Interaction Information:
Comment | After chronic glucose feeding (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks), the systolic blood pressure increases significantly. |

Comment | Chronic glucose feeding (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks) resulted in a significant increase in plasma levels of glucose. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45140 |
|
Comment | Chronic glucose feeding and subsequent supplementation with alpha-lipoic acid resulted in a significant increase in plasma levels of glucose. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45161 |

Comment | Chronic glucose feeding (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks) resulted in a significant elevation of insulin resistance index, as expressed by HOMA. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45175 |
|
Comment | Chronic glucose feeding and subsequent supplementation with alpha-lipoic acid reduces the elevated insulin level. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45176 |
drug/chemical compound decreases_activity of phenotype |
Comment | Chronic glucose feeding (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks) resulted in a significant elevation of insulin resistance index, as expressed by HOMA. Subsequent treatment with alpha-lipoic acid attenuated this increase. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45273 |
|
Comment | The basal aortic O2- level significantly increased in glucose-fed mice (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks). Subsequent treatment with alpha-lipoic acid decreases the O2- production. |

Comment | The basal aortic O2- level significantly increased in glucose-fed mice (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks). Subsequent treatment with alpha-lipoic acid decreases the O2- production. |
Formal Description Interaction-ID: 45275 |
|
Comment | Chronic glucose feeding (10% glucose in addition to normal chow diet for 4 weeks) resulted in significant decrease of PPARgamma level in aorta and heart tissues. Supplementation of alpha-lipoic acid not only prevented the decrease of PPARgamma, but also increased PPARgamma levels in aorta and heart tissues. |
