Recent studies show that colon cancer and obesity may be associated to subclinical low-grade inflammation and saturated fatty acid-induced lipotoxicity. Previous study from our laboratory demonstrated that diet-induced obesity increases the secretion of TNF inducing colon carcinogenesis (Flores et al., 2012). On the other hand, anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids through both…
The theory of diseases generated by inflammatory cytokines brought over the years evidence that the body may produce through cytokine biological or detrimental responses. In the mid-19th century, Rudolf Virchow suggested a possible association between inflammation and development of diseases. Thus, believed that inflammation is a key mechanism in the pathogenesis of some diseases such as…
Studies suggest that AMPK is a key protein in inflammation control. Preliminary data of this study suggest that inhibition of the hypothalamic AMPK with compound C leads to central and systemic inflammation in control rodents with and without tumor. Moreover, loss of function of AMPK using genetic techniques is of great relevance. Therefore, the aim of this study will be to assess the rol…
