In both human and animal organisms, tissues can be individually programmed in critical periods of development, such as intrauterine life, in order to modulate their response to different environments after birth. Such modulation, in the long term, can lead to the development of diseases such as obesity and metabolic syndrome. In the US and Brazil, obesity and the metabolic syndrome are on…
In recent decades, obesity and the metabolic syndrome have become increasingly prevalent in the world population. Recently the consequences of lipid overload during critical periods of development on the metabolism of offspring, through epigenetic changes, have been evidenced contributing to the development of obesity and its complications, such as hepatic steatosis. Among the epigenetic …
In recent decades, obesity and metabolic syndrome have become increasingly prevalent in the world population. Exposure to lipid overload is capable of inducing not only the development of obesity and its complications, such as hepatic steatosis, but also program the individual and its descendants, by epigenetic modifications, to important metabolic changes for several generations. Among t…

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small molecules of non-coding RNAs whose primary function is the modulation of gene expression through the interaction with target messenger RNA (s). MiRNAs can be released into extracellular fluids and transported in different ways, namely I) internalized in extracellular vesicles, such as exosomes and microvesicles; II) vesicles free miRNA, bound to the Ago2 prote…
In the last decades, the supply and consumption of ultra-processed foods rich in calories andsaturated fat has become more frequent, contributing to the extensive expansion of obesityconditions around the globe. Obesity is a multifactorial disease characterized by excessadiposity that compromises the individual's health. It is currently known that a maternalobesogenic environment can caus…
The number of obese in the world population is directly associated with the increase in the prevalence of Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD), condition in which there is accumulation of triglycerides (TAG) in the liver, which can lead to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), with progression to fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocarcinoma. It is known that hepatic lipid metabolism can b…
In recent decades, obesity and metabolic syndrome have become diseases of high prevalence worldwide. Changes in lifestyle and eating habits, especially during critical periods of development, lead the progeny to important metabolic alterations through epigenetic mechanisms, such as modulation of miRNA expression, contributing to the maintenance of a "vicious cycle" of obesity and its como…

The obesity has acquired epidemic characteristics and the same numbers that indicate the increase in obesity also showed a significant increase in individuals with diabetes mellitus type II. It is now known that both diseases exhibit a metabolic response characteristic, which leads to changes in intracellular signaling pathways and glucose homeostasis. High fat diet (HFD) consumption is r…
