Aims/hypothesis: These secondary analyses aimed to investigate the effects of different volumes of exercise in adjunct to diet-induced weight loss and standard care on advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and receptor for AGE (RAGE). We hypothesized that exercise in adjunct to a diet-induced weight loss would dose-dependently increase the soluble decoy receptor for AGE (sRAGE) more than diet-induced weight loss and standard care alone. Secondarily, we expected changes in sRAGE to be associated with improved glycaemic control and inversely associated with low-grade inflammation.

Methods: The DOSE-EX study was a 16-week parallel-group, 4-arm, single-centre, assessor-blinded, randomised, controlled trial (NCT03769883). We included persons living with T2D, duration ≤7 years, BMI >27 kg/m and <40 kg/m, without severe diabetic complications. Participants were randomised (1:1:1:1) to either 1) standard care as control (CON), 2) standard care + diet (DCON), 3) standard care + diet + moderate exercise dose (MED) or 4) standard care + diet + high exercise dose (HED). Standard care included algorithm-guided pharmacological treatment. The diet intervention aimed at 25% reduced energy intake. The supervised exercise sessions included two aerobic sessions + one combined (aerobic and resistance training) session per week for the MED group, and four aerobic sessions + two combined sessions per week for the HED group. Primary outcome was the change in sRAGE from baseline to 16-week follow-up. Secondary outcomes encompassed changes in advanced glycation endproducts (AGE), glycaemic control and markers of low-grade inflammation.

Results: A total of 80 participants (CON: n = 20, DCON: n = 19, MED: n = 20, HED: n = 21) were included in this secondary analysis. The mean age was 58.3 years (SD 9.9), 53% males, and median T2D duration was 4.1 years (IQR 2.0-5.5). No change in sRAGE was observed in any of the groups from baseline to follow-up (p > 0.05).

Conclusion/interpretation: A 16-week intervention with either three or six exercise sessions per week in adjunct to diet-induced weight loss did not change the levels of sRAGE in persons living with well-regulated, short standing T2D.

The nutritional environment during fetal and early postnatal life has a long-term impact on growth, development, and metabolic health of the offspring, a process termed "nutritional programming." Rodent models studying programming effects of nutritional interventions use either purified or grain-based rodent diets as background diets. However, the impact of these diets on phenotypic outcomes in these models has not been comprehensively investigated.

Emerging evidence indicates that astrocytes modulate energy metabolism and homeostasis. However, one important but poorly understood element is the necessity of astrocytes in the control of body weight. Here, we apply viral vector-assisted brain-region selective loss of astrocytes to define physiological roles played by astrocytes in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH) and to elucidate the involved mechanism.

The Effects of Novel Co-Amorphous Naringenin and Fisetin Compounds on a Diet-Induced Obesity Murine Model.

Nutrients

December 2024

Departamento de Fisiología de la Nutrición, Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Médicas y Nutrición Salvador Zubirán, CDMX, México 14080, Mexico.

Background/objective: In recent studies, it has been shown that dietary bioactive compounds can produce health benefits; however, it is not known whether an improvement in solubility can enhance their biological effects. Thus, the aim of this work was to study whether co-amorphous (CoA) naringenin or fisetin with enhanced solubility modify glucose and lipid metabolism, thermogenic capacity and gut microbiota in mice fed a high-fat, high-sucrose (HFSD) diet.

Methods: Mice were fed with an HFSD with or without CoA-naringenin or CoA-fisetin for 3 months.
