TREHALOSE ITSELF PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE ON LIPID METABOLISM: TREHALOSE INCREASES JEJUNUM CYTOPLASMIC LIPID DROPLETS WHICH NEGATIVELY CORRELATED WITH MESENTERIC ADIPOCYTE SIZE IN BOTH HFD-FED TREHALASE KO AND WT MICE

Trehalose itself plays a critical role on lipid metabolism: Trehalose increases jejunum cytoplasmic lipid droplets which negatively correlated with mesenteric adipocyte size in both HFD-fed trehalase KO and WT mice

Abstract Background Trehalose is a functional disaccharide that has anti-metabolic activities such as suppression of adipocyte hypertrophy in mice and alleviation of impaired glucose tolerance in humans.Trehalase hydrolyzes trehalose in the small intestine into two glucose molecules.In this study, we investigated whether trehalose can suppress adip

Mapping Smart Regions. An Exploratory Approach

The paper presents the results of an exploratory approach aimed at extending the ranking procedures normally used in studying the socioeconomics determinants of smart growth at the regional level.Most of these studies adopt a methodological procedure which essentially consists of the following steps: a) identification of the pertinent elementary in
