Disruption of Hepatic Insulin Signaling Causes Phospholipid Dysregulation in Mice. [PDF]
Pan et al. demonstrate that disruption of hepatic insulin signaling by insulin receptor (IR) substrate (IRS1/2) deletion led to impaired PI3K‐AKT signaling, causing increased Foxo1 activation and TGF‐β1 expression, which dysregulated the expression of the key enzymes involving phospholipid biosynthesis and remodeling.

Understanding the dynamic nature of plant lipid anabolic and catabolic metabolism is key to sustainable oilseed engineering. [PDF]
Summary Plant‐derived oils are essential sources of reduced carbon and various fatty acid (FA) structures for food, biofuels, and the oleochemical industry. Despite extensive efforts, engineering mainstream oilseed crops to produce high levels of industrially valuable unusual FAs (UFAs) remains challenging.

Protein interactomes for plant lipid biosynthesis and their biotechnological applications
Summary Plant lipids have essential biological roles in plant development and stress responses through their functions in cell membrane formation, energy storage and signalling. Vegetable oil, which is composed mainly of the storage lipid triacylglycerol, also has important applications in food, biofuel and oleochemical industries.

Pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes and the impact of altered metabolic interorgan crosstalk
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex disease involving several tissues. Here, we explore how metabolites contribute to signaling between tissues (interorgan crosstalk). Metabolite signaling can be viewed as additional option to the well‐known hormones and organokines contributing to interorgan crosstalk.

Pyruvate transporter BnaBASS2 impacts seed oil accumulation in Brassica napus
Summary Bile acid: sodium symporter family protein 2 (BASS2) is a sodium‐dependent pyruvate transporter, which transports pyruvate from cytosol into plastid in plants. In this study, we investigated the function of chloroplast envelope membrane‐localized BnaBASS2 in seed metabolism and seed oil accumulation of Brassica napus (B. napus).

To systematically investigate the effects of different protein/energy (P/E) ratio diets on the microstructure and metabolic response of black sea bream liver, fish (initial weight 11.20 ± 0.20 g) were fed three isoenergetic (20.9 kJ/g) diets with varying protein/lipid levels (LR, 28.8% protein/26.3% lipid; MR, 37.5% protein/20.9% lipid; and HR, 42.8 ...

Abstract Phosphatidylcholine:diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferases (PDCT) regulate the fatty acid composition of seed oil (triacylglycerol, TAG) by interconversion of diacylglycerols (DAG) and phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho). PtdCho is the substrate for polyunsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis, as well as for a number of unusual fatty acids.

Summary Seed oil content (SOC) and fatty acid (FA) composition determine the quality and economic value of rapeseed (Brassica napus). Little is known about the role of gibberellic acid (GA) in regulating FA biosynthesis in B. napus. Here, we discovered that four BnaRGAs (B.

Accumulation and deposition of triacylglycerols in the starchy endosperm of wheat grain. [PDF]
A combination of lipidomics, transcriptomics and bioimaging has been used to study triacylglycerol synthesis and deposition in the developing starchy endosperm of wheat.
