Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is caused by the destruction of insulin-producing β cells in pancreatic islets by autoimmune T cells. Islet transplantation has been established as an effective therapeutic strategy for T1D. However, the survival of islet grafts can be disrupted by recurrent

To examine the role of nitric oxide (NO) on thermoregulation and control of breathing in obesity, awake obese and age-matched lean Zucker (Z) rats underwent a sustained hypoxic challenge. Body temperature (Tb), oxygen consumption (V O(2)) and ventilation (V E) were measured during room air and

Studies were undertaken to determine the effects on body weight and food intake of a chemical delivery system which preferentially delivers estradiol (E2) to the brain and there serves as a source for the sustained release of the steroid. We injected intravenously various doses of this

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an effective solvent and cytoprotectant agent that can induce diverse actions in experimental settings, ranging from metabolic stress to cytotoxic effects depending on the concentration used. Therefore, for the quality of experiments and reproducibility of results it is

There are important differences in terms of metabolic activity, energy utilization and capacity of protein and fat deposition when Iberian and modern pigs are compared. Primary culture of hepatocytes was used to evaluate hepatic function and sensitivity to hormones between breeds without the

Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) is widely used as a solvent and cryopreservative in laboratories and considered to have many beneficial health effects in humans. Oxylipins are a class of biologically active metabolites of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) that have been linked to a number of diseases. In

The prevalence of metabolic syndrome persistently increases and affects over 30% of U.S. adults. To study how metabolic syndrome may induce tubulointerstitial injury and whether acetaminophen has renal-protective properties, 4-week-old obese Zucker rats were randomly assigned into three groups,

Introduction: G protein-coupled receptor 120 (GPR120) is a G_αq coupled GPCR specifically activated by long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). Functionally, it has been identified as a member of a family of lipid-binding free fatty acid

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of restricting calories with or without daidzein on weight, serum levels of glucose, and inflammatory markers in obese rats. METHODS This experimental study was carried out in Jundishapur University, Ahvaz, Iran, from September 2010 to January 2011. Obesity was induced

Many obese patients are exposed to hypolipidemic and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) drugs. Statins are one of the most marketed drugs in the world to treat dyslipidemia, while sibutramine, a SNRI drug, is prescribed in some countries to treat obesity and is detected as an

OBJECTIVE Obesity, a sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1) -deficient state, increases morbidity and resource utilization in critically ill patients. SIRT-1 deficiency increases microvascular inflammation and mortality in early sepsis. The objective of the study was to study the effect of resveratrol (RSV), a SIRT-1

UNASSIGNED Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is associated with oxidative stress. We surmised that pharmacologic activation of NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) using the acetylenic tricyclic bis(cyano enone) TBE-31 would suppress NASH because Nrf2 is a transcriptional master regulator of
