conclusions we observed no significant differences between the two groups in lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, except for hdl-c. considering the importance of overweight and obese women’s health, studies with longer follow-up periods are recommended in this respect. results the differences in lipid and carbohydrate parameters were not significant between the two groups, except for hdl-c (adjus...

fasting induces short-term physiological adaptations which spare the body's remaining carbohydrate stores and mobilize lipid stores to provide a substitute fuel for many tissues and organs, especially skeletal muscle. rodent studies show that regular occurrence of fasting then refeeding, stimulates adaptations in muscle which make the animal better placed to withstand a further period of fastin...

a 6 week study was conducted to assess the effects of wood betony (wb), stachys lavandulifolia extract on growth performance, hematological and biochemical parameters of common carp, cyprinus carpio. different levels of the wb extract (0, 2, 4 and 8 % weight per weight, w/w, 0wb, 2wb, 4wb and 8wb) in the diet were used. the results showed that final weight and weight gain were significantly imp...

objective(s):the aim of this study was to evaluate, for the first time, whether the effects of low-dose adropin administration is effective in rats with hyperlipidemia. materials and methods: twenty one wistar albino female rats were randomly divided into 3 groups and fed with high-fat diet for 4 weeks to establish the hyperlipidemia model. meanwhile, adropin was administrated intraperitonealy ...

conjugated linoleic acids (cla) are natural constituents of meat and dairy products from ruminants, originating from bacterial biohydrogenation in the rumen. cla supplementation increases the health benefits of animal-derived foods. there are inconsistent reports of the effects of dietary cla on chicken’s performance; however, the majority of previous reports cite anti-lipogenic effects of cla....

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the context of lipid metabolism research in physical activity, lipolysis, lipolysis hormone regulation and the fate of lipolysis products in exercise, fatty acid transporters, some genes involved in lipid metabolism, effect of resistance activity on lipolysis, adaptations of adipose tissue due to physical activity, lipoproteins and apoproteins...

barley (hordeum vulgare l.) is a model plant, as genetic and physiological studies are concerned. abiotic stresses such as drought adversely affect the growth of plants. the objective of this experiment was to identify the responsive genes to osmotic stress, using macroarray (covering 13050 genes). rna was extracted from 5 barley genotypes in stress as well as in normal conditions at 3 times of...

the present study was conducted to test the effect of origanum majoranum extract (ome) of leaves on alterations induced in a model of type 2 diabetic rats. adult male wistar rats were fed high fat diet for 3 weeks and injected a single dose of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to induce type 2 diabetic rats. diabetic rats were given aqueous extract of ome in a dose of 20 mg/kg orally ...
