Adiponectin reverses β‐Cell damage and impaired insulin secretion induced by obesity

Aging Cell, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
Incubation of β‐cells with sera or plasma from obese rats and humans hampers mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) relative to sera and plasma from lean rats and humans. Adiponectin, found at elevated levels in lean subjects, supports β‐cell function on its own, in the absence of sera, and also reverses

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 217-222, March/April 2023., 2023
Abstract Objectives To report red cell distribution width (RDW) values, to calculate RDW‐to‐platelet ratio (RPR), and to investigate a possible correlation of RDW and RPR index values in neonatal foals classified as healthy or at risk based on clinical information from a population of foals up to 24 hours of life.

Spirulina platensis Consumption Prevents Obesity and Improves the Deleterious Effects on Intestinal Reactivity in Rats Fed a Hypercaloric Diet

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The consumption of hypercaloric diets is related to the development of obesity, favoring the etiology of gastrointestinal disorders. In this context, Spirulina platensis (SP), some blue‐green algae with antioxidant action, appears as a potential therapeutic alternative to prevent obesity and associated intestinal disorders.
