Abstract:
... This study was performed to compare the effects of high carbohydrate and high lipid diets reception on the growth, feed utilization and glucose homeostasis of genetically improved farmed tilapia Oreochromis niloticus. Three isonitrogenous (ca 30.2% protein) diets were formulated with different levels of starch and lipid: the control (CON, 24.2% starch and 6.57% lipid), high carbohydrate diet (HCD, ...
... This study was carried out to investigate the influence of dietary lipid levels on the growth, immune response, and disease resistance of hybrid yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco♀×P. vachelli♂) during overwintering. Yellow catfish (initial body weight: 49.42 ± 1.33 g) were fed isonitrogenous diets (crude protein 40%) with three lipid levels (low lipid: 8.57%, medium lipid: 12.65%, and high l ...

... Ischemic kidney injury is a common clinical condition resulting from transient interruption of the kidney's normal blood flow, leading to oxidative stress, inflammation, and kidney dysfunction. The ketogenic diet (KD), a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet that stimulates endogenous ketone body production, has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in distinct tissues and might thus protect ...

Abstract:
... Diabetes mellitus is a chronic carbohydrate metabolism disorder, which could develop a series of complications and thus lead to poor quality of life or even mortality. Antrodia camphorata is a rare parasitic fungus and has been proven to be effective for treating type II diabetes.This study aims to evaluate the anti-diabetic activities of A. camphorata and its main compound antcin K, as well as to ...
... Obesity-induced colonic inflammation-stimulated colitis is one of the main causes of colorectal cancer. Dietary polysaccharides are considered an effective agent for relieving obesity-induced inflammatory diseases such as diabetes and colitis. In this work, the protective effects of a polysaccharide (RTFP) extracted from Rosa roxburghii Tratt fruit on barrier dysfunction and inflammation were inve ...
... In this study, we reported a thermal stable and non-toxic heteropolysaccharide F31, which decreased the blood glucose of diabetic mice (21.75 mmol/L) induced by high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) to 12.56 and 15.18 mmol/L (P < 0.01) at 180 and 60 mg/kg, depicting remarkable hypoglycemic effects of 42.25 and 30.21%. Moreover, F31 repaired islet cells and increased insulin secretion, promo ...

Abstract:
... Distinct macrophage populations exert highly heterogeneity and perform various functions, among which, a crucial function of lipid metabolism is highlighted. However, the role of histidine metabolism disorder in macrophage lipid metabolism remains elusive. Addressed this question, we sorted and cultured the bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) of histidine decarboxylase (Hdc) knockout (Hdc⁻/⁻) ...

... Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is defined as the presence of hepatic steatosis in addition to one of three metabolic conditions: overweight/obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, or metabolic dysregulation. Chronic exposure to excess dietary fatty acids may cause hepatic steatosis and metabolic disturbances. The alteration of the quality of mitochondria is one of the fact ...

Abstract:
... The molecular mechanism of in hyperlipidemia-induced renal injury has not been elucidated. Angiogenin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) is a key regulator of lipid metabolism. The role of ANGPTL4 hyperlipidemia-induced renal injury has not been reported. Wild type C57 mice and gene angptl4 knockout mice were fed with 60% high fat diet or normal diet respectively. The serum lipid, urinary albumin and renal ...

Abstract:
... Obesity is becoming a global epidemic as a result of high-calorie food intake and unhealthy lifestyles. Different marine plants, especially brown algae (Ecklonia cava), are traditionally used to treat different health-related issues. The study was carried out to investigate the anti-obesity properties of E. cava 70% ethanol extract. To evaluate the anti-obesity effect of E. cava, both in vitro and ...
... Ayurveda is a holistic system of medicine and describes a vast array of herbs and herbal mixtures that are been demonstrated to possess efficacy in research investigations. Guggulutikthaka gritha (GTG) is one such drug evaluated for its role in skin and bone disease. In the current study, the hypoglycemic, hypolipidemic, and anti-inflammatory effect of the drug GTG was studied with the scope to tr ...
... The present study was designed to explore whether Cydonia oblonga Miller extract (COME) had anti-obesity effects and the mechanism involved. COME reduced body weight, fat mass, adipose tissue weight, and serum levels of insulin, triglyceride, and leptin, but increased the serum levels of adiponectin and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol in high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese C57BL/6 mice. COME in ...
... Corilagin, a natural polyphenol compound isolated from Phyllanthus urinaria L., exerts various pharmacological effects, such as antihyperglycemic, antitumor, and antioxidative stress properties, but the mechanisms underlying the antiatherosclerotic effects of corilagin have not been entirely elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the antiatherosclerotic effects of corilagin using a high ...
... Prediabetes (PreD), which is associated with impaired glucose tolerance and fasting blood glucose, is a potential risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). Growing evidence suggests the role of the gastrointestinal microbiota in both PreD and T2D, which opens the possibility for a novel nutritional approach, based on probiotics, for improving glucose regulation and delaying disease progressi ...
... Probiotic is a promising nutritional intervention for the prevention and alleviation of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In this study, the remission potential of a multi-species probiotic (Lactobacillus acidophilus NCFM, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Bifidobacterium lactis HN019 and Streptococcus thermophilus ST447) and its fermented yoghurt on the symptoms of high fat diet and streptozotocin induced T2DM m ...

Abstract:
... Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a prevalent liver disease, but currently has no specific medication in clinic. Antrodia cinnamomea (AC) is a medicinal fungus and it has been shown that AC can inhibit high fat diet (HFD)-induced lipid deposition in mouse livers, but the effective monomer in AC and mechanism against NAFLD remain unclear. It has been reported that aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 ...

Abstract:
... The homeostasis of circadian clock linked to bile acid (BA) metabolism and gut microbiota has profound benefits in maintaining the health status of the host. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevention and regulation of apple polyphenol extract (APE) on BA metabolism and gut microbiota by means of modulation of circadian rhythms in mice. Eighty male C57BL/6 mice were randomized into fo ...
... Overweight, obesity, and related diseases are currently the major public health problems worldwide. Astilbin, extracted from the rhizome of Smilax glabra Roxb., is known to have significant anti-inflammatory activity and hepatoprotective effect. Studies have shown that it can inhibit adipogenesis in adipocytes in vitro; however, the intervention benefits of astilbin against obesity and related dis ...
... Obesity is a chronic condition involving inflammation and oxidative stress that commonly predisposes affected individuals to develop metabolic disorders. We hypothesize that Ilex paraguariensis (IP) can modulate oxidative stress and inflammation underpinning metabolic disorders caused by obesity. C57BL/6 mice were fed a high‐fat diet (HFD group) for 12 weeks. Concomitantly, some mice were treated ...

... Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) ethyl esters are of interest given their clinical approval for lowering circulating triglycerides and cardiometabolic disease risk. EPA ethyl esters prevent metabolic complications driven by a high fat diet in male mice; however, their impact on female mice is less studied. Herein, we first investigated how EPA influences the metabolic profile of female C57BL/6J mice co ...
