Background Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)-uncoupling links obesity-associated insulin resistance and type-II diabetes to the increased incidence of cardiovascular disease. Studies have indicated that increased arginase is involved in eNOS-uncoupling through competing with the substrate L-arginine. Given that arginase-II (Arg-II) exerts some of its biological functions through crosstalk...

Objectifs: Étudier les effets d’ultrasons diffus appliqués dans la région abdominale combinés au travail musculaire sur plaque vibrante chez des femmes obèses. Cette méthode a pour but d’accélérer la mobilisation de graisse du tissu adipeux abdominal.Méthodes: 40 femmes obèses sédentaires, âgées entre 18 et 55 ans, avec un IMC ≥ 30 kg/m2 et ≤ 40 kg/m2 ont été randomisées...

The present study investigates whether excessive fat accumulation and hyperinsulinaemia during catch-up growth on high-fat diets are altered by n-6 and n-3 PUFA derived from oils rich in either linoleic acid (LA), α-linolenic acid (ALA), arachidonic acid (AA) or DHA. It has been shown that, compared with food-restricted rats refed a high-fat (lard) diet low in PUFA, those...

Catch-up growth early in life (after fetal, neonatal or infantile growth retardation) is a major risk factor for later obesity, type-2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. These risks are generally interpreted alongside teleological arguments that environmental exposures which hinder growth early in life lead to programming of ‘thrifty mechanisms’ that are adaptive during the period of...
