Identification of Metabolic Markers as Potential Early Predictors of PFAS- Induced Immunotoxicity
Since the 1940s, industries and consumer products have utilized manufactured chemicals known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). They can be found in consumer products such as clothing, food packaging, cookware, cosmetics, carpet, and fire-fighting foam. PFAS are often referred to as …

Association Between Metabolic Markers and Amount of Alcohol per Occasion in Korean Men
… The association between alcohol consumption and metabolic markers was examined by drinking habits. RESULT: The mean age of participants was 47.0 ± 9.8 years and the mean body-mass index(BMI) was 24.3 ± 2.8kg/m2. 79.2% were drinkers and typical amount of alcohol per occasion were 68.35 ± 45.08g. …

Comparison on metabolic markers and hormone level according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level
OBJECT: Vitamin D have diverse effects on various metabolic markers and hormone. We investigated multiple roles of vitamin D by comparing metabolic markers and hormone levels according to serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level. METHODS: We investigated 3,399 women who had periodic health examination in …

The Impact of Antenatal Exercise in Overweight and Obese Women on Maternal and Offspring Health
… could improve offspring and maternal health and metabolic milieu, and protect offspring from adverse programming effects. Methods/Design A parallel two-arm randomised controlled trial was conducted in healthy non-smoking overweight and obese women (BMI≥25kg/m2) with a singleton pregnancy. …

The Effect of Dehydration on Metabolism and Energy Substrate Utilization
… of this study was to measure hormonal and metabolic markers in humans to see if simulating dehydration would emulate measures that are seen in prediabetic humans. 60 volunteers were divided into equal categories by sex and body mass index of normal or overweight. Participants completed two …

The Effect of Lycii Radicis Cortex Extract on Bone Formation in vitro and in vivo
… activity and an increased expression of bone metabolic markers Alpl, Runx2, and Bglap genes in both cell lines. There was no effect on the osteoclastic differentiation of primary-cultured monocytes from the mouse bone marrows. Furthermore, the effect of LRC extract in vivo was examined in …

Time-Restricted Feeding Extends Longevity in Drosophila Melanogaster
… health in Drosophila melanogaster, reduce metabolic markers in rodent models, and reduce glycemic indices in prediabetic men. However, the mechanism and long-term effects of this intervention remain elusive. To understand the effect of TRF on longevity we used the fruit fly Drosophila …

Effects of Temperature and Thyroid Hormone on Oxidative and Lipid Metabolism in Juvenile Lake Whitefish (Coregonus Clupeaformis)
… to varying environmental conditions by adjusting metabolic processes, the cellular mechanisms and endocrine control of these shifts have not been fully elucidated. I examined the interactions between elevated temperature exposure and hyperthyroidism on various metabolic markers in the cool-water …

Cyclodextrins as a suitable carrier for the induction of feeding and analgesia by Delta-9 THC: a preclinical study in the female rat
… (11-OH-THC and 11-COOH-THC), and fatty acid metabolic markers were measured to evaluate bioavailability and metabolic effects. The results demonstrate that HP-β-CD formulation significantly enhanced THC’s oral pharmacological profile. Acute dosing with 3 mg/kg produced robust antinociceptive …

Association of Individual and Combined Metabolic Risk Factors with Cancer
Introduction: The prevalence of metabolic risk factors (MRFs), individually and in the aggregate, is growing rapidly. There is limited biologic and epidemiologic evidence indicating an association between MRFs and cancer. The goal of this dissertation was to examine the association between …

Effect of yacon flour (Smallanthus sonchifolius) consumption on body weight, body composition, intestinal permeability and metabolic changes in excess body weight adults
… root. The effect of yacon flour consumption on metabolic markers has not been studied in excess body weight adult humans. Thus, we evaluated the effect of the consumption of yacon flour associated with an energy restricted diet on body composition, food intake, intestinal function, biochemical …

Neurobiological and metabolic mechanisms of binge-eating in anorexia and bulimia nervosa
… This thesis integrates observations across metabolic, neural and behavioural levels in women with and without eating disorders, providing novel insights into how perturbations across each strata interact with one another in illness and in health to shape eating behaviour. In Chapter 1, I …

Biopsy-implantable chemical sensor
… The sensor has direct access and can track metabolic markers, such as pH and oxygen, which have been shown to predict outcome, dose, and response to cancer treatment. These markers cannot be measured anywhere else except directly inside the tissue, and this sensor provides that access. The …

Comparison of short-term sprint interval versus traditional endurance training on metabolic adaptations in sedentary overweight/obese men
… interval training (SIT) has been shown to induce metabolic and performance adaptations that parallel those of traditional exercise recommendations (TER), and require considerably less time commitment. However, little is known about the effectiveness of short-term SIT in sedentary overweight …

Influence of Weight Loss on Metabolic and Mitochondrial Function in the Mature Horse
Obesity causes a multitude of metabolic issues in the horse, yet stepwise alterations in glucose and lipid metabolism, mitochondrial capacity and oxidant status during weight loss have yet to be analyzed. Skeletal muscle contains subsarcolemmal (SSM) and interfibrillar (IFM) mitochondria, which …

Adiponectin and Some Other Metabolic Risk Markers and Their Relation to Abdominal Obesity in Preschool Children // Адипонектин и някои други маркери на метаболитен риск и тяхната връзка с абдоминалното затлъстяване при деца в предучилищна възраст
Всички данни показват, че затлъстяването сред децата у нас е не само налично, но и прогресиращо явление, изискващо сериозен научен анализ и обществени мерки за бъдещото му ограничаване. Според нашите данни сред българските деца в предучилищна възраст вече има данни за повишен риск от хипертония, …
