Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic changes in mitochondrial biogenesis and antioxidant enzymes during the spontaneous differentiation of human embryonic stem cells.

TL;DR: HESC differentiation was followed by dynamic changes in mitochondrial mass, ATP and ROS production, and antioxidant enzyme expressions, which led to a dramatic change in the expression of various antioxidant enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein Inhibits Interleukin-12 Production in Lipopolysaccharide-activated Mouse Macrophages via Direct Interactions between Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor-γ and Nuclear Factor-κB

TL;DR: OxLDL-mediated suppression of the IL-12 production from LPS-activated mouse macrophages may, at least in part, involve both inhibition of the NF-κB-DNA interactions and physical interactions between NF-σκB and PPAR-γ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of hypothalamic Foxo1 in the regulation of food intake and energy homeostasis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in normal mice, hypothalamic Foxo1 expression is reduced by the anorexigenic hormones insulin and leptin, establishing a new signaling pathway through which insulin andptin regulate food intake in hypothalamic neurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mitogenic and Antiapoptotic Actions of Ghrelin in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the direct effects of ghrelin on proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis in adipocytes may play a role in regulating fat cell number, which may be mediated via activation of the MAPK and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic Exposure to the Herbicide, Atrazine, Causes Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Insulin Resistance

TL;DR: It is suggested that long-term exposure to the herbicide ATZ might contribute to the development of insulin resistance and obesity, particularly where a high-fat diet is prevalent.
