Lipid exposure leads to metabolic dysfunction in fetal sheep cardiomyocytes
Abstract Fetal circulating lipids are low but rise precipitously following birth. It is unknown how prematurely elevated lipids affect the fetal heart, which primarily uses carbohydrates for energy. Fetal sheep were surgically instrumented and received Intralipid 20® or Lactated Ringer's Solution intravenously.

Fatty liver in familial hypobetalipoproteinemia: Triglyceride assembly into VLDL particles is affected by the extent of hepatic steatosis [PDF]
Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) subjects may develop fatty liver. Liver fat was assessed in 21 FHBL with six different apolipoprotein B (apoB) truncations (apoB-4 to apoB-89) and 14 controls by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS).

This study explored the relationship between dietary LA intake and PCOS. Animal experiments demonstrated that increased intake of LA led to PCOS‐like changes in mice, presenting with disordered estrous cycles, polycystic ovaries, and hyperandrogenism.

Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is the main cause of chronic liver disease. Baicalin (Bai), a bioactive molecule found in Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, possesses antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties. These activities suggest Bai could be a promising therapeutic agent against NAFLD; however, its specific ...

Preeclampsia is associated with compromized maternal synthesis of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids leading to offspring deficiency [PDF]
Obesity and excessive lipolysis are implicated in preeclampsia (PE). Intrauterine growth restriction is associated with low maternal body mass index and decreased lipolysis.

Variation of Meat Quality and Relationship to Gut Microbiota Among Different Pig Breeds
Our results indicated the quality of Jinhua pigs was superior to Duroc × Berkshire × Jiaxinghei pigs and Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire pigs, and the difference in meat quality was related to the abundance of fibre‐degrading bacteria. ABSTRACT Meat production is of great importance to the world's food supply and economic development, and meat quality ...

Saturated and monounsaturated acylcarnitines, particularly trans‐EC, exert significant cardiotoxic effects, primarily through the impairment of cardiac mitochondrial function. The omega‐3 PUFA‐derived acylcarnitines EPAC and DHAC are safe and less likely to damage cardiac mitochondria, cardiac cells, and the heart than other acylcarnitines.

The Role of Serum Free Fatty Acids in Endothelium‐Dependent Microvascular Function
At baseline, free fatty acid concentration and insulin sensitivity predicted insulin‐mediated vasodilation. Acipimox and salsalate reduced free fatty acid concentration, but did not change insulin sensitivity and there was no association between the change in free fatty acids and insulin‐mediated vasodilation.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Obesity is associated with diabetes; however, the dose–response association between body mass index (BMI) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the dose–response relationship between BMI and the risk of prediabetes and diabetes among adults.
