Abstract:
Background: The metabolic syndrome is associated with an increased risk of diabetes and vascular disease. In order to understand the pathophysiological processes underlying such risk, it is necessary to develop a better understanding of normal fat metabolism and abnormalities associated with the syndrome. The hypothesis tested in this thesis is that specific abnormalities in adipose tissue and muscle fat metabolism characterise the metabolic syndrome. Methods: Fasting biochemical parameters were measured in a cohort of overweight men with and without the metabolic syndrome. Stable-isotope labe

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] Arachidonic acid is oxidised in vivo by non-enzymatic (free radical) or enzymatic pathways (cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, and cytochrome P450) to form a range of biologically active eicosanoids. Specifically, arachidonic acid is metabolised by cytochrome P450 -hydroxylase to produce vasoactive 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE), and by 5-lipoxygenase to produce proinflammatory leukotriene B4 (LTB4), which can further be metabolised by -hydroxylase to from 20-OH-LTB4 and 20-COOH-LTB4.

Abstract:
Metabolic syndrome is a constellation of risk factors, including abdominal obesity, hypertriglyceridemia, low HDL cholesterol, high blood pressure, and high fasting glucose, that commonly cluster together and can result in cardiovascular disease. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome and the components that comprise the syndrome vary by age and by racial/ethnic group. In addition, previous research has indicated that the risk factors contributing to metabolic syndrome may be exacerbated by exposure to perceived stress. This study utilized data from the 2002, 2004, and 2006 Health and Retirement

Recent studies support the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of cardiovascular risk factors, and diastolic dysfunction. Disproportionate collagen accumulation, particularly cross-linking of collagen, plays a key role in translating interstitial fibrosis into mechanical chamber stiffness and diastolic dysfunction. Characteristic changes in the expression and activity of myocardial lysyl oxidase (LOX), a matrix modifying enzyme that catalyzes cross-linked collagen, are unclear in MetS.

The polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous disorder in women characterised by chronic ovulatory failure, hyperandrogenaemia, and insulin resistance.

The pathophysiology of PCOS is not completely understood, but it is thought that insulin resistance plays a central role.
