BACKGROUND & AIMS: Non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) and substrate oxidation are significant components of Energy Balance; their regulation may be modulated according to nutritional status and their impairment has been advocated as a factor facilitating the development of excess body fat.
In this study body composition, resting metabolic rate (RMR), fidgeting as a component of NEAT and respiratory quotient (RQ), an index of preferential substrate oxidation, have been evaluated in 80 young women: 20 restrictive anorexia nervosa (rAN: BMI 15.1+/-1.6 kg/m(2)); 20 constitutional leanness (CL: BMI 17.2+/-1.0); 20 obese patients (Ob: BMI 43.8+/-10.0) and 20 controls (CTR: BMI 21.7+/-2.4).
Fat free mass, fat mass and RMR progressively increased from rAN to Ob (p < 0.05). Fidgeting was higher in CL (67.2+/-27.2 kcal; p < 0.05) than in the other groups. Lipid oxidation, evaluated with RQ showed a negative correlation with fidgeting in CL (r=-0.433; p<0.05) and positive in Ob (r=0.572; p<0.05) and in rAN (r=0.434; p<0.05).
Our findings support the regulatory function of NEAT, its protective role to prevent excess body fat accumulation and its positive relation with fat oxidation in CL.
非运动活动产热(NEAT)和底物氧化是能量平衡的重要组成部分;它们的调节可能会根据营养状况进行调整,并且它们的受损被认为是促进体内脂肪过多积累的一个因素。
在本研究中,对80名年轻女性的身体成分、静息代谢率(RMR)、作为NEAT组成部分的坐立不安程度以及呼吸商(RQ,优先底物氧化的指标)进行了评估:20名患有神经性厌食症的节食者(rAN:体重指数15.1±1.6kg/m²);20名体质偏瘦者(CL:体重指数17.2±1.0);20名肥胖患者(Ob:体重指数43.8±10.0)和20名对照组(CTR:体重指数21.7±2.4)。
从rAN组到Ob组,去脂体重、脂肪量和RMR逐渐增加(p<0.05)。CL组的坐立不安程度(67.2±27.2千卡;p<0.05)高于其他组。用RQ评估的脂质氧化在CL组与坐立不安程度呈负相关(r=-0.433;p<0.05),在Ob组呈正相关(r=0.572;p<0.05),在rAN组也呈正相关(r=0.434;p<0.05)。
我们的研究结果支持NEAT的调节功能、其在预防体内脂肪过多积累方面的保护作用以及它与CL组脂肪氧化的正相关关系。
