Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary habits and their relations to insulin resistance and postprandial lipemia in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis
Giovanni Musso,Roberto Gambino,Franco De Michieli,Maurizio Cassader,Mario Rizzetto,Marilena Durazzo,Emanuela Fagà,Barbara Silli,Gianfranco Pagano +8 more
TL;DR: Dietary habits may promote steatohepatitis directly by modulating hepatic triglyceride accumulation and antioxidant activity as well as indirectly by affecting insulin sensitivity and postprandial triglyceride metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in Weight and Nutritional Habits in Adults with Obesity during the "Lockdown" Period Caused by the COVID-19 Virus Emergency.
Marianna Pellegrini,Valentina Ponzo,Rosalba Rosato,Elena Scumaci,Ilaria Goitre,Andrea Benso,Sara Belcastro,Chiara Crespi,Franco De Michieli,Ezio Ghigo,Fabio Broglio,Simona Bo +11 more
TL;DR: The adverse mental burden linked to the COVID-19 pandemic was greatly associated with increased weight gain, and individuals with obesity significantly gained weight 1 month after the beginning of the quarantine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adipokines in NASH : Postprandial lipid metabolism as a link between adiponectin and liver disease
Giovanni Musso,Roberto Gambino,Marilena Durazzo,Giampaolo Biroli,Monica Carello,Einanuela Faga,Giovanni Pacini,Franco De Michieli,Laura Rabbione,A. Premoli,Maurizio Cassader,Gianfranco Pagano +11 more
TL;DR: Hypoadiponectinemia is present before overt diabetes and obesity appear and correlates with the severity of liver histology in NASH and may have important pathogenetic and therapeutic implications in both liver and metabolic disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypoadiponectinemia Predicts the Severity of Hepatic Fibrosis and Pancreatic Beta-Cell Dysfunction in Nondiabetic Nonobese Patients with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis
Giovanni Musso,Roberto Gambino,Giampaolo Biroli,Monica Carello,Emanuela Fagà,Giovanni Pacini,Franco De Michieli,Maurizio Cassader,Marilena Durazzo,Mario Rizzetto,Gianfranco Pagano +10 more
TL;DR: Hypoadiponectinemia is a feature of NASH and may have a pathogenetic role in β-cell dysfunction and in hepatic necroinflammation and fibrosis, independently of insulin resistance, visceral fat accumulation, TNF-α axis activity, and dietary habits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adiponectin gene polymorphisms modulate acute adiponectin response to dietary fat: Possible pathogenetic role in NASH.
Giovanni Musso,Roberto Gambino,Franco De Michieli,Marilena Durazzo,Gianfranco Pagano,Maurizio Cassader +5 more
TL;DR: The at‐risk adiponectin SNPs 45TT and 276GT are significantly more prevalent in NAFLD than in the general population; they are associated with severity of liver disease, with blunted postprandial adiponECTin response, and with an atherogenic postpr andial lipoprotein profile in NASH independently of fasting adipokine and lipid levels.
