerance and dyspnea. Respiratory muscle atrophy is a cause of dyspnea, yet little is known of obesity-induced respiratory muscle dysfunction. Our objective was to investigate ...
متن کاملImproved metabolic status and insulin sensitivity in obese fatty (fa/fa) Zucker rats and Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats treated with the thiazolidinedione, MCC-555.
1. We examined the effect of chronic (21 days) oral treatment with the thiazolidinedione, MCC-555 ((+)-5-[[6-(2-fluorbenzyl)-oxy-2-naphy]methyl]-2,4-thiazo lid inedione) on metabolic status and insulin sensitivity in obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats and Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats which display an impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or overt diabetic symptoms, respectively. 2. MCC-555 treatment to o...
متن کاملInhibiting glycosphingolipid synthesis improves glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in animal models of type 2 diabetes.
Previous reports have shown that glycosphingolipids can modulate the activity of the insulin receptor, and studies in transgenic mice suggest a link between altered levels of various gangliosides and the development of insulin resistance. Here, we show that an inhibitor of glycosphingolipid synthesis can improve glucose control and increase insulin sensitivity in two different diabetic animal m...
متن کاملResistance training increases fibroblast growth factor-21 and irisin levels in the skeletal muscle of Zucker diabetic fatty rats
PURPOSE Although the fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21) and irisin roles are well demonstrated in metabolic disease, there have been no reports investigating the effect of resistance exercise on FGF-21 and irisin levels in diabetic skeletal muscles. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the change of FGF-21 and irisin levels in various skeletal muscles, and their association with muscle ...
