Genistein increases the thermogenic program of subcutaneous WAT and increases energy expenditure in mice
Lilia Noriega Lopez, Laura Alejandra Velazquez Villegas
White adipose tissue (WAT) can differentiate into beige adipose tissue by the browning process. Some polyphenols, including isoflavones, particularly genistein, are suggested to increase the expression of browning markers. There is evidence that consumptio ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC2019Instrument intercomparison in the pulsed neutron fieldsat the CERN HiRadMat facility
Nikolaos Charitonidis, Daniel Perrin
An intercomparison of the performances of active neutron detectors was carried out in pulsed neutron fields in the new HiRadMat facility at CERN. Five detectors were employed: four of them (two ionization chambers and two rem counters) are routinely employ ...
Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd2014In vivo imaging reveals selective PPAR activity in the skin of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor responsive element-luciferase reporter mice
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) have been revealed as key regulators of several skin disorders. This has led to a growing interest in the development of drugs targeting PPARs as therapeutics for skin diseases. To evaluate skin PPAR acti ...
2013Impact of environmental estrogens on fish considering the diversity of estrogen signaling
Research on endocrine disruption in fish has been dominated by studies on estrogen-active compounds which act as mimics of the natural estrogen, 17 beta-estradiol (E2), and generally exert their biological actions by binding to and activation of estrogen r ...

2013IL-13 induces expression of CD36 in human monocytes through PPARgamma activation
The class B scavenger receptor CD36 is a component of the pattern recognition receptors on monocytes that recognizes a variety of molecules. CD36 expression in monocytes depends on exposure to soluble mediators. We demonstrate here that CD36 expression is ...
2007Fermentation by gut microbiota cultured in a simulator of the human intestinal microbial ecosystem is improved by supplementing a soygerm powder
An in vitro model, designated the Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME), was used to study the effect of a soygerm powder rich in beta-glycosidic phytoestrogenic isoflavones on the fermentation pattern of the colon microbiota and to ...
2000Treatment of gastrointestinal disease with ppar modulators
Methods and compositions are provided for treating a host having a gastrointestinal (GI) disease by administering to the host a composition containing a pharmaceutically effective amount of a modulator of a Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor (PPAR) ...
1998Reduction of serum cholesterol by soy proteins: Clinical experience and potential molecular mechanisms
The major components of soybean flour (ie, proteins, fibres, and isoflavones) have been investigated as possibly responsible for the cholesterol-lowering effects of soy-based diets. The evidence for and against the involvement of each component is reviewed ...
1998Transcriptional control of triglyceride metabolism: fibrates and fatty acids change the expression of the LPL and apo C-III genes by activating the nuclear receptor PPAR
Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans
The development of atherosclerosis is often associated with altered concentrations of systemic lipoproteins, which are determined by the concentration and/or activity of three groups of different proteins, i.e. apolipoproteins (apo), enzymes, and receptors ...
