Depot-specific modulation of adipokine levels in rat adipose tissue by diet-induced obesity: the effect of aerobic training and energy restriction
(Elsevier B.V., 2010-12-01)The present study examined the effects of aerobic training and energy restriction on adipokines levels in mesenteric (MEAT) and retroperitoneal (RPAT) white adipose tissue from obese rats. Male Wistar rats were fed with ...

The effect of thyroid hormones on the white adipose tissue gene expression of PAI-1 and its serum concentration
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2009-12-01)Metabolic syndrome is associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) overexpression may play a significant role in this process. A positive correlation ...

Long chain saturated fatty acids increase haptoglobin gene expression in C57BL/6J mice adipose tissue and 3T3-L1 cells
(Springer, 2010-06-01)Dietary lipids are directly related to the composition of adipose tissue, aetiology of obesity and arousal of obesity-related pathologies, like chronic inflammation states. Haptoglobin is an acute phase protein secreted ...

Oligofructose supplementation (10%) during pregnancy and lactation does not change the inflammatory effect of concurrent trans fatty acid ingestion on 21-day-old offspring
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2013-05-01)Background: Previously, we demonstrated that trans fatty acid ingestion during pregnancy and lactation caused a pro-inflammatory effect on the newborn. the opposite effect was described for gestational prebiotic intake. ...

Regulation of haptoglobin gene expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes by cytokines, catecholamines, and PPAR gamma
(Elsevier B.V., 2004-01-16)Factors which regulate expression of the haptoglobin (acute phase reactant) gene in adipocytes have been examined using 3T3-L1 cells. Haptoglobin expression was observed by Northern blotting in each of the major white ...
