Overexpression of SCAP inhibits autophagy and promotes lipid accumulation in vascular smooth muscle cells

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2022
Objective To determine the effect of sterol regulatory element binding proteins cleavage activating protein (SCAP) on foam cell formation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Methods LV-SCAP were constructed with LV-SCAP, and LV-Control group served

Label-free metabolic imaging of non-alcoholic-fatty-liver-disease (NAFLD) liver by volumetric dynamic optical coherence tomography [PDF]

open access: yesBiomed. Opt. Express 13 (2022) 4071-4086, 2022
Label-free metabolic imaging of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) mouse liver is demonstrated ex vivo by dynamic optical coherence tomography (OCT). The NAFLD mouse is a methionine choline-deficient (MCD)-diet model, and two mice fed MCD diet for 1 and 2 weeks are involved in addition to a normal-diet mouse.

First Case Report of Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Showing Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia Induced by Thyroid Storm due to Graves’ Disease

open access: yesCase Reports in Endocrinology, 2022
A 48-year-old man who was diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) due to a plakophilin 2 gene mutation developed acute both-sided heart failure with rapid atrial fibrillation and was hospitalized.

Efficacy of visceral fat estimation by dual bioelectrical impedance analysis in detecting cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2019
Background Visceral fat area (VFA) is a good surrogate marker of obesity-related disorders, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia and glucose intolerance.

Increased peripheral lipid clearance in an animal model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Lipid Research 48, 7 (07/2007) 1571-1580, 2007
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common adult motor neuron disease, causing motor neuron degeneration, muscle atrophy, paralysis, and death. Despite this degenerative process, a stable hypermetabolic state has been observed in a large subset of patients.

A model of membrane deformations driven by a surface pH gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Many cellular organelles are membrane-bound structures with complex membrane composition and shape. Their shapes have been observed to depend on the metabolic state of the organelle, and the mechanisms that couple biochemical pathways and membrane shape are still actively investigated.

The association of soluble cluster of differentiation 36 with metabolic diseases: A potential biomarker and therapeutic target

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, 2023
A cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36), also known as fatty acid translocase, plays an important role in developing and progressing metabolic diseases. Soluble CD36 (sCD36), a circulating form of CD36, is identified in human plasma.

Recent advances in label-free imaging and quantification techniques for the study of lipid droplets in cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Lipid droplets (LDs), once considered mere storage depots for lipids, have gained recognition for their intricate roles in cellular processes, including metabolism, membrane trafficking, and disease states like obesity and cancer. This review explores label-free imaging techniques' applications in LD research.

Polysaccharide CM1 from Cordyceps militaris hinders adipocyte differentiation and alleviates hyperlipidemia in LDLR (+/−) hamsters

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2021
Background Cordyceps militaris is cultured widely as an edible mushroom and accumulating evidence in mice have demonstrated that the polysaccharides of Cordyceps species have lipid-lowering effects.

A whole-body multi-scale mathematical model for dynamic simulation of the metabolism in man [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
We propose a whole-body model of the metabolism in man as well as a generalized approach for modeling metabolic networks. Using this approach, we are able to write a large metabolic network in a systematic and compact way. We demonstrate the approach using a whole-body model of the metabolism of the three macronutrients, carbohydrates, proteins and ...
