alpha fructose/necrosis

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of moderate-intensity regular exercise and/or an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition on tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and glucose and lipid metabolism parameters. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) were fed a fructose-rich

The study determines the effect of soy protein on inflammatory status and expression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB P(65)) and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in a metabolic syndrome (MS) model. MS was induced in adult male rats by feeding them a high fructose diet (60 g/100 g

A homodimeric, fructose-binding lectin was isolated from Del Monte bananas by using a protocol that involved ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and SP-Sepharose, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. Not only fructose, but also glucose, mannose, rhamnose

In the present study, we investigated the role of NADPH oxidase in F (fructose)-rich-diet-induced hepatic OS (oxidative stress) and metabolic changes, and their prevention by apocynin co-administration. Wistar rats were fed for 21 days on (i) a control diet, (ii) a control diet plus 10% F in the

Fructose-induced hepatic ATP depletion prevents TNF-induced apoptosis, whereas it contrarily enhances CD95-induced hepatocyte apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. By contrast, transformed liver cells are not protected against TNF due to metabolic alterations, allowing selective tumor targeting. We

Background: It has been proposed that irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a low-grade mucosal inflammatory disease.Objective: To characterize the intestinal inflammatory profile in IBS patients with or without fructose intolerance.Design: Patients referred to colonoscopy with IBS

The effect of pepino polyphenolic extract (PPE) on diabetic neuropathy was examined. Using HPLC/ESI-MS-MS analysis, PPE was demonstrated to contain coumaroyl and caffeoyl derivatives among polyphenols. PPE at 0.5 or 1% was supplied to diabetic mice for 12 weeks. The PPE intake at two doses

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Jiang-Tang-Ke-Li (JTKL), a Chinese medicine used to treat diabetes mellitus, on insulin resistance and hypertension in fructose-fed rats (FFR). Six-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed either normal rat chow (control) or a fructose-rich chow

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the interaction between a high-fructose diet and PA levels on postprandial lipidemia and inflammation in normal-weight, recreationally active individuals. METHODS Twenty-two men and women (age, 21.2 ± 0.6 yr; body mass index, 22.5 ± 0.6 kg · m(-2)) consumed an

BACKGROUND Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) is able to kill cancer cells via receptor-mediated cell death requiring adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Clinical usage of TNF so far is largely limited by its profound hepatotoxicity. Recently, it was found in the murine system that specific protection of

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of resveratrol, alone and in combination with fenofibrate, on fructose-induced metabolic genes abnormalities in rats. METHODS Giving a fructose-enriched diet (FED) to rats for 12 wk was used as a model for inducing hepatic dyslipidemia and insulin resistance. Adult

Previous transcriptional studies in heat-stressed corals have shown that many genes are responsive to generalized heat stress whereas the expression patterns of specific gene networks after heat stress show strong correlations with variation in bleaching outcomes. However, where these specific genes

Rich diet and lack of exercise are causing a surge in obesity, insulin resistance and steatosis, which can evolve into steatohepatitis. Patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis have increased lipid peroxidation, increased tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and increased mitochondrial

Objective: The link between metabolic derangement of the gut-2013liver-visceral white adipose tissue (v-WAT) axis and gut microbiota was investigated. Methods: Rats were fed a fructose-rich diet and treated with an antibiotic mix. Inflammation was measured in portal plasma, ileum, liver, and v-WAT,
