Objective: Adiponectin influences insulin sensitivity (SI) and fat oxidation. Little is known about changes in adiponectin with changes in the fat content of eucaloric diets. We hypothesized that dietary fat content may influence adiponectin according to an individual's SI. Research Methods and Procedures: We measured changes in adiponectin, insulin, glucose, and leptin in response to high‐fat (HF) and low‐fat (LF) eucaloric diets in lean (n = 10) and obese (n = 11) subjects. Obese subjects were further subdivided in relation to a priori SI. Results: We found significantly higher insulin, glucose, and leptin and lower adiponectin in obese vs. lean subjects during both HF and LF. The mean group values of these measurements, including adiponectin (lean, HF 21.9 ± 9.8; LF, 20.8 ± 6.6; obese, HF 10.0 ± 3.3; LF, 9.5 ± 2.3 ng/mL; mean ± SD), did not significantly change between HF and LF diets. However, within the obese group, the insulin‐sensitive subjects had significantly higher adiponectin during HF than did the insulin‐resistant subjects. Additionally, the change in adiponectin from LF to HF diet correlated positively with the obese subjects’ baseline SI. Discussion: Although in lean and obese women, group mean values for adiponectin did not change significantly with a change in fat content of a eucaloric diet, a priori measured SI in obese subjects predicted an increase in adiponectin during the HF diet; this may be a mechanism that preserves SI in an already obese group. 相似文献

In the present study we have evaluated the effect of a single hemodialysis session on the brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in plasma [BDNF]pl and in serum [BDNF]s as well as on the plasma isoprostanes concentration [F2 isoprostanes]pl, plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and plasma cortisol levels in chronic kidney disease patients. Twenty male patients (age 69.8?±?2.9?years (mean?±?SE)) with end-stage renal disease undergoing maintenance hemodialysis on regular dialysis treatment for 15?C71?months participated in this study. A single hemodialysis session, lasting 4.2?±?0.1?h, resulted in a decrease (P?=?0.014) in [BDNF]s by ~42?% (2,574?±?322 vs. 1,492?±?327?pg?ml?1). This was accompanied by an increase (P?<?10?4) of [F2-Isoprostanes]pl (38?±?3 vs. 116?±?16?pg?ml?1), decrease (P?<?10?4) in TAC (1,483?±?41 vs. 983?±?35 trolox equivalents, ??mol?l?1) and a decrease (P?=?0.004) in plasma cortisol level (449.5?±?101.2 vs. 315.3?±?196.3?nmol?l?1). No changes (P?>?0.05) in [BDNF]pl and the platelets count were observed after a single dialysis session. Furthermore, basal [BDNF]s in the chronic kidney disease patients was significantly lower (P?=?0.03) when compared to the age-matched control group (n?=?23). We have concluded that the observed decrease in serum BDNF level after hemodialysis accompanied by elevated [F2-Isoprostanes]pl and decreased plasma TAC might be caused by enhanced oxidative stress induced by hemodialysis. 相似文献

Objective: To compare the response and recovery of blood pressure (BP) and sodium excretion (UNaV) in response to a behavioral stressor in overweight/obese and lean adolescents. Research Methods and Procedures: Twenty‐five lean (12% to 20% body fat) and 59 overweight/obese (>25% body fat) normotensive adolescents were provided all meals for 3 days (average sodium intake, 4000 ± 200 mg/d), before performing the stressor on the third day. There was a 2‐hour pre‐stress rest, followed by a 1‐hour stress (involving a video game task), and a 2‐hour recovery. Percentage of body fat was obtained from DXA. UNaV was measured hourly, whereas systolic BP and diastolic BP measurements were obtained at 15‐minute intervals, and averaged for each 1‐hour period. Results: There was no significant difference between the lean and overweight/obese group for the response of systolic BP and diastolic BP (group by time interaction, p = 0.60 and p = 0.64, respectively). However, the lean group had a significantly greater increase in UNaV in response to the stressor compared with the overweight/obese group (p = 0.02). UNaV remained elevated compared with baseline in both groups at the 1‐hour (p ≤ 0.0001) and 2‐hour (p ≤ 0.0001) post‐time points. Furthermore, there was a tendency for a larger number of sodium retainers in the overweight/obese group compared with the lean group (39.0% vs. 20.0%; χ2 = 2.85, df = 1, p = 0.09). Discussion: This study provided evidence that sodium regulation was impaired during a behavioral stress in overweight/obese individuals compared with lean individuals. 相似文献

The rise in obesity‐related morbidity in children and adolescents requires urgent prevention and treatment strategies. Currently, only limited data are available on the effects of exercise programs on insulin resistance, and visceral, hepatic, and intramyocellular fat accumulation. We hypothesized that a 12‐week controlled aerobic exercise program without weight loss reduces visceral, hepatic, and intramyocellular fat content and decreases insulin resistance in sedentary Hispanic adolescents. Twenty‐nine postpubertal (Tanner stage IV and V), Hispanic adolescents, 15 obese (7 boys, 8 girls; 15.6 ± 0.4 years; 33.7 ± 1.1 kg/m2; 38.3 ± 1.5% body fat) and 14 lean (10 boys, 4 girls; 15.1 ± 0.3 years; 20.6 ± 0.8 kg/m2; 18.9 ± 1.5% body fat), completed a 12‐week aerobic exercise program (4 × 30 min/week at ≥70% of peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak)). Measurements of cardiovascular fitness, visceral, hepatic, and intramyocellular fat content (magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)), and insulin resistance were obtained at baseline and postexercise. In both groups, fitness increased (obese: 13 ± 2%, lean: 16 ± 4%; both P < 0.01). In obese participants, intramyocellular fat remained unchanged, whereas hepatic fat content decreased from 8.9 ± 3.2 to 5.6 ± 1.8%; P < 0.05 and visceral fat content from 54.7 ± 6.0 to 49.6 ± 5.5 cm2; P < 0.05. Insulin resistance decreased indicated by decreased fasting insulin (21.8 ± 2.7 to 18.2 ± 2.4 µU/ml; P < 0.01) and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMAIR) (4.9 ± 0.7 to 4.1 ± 0.6; P < 0.01). The decrease in visceral fat correlated with the decrease in fasting insulin (R2 = 0.40; P < 0.05). No significant changes were observed in any parameter in lean participants except a small increase in lean body mass (LBM). Thus, a controlled aerobic exercise program, without weight loss, reduced hepatic and visceral fat accumulation, and decreased insulin resistance in obese adolescents. 相似文献

In addition to well‐known electrocardiographic measurements, as QT, QT dispersion, and QT apex dispersion, new parameters such as Tpeak‐Tend, Tpeak‐Tend dispersion, and Tpeak‐Tend/QT ratio have been recently introduced as indexes of increased arrhythmic risk. The aim of the present study was to test, in overweight and obese subjects not affected by conditions of comorbidity, the aforementioned markers of ventricular repolarization. We studied 60 athletic subjects with normal body weight (21 females and 39 males, BMI between 19 and 24, mean BMI 22.0 ± 2.0 kg/m2, aged 14–64 years, mean age 32 ± 13.59) and 60 sedentary and overweight/obese subjects (34 overweight and 26 obese, 22 females, and 38 males, BMI between 26 and 55, mean BMI 30.7 ± 5.7 kg/m2, aged 14–64, mean age 38 ± 14.49). Each subject underwent anthropometric measurements and a 12‐lead electrocardiogram, from which the following different parameters were calculated: QT, corrected QT, QT dispersion, QT apex dispersion, Tpeak‐Tend, Tpeak‐Tend dispersion and Tpeak‐Tend/QT ratio were calculated. The aforementioned repolarization markers resulted, respectively: 340.2 ± 25.1, 373.8 ± 25.9, 29 ± 16.2, 23.5 ± 14.6, 87.3 ± 12.8, 26.5 ± 16.8, and 0.22 ± 0.03 ms in control subjects and 362.5 ± 28.5, 397.4 ± 35.4, 34.5 ± 16.8, 30.7 ± 16.3, 90.5 ± 15.2, 27 ± 17.1, and 0.22 ± 0.04 ms in overweight/obese subjects. Neither uncomplicated obesity nor overweight were associated with a statistically significant difference in QT dispersion, QT apex dispersion, Tpeak‐Tend, Tpeak‐Tend dispersion, and Tpeak‐Tend/QT ratio; QT and corrected QT were the only parameters that showed statistically significant variations between normal weight and overweight/obese subjects. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to assess the effects of folic acid on coronary flow and oxidative stress markers with or without
non-specific inhibition of nitric oxide synthase by l-NAME in isolated rat hearts. The hearts of male Wistar albino rats (n = 12, age 8 weeks, body mass 180–200 g) were retrograde perfused according to the Langendorff technique at gradually increased
constant perfusion pressure (40–120 cmH2O). Coronary flow and markers of oxidative stress: nitrite outflow, superoxide anion production, and index of lipid peroxidation
(by measuring thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) in coronary effluent were calculated. The experiments were performed
during control conditions and in presence of folic acid (100 μM) alone or folic acid (100 μM) plus l-NAME (30 μM). Control values of coronary flow varied in range from 4.37 ± 0.10 ml/min/g wt at 40 cmH2O to 12.05 ± 0.42 ml/min/g wt at 120 cmH2O. Nitrite outflow varied from 1.68 ± 0.17 nmol/min/g wt at 40 cmH2O to 3.56 ± 0.17 nmol/min/g wt at 120 cmH2O and was parallel with coronary perfusion pressure-coronary flow curve. Folic acid significantly increased coronary flow
(40–120 cmH2O, 5.63 ± 0.10 ml/min/g wt and 15.2 ± 0.42 ml/min/g wt, respectively) and was accompanied by significant increase in nitrite
outflow (2.28 ± 0.29 nmol/min/g wt at 40 cmH2O to 6.66 ± 0.50 nmol/min/g wt at 120 cmH2O). In addition, folic acid significantly decreased superoxide anion production especially at upper coronary perfusion pressure
values (60% at 120 cmH2O) and increased index of lipid peroxidation (37.16% at 120 cmH2O), respectively. Folic acid plus l-NAME did not change control values of coronary flow significantly. However, folic acid plus l-NAME increased nitrite outflow especially at upper coronary perfusion pressure values (43.05% at 120 cmH2O) and did not change significantly superoxide anion production or index of lipid peroxidation versus control values, respectively.
The results clearly showed that on isolated rat hearts at gradually increased constant perfusion pressure, folic acid increased
coronary flow, increased nitrite outflow, decreased superoxide anion production, and increased index of lipid peroxidation.
These effects were reversed or blocked by l-NAME thus demonstrating mediation or at least participation of NO in the mechanism of the folic acid-induced effects. 相似文献

The existence of a restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) closely linked to the fatty locus between the Zucker (Z) and Brown Norway (BN) rat strains allows evaluation of early effects of the fatty (fa) gene using offspring of back-crosses (N2) between F1 females and Zucker obese males. We examined several metabolic characteristics of N2 animals to determine if these hybrid animals exhibited similar characteristics of the obese syndrome to those of Zucker rats. Females from crosses of obese male Zucker (fd/fa) and lean female BN (+/+) rats were back-crossed to their sires, resulting in twelve N2 litters. At 9 weeks of age, liver, spleen, interscapular brown fat (IBAT), and gonadal, retroperitoneal (RP), and inguinal fat depots were removed and weighed. Samples of the RP depot were analyzed for cell size and number. Obese N2 rats were hyperphagic, with body weights in the range of those of obese Zucker rats. Obese N2 rats were also hyperinsulinemic [mean f SEM, pU/ml: females, 7.9 ± 0.6 vs. 82.1 f 8.4 (lean vs. obese); males, 10.5 ± 1.6 vs. 128.5 ± 13.4 (lean vs. obese)] and mildly hyperglycemic [mean ± SEM, mg/dl: females, 104.1 ± 2.0 vs. 139.0 ± 14.7 (lean vs. obese); males, 100.9 ± 2.6 vs. 132.0 ± 2.8 (lean vs. obese) p ≤ 0.05]. White fat depots in obese tats were 3 to 7 times heavier than those in lean rats; adipocyte numbers in RP depots were 50% greater in obese than in lean rats; and cell size was more than 3 times larger. IBAT, liver, and spleen were also heavier in obese vs. lean rats, while tail lengths were shorter. Percent lean carcass mass and % carcass protein were about 30% greater in lean vs. obese rats, while % carcass fat in obese rats was 5 times greater than that of lean rats. Thus, phenotypic expression of the fa gene in ZBN hybrid animals, with approximately 25% of their genetic background coming from the BN strain, appears to be similar to that in Zucker rats. Given the similarity of phenotypic expression of the fa gene between the Zucker strain and ZBN hybrids, it is plausible to consider using ZBN hybrids for studies of early manifestations of fa gene action prior to onset of detectable obesity . 相似文献

Obesity has recently been linked to the composition of human microbiota and the production of short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). However, these findings rely on experimental studies carried out using rather small and defined groups of volunteers or model animals. Our aim was to evaluate differences within the human intestinal microbiota and fecal SCFA concentration of lean and obese subjects. A total of 98 subjects volunteered to take part in this study. The BMI in kg/m2 of 30 volunteers was within the lean range, 35 were overweight and 33 were obese. The fecal microbiota was characterized by real‐time PCR analyses. With the primers used herein we were able to cover 82.3% (interquartile range of 68.3–91.4%) of the total microbiota detectable with a universal primer. In addition, the concentration of SCFA was evaluated. The total amount of SCFA was higher in the obese subject group (P = 0.024) than in the lean subject group. The proportion of individual SCFA changed in favor of propionate in overweight (P = 0.019) and obese subjects (P = 0.028). The most abundant bacterial groups in faeces of lean and obese subjects belonged to the phyla Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. The ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes changed in favor of the Bacteroidetes in overweight (P = 0.001) and obese subjects (P = 0.005). Our results are in line with previous reports suggesting that SCFA metabolism might play a considerable role in obesity. However, our results contradict previous reports with regard to the contribution of various bacterial groups to the development of obesity and this issue remains controversial. 相似文献

Visceral fat has been linked to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); and emerging data links RBP4 gene expression in adipose tissue with insulin resistance. In this study, we examined RBP4 protein expression in omental adipose tissue obtained from 24 severely obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, and 10 lean controls (4 males/6 females, BMI = 23.2 ± 1.5 kg/m2) undergoing elective abdominal surgeries. Twelve of the obese patients had T2DM (2 males/10 females, BMI: 44.7 ± 1.5 kg/m2) and 12 had normal glucose tolerance (NGT: 4 males/8 females, BMI: 47.6 ± 1.9 kg/m2). Adipose RBP4, glucose transport protein‐4 (GLUT4), and p85 protein expression were determined by western blot. Blood samples from the bariatric patients were analyzed for serum RBP4, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and glucose. Adipose RBP4 protein expression (NGT: 11.0 ± 0.6; T2DM: 11.8 ± 0.7; lean: 8.7 ± 0.8 arbitrary units) was significantly increased in both NGT (P = 0.03) and T2DM (P = 0.005), compared to lean controls. GLUT4 protein was decreased in both NGT (P = 0.02) and T2DM (P = 0.03), and p85 expression was increased in T2DM subjects, compared to NGT (P = 0.03) and lean controls (P = 0.003). Regression analysis showed a strong correlation between adipose RBP4 protein and BMI for all subjects, as well as between adipose RBP4 and fasting glucose levels in T2DM subjects (r = 0.76, P = 0.004). Further, in T2DM, serum RBP4 was correlated with p85 expression (r = 0.68, P = 0.01), and adipose RBP4 protein trended toward an association with p85 protein (r = 0.55, P = 0.06). These data suggest that RBP4 may regulate adiposity, and p85 expression in obese‐T2DM, thus providing a link to impaired insulin signaling and diabetes in severely obese patients. 相似文献

- 1.1. Hematocrit (Hct), plasma sodium ([Na]pl), chloride ([Cl]pl) and osmotic concentration (Osmpl); volume and concentration of 1.0MNaCl induced salt gland secretion (SGS); and weights of osmoregulatory organs: kidneys, adrenal glands, and salt glands and nonosmoregulatory organs (liver and heart) were determined in nestling California gulls, Larus californiens (CG), on Krakatoa Islet, Mono Lake, California.
- 2.2. The mean Hct was 40.0% + 1.0%, the mean [Na]pl and [Cl]pl were 153.9 ± 0.9 and 110.1 ± 0.5 mM (n = 22); and the mean Osmpl was 323.6 ± 1.3 mOsm/kg (n = 18).
- 3.3. In CG nestlings with a mean age of 10 days (n = 7), the mean SGS [Na] was 719 ± 19 mM and the birds secreted 81 ± 18% of the injected fluid containing 59 ± 13% of the injected Na. By the mean age of 23 days (n = 7), mean SGS [Na] was slightly higher (790 ± 30 mM than in younger birds (P < 0.05), but the percentage of secreted fluid (54 ± 10%) and Na (42 ± 6%) tended to be less.
- 4.4. In 18 CG nestlings mean organ weights (% body weight) were: kidneys 1.52 ±0.06%; salt glands, 0.13 ±0.01%, and adrenal glands 0.07 ±0.01%.
- 5.5. Nestling CG had significantly greater Hct (P < 0.001), [Na]pl and [ci]pl (P < 0.001), Osmpl, (P < 0.005), and adrenal gland weight (P < 0.01), compared to nestling glaucous-winged Gulls (GWG), L. glaucescens (Hughes, 1984), which nest under cooler, moister conditions. CG kidney weight was smaller (P < 0.001); salt gland weight and salt excretion were the same as GWG.

Obese persons are at increased cardiovascular risk and exhibit increased arterial stiffness and impaired endothelial function of large‐ and medium‐size arteries. We hypothesized that normotensive subjects suffering from severe obesity would also present remodeling and endothelial dysfunction of small resistance arteries. A total of 16 lean (age: 49.6 ± 2.9 years, BMI: 22.9 ± 0.3 kg/m2, mean ± s.e.m.) and 17 age‐matched severely obese (BMI: 41.1 ± 2.3 kg/m2) normotensive subjects were investigated. None had glucose or lipid metabolic abnormalities except for insulin resistance. Resistance arteries, dissected from abdominal subcutaneous tissue, were assessed on a pressurized myograph. For superimposable blood pressure, the media thickness, media cross‐sectional area (CSA), and media‐to‐lumen ratio values of resistance arteries were markedly and significantly greater in obese compared to lean subjects (media thickness 26.3 ± 0.6 vs. 16.2 ± 0.6 µm, CSA 22,272 ± 1,339 vs. 15,183 ± 1,186 µm2, and media‐to‐lumen ratio 0.113 ± 0.006 vs. 0.059 ± 0.001, respectively, P < 0.01). Acetylcholine‐induced relaxation was impaired in vessels from obese subjects compared to the lean individuals (?40.4 ± 1.3%, P < 0.01), whereas endothelium‐independent vasorelaxation was similar in all groups. Stiffness of small arteries as assessed by the stress/strain relationship was similar in lean and severely obese subjects. We conclude that severe human obesity is associated with profound alterations in structural and functional characteristics of small arteries, which may be responsible for the presence of elevated cardiovascular risk and increased incidence of coronary, cerebrovascular and renal events reported in obesity. 相似文献

Objective: Obesity is associated with lower rates of skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation (FAO), which is linked to insulin resistance. FAO is reduced further in obese African‐American (AAW) vs. white women (CW) and may also be lower in lean AAW vs. CW. In lean CW, endurance exercise training (EET) elevates the oxidative capacity of skeletal muscle. Therefore, we determined whether EET would elevate skeletal muscle FAO similarly in AAW and CW with a lower lipid oxidative capacity. Research Methods and Procedures: In vitro rates of FAO were assessed in rectus abdominus muscle strips using [1‐14C] palmitate (Pal) from lean AAW [BMI = 24.2 ± 0.9 (standard error) kg/m2] and CW (23.6 ± 0.8 kg/m2) undergoing voluntary abdominal surgery. Lean AAW (22 ± 0.9 kg/m2) and CW (24 ± 0.8 kg/m2) and obese AAW (36 ± 1.2 kg/m2) and CW (40 ± 1.3 kg/m2) underwent 10 consecutive days of EET on a cycle ergometer (60 min/d, 75% peak oxygen uptake). FAO was measured in vastus lateralis homogenates as captured 14CO2 using [1‐14C] Pal, palmitoyl‐CoA (Pal‐CoA), and palmityl‐carnitine (Pal‐Car). Results: Muscle strip experiments showed suppressed rates of FAO (p = 0.03) in lean AAW vs. CW. EET increased the rates of skeletal muscle Pal oxidation (p = 0.05) in both lean AAW and CW. In obese subjects, Pre‐EET Pal (but not Pal‐CoA or Pal‐Car) oxidation was lower (p = 0.05) in AAW vs. CW. EET increased Pal oxidation 100% in obese AAW (p < 0.05) and 59% (p < 0.05) in obese CW. Similar increases (p < 0.05) in post‐EET FAO were observed for Pal‐CoA and Pal‐Car in both groups. Discussion: Both lean and obese AAW possess a lower capacity for skeletal muscle FAO, but EET increases FAO similarly in both AAW and CW. These data suggest the use of EET for treatment against obesity and diabetes for both AAW and CW. 相似文献

Objective: The objective was to evaluate two accelerometers, the RT3 and the TriTrac‐R3D for their ability to produce estimates of physical activity‐related energy expenditure (PAEE) in overweight/obese adults. Research Methods and Procedures: PAEE estimates from both accelerometers were obtained in two experiments. In Experiment 1, 13 overweight/obese subjects (BMI 34.2 ± 6.4 kg/m2) were monitored over 2 weeks in everyday life, PAEE being simultaneously measured by the doubly labeled water method (DLW). In Experiment 2, 8 overweight/obese subjects (BMI 34.3 ± 5.0 kg/m2) and 10 normal‐weight subjects (BMI 20.8 ± 2.1 kg/m2) were monitored during a treadmill walking protocol, PAEE being simultaneously measured by indirect calorimetry. Results: In Experiment 1, there was no significant difference between methods in mean PAEE (DLW: 704 ± 223 kcal/d, RT3: 656 ± 140 kcal/d, TriTrac‐R3D 624 ± 419 kcal/d). The relative difference between methods (accelerometer vs. DLW) was ?17.1% ± 16.7% for the RT3 and ?20.0 ± 44.6% for the TriTrac‐R3D. Correlation for PAEE between RT3 and DLW was higher than between TriTrac‐R3D and DLW (r = 0.67, p < 0.05 and r = 0.36, p = 0.25, respectively). The 95% confidence interval (CI) (kcal/d) of the mean difference between methods was large, amounting to ?385 to 145 for the RT3 and ?887 to 590 for the TriTrac‐R3D. In Experiment 2, both accelerometers were sensitive to the changes in treadmill speed, with no significant difference in mean PAEE between methods in overweight/obese subjects. Conclusions: Although both accelerometers did not provide accurate estimates of PAEE at individual levels, the data suggest that RT3 has the potential to assess PAEE at group levels in overweight/obese subjects. 相似文献

Objective: The capacity for lipid and carbohydrate (CHO) oxidation during exercise is important for energy partitioning and storage. This study examined the effects of obesity on lipid and CHO oxidation during exercise. Research Methods and Procedures: Seven obese and seven lean [body mass index (BMI), 33 ± 0.8 and 23.7 ± 1.2 kg/m2, respectively] sedentary, middle‐aged men matched for aerobic capacity performed 60 minutes of cycle exercise at similar relative (50% Vo 2max) and absolute exercise intensities. Results: Obese men derived a greater proportion of their energy from fatty‐acid oxidation than lean men (43 ± 5% 31 ± 2%; p = 0.02). Plasma fatty‐acid oxidation determined from recovery of infused [0.15 μmol/kg fat‐free mass (FFM) per minute] [1‐13C]‐palmitate in breath CO2 was similar for obese and lean men (8.4 ± 1.1 and 29 ± 15 μmol/kg FFM per minute). Nonplasma fatty‐acid oxidation, presumably, from intramuscular sources, was 50% higher in obese men than in lean men (10.0 ± 0.6 versus 6.6 ± 0.8 μmol/kg FFM per minute; p < 0.05). Systemic glucose disposal was similar in lean and obese groups (33 ± 8 and 29 ± 15 μmol/kg FFM per minute). However, the estimated rate of glycogen‐oxidation was 50% lower in obese than in lean men (61 ± 12 versus 90 ± 6 μmol/kg FFM per minute; p < 0.05). Discussion: During moderate exercise, obese sedentary men have increased rates of fatty‐acid oxidation from nonplasma sources and reduced rates of CHO oxidation, particularly muscle glycogen, compared with lean sedentary men. 相似文献

Objective: To compare overweight and lean subjects with respect to thermogenesis and physiological insulation in response to mild cold and rewarming. Research Methods and Procedures: Ten overweight men (mean BMI, 29.2 ± 2.8 kg/m2) and 10 lean men (mean BMI, 21.1 ± 2.0 kg/m2) were exposed to cold air for 1 hour, followed by 1 hour of rewarming. Body composition was determined by hydrodensitometry and deuterium dilution. Heat production and body temperatures were measured continuously by indirect calorimetry and thermistors, respectively. Muscle activity was recorded using electromyography. Results: In both groups, heat production increased significantly during cooling (lean, p = 0.004; overweight, p = 0.006). The increase was larger in the lean group compared with the overweight group (p = 0.04). During rewarming, heat production returned to baseline in the overweight group and stayed higher compared with baseline in the lean group (p = 0.003). The difference in heat production between rewarming and baseline was larger in the lean (p = 0.01) than in the overweight subjects. Weighted body temperature of both groups decreased during cold exposure (lean, p = 0.002; overweight, p < 0.001) and did not return to baseline during rewarming. Discussion: Overweight subjects showed a blunted mild cold‐induced thermogenesis. The insulative cold response was not different among the groups. The energy‐efficient response of the overweight subjects can have consequences for energy balance in the long term. The results support the concept of a dynamic heat regulation model instead of temperature regulation around a fixed set point. 相似文献

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between fasting plasma concentrations of ghrelin and gastric emptying in obese individuals compared with lean subjects. Research Methods and Procedures: We included 20 obese patients (9 men and 11 women, BMI > 30 kg/m2) and 16 nonobese control subjects (7 men and 9 women, BMI ≤ 25 kg/m2). Gastric emptying of solids (egg sandwich labeled with radionuclide) was measured at 120 minutes with (99m)Tc‐single photon emission computed tomography imaging. Ghrelin and leptin were analyzed by radioimmunoassay and ELISA methods, respectively. Results: The gastric half‐emptying time was similar in obese men and women (67.8 ± 14.79 vs. 66.6 ± 13.56 minutes) but significantly shorter (p < 0.001) than in the control population (men: 88.09 ± 11.72 minutes; women: 97.25 ± 10.31 minutes). Ghrelin levels were significantly lower in obese subjects (131.37 ± 47.67 vs. 306.3 ± 45.52 pg/mL; p < 0.0001 in men and 162.13 ± 32.95 vs. 272.8 ± 47.77 pg/mL; p < 0.0001 in women). A negative correlation between gastric emptying and fasting ghrelin levels was observed only in lean subjects (y = ?0.2391x + 157.9; R2 = 0.95). Also, in the lean group, ghrelin was the only significant independent determinant of gastric emptying, explaining 98% of the variance (adjusted R2) in a multiple regression analysis. Discussion: This report shows that, in humans, gastric emptying is faster in obese subjects than in lean controls and that, whereas ghrelin is the best determinant of gastric kinetics in healthy controls, this action is lost in obesity. 相似文献

On entering a cold environment, people react by increasing insulation and energy expenditure (EE). However, large interindividual differences exist in the relative contribution of each mechanism. Short‐term studies revealed that obese subjects increase EE (i.e., adaptive thermogenesis) less than lean subjects, which might have implications for the predisposition to obesity. In this study, we validate the differences in adaptive thermogenesis between lean and obese upon midterm mild cold exposure. Therefore, 10 lean and 10 obese subjects were exposed for 48 h to mild cold (16 °C) in a respiration chamber. The preceding 36 h they stayed in the same chamber at a neutral temperature (22 °C) for the baseline measurements. EE, physical activity, skin temperature, and core temperature have been measured for the last 24 h of both parts. Mean daytime EE increased significantly in the lean subjects (P < 0.01), but not in the obese. Physical activity decreased significantly in the lean (P < 0.01) and the obese (P < 0.001) subjects. The change in EE was related to the change in physical activity in both groups (respectively R2 = 0.673, P < 0.01 and R2 = 0.454, P < 0.05). Upon mild cold exposure, lean subjects decreased proximal skin temperature less, but distal skin temperature more than obese. In conclusion, the interindividual differences in cold‐induced thermogenesis were related to changes in physical activity in both lean and obese, pointing at the existence of individual variation in physical activity to compensate for cold‐induced thermogenesis. Furthermore, although a large part of the lean subjects counteracted the cold by increasing EE, most obese subjects changed temperature distribution, and therefore, increased insulation. 相似文献

Endothelin is an important determinant of peripheral vascular tone, and increased endogenous endothelin activity contributes to peripheral vascular dysfunction in human obesity. The contributions of endothelin to the regulation of coronary vascular tone in health in humans have not been well studied. We hypothesized that the contribution of endothelin to the regulation of myocardial perfusion would be augmented in human obesity. Using [NH3]ammonia positron emission tomography (PET), we measured myocardial perfusion under resting and adenosine‐stimulated conditions on two separate days, with and without concurrent exposure to BQ123, an antagonist of type A endothelin receptors (1 µmol/min IV beginning 90 min before measurement). We studied 10 lean and 9 obese subjects without hypertension, hyperlipidemia, or diabetes mellitus. We observed a BQ123‐induced increase in resting myocardial perfusion of ~40%, not different between lean and obese subjects (BQ123‐induced increase in flow: lean 0.12 ± 0.20, obese 0.32 ± 0.51 ml/g/min, P = 0.02 BQ123 effect, P = 0.27 comparing response across groups). Although basal flow rates varied by region of the myocardium, the BQ123 effect was seen in all regions. BMI and cholesterol were significantly related to BQ123‐induced increases in basal tone in multivariable analysis. There was no baseline difference in the adenosine‐stimulated increase in blood flow between lean and obese subjects, and BQ123 failed to augment these responses in either group. These observations suggest that endothelin is an important contributor to the regulation of myocardial perfusion under resting conditions in healthy lean and obese humans, with increased contributions in proportion to increasing obesity. 相似文献

Excess adiposity is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play an important role in vascular repair. We tested the hypothesis that increased adiposity is associated with EPC dysfunction, characterized by diminished capacity to release angiogenic cytokines, increased apoptotic susceptibility, reduced cell migration, and shorter telomere length. A total of 67 middle‐aged and older adults (42–67 years) were studied: 25 normal weight (normal weight; BMI: 18.5–24.9 kg/m2) and 42 overweight/obese (overweight/obese; BMI: 25.0–34.9 kg/m2). Cells with phenotypic EPC characteristics were isolated from peripheral blood. EPC release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and granulocyte colony–stimulating factor (G‐CSF) was determined in the absence and presence of phytohemagglutinin (10 µg/ml). Intracellular active caspase‐3 and cytochrome c concentrations were determined by immunoassay. Migratory activity of EPCs in response to VEGF (2 ng/ml) and stromal cell–derived factor‐1α (SDF‐1α; 10 ng/ml) was determined by Boyden chamber. Telomere length was assessed by Southern hybridization. Phytohemagglutinin‐stimulated release of VEGF (90.6 ± 7.6 vs. 127.2 ± 11.6 pg/ml) and G‐CSF (896.1 ± 77.4 vs. 1,176.3 ± 126.3 pg/ml) was ~25% lower (P < 0.05) in EPCs from overweight/obese vs. normal weight subjects. Staurosporine induced a ~30% greater (P < 0.05) increase in active caspase‐3 in EPCs from overweight/obese (2.8 ± 0.2 ng/ml) compared with normal weight (2.2 ± 0.2) subjects. There were no significant differences in EPC migration to either VEGF or SDF‐1α. Telomere length did not differ between groups. These results indicate that increased adiposity adversely affects the ability of EPCs to release proangiogenic cytokines and resist apoptosis, potentially compromising their reparative potential. 相似文献
