An intragenic polymorphism (1359 G/A) of the cannabinoid receptor 1 (CNR1) gene was reported as a common polymorphism in Caucasian populations (rs1049353). Intervention studies with this polymorphism have yield contradictories results. We decide to investigate the role of polymorphism (G1359A) of (CNR1) gene on metabolic parameters and weight loss secondary to a high monounsaturated fat and high polyunsaturated fat hypocaloric diets in obese subjects. A population of 258 obese subjects was analyzed in a randomized trial. A nutritional evaluation was performed at the beginning and at the end of a 3-month period in which subjects received 1 of 2 diets (diet M: high monounsaturated fat diet vs diet P: high polyunsaturated fat diet). One hundred and sixty five patients (63.9%) had the genotype G1359G and 93 (36.1%) patients (A allele carriers) had G1359A (78 patients,30.3%) or A1359A (15 patients,5.8%) genotypes. In subjects with both genotypes, body mass index, weight, fat mass, waist circumference and systolic blood pressures decreased with both diets. With the diet-type M and in both genotype groups, biochemical parameters remained unchanged. After the diet type P and in subjects with both genotypes, glucose, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, insulin and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) levels decreased. In G1359G genotype subjects after both diets, leptin levels decreased. The finding of this study is the association of the A allele with a lack of improvement on leptin levels. Subjects with both genotypes and after a high polyunsaturated fat hypocaloric diet showed a significant improvement of LDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, HOMA-IR and insulin levels.  相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: There are few studies addressing the effect of weight loss on circulating levels of adipocytokines. The aim of our study was to determine whether different diets would have different weight loss effects and to examine the changes in adipocytokine levels. METHODS: A population of 90 obesity non-diabetic outpatients was analyzed in a prospective way. The patients were randomly allocated to two groups: (a) diet I (low-fat diet), and (b) diet II (low-carbohydrate diet). At baseline and after 3 months on the diet, adipocytokines were evaluated. RESULTS: 43 patients were randomized to group I and 47 patients to diet group II. No differences were detected between weight loss in either group (3.3 +/- 0.51 vs. 4.4 +/- 0.6 kg; n.s.). In group I, a significant decrease in leptin levels was found. In group II, leptin and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels also decreased. The decrease in leptin levels was lower with diet I than II (16.4 vs. 22.8%; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The serum leptin concentration decreased due to the 3-month intervention with low-fat and low-carbohydrate diets, without changes in other adipocytokines. The decrease in leptin and CRP levels were higher with a low-carbohydrate diet than a low-fat diet.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo assess whether shortening of the corrected QT (QTc) interval is most closely associated with changes in weight, insulin resistance, or free fatty acids (FFAs) (or some combination of these factors).MethodsWe randomized 75 severely obese subjects without diabetes to either a low-carbohydrate or a conventional low-fat weight-loss diet for 6 months. We measured QTc, insulin sensitivity, body mass index, and FFAs at baseline and at 6 months. Analysis was performed to determine whether improvement in weight, in insulin resistance, or in FFAs has the greatest effect on reducing the QTc interval.Results“Completers” of both the low-carbohydrate diet (N = 25) and the low-fat diet (N = 22) had a decrease in weight, but the weight loss was greater in the low-carbohydrate group. A statistically significant decrease in QTc from baseline was observed only in the low-carbohydrate group. QTc in the low-carbohydrate group correlated with improvement in insulin resistance, but this finding was not significant after correction for the greater weight loss. FFAs or weight loss was not correlated with QTc in either dietary group.ConclusionLow-carbohydrate dieting is associated with a greater decrease in the QTc interval in comparison with low-fat dieting. Improvements in insulin resistance seem to have a relatively weak mechanistic role, and a decrease in FFAs has no apparent role in the reduction of the QTc interval.

Alpha- and beta-cells dysfunction is implicated in the development of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We aimed to evaluate whether alpha- and beta-cell dysfunction may precede prediabetes (PreDM) and T2DM development. Furthermore, we explored the role of two healthy diets (Mediterranean and low-fat diets) modulating these processes. We included 462 patients from the CORDIOPREV study without T2DM at baseline, of which 272 were PreDM. During follow-up, 107 patients developed T2DM (T2DM-incident group), 30 developed PreDM (PreDM-incident group), 86 regressed to normoglycemia (PreDM-regression group) and 29 patients remained without PreDM or T2DM criteria (control group), according to the American Diabetes Association diagnosis criteria. We measured glucose, insulin, glucagon and GLP-1 plasma levels in the OGTT performed at baseline and after 2 years of follow-up. Patients were randomized to consume two healthy diets, a Mediterranean (>35%) and a low-fat (<30%). At baseline we already observed higher levels of glucagon and glucagon/insulin (G/I) ratio in the T2DM-incident group compared with PreDM-incident and control groups. T2DM Risk Assessment by COX analysis using G/I ratio at 30 min after an OGTT was able to assess the T2DM risk with an HR of 2.514. The two dietary models differentially influenced the PreDM regression. Specifically, the consumption of Mediterranean diet was associated with a decrease in G/I ratio (P=.034), whereas the low-fat diet reduced insulin levels (P=.002). Our results suggest that alpha-cell dysfunction precedes the T2DM development. This process seems to be independent of diet consumed. However the PreDM regression might be differentially modulated by diets.  相似文献

Background

Recent evidence suggests a crucial role of the endocannabinoid system, including the cannabinoid 1 receptor (CNR1), in intestinal inflammation. We therefore investigated the influence of the CNR1 1359 G/A (p.Thr453Thr; rs1049353) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) on disease susceptibility and phenotype in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn''s disease (CD).

Methods

Genomic DNA from 579 phenotypically well-characterized individuals was analyzed for the CNR1 1359 G/A SNP. Amongst these were 166 patients with UC, 216 patients with CD, and 197 healthy controls.

Results

Compared to healthy controls, subjects A/A homozygous for the CNR1 1359 G/A SNP had a reduced risk to develop UC (p = 0.01, OR 0.30, 95% CI 0.12–0.78). The polymorphism did not modulate CD susceptibility, but carriers of the minor A allele had a lower body mass index than G/G wildtype carriers (p = 0.0005). In addition, homozygous carriers of the G allele were more likely to develop CD before 40 years of age (p = 5.9×10−7) than carriers of the A allele.

Conclusion

The CNR1 p.Thr453Thr polymorphism appears to modulate UC susceptibility and the CD phenotype. The endocannabinoid system may influence the manifestation of inflammatory bowel diseases, suggesting endocannabinoids as potential target for future therapies.  相似文献

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) plays an important and not yet fully understood role in hypothalamic and peripheral regulation of food intake, obesity, and metabolism. Two frequent single nucleotide polymorphisms (snp) have been identified in members of the ECS: the 1359 G/A variant in the cannabinoid receptor 1 ( CB1) and the P129T polymorphism in fatty acid amide hydrolase ( FAAH), a key degradation enzyme of endocannabinoids. -While for the 1359 G/A variant an association has been shown only with psychiatric diseases such as drug-abusing schizophrenia, the P129T polymorphism has recently been proved to be correlated to a higher body mass index (BMI) in a group of black and white Americans. However, no knowledge exists as to whether these variants affect the outcome of a low fat diet in obese subjects. Therefore, we genotyped a group of 451 obese and dyslipidaemic participants and observed the biometric and metabolic outcome of a 6 week low fat diet. While no significance was seen for the 1359 G/A variant, carriers of the P129T mutation in FAAH had a significantly greater decrease in triglycerides and total cholesterol as compared to wild type. The reason for our findings remains to be elucidated, however, a hepatic downregulation of endocannabinoid tone may contribute to the observed outcome in studied subjects.  相似文献

Little is known about whether cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) genetic variation may modify the effect of weight-loss diets varying in fat content on changes in lipid levels. We analyzed the interaction between the CETP variant rs3764261 and dietary interventions on changes in lipid levels among 732 overweight/obese adults from a 2 year randomized weight-loss trial [Preventing Overweight Using Novel Dietary Strategies (POUNDS LOST)], and replicated the findings in 171 overweight/obese adults from an independent 2 year weight-loss trial [Dietary Intervention Randomized Controlled Trial (DIRECT)]. In the POUNDS LOST, participants with the CETP rs3764261 CC genotype on the high-fat diet had larger increases in HDL cholesterol (P = 0.001) and decreases in triglycerides (P = 0.007) than those on the low-fat diet at 6 months, while no significant difference between these two diets was observed among participants carrying other genotypes. The gene-diet interactions on changes in HDL-cholesterol and tri­glyc­erides were replicated in the DIRECT (pooled P for interaction ≤ 0.01). Similar results on trajectory of changes in HDL cholesterol and triglycerides over the 2 year intervention were observed in both trials. Our study provides replicable evidence that individuals with the CETP rs3764261 CC genotype might derive greater effects on raising HDL cholesterol and lowering triglycerides by choosing a low-carbohydrate/high-fat weight-loss diet instead of a low-fat diet.  相似文献

BackgroundZinc nanoparticles are documented to be harmful to fish because their accumulation in fish bring about many irreversible changes in their health. Nigella sativa and its oil have been endorsed in aquaculture to improve fish health.MethodsTwo hundred seventy experimental fish (113 ± 5 g body weight) were divided into 6 groups G1–6; control fish fed a diet without any treatment (G1), 0.3% of NSO (G2), 0.5% of NSO (G3), ZnO NPs (40 mg/kg diet) (G4), 0.3% of NSO and ZnO NPs (40 mg/kg diet) (G5), 0.5% of NSO and ZnO NPs (40 mg/kg diet) (G6), the trial lasted for six weeks.ResultsGrowth performance was enhanced in fish received diets containing NSO, final weight (FW), weight gain (WG), daily weight gain (DWG), and relative growth rate (RGR) were significantly increased with lower food conversion ratios (FCR) compared to the control. The hepatic glutathione peroxidase (GPx), catalase (CAT), and metallothionein (MT) were increased in response to ZnO NPs stress and only 0.5% NSO supplementation could ameliorate such increment. The immune-related genes [interleukin1-beta (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-beta (TNF-β), transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-β2) and C-type lysozyme] as well as growth-related gene [insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)] in liver showed an upregulation in fish fed with NSO diets. Administration of ZnO NPs lowered the resistance of Oreochromis niloticus against bacterial infection with Aeromonas hydrophila and NSO could enhance the immunity in the highest tested concentration (0.5%) (G6).ConclusionsThe obtained results implied that NSO could enhance the oxidative and immune status of O. niloticus which could compensate ZnO NPs stress as well as experimental infection of a virulent strain of A. hydrophila. Our results revealed that NSO might increase fish growth and immunity only at a high dose (0.5%).  相似文献

Low-fat diets have been shown to increase plasma concentrations of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a preferential lipoprotein carrier of oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs) in plasma, as well as small dense LDL particles. We sought to determine whether increases in plasma Lp(a) induced by a low-fat high-carbohydrate (LFHC) diet are related to changes in OxPL and LDL subclasses. We studied 63 healthy subjects after 4 weeks of consuming, in random order, a high-fat low-carbohydrate (HFLC) diet and a LFHC diet. Plasma concentrations of Lp(a) (P < 0.01), OxPL/apolipoprotein (apo)B (P < 0.005), and OxPL-apo(a) (P < 0.05) were significantly higher on the LFHC diet compared with the HFLC diet whereas LDL peak particle size was significantly smaller (P < 0.0001). Diet-induced changes in Lp(a) were strongly correlated with changes in OxPL/apoB (P < 0.0001). The increases in plasma Lp(a) levels after the LFHC diet were also correlated with decreases in medium LDL particles (P < 0.01) and increases in very small LDL particles (P < 0.05). These results demonstrate that induction of increased levels of Lp(a) by an LFHC diet is associated with increases in OxPLs and with changes in LDL subclass distribution that may reflect altered metabolism of Lp(a) particles.  相似文献

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Insulin resistance increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, and the risk of cardiovascular disease increases further once diabetes has developed. As insulin resistance is a precursor to diabetes, it is critically important to identify cost-effective means, such as dietary changes, by which to reduce insulin resistance. The purpose of this review is to evaluate recent findings concerning dietary composition and insulin resistance, with particular focus on low-fat diets compared with the currently popular low-carbohydrate diets. RECENT FINDINGS: Recent findings indicate little support for the value of low-carbohydrate diets as therapies for insulin resistance. In contrast, the limited data available suggest that the higher fat content of typical low-carbohydrate diets may exacerbate insulin resistance in the long term. Preliminary data indicate that proteins from different sources may have differing effects on insulin resistance. Preliminary data also suggest the potential value of whole grains, fruits and vegetables in therapeutic diets to reduce insulin resistance. SUMMARY: Current evidence supports the inclusion of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and lean sources of animal proteins including low-fat dairy products in dietary therapies for insulin resistance. Those who wish to follow a low-carbohydrate diet should be encouraged to follow a new menu low in fat, and with most of the protein derived from plant sources.  相似文献

A 12-week long feeding experiment was initiated to evaluate the effect of dietary supplementation of red algae, Gracilaria arcuata, on the growth performance, feed utilization and body composition of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758). The fish were fed with an algae-free control diet (C) and three experimental diets which replaced conventional fish meal with varying levels of dried G. arcuata (20%, 40% and 60%, represented as G20, G40 and G60, respectively). The growth parameters of final weight (FW), weight gain (WG), percentage of weight gain (WG%), daily growth rate (DGR) and specific growth rate (SGR) were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) at all levels of algae incorporation compared to the control diet. Moreover, the negative impact of Gracilaria meal on the growth performance of Nile tilapia increased as the proportion of algae in the diet increased, with fish on diet G20 exhibiting a significantly higher growth performance than the fish on either of the G40 and G60 diets. On the other hand, the feed utilization parameters feed conversion ratio (FCR) and protein efficiency ratio (PER) did not show significant differences between the fish in the control group and those on diet G20, although poorer FCR and PER outcomes were achieved in the case of fish on diet G60. The content of moisture, protein and ash in muscle and carcass increased as the proportion of Gracilaria meal in the diets increased, but the reverse was true for lipid level. These results indicate that incorporation of less than 20% red algae, Gracilaria arcuata, could be feasible in the diet of Nile tilapia and further studies are recommended to optimize the level of algae to improve growth performance.  相似文献

Background

In the clinic setting both fasting levels of glucose and the area under the curve (AUC) of glucose, by determination of HbA1c levels, are used for risk assessments, in type 2 diabetes (NIDDM). However little is known about postprandial levels, and hence AUC, regarding other traditional risk factors such as insulin and blood-lipids and how this is affected by different diets.

Objective

To study postprandial effects of three diets, during a single day, in NIDDM.

Methods

A low-fat diet (45–56 energy-% from carbohydrates), and a low-carbohydrate diet (16–24 energy-% from carbohydrates) was compared with a Mediterranean-style diet (black coffee for breakfast and the same total-caloric intake as the other two diets for lunch with red wine, 32–35 energy−% from carbohydrates) in a randomized cross-over design. Total-caloric intake/test-day at the clinic from food was 1025–1080 kCal in men and 905–984 kCal in women. The test meals were consumed at a diabetes ward under supervision.

Results

Twenty-one participants were recruited and 19 completed the studies. The low-carbohydrate diet induced lower insulin and glucose excursions compared with the low-fat diet (p<0.0005 for both AUC). The insulin-response following the single Mediterranean-style lunch-meal was more pronounced than during the low-fat diet lunch (insulin increase-ratio of the low-fat diet: 4.35±2.2, of Mediterranean-style diet: 8.12±5.2, p = 0.001) while postprandial glucose levels were similar. The increase-ratio of insulin correlated with the elevation of the incretin glucose-dependent insulinotropic-polypeptide following the Mediterranean-style diet lunch (Spearman, r = 0.64, p = 0.003).

Conclusions

The large Mediterranean-style lunch-meal induced similar postprandial glucose-elevations as the low-fat meal despite almost double amount of calories due to a pronounced insulin-increase. This suggests that accumulation of caloric intake from breakfast and lunch to a single large Mediterranean style lunch-meal in NIDDM might be advantageous from a metabolic perspective.

BackgroundClostridium difficile is a major identifiable and treatable cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Poor nutritional status contributes to mortality through weakened host defenses against various pathogens. The primary goal of this study was to assess the contribution of a reduced protein diet to the outcomes of C. difficile infection in a murine model.MethodsC57BL/6 mice were fed a traditional house chow or a defined diet with either 20% protein or 2% protein and infected with C. difficile strain VPI10463. Animals were monitored for disease severity, clostridial shedding and fecal toxin levels. Select intestinal microbiota were measured in stool and C. difficile growth and toxin production were quantified ex vivo in intestinal contents from untreated or antibiotic-treated mice fed with the different diets.ResultsC. difficile infected mice fed with defined diets, particularly (and unexpectedly) with protein deficient diet, had increased survival, decreased weight loss, and decreased overall disease severity. C. difficile shedding and toxin in the stool of the traditional diet group was increased compared with either defined diet 1 day post infection. Mice fed with traditional diet had an increased intestinal Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio following antibiotic exposure compared with either a 2% or 20% protein defined nutrient diet. Ex vivo inoculation of cecal contents from antibiotic-treated mice showed decreased toxin production and C. difficile growth in both defined diets compared with a traditional diet.ConclusionsLow protein diets, and defined nutrient diets in general, were found to be protective against CDI in mice. Associated diet-induced alterations in intestinal microbiota may influence colonization resistance and clostridial toxin production in a defined nutrient diet compared to a traditional diet, leading to increased survival. However, mechanisms which led to survival differences between 2% and 20% protein defined nutrient diets need to be further elucidated.  相似文献

IntroductionThe 385 C/A polymorphism of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) has recently been demonstrated to be associated with overweight and obesity. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between missense polymorphism (cDNA 385 C->A) of the FAAH gene and anthropometric parameters, cardiovascular risk factors and adipocytokines in morbidly obese patients.Material and methodsA sample of 66 morbidly obese patients was analyzed. In all patients, weight, blood pressure, fasting glycemia, lipoprotein(a), C-reactive protein, insulin, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglyceride and adipocytokine levels, as well as the genotype of the C358A polymorphism of FAAH, were determined.ResultsThe mean age was 48.0(16.1) years and the mean body mass index was 44.4 (4.1). There were 17 males (25.8%) and 49 females (74.2%). Forty-five patients (8 males/37 females) (68.2%) were G358G (wild genotype) and 21 patients (4 males/17 females) were G358A (31.8%) (mutant group). Biochemical, anthropometrical and adipocytokine levels showed no statistically significant differences between the two genotypes.ConclusionIn patients with morbid obesity, the C358A polymorphism of FAAH was not associated with anthropometric parameters, biochemical markers or adipocytokine levels.  相似文献

ObjectiveEvidence is sparse and contradictory regarding the association between low-carbohydrate diet score and type 2 diabetes risk, and no prospective study examined the association among Asians, who consume greater amount of carbohydrate. We prospectively investigated the association of low-carbohydrate diet score with type 2 diabetes risk.MethodsParticipants were 27,799 men and 36,875 women aged 45–75 years who participated in the second survey of the Japan Public Health Center-Based Prospective Study and who had no history of diabetes. Dietary intake was ascertained by using a validated food-frequency questionnaire, and low-carbohydrate diet score was calculated from total carbohydrate, fat, and protein intake. The scores for high animal protein and fat or for high plant protein and fat were also calculated. Odds ratios of self-reported, physician-diagnosed type 2 diabetes over 5-year were estimated by using logistic regression.ResultsDuring the 5-year period, 1191 new cases of type 2 diabetes were self-reported. Low-carbohydrate diet score for high total protein and fat was significantly associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes in women (P for trend <0.001); the multivariable-adjusted odds ratio of type 2 diabetes for the highest quintile of the score were 0.63 (95% confidence interval 0.46–0.84), compared with those for the lowest quintile. Additional adjustment for dietary glycemic load attenuated the association (odds ratio 0.75, 95% confidence interval 0.45–1.25). When the score separated for animal and for plant protein and fat, the score for high animal protein and fat was inversely associated with type 2 diabetes in women, whereas the score for high plant protein and fat was not associated in both men and women.DiscussionLow-carbohydrate diet was associated with decreased risk of type 2 diabetes in Japanese women and this association may be partly attributable to high intake of white rice. The association for animal-based and plant-based low-carbohydrate diet warrants further investigation.  相似文献

PurposeDiets rich in fat and energy are associated with metabolic syndrome (MS). Increased body iron stores have been recognized as a feature of MS. High-fat diets (HFs), excess iron loading and MS are closely associated, but the mechanism linking them has not been clearly defined. We investigated the interaction between dietary fat and dietary Fe in the context of glucose and lipid metabolism in the body.MethodsC57BL6/J mice were divided into four groups and fed the modified AIN-93G low-fat diet (LF) and HF with adequate or excess Fe for 7 weeks. The Fe contents were increased by adding carbonyl iron (2% of diet weight) (LF+Fe and HF+Fe).ResultsHigh iron levels increased blood glucose levels but decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. The HF group showed increases in plasma levels of glucose and insulin and insulin resistance. HF+Fe mice showed greater changes. Representative indices of iron status, such hepatic and plasma Fe levels, were not altered further by the HF. However, both the HF and excess iron loading changed the hepatic expression of hepcidin and ferroportin. The LF+Fe, HF and HF+Fe groups showed greater hepatic fat accumulation compared with the LF group. These changes were paralleled by alterations in the levels of enzymes related to hepatic gluconeogenesis and lipid synthesis, which could be due to increases in mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress.ConclusionsHigh-fat diets and iron overload are associated with insulin resistance, modified hepatic lipid and iron metabolism and increased mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress.  相似文献

Leptin may favorably respond to fat mass (FM) losses induced by a low-carbohydrate (LC) diet, although this is unclear. We examined serum leptin concentrations in women in midlife undergoing different dietary approaches to body weight (BW) loss. Women followed either a LC, high-protein (LCHP; n = 13) or high-carbohydrate, low-fat (HCLF; n = 12) diet for 12 weeks. Changes in anthropometric and soft-tissue mass measurements and leptin concentrations were assessed. Women in both diet groups had reductions in BW, BMI, fat-free soft-tissue mass, FM, body fat percentage, and central abdominal fat (CAF) (P < 0.001 for all variables) over the 12-week intervention. These changes were not significantly different between diet groups. Serum leptin concentrations decreased by 41.8% (P < 0.001) in the LCHP group and by 44.3% (P < 0.001) in the HCLF group from baseline to week 12, with no significant difference between groups. The association of CAF (r = 0.73) and FM (r = 0.83) change with leptin change was strong in the HCLF group. Leptin change did not relate to change in any variable in the LCHP group. Both LCHP and HCLF diets favorably lower FM, CAF, and leptin in women, suggesting that beneficial changes in leptin can be similarly achieved through different dietary approaches to BW loss.  相似文献

The impact of a low-fat diet and a high-MUFA diet on apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), apoA-II, and VLDL-apoB-100 metabolism in conditions of unrestricted (ad libitum) energy intake was compared in 65 men randomly assigned to one of two predefined experimental diets. A subsample of 18 men participated in the kinetic study. Before and after the 6-7 week dietary intervention, kinetic subjects received a primed-constant infusion of [5,5,5-2H3]L-leucine for 12 h under feeding conditions. ApoA-I production rate (PR; -31.5%; P <0.001) and fractional catabolic rate (FCR; -24.3%; P <0.05) were significantly decreased after the low-fat diet. These changes in apoA-I PR and FCR with the low-fat diet were also significantly different from those observed with the high-MUFA diet (P <0.01 and P <0.05, respectively). ApoA-II FCR was significantly increased in the high-MUFA group only. No significant within- or between-diet difference was found in VLDL-apoB-100 PR or FCR. These results emphasize the differential impact of the low-fat diet and high-MUFA diet on HDL metabolism.  相似文献

High multivitamin gestational diets (HV, 10-fold AIN-93G levels) increase body weight (BW) and food intake (FI) in rat offspring weaned to a recommended multivitamin (RV), but not to a HV diet. We hypothesized that high vitamin A (HA) alone, similar to HV, in post-weaning diets would prevent these effects of the HV maternal diet consistent with gene expression in FI and reward pathways. Male offspring from dams fed HV diets were weaned to a high vitamin A (HA, 10-fold AIN-93G levels), HV or RV diet for 29 weeks. BW, FI, expression of genes involved in regulation of FI and reward and global and gene-specific DNA methylation of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) in the hypothalamus were measured. Both HV and HA diets slowed post-weaning weight gain and modified gene expression in offspring compared to offspring fed an RV post-weaning diet. Hypothalamic POMC expression in HA offspring was not different from either HV or RV, and dopamine receptor 1 was 30% (P<.05) higher in HA vs. HV, but not different from RV group. Hippocampal expression of serotonin receptor 1A (40%, P<.01), dopamine receptor 2 (40%, P<.05) and dopamine receptor 5 (70%, P<.0001) was greater in HA vs. RV fed pups and is 40% (P<.01), 50% (P<.05) and 40% (P<.0001) in HA vs. HV pups, respectively. POMC DNA methylation was lower in HA vs. RV offspring (P<.05). We conclude that high vitamin A in post-weaning diets reduces post-weaning weight gain and FI and modifies gene expression in FI and reward pathways.  相似文献

ObjectivesSirtuin 1 is a human protein involved in gene silencing and in inducing the deacetylation of proteins involved in the metabolic and adaptive response mechanisms. Polymorphisms in the SIRT1 gene have been studied with respect to aging. This study aims to determine the allelic and genotypic frequencies of the rs7895833 A/G polymorphism in the SIRT1 gene, and to identify the association between this polymorphism and the co-morbidities prevalent in the elderly population.Material and methodsA total of 216 patients were evaluated in an outpatient clinic in Central Brazil. The individuals underwent validated tests for cognitive impairment and falls risk, serum biochemistry analysis, as well as polymer chain reaction (PCR) with confronting two-pair primers for polymorphism genotyping.Resultsrs7895833 polymorphism in SIRT1 gene was observed in these patients as follows: AA (56/216), AG (138/216), and GG (22/216). The frequency of allele A was 0.58, and that of allele G was 0.42. In the multivariate analysis of the exploratory variables, glucose, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, systemic arterial hypertension, dyslipidaemia, and depression, which were associated in the univariate analysis with the polymorphism rs7895833, only dyslipidaemia showed a statistically significant difference in a greater number of individuals with this polymorphism.ConclusionThe variant allele G of the SIRT1 gene polymorphism was found in 42% of these Brazilian geriatric patients, and was associated with dyslipidaemia. Further studies should be performed to confirm this result and to elucidate the role of SIRT1 in lipid metabolism.  相似文献
