Adipocytes are among the most important cells for energy storage, metabolism and balance in mammals. Dysfunctional adipocytes are closely associated with type 2 diabetes and obesity, and thus with insulin resistance and inflammation. Recent studies show that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress may be
Epidemiologic findings offer the promise that coffee or its many constituents may be useful as a dietary intervention in type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevention. We aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved in the ameliorative effects of caffeinated coffee (CC), decaffeinated coffee (DC) and
Over the last two decades, there have been no significant changes in patient outcomes in relation to the treatment of osteosarcoma, an aggressive malignant neoplasm. It is known that vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) plays a crucial role in angiogenesis and in osteosarcoma. Moreover,

The disposition of many drugs in obesity is altered, although little is known of the effect of obesity on the pharmacokinetics of anti-cancer drugs. In this report the authors describe the pharmacokinetics of high-dose methotrexate in an obese woman (184% ideal body weight) with osteosarcoma. For
BACKGROUND
In humans and rodents obesity appears to promote some cancers by increasing incidence, tumor aggressiveness, recurrence, and fatality. However, the relationship between obesity and cancer in dogs has not been thoroughly evaluated.
OBJECTIVE
Whether body condition score (BCS) at the time
Estrogen, produced mainly in the ovaries, plays a role in sexual development, metabolism, and bone formation. Thus, estrogen deficiency due to menopause can lead to overweight, dyslipidemia, and osteoporosis. In this study, we compared the effects of extracts of Sargassum fusiforme,
Purpose To estimate the incidence of late-occurring venous thromboembolism (VTE) among survivors of childhood cancer and to identify risk factors for VTE to facilitate diagnosis and prevention. Methods The Childhood Cancer Survivor Study is a multi-institutional cohort of 24,355 5-year childhood
BACKGROUND
Serum leptin levels are strongly and directly related to fat body mass (FBM). Bone mineral density (BMD) increases with FBM, and obesity has a protective effect against osteoporosis. We have previously demonstrated that leptin therapy has a significant effect in preventing
Introduction: G protein-coupled receptor 120 (GPR120) is a Gαq coupled GPCR specifically activated by long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). Functionally, it has been identified as a member of a family of lipid-binding free fatty acid
At present due to the development and availability of different types of implants for orthopaedic surgery the orthopaedic surgeon must resort to static and biomechanical thinking. Therefore he does not always appreciate the metabolic function of osseous tissue. This fact is demonstrated on three
OBJECTIVE
To report and describe a modified posterior-only approach (paraspinal approach) for total en bloc spondylectomy (TES) of lumbar spinal tumors.
METHODS
From February 2013 to June 2014, 5 patients with lumbar spinal tumors who underwent TES through a posterior-only paraspinal approach were
UNASSIGNED
The effect of temporal changes in cancer therapy on health status among childhood cancer survivors has not been evaluated.
UNASSIGNED
To compare proportions of self-reported adverse health status outcomes among childhood cancer survivors across 3 decades.
UNASSIGNED
Cross-sectional.
Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), a member of the transforming growth factor superfamily, has been shown to have inhibitory effect on many tumor types. However, the effect of BMP-2 on human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still unknown. We previously showed that BMP-2 inhibits tumorigenicity of
Various physiological and behavioral processes exhibit circadian rhythmicity. These rhythms are usually maintained by negative feedback loops of core clock genes, namely, CLOCK, BMAL, PER, and CRY. Recently, dysfunction in the circadian clock has been recognized as an important foundation for the
