We have recently identified several adipokines as oversecreted by omental adipose tissue (AT) of obese subjects: two chemokines (growth‐related oncogene factor‐α (GRO‐α), macrophage inflammatory protein‐1β (MIP‐1β)), a tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases‐1 (TIMP‐1), an interleukin‐7 (IL‐7) and a megakaryocytic growth‐factor (thrombopoietin (TPO)). These adipokines are involved in insulin resistance and atherosclerosis. The objectives of this study were to determine whether the circulating levels of these adipokines were increased in obesity and to identify the responsible factors. A cross‐sectional study including 32 lean (BMI (kg/m2) <25), 15 overweight (BMI: 25–29.9), 11 obese (BMI: 30–39.9), and 17 severely obese (BMI >40) age‐matched women was carried out. Serum adipokine levels, insulin sensitivity, and substrate oxidation were measured by ELISA, euglycemic–hyperinsulinemic clamp, and indirect calorimetry, respectively. Circulating levels of GRO‐α, TPO, and TIMP‐1 were higher in obese and/or severely obese women than in lean ones (+30, 55, and 20%, respectively). Serum levels of these adipokines positively correlated with insulinemia or glycemia, and negatively with insulin sensitivity. TIMP‐1 also positively correlated with blood pressure, and TPO with triglyceride levels. Multiple regression analysis showed that fat mass per se was an independent determinant of GRO‐α, TPO, and TIMP‐1 levels, suggesting that hypertrophied adipocytes and recruited macrophages in expanded AT mainly contribute to this hyperadipokinemia. Insulinemia, glycemia and resistance of glucose oxidation to insulin were additional predictors for TPO. Circulating GRO‐α, TPO, and TIMP‐1 levels are increased in obesity. This may be partially due to augmented adiposity per se and to hyperinsulinemia/insulin resistance. These high systemic levels may in turn worsen/promote insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease. 相似文献

Objective: Different facts suggest that the insulin growth factor (IGF)/ insulin growth factor‐binding protein (IGFBP) system may be regulated by factors other than growth hormone. It has been proposed that, in healthy subjects, free IGF‐I plays a role in glucose metabolism. The role of free IGF‐I in glucose homeostasis in insulin resistance is poorly understood. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of acute changes in plasma glucose and insulin levels on free IGF‐I and IGFBP‐1 in obese and non‐obese subjects. Research Methods and Procedures: Nineteen lean and 24 obese subjects were investigated. A frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test was performed. Free IGF‐I and IGFBP‐1 were determined at 0, 19, 22, 50, 100, and 180 minutes. Results: Basal free IGF‐I levels tended to be higher and IGFBP‐1 lower in obese than in lean subjects. IGFBP‐1 levels inversely correlated with basal insulin concentration. To determine the effects of insulin on the availability of free IGF‐I and IGFBP‐1, changes in their plasma concentrations were measured during a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. After insulin administration, a significant suppression of free IGF‐I at 22% was observed in lean subjects. In contrast, plasma‐free IGF‐I levels remained essentially unchanged in the obese group. The differences between both groups were statistically significant at 100 minutes (p < 0.01) and 180 minutes (p < 0.05). Serum IGFBP‐1 was suppressed to a similar extent in both groups. Discussion: These data suggest that the concentrations of free IGF‐I and IGFBP‐1 are differentially regulated by obesity. Obesity‐related insulin resistance leads to unsuppressed free IGF‐I levels. 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

Ceramides (Cer) are implicated in obesity‐associated skeletal muscle and perhaps adipocyte insulin resistance. We examined whether the sphingolipid content of human subcutaneous adipose tissue and plasma varies by obesity and sex as well as the relationship between ceramide content and metabolic indices. Abdominal subcutaneous adipose biopsies were performed on 12 lean adults (males = 6), 12 obese adults (males = 6) for measurement of sphingolipid content and activity of the main ceramide metabolism enzymes. Blood was sampled for glucose, insulin (to calculate homeostasis model assessment‐estimated insulin resistance (HOMAIR)) adiponectin, and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) concentrations. Compared to lean controls, total ceramide content (pg/adipocyte) was increased by 31% (P < 0.05) and 34% (P < 0.05) in obese females and males, respectively. In adipocytes from obese adults sphingosine, sphinganine, sphingosine‐1‐phosphate, C14‐Cer, C16‐Cer, and C24‐Cer were all increased. C18:1‐Cer was increased in obese males and C24:1‐Cer in obese females. For women only, there was a negative correlation between C16‐Cer ceramide and plasma adiponectin (r = ?0.77, P = 0.003) and a positive correlation between total ceramide content and HOMAIR (r = 0.74, P = 0.006). For men only there were significant (at least P < 0.05), positive correlations between adipocyte Cer‐containing saturated fatty acid and plasma IL‐6 concentration. We conclude that the sexual dimorphism in adipose tissue behavior in humans extends to adipose tissue sphingolipid content its association with adiponectin, IL‐6 and insulin resistance. 相似文献

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the association among adiposity, insulin resistance, and inflammatory markers [high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP), interleukin (IL)‐6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α] and adiponectin and to study the effects of exercise training on adiposity, insulin resistance, and inflammatory markers among obese male Korean adolescents. Research Methods and Procedures: Twenty‐six obese and 14 lean age‐matched male adolescents were studied. We divided the obese subjects into two groups: obese exercise group (N = 14) and obese control group (N = 12). The obese exercise group underwent 6 weeks of jump rope exercise training (40 min/d, 5 d/wk). Adiposity, insulin resistance, lipid profile, hs‐CRP, IL‐6, TNF‐α, and adiponectin were measured before and after the completion of exercise training. Results: The current study demonstrated higher insulin resistance, total cholesterol, LDL‐C levels, triglyceride, and inflammatory markers and lower adiponectin and HDL‐C in obese Korean male adolescents. Six weeks of increased physical activity improved body composition, insulin sensitivity, and adiponectin levels in obese Korean male adolescents without changes in TNF‐α, IL‐6, and hs‐CRP. Discussion: Obese Korean male adolescents showed reduced adiponectin levels and increased inflammatory cytokines. Six weeks of jump rope exercise improved triglyceride and insulin sensitivity and increased adiponectin levels. 相似文献

Objective: To study the effect of weight loss in response to a lifestyle modification program on the circulating levels of adipose tissue derived cytokines (adipokines) in obese individuals with insulin resistance. Research Methods and Procedures: Twenty‐four insulin‐resistant obese subjects with varying degrees of glucose tolerance completed a 6‐month program consisting of combined hypocaloric diet and moderate physical activity. Adipokines [leptin, adiponectin, resistin, tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6)] and highly sensitive C‐reactive protein were measured before and after the intervention. Insulin sensitivity index was evaluated by the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. Results: Participants had a 6.9 ± 0.1 kg average weight loss, with a significant improvement in sensitivity index and reduction in plasma leptin (27.8 ± 3 vs. 23.6 ± 3 ng/mL, p = 0.01) and IL‐6 (2.75 ± 1.51 vs. 2.3 ± 0.91 pg/mL, p = 0.012). TNF‐α levels tended to decrease (2.3 ± 0.2 vs. 1.9 ± 0.1 pg/mL, p = 0.059). Adiponectin increased significantly only among diabetic subjects. The reductions in leptin were correlated with the decreases in BMI (r = 0.464, p < 0.05) and with changes in highly sensitive C‐reactive protein (r = 0.466, p < 0.05). Discussion: Weight reduction in obese individuals with insulin resistance was associated with a significant decrease in leptin and IL‐6 and a tendency toward a decrease in circulating TNF‐α, whereas adiponectin was increased only in diabetic subjects. Further studies are needed to elucidate the relationship between changes of adipokines and the health benefits of weight loss. 相似文献

Objective: Offspring of diabetic or hypertensive patients are insulin resistant at a prediabetic/prehypertensive stage. We tested the hypothesis that insulin action may be impaired in the offspring of obese nondiabetic parents. Research Methods and Procedures: Twenty‐one lean offspring of nonobese subjects [(OL) 22 ± 3 years of age] were matched to 23 lean offspring of obese subjects (OOb) by gender distribution, age, BMI, and waist circumference. Anthropometry, oral glucose tolerance, in vivo insulin sensitivity [by a euglycemic insulin clamp (6 pmol/min per kilogramFFM; where FFM represents fat‐free mass)], and thermogenesis (by indirect calorimetry) were measured in each subject. The study subjects were from a population of 267 nuclear families (one offspring and both his/her parents) in which there was statistically significant (χ2 = 30.2, p = 0.001) concordance of BMI between parents and offspring. Results: In comparing OOb with OL, no statistically significant difference or trend toward a difference was detected in fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations, glucose and insulin responses to oral glucose, insulin sensitivity [metabolism value = 45 ± 12 (OOb) vs. 47 ± 17 μmol/min per kilogramFFM (OL)], insulin‐induced inhibition of protein and lipid oxidation, stimulation of glucose oxidation and nonoxidative glucose disposal, respiratory quotient, resting energy expenditure, and glucose‐induced thermogenesis. Discussion: The metabolic similarity between lean offspring of obese parents and those of nonobese parents suggests that insulin resistance and its correlates are not co‐inherited with the predisposition to develop obesity. 相似文献

Macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue (AT‐MP) is thought to induce insulin resistance and diabetes in obesity. Here, we investigated the effect of the antiobesity drug SR141716 (a CB1 antagonist) on macrophage‐mediated inhibition of insulin signaling in adipocytes. THP1 macrophages (THP1) were stimulated in vitro with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and SR141716 or vehicle. The resulting conditioned medium (CM) was analyzed and incubated on human adipocytes. CM from LPS‐stimulated THP1 inhibited insulin‐induced AKT phosphorylation in adipocytes, in contrast to CM from nonactivated THP1. Moreover, it contained higher concentrations of tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNFα) and lower levels of the anti‐inflammatory cytokine IL‐10. SR141716 reduced TNFα production and increased IL‐10 secretion, resulting in a rescue of insulin signaling in adipocytes. To confirm these findings in vivo, AT‐MP CM from cafeteria diet‐fed or Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats that had received SR141716 for 3 weeks were isolated, analyzed, and incubated with adipocytes. Cafeteria diet induced macrophage‐mediated inhibition of insulin signaling in adipocytes. Interestingly, SR141716 rescued insulin‐induced glucose uptake in adipocytes. Finally, AT‐MP CM from obese ZDF rats inhibited insulin‐stimulated glucose uptake in adipocytes in contrast to AT‐MP CM from lean ZDF rats. After treatment with SR141716, AT‐MP CM rescued insulin‐induced glucose uptake in adipocytes. In summary, our data indicate that CB1 receptor antagonism in macrophages modified their cytokine production and improved the insulin responsiveness of adipocytes that had been incubated with macrophage CM. Thus, SR141716 ameliorated adipose tissue insulin resistance by direct action on AT‐MP demonstrating a novel peripheral mode of action of CB1 antagonism. 相似文献

Objective: Obese non-diabetic patients are characterized by an extra-hepatic insulin resistance. Whether obese patients also have decreased hepatic insulin sensitivity remains controversial. Research Methods and Procedures: To estimate their hepatic insulin sensitivity, we measured the rate of exogenous insulin infusion required to maintain mildly elevated glycemia in obese patients with type 2 diabetes, obese non-diabetic patients, and lean control subjects during constant infusions of somatostatin and physiological low-glucagon replacement infusions. To account for differences in insulin concentrations among the three groups of subjects, an additional protocol was also performed in healthy lean subjects with higher insulin infusion rates and exogenous dextrose infusion. Results: The insulin infusion rate required to maintain glycemia at 8.5 mM was increased 4-fold in obese patients with type 2 diabetes and 1.5-fold in obese non-diabetic patients. The net endogenous glucose production (measured with 6,6-2H2-glucose) and total glucose output (measured with 2-2H1-glucose) were ∼30% lower in the patients than in the lean subjects. Net endogenous glucose production and total glucose output were both markedly increased in both groups of obese patients compared with lean control subjects during hyperinsulinemia. Discussion: Our data indicate that both obese non-diabetic and obese type 2 diabetic patients have a blunted suppressive action of insulin on glucose production, indicating hepatic and renal insulin resistance. 相似文献

Objectives: To evaluate the effects of administration of Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 on metabolic and immune alterations in obese mice. Design and Methods: Adult male wild‐type C57BL‐6 mice were fed a standard diet or high‐fat diet (HFD), supplemented or not with B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 for 7 weeks. The assessments included biochemical and immunological parameters, insulin resistance, glucose tolerance, histology of liver, white‐adipose and intestinal tissues, immunocompetent cell functions, and microbiota‐related features. Results: B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 reduced serum cholesterol, triglyceride, and glucose levels and decreased insulin resistance and improved glucose tolerance in obese mice. This strain reduced serum levels of leptin, interleukin (IL)‐6 and monocyte chemotactic protein‐1, while increased those of IL‐4 in HFD‐fed mice. B. pseudocatenulatum CECT7765 reduced liver steatosis and the number of larger adipocytes and number of fat micelles in enterocytes of obese mice. The strain also improved the function of macrophages and dendritic cells in relation to phagocytosis, cytokine production, and induction of T‐lymphocyte proliferation. The strain administration increased bifidobacteria and reduced enterobacteria and the inflammatory properties of the gut content in HFD‐fed mice. Conclusion: B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 was shown to ameliorate both metabolic and immunological dysfunctions related to obesity in HFD‐fed mice. 相似文献

Ceramide is involved in development of insulin resistance. However, there are no data on ceramide metabolism in human adipose tissue. The aim of our study was to examine sphingolipid metabolism in fat tissue from obese nondiabetic (n = 11), obese diabetic (n = 11), and lean nondiabetic (n = 8) subjects. The content of ceramide (Cer), dihydroceramide (dhCer), sphingosine (SPH), sphinganine (SPA), sphingosine‐1‐phosphate (S1P; pmol/mg of protein), the expression (mRNA) and activity of key enzymes responsible for Cer metabolism: serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT), neutral and acidic sphingomyelinase (nSMase and aSMase, respectively), and neutral and acidic ceramidase (nCDase and aCDase, respectively) were examined in human adipose tissue. The contents of SPA and Cer were significantly lower whereas the content of dhCer was higher in both obese groups than the respective values in the lean subjects. The expression of examined enzymes was elevated in both obese groups. The SPT and CDases activity increased whereas aSMase activity deceased in both obese groups. We have found correlation between adipose tissue Cer content and plasma adiponectin concentration (r = 0.69, P < 0.001) and negative correlation between total Cer content and HOMA‐IR index (homeostasis model of insulin resistance) (r = ?0.67, P < 0.001). We have found that both obesity and diabetes affected pathways of sphingolipid metabolism in the adipose tissue. J. Cell. Physiol. 227: 550–557, 2012. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The ketone bodies (KBs) D‐3‐hydroxybutyrate (D‐3HB) and acetoacetate (AcAc) play a role in starvation and have been associated with insulin resistance. The dose–response relationship between insulin and KBs was demonstrated to be shifted to the right in type 2 diabetes patients. However, KB levels have also been reported to be decreased in obesity. We investigated the metabolic adaptation to fasting with respect to glucose and KB metabolism in lean and obese men without type 2 diabetes using stable glucose and D‐3HB isotopes in a two‐step pancreatic clamp after 38 h of fasting. We found that D‐3HB fluxes in the basal state were higher in lean compared to obese men: 15.2 (10.7–27.1) vs. 7.0 (3.5–15.1) µmol/kg lean body mass (LBM)·min, respectively, P < 0.01. No differences were found in KB fluxes between lean and obese volunteers during the pancreatic clamp (step 1: 6.9 (1.8–12.0) vs. 7.4 (4.2–17.8) µmol/kg LBM·min, respectively; and step 2: 2.9 (0–7.2) vs. 3.4 (0.85–18.7) µmol/kg LBM·min, respectively), despite similar plasma insulin levels. Meanwhile, peripheral glucose uptake was higher in lean compared to obese men (step 1: 15.2 (12.3–25.6) vs. 14.7 (11.9–22.7) µmol/kg LBM·min, respectively, P ≤ 0.05; and step 2: 12.5 (7.0–17.3) vs. 10.8 (5.2–15.0) µmol/kg LBM·min, respectively, P ≤ 0.01). These data show that obese subjects who display insulin resistance on insulin‐mediated peripheral glucose uptake have the same sensitivity for the insulin‐mediated suppression of ketogenesis. This implies differential insulin sensitivity of intermediary metabolism in obesity. 相似文献

An imbalance between pro‐ and anti‐inflammatory cytokine productions in adipose tissue is thought to contribute to chronic, systemic, low‐grade inflammation and consequently to an increased risk of cardiovascular complications in obese and type 2 diabetic patients. Nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA), whose serum levels are elevated in such patients, have been shown to interfere with cytokine production in vitro. In order to evaluate the effects of elevated NEFA levels on cytokine production in adipose tissue in vivo we used an 18‐gauge open‐flow microperfusion (OFM) catheter to induce local inflammation in the subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) of healthy volunteers and to sample interstitial fluid (IF) specifically from the inflamed tissue. In two crossover studies, nine subjects received either an intravenous lipid‐heparin infusion to elevate circulating NEFA levels or saline over a period of 28 h. The former increased the circulating levels of triglycerides (TGs), NEFA, glucose, and insulin over the study period. NEFA effects on locally induced inflammation were estimated by measuring the levels of a panel adipokines in the OFM probe effluent. Interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), IL‐8, tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) and monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) levels increased during the study period but were not affected by lipid‐heparin infusion. In contrast, the level of IL‐10, an anti‐inflammatory cytokine, was significantly reduced during the final hour of lipid‐heparin infusion (saline: 449.2 ± 105.9 vs. lipid‐heparin: 65.4 ± 15.4 pg/ml; P = 0.02). These data provide the first in vivo evidence that elevated NEFA can modulate cytokine production by adipose tissue. 相似文献

A number of clinical and biochemical studies demonstrate that obesity and insulin resistance are associated with increases in oxidative stress and inflammation. Paradoxically, insulin sensitivity can be enhanced by oxidative inactivation of cysteine residues of phosphatases, and inflammation can be reduced by S‐glutathionylation with formation of protein‐glutathione mixed disulfides (PSSG). Although oxidation of protein‐bound thiols (PSH) is increased in multiple diseases, it is not known whether there are changes in PSH oxidation species in obesity.
Objective:
In this work, the hypothesis that obesity is associated with decreased levels of proteins containing oxidized protein thiols was tested.Design and Methods:
The tissue levels of protein sulfenic acids (PSOH) and PSSG in liver, visceral adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle derived from glucose intolerant, obese‐prone Sprague‐Dawley rats were examined.Results:
The data in this study indicate that decreases in PSSG content occurred in liver (44%) and adipose (26%) but not skeletal muscle in obese rats that were fed a 45% fat‐calorie diet versus lean rats that were fed a 10% fat‐calorie diet. PSOH content did not change in the tissue between the two groups. The activity of the enzyme glutaredoxin (GLRX) responsible for reversal of PSSG formation did not change in muscle and liver between the two groups. However, levels of GLRX1 were elevated 70% in the adipose tissue of the obese, 45% fat calorie‐fed rats.Conclusion:
These are the first data to link changes in S‐glutathionylation and GLRX1 to adipose tissue in the obese and demonstrate that redox changes in thiol status occur in adipose tissue as a result of obesity. 相似文献16.

Objective: We investigated the acute responses of plasma adiponectin levels to a test meal in lean and obese subjects. Research Methods and Procedures: We studied 13 lean and 11 obese subjects after a 10‐hour overnight fast. Glucose, insulin, and adiponectin concentrations were measured at baseline and 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after a fixed breakfast. Results: At baseline, fasting adiponectin concentrations were lower in the obese group vs. the lean group [mean (95% confidence interval): 2.9 (2.1 to 4.1) μg/mL vs. 8.6 (6.5 to 11.3) μg/mL], but rose 4‐fold postprandially in the obese group, reaching a peak at 60 minutes [baseline: 2.9 (2.1 to 4.1) μg/mL vs. 60 minutes: 12.1 (8.5 to 17.4) μg/mL; p< 0.0001] and remaining elevated for the remainder of the study. There were no postprandial changes in plasma adiponectin concentrations in lean subjects. Discussion: This increase of adiponectin concentrations in obese individuals might have important beneficial effects on postprandial glucose and lipid metabolism and might be viewed as a mechanism for maintaining normal glucose tolerance in those who are obese and insulin resistant. 相似文献

Objective: The metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) has been shown to be altered in severe insulin resistance that is present in obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats. We examined the effects and mechanism of action of AA on basal and glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic islets isolated from obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats and their homozygous lean (Fa/Fa) littermates. Research Methods and Procedures: Islets were isolated from 10‐ to 12‐week‐old rats and incubated for 45 minutes in glucose concentrations ranging from 3.3 to 16.7 mM with or without inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase or lipoxygenase pathways. Medium insulin concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay, and islet production of the 12‐lipoxygenase metabolite, 12‐hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12‐HETE), was measured by enzyme immunoassay. Results: In islets from lean animals, AA stimulated insulin secretion at submaximally stimulatory glucose levels (< 11.1 mM) but not at 16.7 mM glucose. In contrast, in islets derived from obese rats, AA potentiated insulin secretion at all glucose concentrations. AA‐induced insulin secretion was augmented in islets from obese compared with lean rats at high concentrations of AA in the presence of 3.3 mM glucose. Furthermore, the inhibitor of 12‐lipoxygenase, esculetin (0.5 μM), inhibited AA‐stimulated insulin secretion in islets from obese but not lean rats. Finally, the islet production of the 12‐HETE was markedly enhanced in islets from obese rats, both in response to 16.7 mM glucose and to AA. Discussion: The insulin secretory response to AA is augmented in islets from obese Zucker rats by a mechanism related to enhanced activity of the 12‐lipoxygenase pathway. Therefore, augmented action of AA may be a mechanism underlying the adaptation of insulin secretion to the increased demand caused by insulin resistance in these animals. 相似文献

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

Objectives: Obesity and a physically inactive lifestyle are associated with increased risk of developing insulin resistance. The hypothesis that obesity is associated with increased adipose tissue (AT) interleukin (IL)‐18 mRNA expression and that AT IL‐18 mRNA expression is related to insulin resistance was tested. Furthermore, we speculated that acute exercise and exercise training would regulate AT IL‐18 mRNA expression. Research Methods and Procedures: Non‐obese subjects with BMI < 30 kg/m2 (women: n = 18; men; n = 11) and obese subjects with BMI >30 kg/m2 (women: n = 6; men: n = 7) participated in the study. Blood samples and abdominal subcutaneous AT biopsies were obtained at rest, immediately after an acute exercise bout, and at 2 hours or 10 hours of recovery. After 8 weeks of exercise training of the obese group, sampling was repeated 48 hours after the last training session. Results: AT IL‐18 mRNA content and plasma IL‐18 concentration were higher (p < 0.05) in the obese group than in the non‐obese group. AT IL‐18 mRNA content and plasma IL‐18 concentration was positively correlated (p < 0.05) with insulin resistance. While acute exercise did not affect IL‐18 mRNA expression at the studied time‐points, exercise training reduced AT IL‐18 mRNA content by 20% in both sexes. Discussion: Because obesity and insulin resistance were associated with elevated AT IL‐18 mRNA and plasma IL‐18 levels, the training‐induced lowering of AT IL‐18 mRNA content may contribute to the beneficial effects of regular physical activity with improved insulin sensitivity. 相似文献
