The Effect of Exercise on Paraoxonase-1 Activity and Lipid Profile in Obesity and Insulin Resistance Conditions
In the absence of insulin, regular physical activity facilitates the glucose entry into the cell via affecting several signaling pathways. Moreover, regular exercise improves the lipid profile and increases the paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) activity. PON-1 interacts with High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and, in the presence of calcium, hydrolyzes free radicals, prevents low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxid...

متن کاملThiazolidinediones: Potential Link Between Insulin Resistance and Cardiovascular Disease
The thiazolidinediones are a unique class of oral antidiabetic agents that has been shown to directly reduce insulin resistance at sites of insulin action, specifically adipose tissue, skeletal muscle, and the liver. By reducing insulin resistance, these drugs influence many of the modifiable cardiovascular risk factors associated with the insulin resistance syndrome, also known as the cardiova...
