Abstract
Obesity is associated with increased risk of several chronic diseases and the loss of disease-free years, which has increased the focus of much research for the discovery of therapy to combat it. Under healthy conditions, women tend to store more fat in subcutaneous deposits. However, this sexual dimorphism tends to be lost in the presence of comorbidities, such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Aerobic physical exercise (APE) has been applied in the management of obesity, however, is still necessary to better understand the effects of APE in obese female. Thus, we investigated the effect of APE on body weight, adiposity, exercise tolerance and glucose metabolism in female ob/ob mice. Eight-weeks-old female wild-type C57BL/6J and leptin-deficient ob/ob mice (Lepob) were distributed into three groups: wild-type sedentary group (Wt; n = 6), leptin-deficient sedentary group (LepobS; n = 5) and leptin-deficient trained group (LepobT; n = 8). The LepobT mice were subjected to 8 weeks of aerobic physical exercise (APE) at 60% of the maximum velocity achieved in the running capacity test. The APE had no effect in attenuating body weight gain, and did not reduce subcutaneous and retroperitoneal white adipose tissue (SC-WAT and RP-WAT, respectively) and interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT) weights. The APE neither improved glucose intolerance nor insulin resistance in the LepobT group. Also, the APE did not reduce the diameter or the area of RP-WAT adipocytes, but the APE reduced the diameter and the area of SC-WAT adipocytes, which was associated with lower fasting glycemia and islet/pancreas area ratio in the LepobT group. In addition, the APE increased exercise tolerance and this response was also associated with lower fasting glycemia in the LepobT group. In conclusion, starting APE at a later age with a more severe degree of obesity did not attenuate the excessive body weight gain, however the APE promoted benefits that can improve the female health, and for this reason it should be recommended as a non-pharmacological therapy for obesity.

Abstract
To extend initial results on the antineoplastic activity of alpha-1,3,5-triglycidyl-s-triazinetrione (TGT, NSC 296934), a novel triepoxidic derivative, this compound was tested in a series of murine transplantable tumors. Repeated daily treatments with well-tolerated systemic doses of this chemical produced substantial retardation in tumor growth and significant prolongation of survival in the line 16 mammary, M5067 ovarian, and Madison 109 lung carcinomas and in mFS6 fibrosarcoma. Very marked activity was also seen in the P815 mastocytoma, B16 melanoma, line 38 colon carcinoma, and an intracerebrally transplanted ependymoblastoma, with high proportions of cures after one or two injections in IP transplanted SL2 lymphoma and line 26 colon carcinoma. It is concluded that the high level of antineoplastic effectiveness and the wide spectrum of TGT activity together with its novel structural characteristics could be of clinical significance.
