Genome wide expression analysis and metabolic mechanisms predicting body weight maintenance
… the health systems. Adiposity, an increase in body fat mass, is a major hallmark of obesity. Adipose tissue is long known not only to store lipids but also to influence whole-body metabolism including food intake, energy expenditure and insulin sensitivity. Adipocytes can store lipids and …

Daily Self-Monitoring During the Winter Holiday Period: A Strategy for Holiday Weight Maintenance in Reduced-Obese Older Adults?
Weight management is problematic among Americans, as the number of overweight adults has risen to two-thirds of the population (1). Without the identification of successful approaches to promote weight stability, it is predicted that 86% of American adults will be overweight or obese by 2030 (2). …

Development of Novel Peptide-Doxorubicin Conjugates for Targeting Triple-Negative Breast Cancer
… PDC had lower tumor volume and showed better body weight maintenance and stable overall health compared to the mice treated with Dox. The PDC increased the total drug (PDC and Dox metabolized from PDC) circulation time compared to free Dox. The Dox metabolized from the PDC accumulated in the …

Success in reading… what’s the meaning? The relationship between changes in children’s aerobic fitness and language processing
… children’s cardiovascular health, including body weight maintenance and increases in aerobic fitness. Additionally, such health outcomes appear to be related to better academic achievement, as well as the underlying cognitive processes governing such performance (i.e., inhibitory control, …

The effect of overfeeding and obesity on canine adipose tissue and skeletal muscle transcriptomes
Overweight dogs have a reduced life expectancy and increased risk of chronic disease. During obesity development, adipose tissue undergoes major expansion and remodeling, but the biological processes involved are not well understood. The objective of study 1 was to analyze global gene expression …

Molecular and Physiological Adaptations to Weight Perturbation in Mice
… While population-based cut points based on body mass index (BMI) are frequently used as a means of identifying such individuals, this is an imprecise approach since the critical levels of adiposity in this regard differ substantially among individuals. Our common genetic predisposition to …
