Obesity has been linked to a range of pathologies,including *** contrast,regular physical activity is associated with the prevention or reduced progression of ***,physical activity can improve memory and spatial cognition,reduce age-related cognitive decline,and preserve brain volume,but the mechanisms are not fully ***,we investigated whether any detrimental effects of high-fat diet(HFD)-induced obesity on cognition,motor behavior,adult hippocampal neurogenesis,and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)could be mitigated by voluntary exercise training in male C57Bl/6 ***-induced impairment of motor function was not reversed by ***,voluntary wheel running improved long-term memory and increased hippocampal neurogenesis,suggesting that regular physical activity may prevent cognitive decline in obesity.

AIM To estimate prevalence and phenotypic associations of selected inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)-associated genetic variants among Sri Lankan patients. METHODS A case study of histologically confirmed ulcerative colitis(UC) or Crohn's disease(CD) patients with ≥ 1 year disease duration, who were compared to unrelated, gender-matched, healthy individuals as controls, was conducted at four major centers in Sri Lanka. Phenotypic data of the cases were obtained and all participants were genotyped for 16 selected genetic variants: IL12 B :rs1045431, IL23 r :rs11805303, ArPC2 :rs12612347, IrGM :rs13361189, IL26/IL22 :rs1558744, CDH1 :rs1728785, IL10 :rs3024505, FCGr2 A :rs3737240, PTGEr4 :rs4613763, IL17 rEL/PIM3 :rs5771069, HNF4 a :rs6017342, STAT3 :rs744166, SMUrF1 :rs7809799, LAMB1 :rs886774, HLA-DrB5, DQA1, DrB1, DrA :rs9268853, MST1, UBA7, and APEH :rs9822268. The genotypes of all variants were in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium(P > 10^(-3)). To account for multiple hypothesis testing, P-values re considered *** A total of 415 patients and 465 controls were recruited. Out of the single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) tested, the majority were not associated with IBD in Sri Lankans. Significant positive associations were noted between rs886774(LAMB1-gene) and UC(odds ratio(Or) = 1.42, P = 0.001). UC patients with rs886774 had mild disease(Or = 1.66, P remained in remission(Or = 1.48, P rs10045431(IL 12 B gene) and upper gastrointestinal involvement in CD(Or = 4.76, P = 0.002). CONCLUSION This confirms the heterogeneity of allelic mutations in South Asians compared to Caucasians. Most SNPs and disease associations reported here have not been described in South Asians.
