Objectives The present study investigated how the serum lipids responded to a high-fat meal in black South African subjects with different APOE genotypes, a population that until recently was reported to be consuming a traditional diet of low fat and high carbohydrates. Methods Sixty students (males and females) of the University of Limpopo, Turfloop Campus were successfully genotyped using Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and grouped into four APOE genotype groups; ε2, ε2/ε4, ε3 and ε4. Only thirty-three subjects volunteered to participate in the oral fat-tolerance test (OFTT), but two were excluded for having abnormal total cholesterol (6.05 mmol/l) and LDL cholesterol (3.12 mmol/l) so only 31 subjects were left. The numbers per group were ε2=5, ε2/ε4=8, ε3=9 and ε4=9. After an overnight fast blood was drawn for measurements of baseline serum parameters. Subjects were administered a high fat meal 30 minutes after the baseline blood sample was drawn. Blood was drawn at intervals of 20, 40, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 and 360 minutes for measurements of postprandial serum parameter levels. Serum parameters measured were triglyceride, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, glucose and insulin. Results Mean levels of serum lipids at baseline in mmol/l were as follows; group 1[TG=0.69(0.55-0.81), TCHOL=3.10±0.29, HDL-C=1.12±0.32, LDLC= 1.67±0.28]; group 2 [TG=0.61(0.53-1.00), TCHOL=2.98±0.53, HDLC= 1.20±0.37, LDL-C=1.43±0.37]; group 3 [TG=0.67(0.28-0.86), TCHOL=2.96±0.54, HDL-C=1.22±0.30, LDL-C=1.46±0.47]; group 4 [TG=0.76(0.51-1.16), TCHOL=3.27±0.51, HDL-C=1.12±0.17, LDLC= 1.79±0.47]. There was no significant difference in the mean levels of baseline triglyceride, total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and ix high density lipoprotein cholesterol between the APOE groups hence no significant difference in the response to a fatty meal. Conclusions There was no significant change in serum lipid concentrations after a fatty meal in individuals with different APOE genotypes in a population that consume a traditional diet of low fat and high carbohydrates. Due to the small sample size, the results should be interpreted with caution. A larger study is recommended to ascertain the role of APOE genotypes on serum lipid response to a fatty meal in Black South African population.

Este estudo teve como objetivo investigar a ingestão regular do suco de laranja de polpa vermelha sobre alguns fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares em indivíduos adultos residentes nos municípios de Araraquara (SP) e Matão (SP). A variedade das laranjas de polpa vermelha é também conhecida como laranja sanguínea de Mombuca, e sua coloração é devida à presença de carotenóides, especialmente beta-caroteno e licopeno. Participaram deste estudo 19 homens e 16 mulheres que receberam 750 mL/dia de suco de laranja vermelha pasteurizado durante 8 semanas. As variáveis antropométricas utilizadas foram: peso, altura, dobras cutâneas do tríceps, bíceps, subescapular e suprailíaca e circunferência da cintura. Para a avaliação bioquímica foram realizadas dosagens de colesterol total, colesterol de HDL, apolipoproteínas A1 e B, proteína C reativa, homocisteína, triglicérides e glicemia. Para a avaliação hemodinâmica foram verificadas a pressão arterial sistólica e a diastólica, e para a avaliação dietética foi utilizado o recordatório alimentar de 24 horas. Todas as avaliações foram realizadas antes e após o consumo de suco de laranja vermelha. Os resultados mostraram que o colesterol total foi reduzido em 9% entre os participantes que consumiram o suco de laranja vermelha, o colesterol de LDL em 11%, a apolipoproteína B em 5% e a proteína C reativa em 49%. A pressão arterial sistólica foi reduzida em 4% entre os participantes eutróficos e a pressão diastólica foi reduzida em 4% entre os participantes com excesso de peso. Não houve diminuição significativa das variáveis antropométricas. O consumo do suco de laranja vermelha aumentou em 907% a ingestão de vitamina C e 145% a ingestão de folato das mulheres, e 1130% de vitamina C e 123% de folato dos homens.

This study had as objective investigates the regular ingestion of the red orange juice over risk factors for the development of cardiovascular disease in adults residents in the cities of Araraquara (SP) and Matão (SP). The variety of red pulp orange is also known as Mombuca blood orange, and its color is due to the carotenoids, especially from beta-carotene and lycopene. The study included 19 men and 16 women, which received 750 mL/d of pasteurized red orange juice during 8 weeks. It was evaluated in all subjects: weigh, height, skin folds (triceps, biceps, subscapular and suprailiac), waist circumference and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Biochemical parameters were accomplished for total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, apolipoproteins A1 and B, C reactive protein, homocysteine, triglycerides and glucose. For hemodynamic assessment were observed systolic and diastolic blood pressure and dietary evaluation was estimated using 24h food record. All evaluations were accomplished before and after consumption of red orange juice. The results showed that the consumers of red orange juice decreased total cholesterol by 9%, LDLcholesterol by 11%, apo B by 5% and the C reactive protein by 49%. Systolic blood pressure was reduced 4% among eutrophic participants and the diastolic blood pressure reduced 4% among the pre-obese participants. There was no significant reduction on anthropometric variables. Consumption of red orange juice increased 10 folds the intake of vitamin C and double the intake of folate for all volunteers. Regular consumption of red orange juice has shown hypolipidemic and hypotensive properties, while both juices, from the red and yellow oranges, have shown antiinflammatory effects

Metabolic syndrome comprises a constellation of morbidities such as insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, atherogenic dyslipidemia, dysglycemia and obesity (especially abdominal). Metabolic alterations are observed in major insulin target organs, increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases, type-2 diabetes and therefore mortality. Tissue alterations are characterized by immune cells infiltrates (especially activated macrophages). Released inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α induce chronic inflammation in subjects with metabolic syndrome, since inflammatory pathways are activated in the neighboring cells. The intra-abdominal adipose tissue appears to be of particular importance in the onset of the inflammatory state, and strategies contributing to modulate the inflammatory process within this adipose tissue can mitigate the metabolic syndrome consequences. Considering the low level light therapy (LLLT) recognized benefits in inflammatory conditions, we hypothesized this therapeutic approach could promote positive effects in modulating the inflammatory state of metabolic syndrome. That being the scope of this study, male C57BL/6 AND BALB/c mice were submitted to a high-fat/high-fructose diet among 8 weeks to induce metabolic syndrome. Animals were then irradiated on the abdominal region during 21 days using an 850 nm LED (6 sessions, 300 seconds per session, 60 mW output power, ~6 J/cm² fluence, ~19 mW/cm² fluence rate). Before and during treatment, blood was sampled either from the retro-orbital plexus or from tail puncture for glucose, total cholesterol and triglycerides analysis. Our results indicate no alterations on these metabolic parameters after LLLT.
