OBJECTIVE Chromium treatment has been reported to improve glycemic control and insulin sensitivity in specific populations of patients with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of chromium treatment on glycemic control in a Western population of insulin-dependent

Chromium supplementation enhances insulin signalling in skeletal muscle of obese KK/HlJ diabetic mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Chromium is an essential nutrient required for glucose and lipid metabolism. Laboratory and clinical evidences indicate that chromium supplementation may improve insulin sensitivity by enhancing intracellular signalling. Considerable evidence suggests that serine phosphorylation of insulin

Serum Chromium Level is Increased in Jordanian Smokers, Decreased in Jordanians with Prediabetes and type 2 Diabetes, But not Altered in Jordanians with Hypertension, With Obesity, or With Family History of Diabetes.

Chromium was found to be crucial for several biochemical processes in the human body, including, in particular, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism whereas the exact mechanisms of its actions have yet to be explored. Here, we asked whether low serum chromium levels are present in

Nutrigenomic basis of beneficial effects of chromium(III) on obesity and diabetes.

Insulin resistance has been shown to be the major contributing factor to the metabolic syndrome, which comprises a cluster of risk factors for metabolic aberrations such as obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Additionally, insulin resistance has been associated with the

Urinary chromium is associated with changes in leukocyte miRNA expression in obese subjects.

Epidemiological studies suggest a link between chromium (Cr) status and cardiovascular disease. Increased urinary excretion of Cr was reported in subjects with diabetes compared with non-diabetic controls and those with non-diabetic insulin resistance. Epigenetic alterations have been linked to the

Potential Ameliorative Effects of Chromium Supplementation on Glucose Metabolism, Obesity, and Genomic Stability in Prediabetic Rat Model

Only registered users can translate articles

Chromium (III) (Cr(III)) effect on improving glucose, body mass loss, and genomic stability has been extensively studied in models of type 2 diabetes. However, there is a lack of studies evaluating its effect on prediabetes. Thus, this study evaluates the effects of Cr(III) as dietetic

Effect of chromium supplementation and exercise on body composition, resting metabolic rate and selected biochemical parameters in moderately obese women following an exercise program.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of chromium picolinate (CP) supplementation on body composition, resting metabolic rate (RMR), selected biochemical parameters and iron and zinc status in moderately obese women participating in a 12-week exercise program. METHODS Forty-four women, 27 to 51 years

Chromium, zinc and magnesium concentrations in the pubic hair of obese and overweight women.

The study addressed chromium, zinc and magnesium concentrations in the pubic hair of obese and overweight women. It was carried out on hair collected from 85 women at the age of 16-80 living in the Podkarpackie Voivodeship (southern Poland). The experimental and control groups consisted of 39 and 46

Chlorogenic acid/chromium supplement rescues diet-induced insulin resistance and obesity in mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Abdominal obesity is a major risk factor for insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Dietary fat induces insulin resistance in humans and rodents. The current study investigates whether a Chlorogenic acid/Chromium III supplement rescues obesity and insulin resistance caused

Effects of a supplement containing chromium and magnesium on morphometric measurements, resting glucose, insulin concentrations and insulin sensitivity in laminitic obese horses.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity and insulin resistance are risk factors for laminitis in equids and supplements containing chromium and magnesium might improve insulin sensitivity. OBJECTIVE A supplement containing chromium, magnesium and other nutraceuticals would alter morphometric measurements, blood

Chromium picolinate does not improve key features of metabolic syndrome in obese nondiabetic adults.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The use of chromium-containing dietary supplements is widespread among patients with type 2 diabetes. Chromium's effects in patients at high risk for developing diabetes, especially those with metabolic syndrome, is unknown. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of

Effects of niacin-bound chromium supplementation on body composition in overweight African-American women.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE This pilot study was designed to determine whether 600 microg niacin-bound chromium ingested daily over 2 months by African-American women undergoing a modest dietary and exercise regimen influences weight loss and body composition. METHODS Twenty overweight African-American women, engaged

[Effects of chromium and fish oil on insulin resistance and leptin resistance in obese developing rats].

Only registered users can translate articles

In order to study the effects of chromium and fish oil on insulin resistance and leptin resistance in obese rats, 50 rats were divided randomly into five groups: basal diet group was fed on normal diet, other four groups were fed on high fat diet. In addition to high fat diet, chromium group fed

Chromium supplementation in non-obese non-diabetic subjects is associated with a decline in insulin sensitivity.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The use of chromium supplements is widespread for the prevention and treatment of diabetes mellitus but there are conflicting reports on efficacy, possibly reflecting discrepant effects across different populations. In the present studies, we test the hypothesis that chromium

[Effects of chromium and fish oil on blood lipid and blood glucose in obese rats].

Only registered users can translate articles

Obesity does great harm to people's health. In order to study the effects of chromium and fish oil on blood lipid and blood glucose in obese rats, 32 obese model rats were divided randomly into four groups: fish oil group(5 ml/kg BW), chromium group(3 mg/kg BW), fish oil + chromium group and high
