Ghrelin activation and neuropeptide Y elevation in response to medium chain triglyceride administration in anorexia nervosa patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Ghrelin, a peptide found in the stomach, increases appetite and fat-free mass while suppressing energy expenditure. Ghrelin requires modification by medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) to exert its physiological effects. In this study, we investigated ghrelin activation and the resulting

Role of whole-body lipids and nitrogen as limiting factors for survival in tumor-bearing mice with anorexia and cachexia.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study was designed to ascertain whether the overall availability of whole-body lipids and nitrogen is a limiting factor for survival in tumor-bearing mice suffering from anorexia and cachexia. Three-month-old nongrowing mice (C57BL/6J) were given s.c. transplants of a methylcholanthrene-induced

[The importance of choline and different serum parameters for the course of the anorexia nervosa].

Only registered users can translate articles

Malnutrition in anorexia nervosa was simulated in an animal starvation study. Female rats aged 11 to 13 weeks received a hypocaloric standard diet or a hypocaloric choline reduced diet. Weight reduction lasted for 12 to 20 weeks and was between 30 % to 40 % of initial weight. Several animals were

Lipid profile and cardiovascular risk in anorexia nervosa; the effect of nutritional treatment.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to explore the lipid profile in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN), and the changes with refeeding. METHODS The sample comprised 102 AN outpatients (mean age 22.32 ± 3.17). Blood tests, after 12-hour overnight fast, were performed before refeeding (M(0)) and

A case of anorexia nervosa with severe hyperlipoproteinemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The complication of severe hyperlipoproteinemia with anorexia nervosa is very rare. We investigated the mechanisms of severe hyperlipoproteinemia in a patient with anorexia nervosa. METHODS The measurement of plasma levels of lipids, apolipoproteins (Apo), lipoprotein subfractions, free

Evaluation of selected clinical and diagnostic parameters in girls with anorexia nervosa (I).

OBJECTIVE Body weight loss in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) is accompanied by a number of hormonal and metabolic disorders. The scope and intensity of these disorders may have a considerable influence on the prognosis in this disease. The goal of the study was an evaluation of selected

Methamphetamine causes anorexia in Drosophila melanogaster, exhausting metabolic reserves and contributing to mortality.

Only registered users can translate articles

Methamphetamine (MA) appears to produce neurotoxic effects, in part, through disruptions of energy metabolism. A recent study of the whole-body proteome of Drosophila melanogaster showed many changes in energy metabolism-related proteins, leading us to hypothesize that MA toxicity may cause

[Thyroid function and lipid metabolism in patients with anorexia nervosa].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE There are clinical similarities between anorexia nervosa (AN) and hypothyroidism. Previous reports have shown decrease FT3, increase rT3, sporadically decrease FT4 and normal levels of serum TSH. METHODS To assess thyroid function in 36 patients with AN (4 males, 32 females the subjects

Role of cholecystokinin in the anorexia produced by duodenal delivery of oleic acid in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

To assess the importance of triglyceride digestion products in producing satiety, we determined the effects of duodenal infusions of triolein, oleic acid, and oleic acid plus monoolein on meal patterns in ad libitum-feeding rats. Oleic acid and oleic acid plus monoolein inhibited feeding similarly;

Factors related to sex hormone binding globulin concentrations in women with anorexia nervosa.

Only registered users can translate articles

The published reports concerning serum levels of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) in women with anorexia nervosa are few in number and controversial. Indeed, very little is known of the factors influencing SHBG concentrations in these patients. In an attempt to clarify this problem we evaluated

Abetalipoproteinemia-like lipid profile and acanthocytosis in a young woman with anorexia nervosa.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report the case of a 17-year-old woman with anorexia nervosa (AN) who developed an abetalipoproteinemia-like lipid profile and acanthocytosis. These abnormalities resolved slowly as her nutritional status improved. We considered 3 possible causes of an abetalipoproteinemia-like lipid profile in

Serum interleukin 15 in anorexia nervosa: Comparison to normal weight and obese girls.

Only registered users can translate articles

Interleukin 15 (IL-15) plays a key role in the muscle-fat interaction, reducing adipose tissue mass without changes in the lean body mass and reduction of food intake. Here we assess serum IL-15 levels in girls with anorexia nervosa (AN) relative to obese and normal weight female

[Lipid metabolism in anorexia nervosa].

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Anorexia nervosa is a model of simple starvation accompanied by secondary hyperlipoproteinemia. Plasma fatty acid pattern influences levels of plasma lipids and lipoproteins. Level of plasma lathosterol represents a marker of cholesterol synthesis de novo; levels of plant sterols reflect

Effect of weight restoration on the dyslipoproteinemia of anorexia nervosa.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dyslipoproteinemia, a risk factor for atherosclerosis, has been described in anorexia nervosa (AN). To assess whether dyslipoproteinemia is present in our AN population, and to investigate the effect of controlled refeeding, we prospectively examined lipid profiles in 16 hospitalized adolescents

Intestinal absorption and pancreatic function are preserved in anorexia nervosa patients in both a severely malnourished state and after recovery.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Anorexia nervosa (AN) is characterised by a refusal to normal body weight accompanied by a marked restriction of food intake, frequently leading to severe malnutrition. In severe malnutrition and wasting syndromes, mucosal atrophy, altered gastrointestinal motility and pancreatic atrophy,
