Effect of non-esterified fatty acids on insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk in polycystic ovary syndrome
… of lipid in vitro studies.Methods: The effect of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) on IR, postprandial lipids and cardiovascular risk in obese women with PCOS compared to controls was examined by lowering NEFA levels with acute overnight acipimox and chronic 12 week tredaptive therapy. Additional …

Differential effects of fatty acids on the endothelium
… of the effects of physiologically-relevant fatty acid profiles on microvascular endothelial cell nitric oxide and prostacyclin production was also performed. Results: Neither EPA nor DHA supplementation influenced EPCs, capillary density, PMA, ABP, PWA, DVP or plasma cholesterol, …

The Association Between Non-Esterified Fatty Acids And Beta-Hydroxybutyrate During The Transition Period In Holstein Dairy Cows And Negative Downstream Outcomes - Disease Incidence, Milk Production And Reproduction
… affect reproduction and milk production. Non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and betahydroxybutyrate (BHBA) are measurable blood metabolites used to estimate the level of NEB. The objectives of herein were to: 1) identify critical concentrations of NEFA and BHBA above which the development …

Omics Techniques Applied to Diabetes Research - Focus on HSL-Null Mice and Clonal β-Cells
… elsewhere than in adipose tissue. Its role in non-adipose tissues is not completely understood, but the phenotype revealed by the characterization of several independently generated HSL-null mouse lines during the recent years suggests that HSL has several functions in addition to its role in …

Metabolic, reproductive, and performance evaluation in primiparous Nellore beef cows under grazing with different ages at breeding
… albumin, urea, beta-hydroxybutyrate (β-OHB) and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), progesterone at 30 and 45 postpartum and for insulin-like growth factor-1 at prepartum, 60 and 240 days postpartum., Milk collections were done at 60, 120 and 240 days postpartum. The data were analyzed using the …

Immune function, gene expression, blood indices and performance in transition dairy cows affected by diet and inflammation
… parturition leads to extensive mobilization of fatty acids stored in adipose tissue, thus, causing marked elevations in blood non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and B-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) concentrations (Drackley et al., 2001). Prepartal level of dietary energy can potentially affect adipose …

Effects Of Food Deprivation On Blood Lipid Concentration And Composition In Steller Sea Lions (eumetopias Jubatus)
… and sub-adults, during the breeding and non-breeding seasons to determine how these animals utilize lipids and the pattern of fatty acid mobilization from lipid stores during fasting. Four juveniles and 5 sub-adults were fasted for one and two weeks, respectively, and blood samples were …

Influence of body weight gain on insulin regulation, adipose tissue inflammation and lipid metabolism in equines
… fluoride plasma. Serum amyloid A (SAA), insulin, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and triglycerides were measured in serum. Levels of inflammatory parameters (CD68, IL-1β, IL-6, TNFα) and markers of lipid metabolism (FABP4, LPL) were analyzed in AT samples by RT-qPCR. The project was approved by …

Relationships between body mass index, appetite regulation and physical activity during shift-work and night-work
… levels of glucose and insulin, but not those in non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) or triglyceride. The aforementioned Significant correlations were not reported in daytime studies. Post-exercise alterations in serum leptin level were also found to be related to those in circulating levels of …

Dry period plane of energy and periparturient health condition: Effects on production and metabolic responses
… body lipid mobilization, concentrations of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) in blood, and lipid infiltration of liver. It is not known, however, whether these diets alter metabolism in healthy cows or act in some other manner to lessen the likelihood of …

Effects of hydroxy versus sulfate forms of trace minerals in milk replacer or starter on dairy calves through weaning
… of minerals, total protein, albumin, glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), and urea nitrogen. Chemical analysis of feeds revealed significant differences in the total concentration of Zn between sulfate- and hydroxy-supplemented MR (P = 0.04) and starter grain (P < 0.01). Total …

Identification of genetic loci underlying equine metabolic syndrome and laminitis risk
… measurements included baseline insulin, glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), triglycerides (TG), adiponectin, leptin and ACTH; and measurements 75 minutes after the OST included insulin (INS-OST) and glucose (GLU-OST). For inclusion in the study, each farm had to have at least one control …

The effect of fasting on anti-inflammatory mediators, IL-1RA and IL-1R2, and their role in resistance to sickness behaviors in mice
… signaling. Here we also demonstrate that free fatty acids (FFA) are increased in the plasma as a consequence of fasting. Using palmitic acid injection to mimic fastings FFA increase, we elucidated a novel mechanism by which IL-1R2 is up-regulated. This method showed increased IL-1R2 gene …
