| Research Abstract |
We examined the effect of the milk deprivation and refeeding on the Nesfatin and GALP genes expression during pre-weaning period. After milk deprivation, the Nesfatin and GALP genes expression was significantly increased. Refeeding induced significant decrease of the GALP gene expression. It is suggested that Nesfatin and GALP might have roles in the control of water drinking and osmolality regulation in the preweaning period.
We investigated the relationship between plasma levels of BDNF and 25(OH) vit D, and obesity-related metabolic complication. The plasma BDNF levels, which is decreased in the morbidly obese children, are associated with birth weight. The plasma levels of 25(OH) vit D, which is decreased in the obese children and adolescents with MetS, are associated with PTH,BMI, waist circumference and UA. Our results suggest that BDNF and vitamin D may play important roles in the development and pathophysiology of obesity and MetS in childhood and adolescents.
