- 2From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: The 11[beta]-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11[beta]-HSD1) enzyme catalyses the regeneration of active cortisol from inert cortisone and plays a critical role in tissue-specific corticosteroid...
- 3From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder with several nutritional phases during childhood proceeding from poor feeding, through normal eating without and with obesity, to...
- 4From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) is a reactive oxygen species (ROS) producing NADPH oxidase that regulates redox homeostasis in diverse insulin-sensitive cell types. In particular, NOX4-derived ROS is a key modulator...

- 6From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedLiver X receptors (LXRs) are members of the nuclear receptor family and are present in two isoforms, a and b, encoded by two separate genes. Originally described in the liver, LXRs have in the last 15 years been...
- 7From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: To assess the association of the severity of obesity with diagnosis and health education, and to identify any differences within demographic or other subgroups. DESIGN: Clinician visits for 2-18 year olds...
- 8From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: Circulating angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was identified as a predictor of weight loss maintenance in overweight/obese women of the Diogenes project. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether ACE acted also...
- 9From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedOBJECTIVE: Obesity and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have emerged as major public health problems. We aimed to examine: (a) lifestyle and behavioral factors, (b) factors related to pursuing weight loss and (c) weight...
- 10From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: It is known that cholinergic anti-inflammatory reflex regulates inflammation in peripheral tissues. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are mediators of this anti-inflammatory pathway and also...
- 11From: International Journal of Obesity. (Vol. 36, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedBACKGROUND: The physiological control of feeding behavior involves modulation of the intake inhibitory effects of gastrointestinal satiation signaling via endogenous hindbrain leptin receptor (LepR) and...
