OBJECTIVE
To investigate the hormonal, cardiovascular and metabolic responses of visceral vs subcutaneous obese men to infused adrenaline.
METHODS
Intervention study of an hour adrenaline infusion (0.01 micrograms/kg fat-free mass/min).
METHODS
Eighteen moderately obese men (age: 30-40 y, BMI: 28-34
1. Energy expenditure, plasma glucose and palmitate kinetics and leg glycerol release were determined simultaneously both before and during adrenaline infusion in lean and obese human subjects. Seven lean subjects (mean 96.5% of ideal body weight) were studied in the post-absorptive state and also
The objective of this work was to study adrenoceptor sensitivity in vivo in a number of tissues in lean and obese humans. The thermogenic, metabolic and cardiovascular responses to a 90 min infusion of adrenaline were measured. The subjects were eleven obese subjects (Body Mass Index 36.0 +/- 1.2
1. Plasma pancreatic polypeptide, plasma catecholamine, blood glucose, plasma insulin and plasma peptide YY concentrations were studied to assess differences between eight formerly obese and eight never-obese control women during 25 min of sham-feeding (with the sight and smell of an English
Diabetes represents one of the major health concerns, especially in developed countries. Some hormones such as the stress hormone adrenaline can induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and may worsen the diabetes. Therefore, the main aim of the investigation was to find out whether peripheral blood
1. Rapid effects of hormones on the metabolism of glycogen and fatty acids were studied in the perfused liver of normal and genetically obese (ob/ob) mice. 2. In livers from normal and obese mice adrenaline and angiotensin II stimulated glycogenolysis. 3. These hormones inhibited the synthesis de
1. In order to evaluate factors influencing thermogenesis in obesity, energy expenditure was measured before and during an adrenaline infusion (25 ng min-1 kg-1 ideal body weight for 30 min) in 22 obese females. 2. Thermogenic responses were related to body morphology, age and biochemistry. In
The effect of adrenaline on normal and obese human Na(+)-H(+) antiport (NHE 1) erythrocyte activity has been studied. Adrenaline increased both intracellular pH (pHi) and Na(+) influx in erythrocyte suspensions. This effect of adrenaline was inhibited by amiloride or EIPA, indicating that adrenaline
BACKGROUND
Sibutramine, an inhibitor of serotonin and noradrenaline uptake, reduces appetite to cause weight loss. This study tested the hypothesis that an increase in energy expenditure also contributes to this weight loss. In addition, the effects of sibutramine on adrenaline induced changes in
