The aim of this study was to determine the effects of exercise at different intensities on 24-h energy expenditure (EE) and substrate oxidation. Sixteen adults (8 men and 8 women) were studied on three occasions [sedentary day (Con), a low-intensity exercise day (LI; 400 kcal at 40% of maximal oxygen consumption) and a high-intensity exercise day (HI; 400 kcal at 70% of maximal oxygen consumption)] by using whole room indirect calorimetry. Both 24-h EE and carbohydrate oxidation were significantly elevated on the exercise days (Con < LI = HI), but 24-h fat oxidation was not different across conditions. Muscle enzymatic profile was not consistently related to 24-h fat or carbohydrate oxidation. With further analysis, it was found that, compared with men, women sustained slightly higher rates of 24-h fat oxidation (mg x kg FFM(-1) x min(-1)) and had a muscle enzymatic profile favoring fat oxidation. It is concluded that exercise intensity has no effect on 24-h EE or nutrient oxidation. Additionally, it appears that women may sustain slightly greater 24-h fat oxidation rates during waking and active periods of the day.

Introduction: The reasonable and efficient utilization of agricultural by-products as animal feed has the capacity to not only mitigate the scarcity of conventional feedstuff but also alleviate the environmental load. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of feeding citrus pomace (CP) fermented with combined probiotics on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality and antioxidant capacity in yellow-feathered broilers.

Methods: A cohort of 540 female yellow-feathered broilers (Qingyuan partridge chicken, 90-day-old) were randomly divided into three groups and, respectively, fed the basal diet (Control), diet containing 10% unfermented CP (UFCP) and diet containing 10% fermented CP (FCP).

Background: Piperine, a secondary metabolite, affects the antihyperlipidemic effect of Ezetimibe (EZ). Hyperlipidemia is one of the independent risk factors for cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis. Antihyperlipidemic drugs are essential for reducing cardiovascular events and patient mortality.

Purpose: Mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) plays an important role in lipotoxic liver injury in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). This study aims to investigate the pharmacological mechanism of Jiangzhi Granule (JZG), a Chinese herbal formula against NASH, with a focus on its regulation of JNK signaling-mediated mitochondrial function.

Methods: Hepatocytes were induced by palmitic acid (PA) for 24 h to establish an in vitro lipotoxic model, which was simultaneously treated with either JZG or vehicle control.

Beckground And Aims: Individuals with a higher body fat percentage may have higher serum levels of caffeine and its metabolites and process caffeine more slowly than individuals with a lower body fat percentage, so the aim of this study is to compare the occurrence of positive and negative effects of caffeine in nonobese and obese women.

Methods And Results: One hundred and sixty women were included in the study. Body fat was determined using the mBCA 515 SECA analyzer.
