Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is an important risk factor for obesity-related metabolic disorders. Therefore, a reduction in VAT has become key goal obesity management. However, correlated with intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content, so it possible that IHTG, not VAT, better marker of disease. We determined the independent association IHTG and to function, by evaluating groups obese subjects, who differed content (high or normal) but matched on volume low) content. Stable isotope tracer...
An increased release of free fatty acids (FFAs) into plasma likely contributes to the metabolic complications associated with obesity. However, relationship between body fat and FFA metabolism is unclear because conflicting results from different studies. The goal our study was determine inter-relationships fat, sex, kinetics. We determined rate appearance (Ra) in plasma, by using stable isotopically labeled tracer techniques, during basal conditions 106 lean, overweight, obese, nondiabetic...
Smoking causes multiple organ dysfunction. The effect of smoking on skeletal muscle protein metabolism is unknown. We hypothesized that the rate synthesis depressed in smokers compared with non-smokers. studied eight (> or =20 cigarettes/day for > years) and non-smokers matched sex (4 men 4 women per group), age (65 +/- 3 63 yr, respectively; means SEM) body mass index (25.9 0.9 25.1 1.2 kg/m(2), respectively). Each subject underwent an intravenous infusion stable isotope-labeled leucine...
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with risk factors for cardiovascular disease, particularly increased plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations and insulin resistance. Fenofibrate extended release nicotinic acid (Niaspan) are used to treat hypertriglyceridemia can affect oxidation free concentrations, which influence intrahepatic (IHTG) content metabolic function.The objective of the study was determine effects fenofibrate therapy on IHTG factors. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN AND MAIN...
