The objective of this investigation was to protect rats against exocrine pancreatic atrophy by adding 22% fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS), a natural fructan obtained from inulin, to the 50% copper-deficient diets containing qualitatively and quantitatively different carbohydrates. Young male Wistar
OBJECTIVE
Aminoguanidine (AG), an inhibitor of advanced glycation endproducts, has been identified as a prominent agent that prevents the fructose-induced arterial stiffening in male Wistar rats. Our aims were to examine whether AG produced benefits on the left ventricular (LV)-arterial coupling in
BACKGROUND
This study tested whether subacute inflammatory change of fatty liver induced by portal endotoxaemia is detrimental to pancreatic insulin secretion in fructose-fed rats (FFRs) with fatty liver.
METHODS
Rats were randomly assigned into two groups with a regular or fructose-enriched diet
The increased consumption of high-fructose in diet may contribute to high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the world. The influence of high-fructose diet on male reproductive system has been poorly documented. In this study, we investigated the effects of dietary high-fructose on the expression
We measured the alcohol sugars in sural nerves from 11 controls, 21 conventionally treated patients with diabetes and neuropathy, and 4 diabetics without neuropathy. The results were related to metabolic control and to clinical, neuropathological, and morphometric abnormalities in the nerves. The
Prediabetes is a condition affecting more than 35% of the population. In some forms, excessive carbohydrate intake (primarily refined sugar) plays a prominent role. Prediabetes is a symptomless, mostly unrecognized disease which increases cardiovascular risk. In our work, we examined the effect of a
This study was aimed to assess the plausible anti-obesity effects of Bacillus subtilis SPB1 crude lipopeptide biosurfactant on high fat high fructose diet-fed rats (HFFD). Male Wistar rats were divided into five groups with the following treatment schedule: normal diet (CD), HFFD, HFFD supplemented
This study investigated the therapeutic potential of undigested goby fish (Zosterisessor ophiocephalus) muscle proteins (UGP) and their hydrolysates on high-fat-high-fructose diet (HFFD)-fed rats. HFFD induced hyperglycemia, manifested by a significant increase in the levels of glucose and glycogen
The incidence of metabolic syndrome is rapidly increasing worldwide, and adequate animal models are crucial for studies on its pathogenesis and therapy. In the search of an adequate experimental model to simulate human metabolic syndrome, the present study was performed to examine the
OBJECTIVE
Febrile seizure (FS) is a pediatric emergency. The reiterative attacks of FS may result in brain damage to various extents. Fructose-1,6-diphosphate, serving as a cellular energy substance, has been applied to clinical practice for many years and has shown its importance in adjuvant
After 2 days, lenses with intact capsules from adults rats remained clear when incubated in medium 199 with a normal glucose concentration but showed opacities when the level of glucose was increased up to 10 times normal. Scanning electron microscopy of the fixed lenses demonstrate globular
An open reading frame (ORF) of snake muscle fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (Fru-1,6-P2ase) was obtained by the RT-PCR method with degenerate primers, followed by RACE-PCR. The cDNA of Fru-1,6-P2ase, encoding 340 amino acids, is highly homologous to that of mammalian species, especially human muscle,
The consumption of a high-fructose diet that is inadequate in copper produces numerous pathologies which eventually lead to the mortality of the animals. In contrast, the consumption of a high-starch diet that is inadequate in copper does not produce abnormalities and the animals survive. Ethanol
Two studies were conducted to determine whether hepatic iron overload in rats fed fructose plays a role in the exacerbation of the signs associated with copper deficiency. When fed the adequate iron diet (50 micrograms Fe/g), copper-deficient rats fed either fructose or starch exhibited hepatic iron
The reversal effect of troxerutin (TX) on obesity, insulin resistance, lipid accumulation, oxidative damage, and hypertension induced in the high-fat-high-fructose diet (HFFD)-fed mice model of metabolic syndrome was investigated. Adult male Mus musculus mice of body weight 25-30 g were fed either
