Metabolic signaling functions of ER-mitochondria contact sites: role in metabolic diseases.
Beyond the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and the determination of cell fate, ER-mitochondria contact sites, defined as mitochondria-associated membranes (MAM), start to emerge as an important signaling hub that integrates nutrient and hormonal stimuli and adapts cellular metabolism. Here, we summarize the established structural and functional features of MAM and mainly focus on the latest...
متن کاملStudy of pulmonary functions in patients with metabolic syndrome
Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and impaired lung functions have been associated with an increased risk for coronary heart disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the pulmonary functions in patients with MetS. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 200 subjects with MetS in the study group and 100 subjects without MetS in the control group. Participants were examined...
متن کاملHexarelin Signaling to PPARγ in Metabolic Diseases
Investigating the metabolic functions of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) has been extremely rewarding over the past years. Uncovering the biologic roles of PPARgamma and its mechanism of action has greatly advanced our understanding of the transcriptional control of lipid and glucose metabolism, and compounds such as thiazolidinediones which dir...
متن کاملRole of oxidative stress in pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome
The metabolic syndrome (MS) recognized as a major cause of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, has become one of the major public health challenges worldwide. The pathogenesis of the metabolic syndrome is multiple and still poorly understood. No single factor has yet been identified as an underlying causal factor. There is a growing belief, however, that obesity, specially visceral obe...
متن کاملExpanding role of delta-like 4 mediated notch signaling in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
Cardiometabolic disease, a global health threat, has been linked to chronic inflammation, in which activated macrophages play a key role. Macrophages are highly heterogeneous hematopoietic cells found in nearly every tissue in the body. Various stimuli recruit monocytes into the cardiovascular system and metabolic organs, where they differentiate to macrophages, and activate these pro-inflammat...
