          Abstract

          INTRODUÇÃO: O acúmulo de tecido adiposo provoca uma série de distúrbios metabólicos, os quais poderiam ser atenuados pela modulação dietética e prática de exercícios físicos. OBJETIVO: Avaliar os efeitos de dietas hipercalóricas/hiperlipídicas com extrato de baru e chocolate associadas ao exercício aeróbio sobre a área de adipócitos e triglicérides hepáticos (TGLhep) de ratos. MÉTODOS: Após o desmame, ratos da linhagem Wistar, com exceção dos controles (dieta Nuvilab®; 3,48kcal/g), foram alimentados com dieta à base de chocolate (4,17kcal/g), por dois meses, para indução da obesidade. Feito isso, os animais foram distribuídos em seis grupos: controle sedentários (CS), controle exercitados (CE), baru sedentários (BS), baru exercitados (BE), chocolate sedentários (CHOS), chocolate exercitados (CHOE), de acordo com a introdução da dieta com extrato de baru e treinamento de natação (2% do peso corporal., 8 sem., 5x/semana, 1h/sessão). Após a morte dos animais, o conteúdo de TGLhep foi determinado e os tecidos adiposos retroperitoneal, inguinal e omental foram removidos, pesados e submetidos à avaliação da área de adipócitos. RESULTADOS: As dietas hipercalóricas aumentaram o peso e a área de células do tecido retroperitoneal em relação à dieta controle (p < 0,05). O exercício reduziu a área de células do tecido omental (CHOE: 6.370,91 ± 7.776,13 < CHOS: 7.341,28 ± 5.862,24µm²) e inguinal (CHOE: 5.147,49 ± 5.712,71 < CHOS: 7.083,11 ± 7.682,40µm²) do grupo chocolate e inguinal do controle (CE: 2.212,87 ± 1.920,34 < CS: 3.386,11 ± 3.973,09µm²). O conteúdo de TGLhep dos animais sedentários apresentou-se mais elevado em relação aos animais exercitados e alimentados com as dietas hipercalóricas (BS: 1,36 ± 0,50 > BE: 0,88 ± 0,43mg.100mg-1; CHOS: 1,77 ± 0,64 > CHOE: 0,86 ± 0,41mg.100mg-1). CONCLUSÃO: O treinamento físico em intensidade leve à moderada reduziu significativamente os depósitos adiposos omental (visceral) e inguinal dos animais alimentados com dieta controle e chocolate. Esse mesmo comportamento não foi reproduzido com a dieta à base de extrato de baru. Os animais exercitados apresentaram menor conteúdo de TGLhep, mesmo na persistência das dietas hiperlipídicas/hipercalóricas.

          INTRODUCTION: Fat tissue accumulation provokes several metabolic disorders, which may be attenuated by dietetic modulation and physical exercise. OBJECTIVE: The effects of hypercaloric/hyperlipidic diets with additional baru extract associated to aerobic exercise on adipocytes from different regions as well as on hepatic triglycerides (TGLhep)of Wistar rats were evaluated. METHODS: The animals, except for the control ones (Nuvilab® diet: 3.48kcal/g), were fed with a chocolate-based diet (4.17 kcal/g) during 2 months in order to induce obesity. The animals were then distributed into 6 groups, according to the introduction of baru extract diet as well as to swimming training: Sedentary Control (SC); Trained Control (TC); Sedentary Baru (SB); Trained Baru (TB); Sedentary Chocolate (SCho) and Trained Chocolate (TCho). The trained animals were subjected to swimming exercise supporting overload equivalent to 2% of body weight, during 8 weeks, 5x/week, and 1h/day. At the end, the animals were killed and the TGLhep content was determined. The retroperitoneal (RET), inguinal (IN), and omental (OM) fat tissues were excised, weighted, and submitted to adipocyte area evaluation. RESULTS: The hypercaloric diet increased both body weight and cell areas of RET if compared to the control diet (P<0.05). The physical training decreased the OM (TCho: 6370.91 ± 7776.13 < SCho: 7341.28 ± 2.24 µm2) and IN (TCho: 5147.49 ± 5712.71 < SCho: 7083.11±7682.40 µm2) cell areas of chocolate group as well as IN cell areas of TC (TE: 2212.87 ± 1920.34 < SC: 3386.11 ± 3973.09µm²). The TGLhep contents of sedentary animals were higher in comparison to the trained rats fed with hypercaloric diets (SB: 1.36 ± 0.50 > TB: 0.88 ± 0.43mg.100mg-1; SCho: 1.77 ± 0.64 > TCho: 0.86 ± 0.41mg.100mg-1). CONCLUSION: In the conditions of the present study, the exercise training protocol seemed more effective than the diet protocol in attenuating lipid tissue accumulation in rats.

          Visceral fat and insulin resistance--causative or correlative?

          K. Frayn (2000)
          The association between abdominal fat accumulation and risk of chronic diseases, including type II diabetes and coronary heart disease, has long been recognized. Insulin resistance may be a key factor in this link. Many studies have pointed to an association between insulin resistance and intra-abdominal fat accumulation (visceral obesity). However there is no clear proof of a causal link between visceral fat accumulation and insulin resistance. In assessing the probability of a causal link, it is useful to consider potential mechanisms. One such potential causal link is the release of non-esterified fatty acids from visceral fat into the portal vein, so that they have direct effects on hepatic metabolism. Visceral fat has been shown in many studies to exhibit a high rate of lipolysis compared with subcutaneous fat depots. However, if the idea that visceral fat releases fatty acids into the portal vein at a high rate is examined critically, a number of difficulties appear. Not least of these is the fact that continued high rates of lipolysis should lead to the disappearance of the visceral fat depot, unless these high rates of fat mobilization are matched by high rates of fat deposition. There is far less evidence for high rates of fat deposition in visceral adipose tissue, and some contrary evidence. Evidence for high rates of visceral lipolysis in vivo from studies involving catheterization of the portal vein is not strong. If this potential link is discounted, then other reasons for the relationship between visceral fat and insulin resistance must be considered. One is that there is no direct causal link, but both co-correlate with some other variable. A possibility is that this other variable is subcutaneous abdominal fat, which usually outweighs intra-abdominal fat several-fold. Subcutaneous fat probably plays the major role in determining systemic plasma non-esterified fatty acid concentrations, which are relevant in determining insulin resistance. In conclusion, there is at present no proof of a causal link between visceral fat accumulation and insulin resistance, or the associated metabolic syndrome. The possibility of co-correlation with some other factor, such as subcutaneous abdominal fat accumulation, must not be forgotten.

              Fat distribution and storage: how much, where, and how?

              Ram Weiss (2007)
              Obesity does not necessarily imply disease and similarly obese individuals may manifest obesity-related morbidity or seemingly be in reasonably good health. Recent studies have shown that patterns of lipid partitioning are a major determinant of the metabolic profile and not just obesity per se. The underlying mechanisms and clinical relevance of lipid deposition in the visceral compartment and in insulin-sensitive tissues are described. Increased intramyocellular lipid deposition impairs the insulin signal transduction pathway and is associated with insulin resistance. Increased hepatic lipid deposition is similarly associated with the majority of the components of the insulin resistance syndrome. The roles of increased circulating fatty acids in conditions of insulin resistance and the typical pro-inflammatory milieu of specific obesity patterns are provided. Insights into the patterns of lipid storage within the cell are provided along with their relation to changes in insulin sensitivity and weight loss.
