Maximal Oxidative Capacity during Exercise Is Associated with Skeletal Muscle Fuel Selection and Dynamic Changes in Mitochondrial Protein Acetylation [PDF]
SummaryMaximal exercise-associated oxidative capacity is strongly correlated with health and longevity in humans. Rats selectively bred for high running capacity (HCR) have improved metabolic health and are longer-lived than their low-capacity ...

Food insecurity promotes adiposity in mice
Abstract Objective The obesity epidemic, driven by a complex interplay of environmental and biological factors, remains a significant global health challenge. Herein, we investigate the impact of food insecurity, characterized by unpredictable food access, on the regulation of body weight and body composition in mice.

A 4-wk high-fructose diet alters lipid metabolism without affecting insulin sensitivity or ectopic lipids in healthy humans [PDF]
BACKGROUND: High fructose consumption is suspected to be causally linked to the epidemics of obesity and metabolic disorders. In rodents, fructose leads to insulin resistance and ectopic lipid deposition.

The influence of placental metabolism on fatty acid transfer to the fetus
The factors determining fatty acid transfer across the placenta are not fully understood. This study used a combined experimental and computational modeling approach to explore placental transfer of nonesterified fatty acids and identify the rate ...

Peripheral, but not central, CB1 antagonism provides food intake-independent metabolic benefits in diet-induced obese rats. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE Blockade of the CB1 receptor is one of the promising strategies for the treatment of obesity. Although antagonists suppress food intake and reduce body weight, the role of central versus peripheral CB1 activation on weight loss and related ...

Antiresistin RNA oligonucleotide ameliorates diet-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in mice through attenuating proinflammatory cytokines [PDF]
© 2015 Yi Tan et al. The aim of this study was to determine whether inhibition of resistin by a synthetic antiresistin RNA (oligonucleotide) oligo ameliorates metabolic and histological abnormalities in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) induced by

Role of adipokines and nonesterified fatty acids in the development of insulin resistance
The purpose of the study was to reveal a possible role of adipokines, biologically active adipose tissue proteins (leptin and adiponectin) and nonesterified fatty acids in generating insulin resistance (IR). One hundred and fifty-seven patients (90 females and 67 males) aged 57.5±9.2 years were enrolled in the study. According to the HOMA index for IR,

Effect of Insulin on Human Plasma Tryptophan and Nonesterified Fatty Acids
SummaryOne hour after insulin administration to healthy, fasting humans, plasma nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) levels decreased by approximately 40% of the prein-jection value. Contrary to predictions, plasma free tryptophan did not change and plasma bound tryptophan decreased by 12% during the 1 hr after insulin administration.

A study on the causes for the elevated n−3 fatty acids in cows' milk of alpine origin [PDF]
The influence of grass-only diets either from rye-grass-dominated lowland pastures (400 m above sea level) or botanically diverse alpine pastures (2000 m) on the FA profile of milk was investigated using three groups of six Brown Swiss cows each.

Functionality of fatty acid chemoreception : a potential factor in the development of obesity? [PDF]
Excess dietary fat consumption is recognized as a strong contributing factor in the development of overweight and obesity. Understanding why some individuals are better than others at regulating fat intake will become increasingly important and emerging ...
