TAILIEUCHUNG - Ebook Medicinal plants in asia for metabolic syndrome - Natural products and molecular basis: Part 2

Part 2 book “Medicinal plants in asia for metabolic syndrome - Natural products and molecular basis” has contents: Inhibiting insulin resistance and accumulation of triglycerides and cholesterol in the liver, increasing the sensitivity of adipocytes and skeletal muscle cells to insulin, inhibiting low-density lipoproteins intimal deposition and preserving nitric oxide function in the vascular system. | 3 Inhibiting Insulin Resistance and Accumulation of Triglycerides and Cholesterol in the Liver Visceral obesity favors the generation of reactive oxygen species, plasmatic nonesterified fatty acids, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6 that act synergistically to bring about hepatic insulin Insulin resistance evokes a subnormal hepatic storage of glucose into glycogen and increases glucose production by the liver from glycogen, as well as de novo synthesis of glucose (gluconeogenesis) accounting for a fasting glycaemia, above mmol/L (110 mg/dL) and below mmol/L (125 mg/dL).2 In a state of insulin resistance, insulin is unable to suppress lipolysis in adipocytes and to activate adipose tissues endothelial lipoprotein lipase resulting in increased plasma nonesterified fatty acid supply to the liver that translates into increased hepatic production of very low-density lipoprotein levels and atherogenic –5 According to the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel (ATP) III definition, metabolic syndrome will be present if at least three of the following criteria are met: waist circumference more than 40 inches (men) or 35 inches (women), blood pressure more than 130/85 mmHg, fasting triglyceride level superior to 150 mg/dl, fasting high-density lipoprotein–cholesterol below 40 mg/dL (men) or 50 mg/dL (women), and fasting blood sugar above 100 mg/ Excess of plasma glucose and triglycerides in metabolic syndrome result is fatty acid accumulation in the liver disrupting hepatocytes function leading to nonalcoholic Thus, inhibiting insulin resistance and accumulation of triglycerides and cholesterol in the liver with natural products constitute one therapeutic strategy to prevent or manage insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome.
