Adipocyte differentiation is driven by the expression and activation of three transcription factor families: the differentially expressed CAAT/enhancer binding proteins (C/EBPs) alpha, beta, and delta; the helix-loop-helix adipocyte differentiation and det ...
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Abnormalities of fat in the mesentery including adipose tissue hypertrophy and fat wrapping have been long recognized on surgical specimens as characteristic features of Crohn's disease. However, the importance, origin, and significance ...
To better define the mechanism of action of the thiazolidinediones, we incubated freshly isolated human adipocytes with rosiglitazone and investigated the changes in mRNA expression of genes encoding key proteins of adipose tissue functions. Rosiglitazone ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma is one of the key actors of adipocyte differentiation. This study demonstrates 1) that PPAR-gamma mRNA expression is not altered in subcutaneous adipose tissue (n = 44) or in skeletal muscle (n = 19) ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma), a fatty acid-activated nuclear receptor, is implicated in adipocyte differentiation and insulin sensitisation. In view of the association of dietary fat intake and bowel disease, the expression ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor that regulates adipocyte differentiation. Variations in the PPARgamma gene may affect the function of the PPARgamma and, therefore, body adipocity. We investigated the frequ ...
The invention concerns a 5-aminolevulinic acid ester (I) soln. for producing a pharmaceutical prepn. useful for diagnosing and/or treating tissue and/or cell pathologies by local radiation exposure using radiation emitted by a light source energy followed, ...
Duodenal enterocytes adjust intestinal iron absorption to the body's state of iron repletion. Here we tested how iron supply from the blood modulates the RNA-binding activity of iron regulatory proteins (IRP-1 and IRP-2) in immature duodenal rat enterocyte ...
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor implicated in adipocyte differentiation and insulin sensitivity. We investigated whether PPARgamma expression is dependent on the activity of adipocyte differentiation and d ...
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) is a nuclear receptor that controls the expression of a large array of genes involved in adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage and insulin sensitization. PPARgamma is bound and activated b ...
