Methods: In population study, we selected 40-69 years old patients with NAFLD, 77, and 102 healthy subjects as a control group. We detect the levels of serum PGC-1α, MDA and the activity of SOD of the two groups. In vitro study, L-02 cells were treated by 20 μg/ml oleic acid to induce the NAFLD cells model. The control group added ordinary 1640 culture medium. The model group cells were cultured in the medium containing 2.5, 5, 7.5mmol/l concentrations of metformin. Used RT-PCR analysis of PGC-1α mRNA, detected the level of triglycerides in cells, measured the content of MDA and the activity of SOD. Results: In population study, the level of MDA in the case group were increased obviously and the activity of SOD was decreased compared with the control group. There had no difference of the level of PGC-1α between the two groups. In vitro study, compared with the control groups, the level of triglyceride and the concentration of MDA in the model groups were increased and the activity of SOD as well as the expression of PGC-1α mRNA were decreased; When the final concentration of metformin is 7.5 mmol/l, the level of triglyceride and MDA were decreased as well as the activity of SOD and the expression of PGC-1α mRNA were increased compared with the model group. Conclusion: Metformin can adjust the expression of PGC-1α and the level of oxidative stress which can decrease the fat accumulation, Our results thus identify selective modulation of hepatic PGC-1α functions as a novel mechanism involved in the therapeutic action of metformin.","PeriodicalId":16452,"journal":{"name":"Journal of metabolic syndrome","volume":"1010 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88097329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This syndrome increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Hyperglycemia during coronary reperfusion is associated with a poor prognosis. Contrastingly, targeting correction of hyperglycemia in clinical trials has not improved clinical outcome or has even been detrimental. H2 O2 is produced under hyperglycemic conditions and under reperfusion. This study aims to provide a mechanistic approach evaluating the impact of high glucose on the endothelial nitric oxide pathway in a H2 O2 -rich environment. \u0000Methods and results: HUVECs (human umbilical vein endothelial cells) were exposed to high glucose (20 mM) for either 20 or 72 hours co-incubated with or without H2 O2 (400 µM) for 30 minutes as models of increased oxidative stress during acute and prolonged hyperglycemia, respectively. The presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in both mitochondria and cytoplasm was measured by fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). Phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) on threonine 495 (Thr495) and serine 1177 (Ser1177) was assessed by western blotting. Short-term (20 hours) high concentration of glucose alone increased ROS in mitochondria to 133.5% (p<0.05), whereas prolonged (72 hours) did not increase mitochondrial ROS. The increase in mitochondrial ROS could be attenuated by the anti-oxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC). Incubation with H2 O2 for 30 minutes resulted in an increase in Thr495 phosphorylation (to 425%, p<0.01) and a decrease in Ser1177 phosphorylation (to 50.6%, p<0.01). Preincubation for 20 hours with 10 and 20 mM glucose did not affect phosphorylation of Thr495 and Ser1177. Stimulating HUVECs that were pre-incubated with 20 mM glucose for 72 hours with H2 O2 increased Thr495 phosphorylation to 146.6% (p<0.05). PKC inhibition attenuated the H2 O2 -induced Thr495 phosphorylation in cells incubated with high glucose levels for 72 hours. \u0000Conclusion: Acute exposure to high glucose induces oxidative stress. H2 O2 leads to phosphorylation of eNOS at Thr495 and dephosphorylation of Ser1177. After prolonged exposure to high glucose levels, the addition of H2 O2 yields phosphorylation of Thr495 through the PKC pathway","PeriodicalId":16452,"journal":{"name":"Journal of metabolic syndrome","volume":"29 1","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79099548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Oxidative stress has been considered one of the mechanisms linking obesity to these pathologies. Our aim was to evaluate the oxidative stress status in obese Adults \u0000Methods: Our study focused on a sample of 187 healthy volunteers in the city of Constantine, divided according to their BMI into three groups: group A (BMI <25, normal nutritional status), group B (25 ≤ BMI <30, overweight) and group C (BMI ≥ 30, obesity). The status of oxidative stress was evaluated by determining the activities of erythrocyte antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidas (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), plasma concentrations of antioxidant vitamins (E,A) and lipid peroxidation marker , the malondialdehyde (MDA). \u0000Results: Vitamin E / Lipids ratio and vitamin A plasma concentration were significantly lower in obese subjects compared with those having normal BMI: 3.40 ± 1.16 mg / g vs 3.87 ± 1.16 mg / g; p <0.05 and 0.63 (0.46-0.76) mg/l vs 0.69 (0.57-0.86) mg/l, p <0.05 respectively. MDA plasma concentrations were significantly higher in obese versus overweight subjects and those having normal BMI: 11.4 (7.1 to 14.6) mg/l vs 8.6 (5.9 to 11.6) g/l, p <0.01 and 11.4 (7.1 to 14.6) mg/l vs 8.4 (5.9 to 12.3) mg/l, p <0.05 respectively. There was no significant difference between the MDA plasma concentration of overweight subjects and those having normal BMI. Erythrocyte SOD and Gpx activities of different classes of BMI were comparable. MDA was positively and significantly correlated with BMI (r = 0.149, p <0.05).

The aim was to estimate plasma apelin concentration in young patients (pts) with primary HTN and to assess the relationship between apelin and selected anthropometric parameters, serum lipids and carotid intima-media thickness (right and left cIMT). \u0000Methods: 70 pts (48 males, 22 females) aged 18-33 with newly diagnosed, untreated primary HTN were recruited.

Metabolic syndrome was defined as the presence of at least 3 out of 5 criteria according to harmonized definition. Using logistic regression analysis we evaluated the association between history characteristics and metabolic syndrome components (p<0.05 as significant). \u0000Results: 42 menopausal women were consecutively enrolled. Dominating characteristics were family history of hypertension (FH-HT) and diabetes mellitus (FH-DM), personal antecedents of spaniomenorrhea, pregnancyassociated urinary tract infection (UTI), premature delivery, pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIHT), gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), macrosomia, stillbirth and congenital malformations. Significant associations (OR; p) were FH-HT with abdominal obesity (6.2; 0.008) and hypertriglyceridemia (4.9; 0.018); FH-DM with abdominal obesity (55.2; 0.000), hypertriglyceridemia (12.2; 0.001) and low HDL (1.8; 0.02); spaniomenorrhea with obesity (14.8; 0.004), HBP (9.8; 0.018) and hypertriglyceridemia (12.9; 0.006). For obstetrical history the picture was: PIHT with abdominal obesity (24; 0.000) and hypertriglyceridemia (8.2; 0.008); GDM with hypertriglyceridemia (11; 0.012); premature delivery with obesity (4.3; 0.04) and HBP (13; 0.006); stillbirth with HBP (7.2; 0.048) and low HDL (12.1; 0.009); macrosomia with obesity (15.9; 0.000) and hypertriglyceridemia (6.9; 0.008). \u0000Conclusion: Apart from known medical risk factors, past spaniomenorrhea emerged as the main gynecological factor whereas premature delivery, gestational diabetes, PIHT, infant’s macrosomia, stillbirth and congenital malformations were obstetrical ones associated with components of MS.
