alpha tocopherol/비만증

Plasma alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene concentrations were significantly lower in obese boys than in control subjects (medians: 3.41 versus 7.46 mg/L and 0.038 versus 0.078 mg/L, respectively, p < 0.05). The differences remained significant after correction for lipidemia. These reduced plasma

UNASSIGNED Excess weight is a strong risk factor for the development of dysglycaemia. It has been suggested that changes in the metabolism microRNAs, small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression, could precede late glycaemic changes. Vitamin E in turn may exert important functions in

To investigate whether epileptic patients who become obese after valproic acid (VPA) therapy can have a high risk of atherosclerosis related to the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein, we prospectively studied the plasma concentrations of lipid-soluble antioxidant vitamins in a group of 20

Obesity has increased in children and adolescents. What is reflected in the early occurrence of cardiometabolic alterations, like hypertension and type 2 diabetes, where the oxLDL formation is stimulated. Various studies have shown that plasma α-tocopherol (α-TP) can protect LDL against oxidation.

We investigated the concentrations of beta-carotene, alpha-tocopherol, and retinol in obese children, together with assessment of the influence of relative body weight and plasma lipids. A lower plasma beta-carotene level was observed in the obese children, and plasma beta-carotene was inversely

Healthy persons, patients with noncomplicated alimentary and hypothalamic obesity and those with pubertal dyspituitarism or Icenko-Cushing's disease were studied for serum and erythrocytic levels of alpha-tocopherol. In normal subjects the levels of alpha-tocopherol in the blood serum are increasing

Healthy overweight subjects (24 males, 68 females; mean age=48.8 years; body mass index=27.1+/-4.9) participated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study with two periods of 28-day supplementation using a nutritional product composed primarily of dehydrated juice

BACKGROUND The incidence of obesity is increasing worldwide. The neuropathy associated with obesity, that is evident from disturbed nerve conduction, is one of the complications for which a number of treatment options are being considered. In this study, Simvastatin, a hydroxyl methyl glutaryl

OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to describe qualitative and/or quantitative modifications of lipoproteins, including their fatty acid composition, in obese patients during a hypocaloric diet, and determine whether the variations observed paralleled modifications of alpha-tocopherol concentration

Plasma concentrations of alpha-tocopherol and retinol were measured in 17 obese children (10 boys and 7 girls, age: 13.9 +/- 0.3 y, mean +/- s.e.m.) and related to anthropometric indices and fasting plasma insulin concentrations. Body weight was 89.0 +/- 5.3 kg, relative body weight 165 +/- 6%, body

Vegetable consumption has been encouraged as a component of nutritional education for obese and insulin-resistant patients. However, the benefits of vegetable intake in a therapeutic diet on postprandial glycemic and lipidemic responses have not been clarified. We studied the effects of the intake

The influence of dietary lutein, with and without moderate amounts of vitamin C (VC) or vitamin E (VE), on biomarkers of oxidative stress was examined in rats. Nine groups of immature Zucker obese (fa/fa) and lean female rats (8/group) consumed ad libitum for 8 wk the AIN-93G diet (Control) to which

Despite extensive research, the effects of alpha-tocopherol supplementation remain controversial. Few studies have been focused on obese and overweight people. We examined the effects of alpha-tocopherol (AT) on the oxidative status and metabolic profile in overweight women. Sixteen overweight women

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

Experiments were designed to determine how varying levels of plasma lipids affect tissue deposition of alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). Hypolipemia was induced by feeding orotic acid, and hyperlipemia was obtained using genetically obese rats. With equal dietary intakes of alpha-tocopherol, hypolipemic
