“…A specific enhancement in adipogenesis in VAT and an elevation in lipolysis and thermogenesis-related gene expression in SCAT of HFD SRC-3 -/-mice along with increased corticosterone level in serum of SRC-3 -/-mice could be possible explanations to the fat redistribution occurred in SRC-3 -/-mice under HFD. Since some clinical disorders, i.e., Cushing's syndrome, HIV-associated adipose redistribution syndrome and metabolic syndrome [33,34], are characterized with VAT obesity, the primary pathogenic cause of which is a preferential VAT expansion in patients, our results might provide novel clues to the pathogenesis and therapeutic researches on these diseases.…”

An emerging concept suggests that an aberrant distributed body fat is closely linked to the occurrence of metabolic abnormalities. Mice deficient in steroid receptor coactivator-3 (SRC-3) are shown to be protected against high-fat diet (HFD) induced obesity but little is known about whether visceral (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCAT) distribute differently in SRC-3(-/-) mice versus SRC-3(+/+) mice. Here we reported that under HFD, fat redistributed between VAT and subcutaneous area of SRC-3(-/-) mice. When VAT/SCAT weight ratio (VAT/SCAT ratio) was calculated, SRC-3(-/-) mice had significantly elevated VAT/SCAT ratio in HFD versus normal diet (ND), while VAT/SCAT ratio was similar in SRC-3(+/+) mice under ND and HFD. Serological changes in SRC-3(-/-) mice paralleled the altered fat distribution. In SRC-3(-/-) mice, assays on gene expression revealed an increase in adipogenesis in VAT versus SCAT and an elevation in thermogenesis and lipolysis in SCAT versus VAT, which could explain the preferential fat accumulation in SRC-3(-/-) VAT. Our results presented in vivo evidence that SRC-3 deficiency could lead to fat redistribution under HFD in mice and provided new clues to researches on the pathogenesis of fat redistribution.

“…In contrast 11␤HSD type 1 is widely distributed in tissue and almost exclusively converts cortisone to cortisol in vivo, thereby facilitating glucocorticoid actions in tissue [2,3]. Urine free cortisone and the ratio of urine cortisol to cortisone are considered sensitive indices of 11␤HSD type 2 activity [4].…”

A didactical exposition of the classical problem of the trajectory determination of a body, subject to the gravity in a resistant medium, is proposed. Our revisitation is aimed at showing a derivation of the problem solution which should be as simple as possible from a technical point of view, in order to be grasped even by first-year undergraduates. A central role in our analysis is played by the so-called "chain rule" for derivatives, which is systematically used to remove the temporal variable from Newton's law in order to derive the differential equation of the Cartesian representation of the trajectory, with a considerable reduction of the overall mathematical complexity. In particular, for a resistant medium exerting a force quadratic with respect to the velocity our approach leads to the differential equation of the trajectory, which allows its Taylor series expansion to be derived in an easy way. A numerical comparison of the polynomial approximants obtained by truncating such series with the solution recently proposed through a homotopy analysis is also presented.
