Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), a device that analyzes the current conduction differences between fat and water components is widely used for reasons include convenience of use, non-invasiveness, safety, low cost. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) allows assessment total body regional lean tissues bone mineral content (BMC). The objective this study was to compare composition assessments by BIA DXA before after 6-week herbal diet intervention program in 50 pre-menopausal women...
Chronic pain reduces life quality and is an important clinical problem associated with emotional cognitive dysfunction. Epigenetic regulation of DNA methylation involved in the induction abnormal behaviors pathological gene expression. We examined whether acupuncture can restore epigenetic changes caused by chronic pain, identified underlying mechanisms neuropathic mice. Acupuncture treatment for 6 months (3 days/week) improved mechanical/cold allodynia emotional/cognitive dysfunction left...
Nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ), a 17 amino acid peptide, is the endogenous ligand of ORL1/nociceptin-opioid-peptide (NOP) receptor. N/OFQ appears to regulate variety physiologic functions including stimulating feeding behavior. Recently, new class thienospiro-piperidine-based NOP antagonists was described. One these molecules, LY2940094 has been identified as potent and selective antagonist that exhibited activity in central nervous system. Herein, we examined effects on behavioral models....
Obesity is a serious global health challenge, closely associated with numerous chronic conditions including type 2 diabetes. Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bunge (AA) known as Jimo has been used to address pathogenic heat such wasting-thirst in Korean Medicine. Timosaponin A3 (TA3), natural compound extracted from AA, demonstrated potential therapeutic effects various disease models. However, its on diabetes and obesity remain largely unexplored. We investigated the anti-obesity anti-diabetic...

Obesity characterized by low- grade inflammation. IL-18 been suggested as adipogenic cytokine that associated with excess adiposity. The purpose this study to evaluate the relationship between gene polymorphisms (−137 G/C −607 C/A) obesity. Methods: All 680 subjects were genotyped for promoters (at positions −137 using a polymerase...
The aim of the study was to investigate in premenopausal women whether relationship between percentage body fat (PBF) and mass index (BMI; kg/m2) differs Korean Asians (Ko-As) living Seoul, South Korea, Caucasians (Ca) New York City. Healthy (50 Ko-As; 38 Ca), ages 22-50 yr, were studied. Weight, height, PBF by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measured. Total data collected using GE-Lunar systems (Prodigy-Korea DPXL-New York), all scan analyses performed one technician York. Similar soft...
