Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSex Dimorphism in the Fgf21 Gene Expression in Liver and Adipose Tissues is Dependent on the Metabolic ConditionNadezhda Bazhan, Tatiana Jakovleva, Natalia Balyibina et al.Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) beneficially affects carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Previously, a sex-specific activation of Fgf21 expression was observed in humans and animals with metabolic diseases. It is unknown whether the sex differences in the Fgf21 expression are manifested in response to the natural physiological situations of fasting and refeeding. The aim of this work was to determine liver, White … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2019 · 8,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Static Magnetic Field Exposure in Obese Mice Induced by High Fat Diet: Its Effect on T-Box15 Gene and Uncoupling Protein 1 ExpressionWidia Bela Oktaviani, Puji Sari, Luluk Yunaini et al.Increased Ca2+ cytosolic concentration caused by Static Magnetic Field (SMF) exposure modulates Tbx15 protein and Ucp1 gene interaction that is involved in the thermogenesis browning process of white adipose tissue. Activation of Tbx15 as a transcription factor that regulates the expression of the Uncoupling protein 1 (Ucp1) gene induced by SMF exposure in adipose tissue converts excess accumulated fat into … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 23 Jan 2024 · 4,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF PIOGLITAZONE ON HEPATIC ULTRA-STRUCTURE AND METABOLIC CHANGES INDUCED BY A HIGH SUCROSE DIET IN RATSMohamed D. Morsy, Ahmed S. Khashaba, Ahmed I. Agamy, Refaat A. EidPioglitazone (Pio) is a PPAR-γ agonist insulin sensitizer has anti-inflammatory activity. Our novel aspect was to investigate its hepatic anti-inflammatory activity at the level of ultra-structure and enzymatic changes in a high sucrose diet animal model. Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into four equal groups: Control; control Pio; high sucrose diet; high sucrose diet Pio treated groups. Fourteen … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 23 Apr 2014 · 6,732 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdiponectin Regulation in Type 2 Diabetic Rats: Effects of Insulin, Metformin and DexamethasoneTamer Ahmed Ismail, Mohamed Mohamed Soliman, Shimaa Ahmed IsmailAdiponectin is a protein synthesized from adipose tissue, increases peripheral glucose utilization in liver and skeletal muscle. Adiponectin expression and secretion are decreased during obesity and insulin resistance. In this study, the effect of insulin, metformin and dexamethasone on serum lipid profiles was examined in Type 2 Diabetic (T2D) rats. T2D was induced by feeding rats a high fat diet … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2013 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRamadan Fasting Diet Entailed a Lipid Metabolic Disorder Among Type 2 Diabetic Obese WomenMéghit Boumédiène Khaled, Slimane BelbraouetWe designed this study to assess the effect of diet during Ramadan fasting on body weight and on serum lipid components in type 2 diabetic obese women. During Ramadan of 2005, 89 diabetic women receiving oral treatment (BMI = 33.20±3.01 kg m-2), aged 52 (±5 years), were selected. The study was carried out over 3 periods-, before (T1: pre-fasting), during … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,861 accessesView PDFCite
