Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is a critical pathological phenomenon observed in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Various molecular events including the Calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T-cell (NFAT) mediated signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. While different new therapeutic
Alcalase potato protein hydrolysate (APPH), a nutraceutical food, might an have important role in anti-obesity activity. Recent studies from our lab indicated that APPH treatment had lipolysis stimulating activity and identified was an efficient anti-obesity diet ingredient. In this study we aim to
Consumption of high fat diet (HFD) is associated with increased cardiovascular risk factors among elderly people. Aging and obesity induced-cardiac remodeling includes hypertrophy and fibrosis. Gelsolin (GSN) induces cardiac hypertrophy and TGF-β, a key cytokine, which induces fibrosis. The
The pathological effects of obesity are often severe in aging condition. Although exercise training is found to be advantageous, the intensity of exercise performed is limited in aging condition. Therefore in this study we assessed the effect of a combined treatment regimen with a short-peptide IF
