(2010)Background: Heart failure (HF) is characterized, among other features, by the development of alterations in myocardial energy metabolism, involving a decrease in glucose utilization and increased free fatty acid uptake by ...
-
(2007)The likelihood of coexistence in the same patient of myasthenia gravis and myotonic dystrophy has been estimated at I in 40 million. The case of a patient in whom both diagnoses were made is reported here. A 13-year-old ...

(WILEY-LISS, DIV JOHN WILEY & SONS INC, 2006-11)Controlled generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may contribute to physiological intracellular signaling events. We determined ROS generation in primary cultures of rat skeletal muscle after field stimulation (4001-ms ...
-
(AAAS, 2016)Although vertebrates cannot synthesize the natural disaccharide trehalose, exogenous administration of trehalose to mammalian cells may be beneficial for protein misfolding disorders. In this issue, DeBosch et al. show ...
-
(2016)The aim of this study was to investigate the roles of the Acyl co-enzyme A oxidase (ACOX), carnitine acyl transferase I (CAT-1) and activating protein 1 (AP-1) in the reversal of hepatic steatosis with dietary change and ...
-
(2012)Omega-3 (n-3) long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA) are associated with several physiological functions, suggesting that their administration may prevent non transmissible chronic diseases. Therefore, we ...
-
(WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim, 2014)Scope: Dietary n-3 long-chain PUFAs (n-3 LCPUFAs) supplementation was studied in an HFD-induced (HFD is high-fat diet) steatosis and inflammation in relation to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR- ) ...

-
(MDPI, 2021)In recent years, the beneficial effect of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) intake on human health has been widely accepted in the field of immunonutrition. Today, we find a diversity of supplements based on n-3 ...
-
(2011)Dietary supplementation with the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to rats preconditions the liver against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, with reduction ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2021)N 6 -methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification described in eukaryotic mRNA and several viral RNA including human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV). Here, we evaluated the impact of m6A writers, ...
-
(Frontiers Media, 2020)Chronic ethanol intake results in brain oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, which have been postulated to perpetuate alcohol intake and to induce alcohol relapse. The present study assessed the mechanisms involved in ...
-
(MDPI, 2020)Dysferlinopathy is an autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy resulting from mutations in the dysferlin gene. Absence of dysferlin in the sarcolemma and progressive muscle wasting are hallmarks of this disease. Signs of ...

(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2017)© 2016 The Authors. The Journal of Physiology © 2016 The Physiological SocietyKey points: Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is associated with vascular dysfunction, oxidative stress and signs of endothelial epigenetic ...
-
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2020)Aims: Pre- and/or early postnatal ethanol exposure (prenatal alcohol exposure [PAE]) impairs synaptic plasticity as well as memory formation, but the mechanisms underlying these effects remain unclear. Both long-term ...
-
(1986)N-Methyl-dl-aspartate, l-glutamate, kainate and dl-homocysteate were found to increase the initial rate and the maximal uptake of 45Ca into the non-inulin space of rat brain cortex slices incubated in vitro. The ...
-
(Informa Healthcare, 2015)Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of preeclampsia on the level of lipid peroxidation, activity and expression of both plasma membrane Ca2+- and Na+, K+-ATPases in syncytiotrophoblast. Methods: The ...
