12(1):e0169581.
PMID: 28141871
Adipose tissue macrophages (ATM) are implicated in adipose tissue inflammation and obesity-related insulin resistance. Maternal low protein models result in fetal programming of obesity. The study aims to answer whether...

Biol Trace Elem Res
. 2013 Nov;
6(5):369-78.
PMID: 24264174
Copper deficiency has been reported to cause glucose intolerance in rats by interfering with normal glucose utilization. Accordingly, copper deficiency was produced in rats to study its effects on glucose-6-P...

J Nutr
. 2013 Aug;
143(10):1533-9.
PMID: 23946348
Maternal low-protein diets result in lower birth weight followed by accelerated catch-up growth that is accompanied by the development of obesity and glucose intolerance in later life. Whether postnatal high-fat...

. 2013 Apr;
26(1-2):19-28.
PMID: 23604915
Heart mitochondria experience age-related declines in cytochrome c oxidase (CCO) activity and increases in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that may contribute to loss of cardiac function and...

. 2013 Mar;
21(8):1669-75.
PMID: 23512597
Objective: Dietary fructose and copper interaction may play an important role in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In this study, whether or not modest fructose consumption (3% fructose,...

Inflammation
. 2009 Jul;
32(5):333-9.
PMID: 19609832
Copper deficiency inactivates Cu/Zn-SOD and promotes accumulation of reactive oxygen species. This process likely impairs nitric oxide (NO)-mediated relaxation as well as triggers vascular inflammation. The current study was designed...
