Resistin is a newly discovered adipocyte hormone. It is related to resistin-like molecules α, β
and γ in structure and function. Resistin is produced by white and brown adipose tissues but …

The individual contributions of, and potential interactions between, the renin-angiotensin
system (RAS) and the humoral adrenergic stress response to blood pressure regulation …

Postprandial release of the incretin glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has been suggested to
act as an endogenous satiety factor in humans. In rats, however, the evidence for this is …

This study compared the effects of a moderate carbohydrate–high fiber (MC–HF) food and a
low carbohydrate–low fiber (LC–LF) food on glycemic control in cats with diabetes mellitus …

OBJECTIVE: This study determined the effects of adding monosodium glutamate (MSG) to a
standard diet and a fiber-enriched diet on glucose metabolism, lipid profile, and oxidative …

Background Metabolic syndrome is characterized by insulin resistance, which is closely
related to GLUT4 content in insulin-sensitive tissues. Thus, we evaluated the GLUT4 …

Resistin, a new adipocytokine, is expressed in human, rat and mouse adipose tissue. Its
putative role as a mediator of insulin resistance is controversial. We hypothesized that …

Background Palmitoleic acid was previously shown to improve glucose homeostasis by
reducing hepatic glucose production and by enhancing insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in …

The present study aimed to investigate insulin sensitivity and GLUT4 expression protein in
pinealectomized rats, as well as to determining the effects of melatonin and calorie …

Crohn's disease (CD) is characterized by the expansion of mesenteric fat, also known as"
creeping fat." We explored the plasticity and immune properties of adipose-derived stem …
