Mechanism of visceral fat reduction in Tsumura Suzuki obese, diabetes (TSOD) mice orally administered β-cryptoxanthin from Satsuma mandarin oranges (Citrus unshiu Marc).

Only registered users can translate articles

The carotenoid β-cryptoxanthin (β-CRX) is abundant in Satsuma mandarins (Citrus unshiu Marc). Several studies have shown a relationship between Satsuma mandarin consumption and a low risk of several diseases, for example, diabetes, gout, and hypertension, suggesting β-CRX involvement in disease

Supplementation of highly concentrated β-cryptoxanthin in a satsuma mandarin beverage improves adipocytokine profiles in obese Japanese women.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Serum β-cryptoxanthin levels are lower in overweight subjects than in normal subjects. Abnormalities of adipocytokine profiles in obesity subjects have been reported. There are several reports that serum β-cryptoxanthin levels in them were relatively lower than normal

Validation of overweight children's fruit and vegetable intake using plasma carotenoids.

Only registered users can translate articles

Assessing dietary intake in children is difficult and limited validated tools exist. Plasma carotenoids are nutritional biomarkers of fruit and vegetable intake and therefore suitable to validate reported dietary intakes. The aim of this study was to examine the comparative validity of a food

Depletion of serum carotenoid and other fat-soluble vitamin concentrations following obesity surgery.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Obesity constitutes a growing health problem, and surgical treatment of severe obesity is increasingly used. Nutrient deficiencies are common following bariatric surgery and the evidence indicates a progressive increase in the incidence and severity of the deficiency of certain vitamins

Plasma concentrations of carotenoids and vitamin C are better correlated with dietary intake in normal weight than overweight and obese elderly subjects.

Only registered users can translate articles

Carotenoid and vitamin C intakes, assessed by FFQ, have been positively associated with plasma concentrations in different populations. However, the influence of BMI on these associations has not been explored in detail. We explored in a cross-sectional study the relation between dietary carotenoid

Effect of a high-protein diet with β-cryptoxanthin supplementation on metabolic risk factors, oxidative and inflammatory biomarkers in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD): study protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Excessive hepatic fat is associated with increased metabolic risk factors, production of inflammatory factors, and oxidative stress. High protein intake might trigger an increased hepatic lipid oxidation through an increase in hepatic energy expenditure. Furthermore, the majority of

Time-course changes in bone turnover markers and fat-soluble vitamins after obesity surgery.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The available evidence indicates a progressive increase in the incidence and severity of the deficiency of certain vitamins and related clinical conditions (i.e., metabolic bone disease). Because of the potential role of fat-soluble vitamins and carotenoids in bone metabolism, our aim was

Investigating nutrition and lifestyle factors as determinants of abdominal obesity: an environment-wide study.

Only registered users can translate articles

The increasing global trends in obesity and its associated burden of disease indicate a need to identify modifiable determinants of obesity. A total of 182 nutrition and lifestyles factors were investigated in relation to abdominal obesity among 7,403 male and 8,328 female participants of the Third

Relationship between obesity and serum markers of oxidative stress and inflammation in Japanese.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study was conducted to assess the relationship between obesity and serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), carotenoids, oxidized LDL (oxLDL), oxidized LDL antibodies (oLAB), and leptin in Japanese residents. The subjects were 158 males and 158 females aged 40-79 years, and living in

Prevention and reversal of lipotoxicity-induced hepatic insulin resistance and steatohepatitis in mice by an antioxidant carotenoid, β-cryptoxanthin.

Only registered users can translate articles

Excessive hepatic lipid accumulation promotes macrophages/Kupffer cells activation, resulting in exacerbation of insulin resistance and progression of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). However, few promising treatment modalities target lipotoxicity-mediated hepatic activation/polarization of

Serum concentrations of retinol, alpha-tocopherol and the carotenoids are influenced by diet, race and obesity in a sample of healthy adolescents.

Only registered users can translate articles

An important part of understanding the functions of vitamin A, vitamin E and the carotenoids in nutritional status assessment, health promotion and disease prevention is knowledge of factors that influence their distribution in human tissues. Our objective was to examine serum concentrations of

β-cryptoxanthin suppresses the adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells via RAR activation.

Only registered users can translate articles

We recently reported that the oral intake of β-cryptoxanthin exerted anti-obesity effects by lowering visceral fat levels. In the present study, we characterized the molecular mechanisms underlying the lipid-lowering effects of β-cryptoxanthin on 3T3-L1 cells. Consistent with our previous findings,

Prevention of Adiposity by the Oral Administration of β-Cryptoxanthin.

Only registered users can translate articles

β-Cryptoxanthin (β-CRX) is a carotenoid found in human blood. It is specifically rich in Satsuma mandarin (Citrus unshiu Marc.) but very little in other fruits or vegetables. Several reports indicate the health promoting benefits of β-CRX. As we had reported visceral fat reduction on mildly obese

Dietary and Biochemical Characteristics Associated with Normal-Weight Obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND

Inflammation and oxidative stress have been reported to be higher in subjects with normal weight obesity (NWO) syndrome [normal body mass index (BMI) (<25 kg/m²) but excessive body fat (for women ≥ 30% and for men ≥ 20%) according to World Health

Carotenoids in Adipose Tissue Biology and Obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cell, animal and human studies dealing with carotenoids and carotenoid derivatives as nutritional regulators of adipose tissue biology with implications for the etiology and management of obesity and obesity-related metabolic diseases are reviewed. Most studied carotenoids in this context are
