Obesity triggers inflammation and oxidative stress, both of which are involved in the pathogenesis of various organs. For this reason, natural compounds with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant action have been the subject of research, since these substances can be easily implemented in the food routine. Bergamot (Citrus bergamia) is a citrus fruit that has an antioxidant and anti-inflammat…
Cardiorenal metabolic syndrome (CRMS) is a pathological condition associated with the development of cardiac and renal dysfunction due to obesity and associated complications, in which oxidative stress plays an important role in triggering the carbonylation of proteins The gamma-oryzanol (³Oz), the main phytosterol present in rice grains, has demonstrated potential antiadipogenic, hypocho…
Obesity is associated with several comorbidities such as dyslipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, insulin resistance (IR) and diabetes mellitus type 2. Currently the literature reports that these comorbidities are directly related to oxidative stress and inflammation, situations that trigger an imbalance in production adipokine, or increase of proinflammatory cytokines and decrease adiponectin…

Introduction: The high consumption of industrialized diets contributes to the development of chronic metabolic diseases that are associated with early stages of several diseases, such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a lifestyle- associated disease whose pathophysiological processes are contained in the metabolic syndrome. Molecular and Omics strategies are used in order to fi…
Obesity, in the last decades, has been pointed out as a public health problem for causing comorbidities that compromise the cardiovascular system. Among the pathophysiological mechanisms is the chronic low-grade inflammation resulting from the predominance of the M1-type macrophage profile. Therapeutic strategies have been investigated in an attempt to relieve these comorbidities so that …
Obesity is defined as the excessive accumulation of body fat that can lead to health damage, including cardiac dysfunction. Oxidative stress and inflammation, originating from adipose tissue dysfunction, in the obesogenic scenario, are some mechanisms involved in this pathophysiology. Bioactive compounds present in vegetables, due to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, con…

Obesity is a disease characterized as excess body fat that can harm health, including impaired renal function. Among the various pathophysiological mechanisms involved in renal disease in obesity, there is oxidative stress. Thus, studies with bioactive compounds that have antioxidant potential have been increasingly in evidence. Bergamot, a fruit found in southern Italy, has antioxidant a…
Important social, economic, and technological changes, resulting from the globalization process, have been impacting society's lifestyle. In general, this situation has influenced the population's eating habits, increasing the consumption of foods rich in sugars and fats, processed and ultra-processed, characterizing an eating pattern known as the western diet. The intake of this diet, ac…
High sugar and fat diets, when consumed in excess, can trigger obesity and complications, which mainly affect the liver, kidneys, heart and adipose tissue, considered obesity target organs. Studies report that these complications are mainly associated with inflammation and oxidative stress. Bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, present in bergamot (Citrus bergamia), hav…

The current nutritional transition process added to a sedentary lifestyle has been associated with the remodeling and expansion of adipose tissue, so called obesity. The various substances produced by this tissue are called adipokines, and include hormones and other proteins such as cytokines, in this case called adipocytokines, among them are interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-±…
