Intestinal microbiota changes are associated with the development of obesity. However, studies in humans have generated conflicting results due to high inter-individual heterogeneity terms diet, age, and hormonal factors, largely unexplored influence gender. In this work, we aimed identify differential gut signatures obesity, as a function gender body mass index (BMI). Differences bacterial community structure were analyzed by 16S sequencing 39 men 36 post-menopausal women, who had similar...

Gut microbiota, which acts collectively as a fully integrated organ in the host metabolism, can be shaped by long-term dietary interventions after specific diet.The aim was to study changes microbiota 1 year's consumption of Mediterranean diet (Med diet) or low-fat, high-complex carbohydrate (LFHCC an obese population.Participants were randomized receive Med (35% fat, 22% monounsaturated) and LFHCC (28% 12% monounsaturated).The conducted 20 patients (men) within Coronary Diet Intervention...

Saturated fatty acid (SFA) high-fat diets (HFDs) enhance interleukin (IL)-1β–mediated adipose inflammation and insulin resistance. However, the mechanisms by which different acids regulate IL-1β subsequent effects on tissue biology sensitivity in vivo remain elusive. We hypothesized that replacement of SFA for monounsaturated (MUFA) HFDs would reduce pro-IL-1β priming attenuate resistance via MUFA-driven AMPK activation. MUFA-HFD–fed mice displayed improved coincident with reduced priming,...

Scope Dysbiosis of gut microbiota is involved in metabolic syndrome (MetS) development, which has a different incidence between men (M) and women (W). The differences MetS patients are explored according to gender, whether consuming two healthy diets, Mediterranean (MED) low‐fat (LF), may, over time, differentially shape the dysbiosis gender evaluated. Materials Methods All from CORDIOPREV study whose feces samples were available similar number men, matched by main variables ( N = 246, 123...

We aimed to explore whether changes in circulating levels of miRNAs according type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) or prediabetes status could be used as biomarkers evaluate the risk developing disease. The study included 462 patients without T2DM at baseline from CORDIOPREV trial. After a median follow-up 60 months, 107 subjects developed T2DM, 30 prediabetes, 223 maintained and 78 remained disease-free. Plasma four related insulin signaling beta-cell function were measured by RT-PCR. analyzed...

Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed as type 2 diabetes biomarkers, and they may be a more sensitive way to predict development of the disease than currently used tools. Our aim was identify whether circulating miRNAs, added clinical biochemical markers, yielded better potential for predicting diabetes. The study included 462 non-diabetic patients at baseline in CORDIOPREV study. After median follow-up 60 months, 107 them developed Plasma levels 24 miRNAs were measured by...

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is currently a major global public health problem. Although disease remission possible, few biomarkers have been identified which can help us select the diet that best promotes remission. Our aim was to study potential of miRNAs as tool apply Mediterranean or low-fat in order achieve T2DM patients with coronary heart disease.

Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed as biomarkers for type 2 diabetes (T2D). Adipose tissue (AT), which dysfunction is widely associated with T2D development, has reported a major source of circulating miRNAs. However, the role dysfunctional AT in altered pattern miRNAs onset remains unexplored. Herein, we investigated relationship between T2D-associated and function, well preadipocytes adipocytes secreting cells candidate Among plasma related to CORonary Diet Intervention...

Genetic variation at the Circadian Locomotor Output Cycles Kaput (CLOCK) locus has been associated with lifestyle-related conditions such as obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS) and cardiovascular diseases. In fact, it suggested that disruption of circadian system may play a causal role in manifestations MetS. The aim this research was to find out whether habitual consumption low-fat diet, compared Mediterranean diet enriched olive oil, modulates associations between common CLOCK single...
