The effects of weight reduction to ideal body weight on body fat distribution
Metabolism, 1995 Obesity is a well-known health risk factor. Several studies have demonstrated that upper-body fat distribution plays a major role in the association between increased adiposity and metabolic disorders. The present study was undertaken to evaluate changes in intraabdominal and subcutaneous fat areas in obese subjects undergoing a weight reduction to ...

KMT2A degradation is observed in decitabine‐responsive acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We demonstrate that decitabine (DEC) not only degrades the DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 but also the leukemic driver lysine methyltransferase KMT2A likely due to structural similarity of the DNA‐binding CXXC domains. DEC influences KMT2A downstream processes and synergizes with menin inhibitor revumenib (REV) to decrease leukemic cell proliferation, and

PROTEIN CATABOLIC RATE SHOULD BE NORMALIZED BY IDEAL BODY WEIGHT NOT BY POST-DIALYSIS BODY WEIGHT.
Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012 Protein catabolic rate (PCR) is calculated by urea kinetic model thorough the dialysis session and it is recognized as expressing the protein intake in the steady state of dialysis patients.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Elevated level of cholesterol is positively correlated to prostate cancer development and disease severity. Cholesterol‐lowering drugs, such as statins, are demonstrated to inhibit prostate cancer. VNPP433‐3β interrupts multiple signaling and metabolic pathways, including cholesterol biosynthesis, AR‐mediated transcription of several oncogenes, mRNA 5′

Sexual dimorphism for juvenile body weight in chickens divergently selected for 8-week body weight
Frontiers in PhysiologyThere is a dearth of literature on the genetics of sexual dimorphism for juvenile body weight in meat-type chickens given its biological and economic relevance. Herein, we report the sexual dimorphism for 4- and 8-week body weights in White Plymouth Rock
