Peroxisomal-mitochondrial oxidation in a rodent model of obesity-associated insulin resistance.

Only registered users can translate articles

Peroxisomal oxidation yields metabolites that are more efficiently utilized by mitochondria. This is of potential clinical importance because reduced fatty acid oxidation is suspected to promote excess lipid accumulation in obesity-associated insulin resistance. Our purpose was to assess peroxisomal

Association Between Genetic Variants in FADS1-FADS2 and ELOVL2 and Obesity, Lipid Traits, and Fatty Acids in Tunisian Population

The aim of this study was to determine whether genetic variants in FADS1/FADS2 and ELOVL2 are associated with overweight-obesity and body mass index (BMI) and to assess the association between these genetic variants and lipid profile and fatty acid levels. A total of 259 overweight-obese patients

Serum sphingolipid level in psoriatic patients with obesity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with metabolic syndrome, including obesity. Ceramides (CER) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), which belongs to sphingolipids, have both biological and structural functions in the human epidermis.To

Increased serum concentration of ceramides in obese children with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

BACKGROUND Hepatic lipid accumulation is closely related to the development of insulin resistance, which is regarded as one of the most significant risk factors of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Although the exact molecular pathway leading to impaired insulin signaling has not been

Adipocyte-specific inactivation of Acyl-CoA synthetase fatty acid transport protein 4 (Fatp4) in mice causes adipose hypertrophy and alterations in metabolism of complex lipids under high fat diet.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fatp4 exhibits acyl-CoA synthetase activity and is thereby able to catalyze the activation of fatty acids for further metabolism. However, its actual function in most tissues remains unresolved, and its role in cellular fatty acid uptake is still controversial. To characterize Fatp4 functions in

Insulin resistance, inflammation, and serum fatty acid composition.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Fatty acids (FAs) have been involved in the development of chronic inflammatory conditions such as insulin resistance and obesity. However, the relation among insulin resistance, obesity, inflammatory activity (circulating interleukin [IL]-6) and dietary FAs has been scarcely studied in
