Two new Loci for body-weight regulation identified in a joint analysis of genome-wide association studies for early-onset extreme obesity in French and german study groups.

Only registered users can translate articles

Meta-analyses of population-based genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in adults have recently led to the detection of new genetic loci for obesity. Here we aimed to discover additional obesity loci in extremely obese children and adolescents. We also investigated if these results generalize by

Antioxidant effects of potassium ascorbate with ribose therapy in a case with Prader Willi Syndrome.

Oxidative stress (OS) is involved in several human diseases, including obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis, carcinogenesis, as well as genetic diseases. We previously found that OS occurs in Down Syndrome as well as in Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS). Here we describe the clinical case of a female

PARP1 deficiency exacerbates diet-induced obesity in mice.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1) regulates gene expression as a transcriptional cofactor and protein functions via poly (ADP-ribosyl)ation. This study was aimed to determine the effect of Parp1 gene deficiency on diet-induced obesity and energy metabolism. Parp1-knockout (Parp-KO) and

Quantification of the alpha and beta subunits of the transducing elements (Gs and Gi) of adenylate cyclase in adipocyte membranes from lean and obese (ob/ob) mice.

The abundance of the alpha and beta subunits of the GTP-binding proteins (G-proteins) that transduce hormonal messages to adenylate cyclase was assessed in adipocyte membranes from lean (+/+) and obese (ob/ob) mice, using ADP-ribosylation with bacterial toxin and immunodetection. Both methods

A dinucleotide repeat polymorphism at the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase gene is not associated with predisposition to type 1 diabetes in French Caucasians.

The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme that detects and binds DNA strand breaks. Excessive PARP activation leads to the death of mice islet beta-cells by depleting cellular energy reserves. On the other hand, PARP-mutant mice are resistant to streptozotocine-induced diabetes,

The non-enzymatic glycation of LDL proteins results in biochemical alterations - A correlation study of Apo B100-AGE with obesity and rheumatoid arthritis.

Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) can aggregate amid incessant inflammation, as may be available in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. d-Ribose reacts more promptly than glucose monosaccharide to the proteins and forms heterogeneous group of products known as AGEs. Obesity includes persons

Diet-induced obesity exacerbates auditory degeneration via hypoxia, inflammation, and apoptosis signaling pathways in CD/1 mice.

The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of diet-induced obesity on hearing degeneration in CD/1 mice. Sixty 4-week-old male CD/1 mice were randomly and equally divided into 2 groups. For 16 weeks, the diet-induced obesity (DIO) group was fed a high fat diet and the control group was

AKT is critically involved in cooperation between obesity and the dietary carcinogen amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo [4,5-b] (PhIP) toward colon carcinogenesis in rats.

Obesity is highly associated with colon cancer development. Whereas it is generally attributed to pro-tumorigenic effects of high fat diet (HFD), we here show that a common genetic basis for predisposition to obesity and colon cancer might also underlie the close association. Comparison across

Enhanced susceptibility of ovaries from obese mice to 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-induced DNA damage.

7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) depletes ovarian follicles and induces DNA damage in extra-ovarian tissues, thus, we investigated ovarian DMBA-induced DNA damage. Additionally, since obesity is associated with increased offspring birth defect incidence, we hypothesized that a DMBA-induced DNA

The comparative metabonomics of age-related changes in the urinary composition of male Wistar-derived and Zucker (fa/fa) obese rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The global metabolite profiles of endogenous compounds excreted in urine by male Wistar-derived and Zucker (fa/fa) obese rats were investigated from 4 to 20 weeks of age using both 1H NMR spectroscopy and HPLC-TOF/MS with electrospray ionisation (ESI). Multivariate data analysis was then performed

Expression of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) in endometrial adenocarcinoma: Prognostic potential.

Only registered users can translate articles

In the United States endometrial carcinoma is the most common female gynecologic malignancy. An average of more than 60,000 new cases of endometrial carcinomas have been diagnosed yearly over the past 5 years, with a higher incidence occurring in the central Appalachian states of Ohio

Ribose Accelerates Gut Motility and Suppresses Mouse Body Weight Gaining.

Only registered users can translate articles

The increasing prevalence of obesity is closely related to excessive energy consumption. Clinical intervention of energy intake is an attractive strategy to fight obesity. However, the current FDA-approved weight-loss drugs all have significant side effects. Here we show that ribose upregulates gut

Pharmacological Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases improves fitness and mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle.

Only registered users can translate articles

We previously demonstrated that the deletion of the poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (Parp)-1 gene in mice enhances oxidative metabolism, thereby protecting against diet-induced obesity. However, the therapeutic use of PARP inhibitors to enhance mitochondrial function remains to be explored. Here, we show

The Role of Sirt6 in Obesity and Diabetes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Sirt6 is one of the sirtuin family members, a kind of NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase and ADP-ribose transferase enzyme. It has an important role in physiological and pathological processes, regulating aging, cancer, obesity, insulin resistance, inflammation, and energy metabolism. Recent studies

Overweight worsens apoptosis, neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier damage after hypoxic ischemia in neonatal brain through JNK hyperactivation.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Apoptosis, neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage affect the susceptibility of the developing brain to hypoxic-ischemic (HI) insults. c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is an important mediator of insulin resistance in obesity. We hypothesized that neonatal overweight
