Effects of Simultaneous Intake of Soybean Protein and Diacylglycerol on Lipid Profiles and Body Fat Accumulation in Rats

Differential modulation of the functionality of white adipose tissue of obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats by the type of protein and the amount and type of fat

“…Although it has been documented that the type of protein and the type of fat influence diverse aspects of adipose tissue, studies rarely analyze the effect of the interaction between both dietary components given simultaneously [14,15] and the adaptations that occur in WAT, particularly in obese rats. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the effects of two types of protein (casein or soy) together with an excess of dietary fat with different fatty acid patterns (coconut or soybean oil, composed mostly of saturated [SFAs] or polyunsaturated fatty acids [PUFAs], respectively) on the following: WAT morphology; composition of esterified fatty acids in WAT; lipolysis regulation and signaling, as well as the type of FFA released; and the expression of metabolic genes and proteins in the WAT of obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats, a well-known model of metabolic syndrome [16] with leptin, insulin and stimulated lipolysis resistance [16][17][18][19].…”

Aplicação de espectroscopia no infravermelho e análise multivariada para previsão de parâmetros de qualidade em soja e quinoa

“…A quinoa é um pseudocereal, superior aos cereais em qualidade e proporção de proteínas, lipídios, vitaminas e minerais. Estes grãos estão sendo incluídos na dieta humana, principalmente na formulação de pães, massas, barras de cereais, cereais matinais, entre outros, valendo-se da ausência de glúten em sua composição (Borges et al, 2010;Nagata;Yamada, 2009).…”
