Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

Sphingolipids as emerging mediators in retina degeneration [PDF]

, 2019
The sphingolipids ceramide (Cer), sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), sphingosine (Sph), and ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) are key signaling molecules that regulate major cellular functions.

Docosahexaenoic acid: membrane modification and neurotrophic mechanisms

Oléagineux, Corps gras, Lipides, 2011
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3) is highly enriched in the brain mainly in membrane phospholipids. Maintenance of a high DHA concentration in brain is essential for proper neuronal function, suggesting a unique requirement of this fatty acid for an ...

Diet transition to a high-fat diet for 3 weeks reduces brain omega-3-fatty acid levels, alters BDNF signaling and induces anxiety & depression-like behavior in adult rats [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The consumption of diets high in calories and low in nutrient value is becoming increasingly common in modern society, which can lead to metabolic disorders like diabetes and obesity, and potentially to psychiatric disorders.

Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.

Fish oil (n-3 fatty acids) in drug resistant epilepsy: a randomised placebo-controlled crossover study. [PDF]

, 2014
Backgroundn-3 fatty acids inhibit neuronal excitability and reduce seizures in animal models. High-dose fish oil has been explored in two randomised trials in drug resistant epilepsy with negative results.

Amyloid‐β aggregates induce vasculopathy via ferroptosis in brain endothelial cells

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption is evident in brains with amyloidopathy. In this study, we demonstrate that amyloid β (Aβ) drives abnormal lipid metabolism and lipid droplet formation in brain endothelial cells, leading to lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Rapeseeds a Rich Source of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids

Proceedings, 2019
In human diet, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), have an essential role in optimal brain functions and stroke prevention, specially, omega-3 fatty acids, e.g., 9,12,15-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3), 5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5), and 4,7 ...
