ATP Citrate Lyase in Metabolic Disease: Mechanistic Insights and Clinical Potential

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is a central metabolic hub that diverts mitochondrial citrate to fuel de novo lipogenesis, cholesterol biosynthesis, and protein acetylation. Given its robust correlation with pathological changes in multiple human diseases, ACLY inhibitors featuring distinct pharmacological strengths have been developed for therapeutic ...

Biochemical and Molecular Insights Into Monocrotaline‐Induced Hepatotoxicity: An Experimental Mouse Study

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monocrotaline (MCT), a plant‐derived pyrrolizidine alkaloid, is well known for its hepatotoxic effects. However, full elucidation of the mechanisms underlying MCT‐induced hepatotoxicity, as well as the development of reliable biomarkers for early detection and monitoring, requires an integrated evaluation of biochemical, molecular, and ...

Familial hypercholesterolemia: A review

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2014
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder of lipoprotein metabolism resulting in elevated serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels leading to increased risk for premature cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

Severity of periodontitis and risk of ischemic stroke: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a prevalent chronic inflammatory disease with a systemic inflammatory burden and is implicated with vascular pathology. This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluates the association between varying severities of periodontitis and ischemic stroke with various diagnostic criteria.

Establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line from a patient with familial hypercholesterolemia carrying a frameshift mutation in LDLR gene

Stem Cell Research
Familial hypercholesterolemia is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder that often leads to abnormally high cholesterol levels in the body, which is closely related to early-onset coronary heart disease.

PREVALENCE OF FAMILIAL HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA IN INDIVIDUALS WITH PREMATURE CORONARY SYNDROME

, 2015
Premature coronary heart disease is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. A major risk factor for coronary artery disease is hypercholesterolemia, i.e. high serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels.

The safe and effective use of tofacitinib and ustekinumab combination therapy in infantile onset inflammatory bowel disease

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile‐onset inflammatory bowel disease (IOIBD) is a rare and severe subset of very‐early‐onset IBD, often associated with immune dysregulation and poor response to conventional therapies. Data regarding the use of Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKI) in this population is limited.

Similar content of phospholipids and gangliosides in normal and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia fibroblasts.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1978
The cellular content of total and individual phospholipids and gangliosides was measured in fibroblasts cultured from four normal subjects, three patients with lysosomal lipid storage diseases, and two subjects with homozygous familial ...

Targeted genetic testing for familial hypercholesterolaemia using next generation sequencing:a population-based study [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a common Mendelian condition which, untreated, results in premature coronary heart disease. An estimated 88% of FH cases are undiagnosed in the UK.

A rare diagnosis during evaluation for metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease: Glycogen storage disease type Ia presenting during adolescence in a male with severe obesity

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a common comorbidity of pediatric obesity that predisposes patients to hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs). HCAs however are nonspecific to MASLD and warrant further evaluation. We present a case of a 16‐year‐old male with severe obesity, and persistently elevated liver enzymes ...
