Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLeptin and Adiponectin in the HIV Associated Metabolic Syndrome: Physiologic and Therapeutic ImplicationsSotirios Tsiodras, Christos MantzorosLeptin and adiponectin represent two newly discovered adipose tissue derived hormones with important roles in energy homeostasis and insulin resistance. Their interrelations with the manifestations of the HIV associated metabolic syndrome and specific somatomorphic changes i.e. fat redistribution is reviewed. A synopsis of published studies is presented and the potential role of leptin and adiponectin is discussed. We have described … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 10,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Administration of Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH) on Some Hematological Values of Alloxan-induced Diabetic RatsKamal M.S. MansiThis study was designed to evaluate the role of alpha- melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) on heart rate and some hematological values in alloxan induced diabetic rats. 40 male white rats were divided into four experimental groups: control, diabetic, α-MSH-treated and α-MSH-treated diabetic. At the end of the experimental period (3weeks), animals in all four groups were fasted for 12 hrs … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGalactomannan Restore Letrozole Induced Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) in Rat ModelManoj K. Aswar, Utkarsha V. Deshpande, Urmila AswarCurrent research aims towards evaluation of the effect of Galactomannan (GM) on letrozole-induced PCOS in adult female Wistar rats. Seven randomized groups of six female rats were made. The rats in all groups were administered with letrozole (1 mg/kg p.o.) for 21 days to induce PCOS. Rats in respective groups were treated with vehicle (10 ml/kg, p.o.), clomiphene citrate (1 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2021 · 7,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrevalence of miRNAs in Introns and Cis-Regulatory Regions of Genes of the Somatotropic Axis in MammalsTatiana Shkurat, Dmitry Romanov, Evgeny Pshenichnyy et al.To understand the role of microRNA in genetic control of animal growth mechanisms, we performed bioinformatic analysis of the localization of microRNAs in introns and cis-regulatory regions of the somatotropic axis genes-GH1, GHRH, SST and IGF1 in Homo sapiens, Macaca mulatta, Pan troglodytes, Pongo abelii, Gorilla gorilla, Ovis aries, Bos Taurus, Loxodonta Africana, Oryctolagus cuniculus, Canis lupus, Rattus norvegicus and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNanoceramic Matrices: Biomedical ApplicationsWilli Paul, Chandra P. SharmaNatural bone consisted of calcium phosphate with nanometer-sized needle-like crystals of approximately 5-20 nm width by 60 nm length. Synthetic calcium phosphates and Bioglass are biocompatible and bioactive as they bond to bone and enhance bone tissue formation. This property is attributed to their similarity with the mineral phase of natural bone except its constituent particle size. Calcium phosphate ceramics … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,361 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Correlation Between α-Klotho and Diabetic Biomarkers in Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional StudyYaser A.M Sulaiman, Moayad M. Al Anzy, Omeed Akbar Ali, Adnan M. IsmailEvidence suggests a link between diabetes and Klotho protein, demonstrated by reduced Klotho gene expression in individuals with diabetes, α- klotho the potential modulator of kidney health in DM. Klotho is primarily expressed in the kidneys and has an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant role, which may protect against the pathological processes that damage renal function in diabetes. Research conducted in Japan … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2026 · 837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sled Dog Model for Positive Health Effects of Weight Management and ExerciseLaura Falkenstein, Scott Jerome et al.Obesity is a significant risk factor for metabolic syndrome and type II diabetes. Physical activity and/or dietary modification can reduce the incidence of obesity. Marginal fitness levels limit the efficacy of exercise training, and most humans choose from a wide range of dietary strategies to lose weight. Despite these limitations, exercise in the absence of weight loss may offer protective … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2023 · 6,151 accessesView PDFCite
