Previous studies have shown that medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCTs) exert favorable effects on protein metabolism. This study evaluated the effects of the dietary intake of MCTs on rat skeletal muscle mass and total protein content during casting-induced hindlimb immobilization, which causes
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is associated with an increased incidence of bacterial translocation (BT) compared with enteral nutrition because of the disuse atrophy of the intestine. In this study, we assessed the effect of adding medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCT) to TPN for the prevention of
The combination of sarcopenia and obesity (i.e., sarcopenic obesity) is more strongly associated with disability and metabolic/cardiovascular diseases than obesity or sarcopenia alone. Therefore, countermeasures that simultaneously suppress fat gain and muscle atrophy to prevent an increase in
Background Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a major cause of severe visual loss in elderly people. The treatments for dry AMD (dAMD) are severely limited so far. In this work, we aim to develop an eye drop to protect retinal functions against oxidative stress and apoptosis for improving
Membranes of muscle foods are more susceptible to oxidation than triacylglycerols. Hence, directing a lipid-soluble antioxidant into the membranes may reduce the oxidative deterioration of muscle tissue. The objective of this research was to use a model system of cod muscle and triacylglycerol to
Enteral nutrition (EN) containing part of the energy substrates in the form of triacylglycerols with medium chain fatty acids (MCT) has a number of advantages in particular in patients with an impaired utilization of energy and impaired nutrient absorption from the small intestine. The increased MCT
Seeds with 'intermediate' storage physiology store poorly under cold and dry conditions. We tested whether the poor shelf life can be attributed to triacylglycerol phase changes using Cuphea carthagenensis (Jacq.) seeds. Viability remained high when seeds were stored at 25 degrees C, but was lost
OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence and features of fatty liver disease in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA).
METHODS
Two groups of participants with SBMA were evaluated. In the first group, 22 participants with SBMA underwent laboratory analysis and liver imaging. In the second group, 14
Fresh shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) deteriorates easily, and the drying process is an important processing method to prolong the shelf life of shrimp. The traditional drying method is hot-air-drying (HD), which can cause some problems such as nutrient loss, discoloration, and lipid Aspergillus oryzae produces at least three extracellular lipolytic enzymes, L1, L2 and L3 (cutinase, mono- and diacylglycerol lipase, and triacylglycerol lipase, respectively). We cloned the triacylglycerol lipase gene (provisionally designated tglA) by screening a genomic library using a PCR
We tested whether infusion of medium-chain triacylglycerols (MCTs) during total parenteral nutrition (TPN) enhanced macrophage response and reduced intestinal atrophy compared with long-chain triacylglycerols (LCTs). Male Sprague-Dawley rats (230-240 g) were maintained with TPN providing 16% or 48%
We have previously reported a unique disorder in two brothers with multi-system neuronal degeneration, hepatosplenomegaly and adrenocortical deficiency. The clinical features were different from Refsum's disease. Biochemical analysis suggested that a metabolic defect of the omega 6 polyenoic fatty
OBJECTIVE
Hypoadiponectinaemia and raised C-reactive protein (CRP) level are obesity-related biomarkers associated with glucose dysregulation. We evaluated the combined use of these two biomarkers in predicting the deterioration of glycaemia in a prospective study after a median of 5.4
Fatty liver is one of the typical manifestations in homocysteinemia/homocystinuria patients and their genetic animal model, mice lacking cystathionine β-synthase (Cbs(-/-)). The vast majority of Cbs(-/-) die within 4 weeks after birth via yet unknown mechanisms, whereas a small portion survive to
This study compared the effects of soybean oil- versus olive oil-based lipid emulsions on hepatobiliary function and serum triacylglycerols in patients who required transient parenteral nutrition support for significant weight loss. Patients who received a parenteral ready-to-use industry admixture
