The Anti-Obesity Effect of Fish Oil in Diet-Induced Obese Mice Occurs via Both Decreased Food Intake and the Induction of Heat Production Genes in Brown but Not White Adipose Tissue.

Omega-3 (ω-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids in fish oil have been shown to prevent diet-induced obesity in lean mice and to promote heat production in adipose tissue. However, the effects of fish oil on obese animals remain unclear. This study investigated the effects of fish oil in obese mice.

Tracking Single Kinesin in Live Cells Using MINFLUX.

MINFLUX is a super-resolution fluorescence microscopy technique that enables single-molecule tracking in live cells at a single-nanometer spatial and sub-millisecond temporal resolution. This chapter describes a method for tracking fluorescently labeled human kinesin-1 in live cells using MINFLUX and analyzing kinesin stepping dynamics.

Relationship between the progression of diabetic polyneuropathy and impaired circadian blood pressure variability.

Aims/introduction: We evaluated the 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring data of patients to investigate the relationship between the progression of diabetic polyneuropathy and impaired circadian blood pressure variability.

Materials And Methods: This study included 154 patients with diabetes who were hospitalized for hyperglycemic control. Routine biochemical and hematological tests, ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, screening for diabetic complications, nerve conduction studies, and Holter electrocardiography were carried out on all patients.
