Insulin decreases plasma cholesteryl ester transfer but not cholesterol esterification in healthy subjects as well as in normotriglyceridaemic patients with type 2 diabetes [PDF]
Background. Plasma cholesterol esterification (EST) and subsequent cholesteryl ester transfer (CET) from high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) towards apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoproteins are key steps in HDL metabolism. Materials and methods.

Circulating Non-Esterified Fatty Acids as Biomarkers for Fat Content and Composition in Pigs
Circulating non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) can reflect the composition of dietary fat or adipose tissues depending on the fasting conditions. Therefore, circulating NEFA may be valuable as biomarkers for meat quality traits, such as intramuscular fat ...

A 4-wk high-fructose diet alters lipid metabolism without affecting insulin sensitivity or ectopic lipids in healthy humans [PDF]
BACKGROUND: High fructose consumption is suspected to be causally linked to the epidemics of obesity and metabolic disorders. In rodents, fructose leads to insulin resistance and ectopic lipid deposition.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the relationship between metabolic disease, milk fatty acid composition, and rumination time in early lactation dairy cows and evaluated their utility as diagnostic indicators. Twenty‐two Holstein dairy cows were monitored for 8 weeks postpartum, with weekly milk and blood sampling and continuous rumination monitoring ...

Summary Plant lipid droplets (LDs) and their associated proteins have numerous subcellular and physiological functions. While considerable progress has been made for LDs in many tissues, the function and composition of LDs in roots remain largely unexplored.

Aims The study is aimed at identifying the shared metabolites in early‐mid pregnancy associated with prepregnancy body mass index (pBMI) and subsequent gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk and at exploring the mediating role of metabolites. Methods One hundred pregnant women with GDM and 100 matched controls were enrolled in the study.

Plasma acylcarnitine profiling indicates increased fatty acid oxidation relative to tricarboxylic acid cycle capacity in young, healthy low birth weight men [PDF]
We hypothesized that an increased, incomplete fatty acid beta‐oxidation in mitochondria could be part of the metabolic events leading to insulin resistance and thereby an increased type 2 diabetes risk in low birth weight (LBW) compared with normal birth

Background Butterfly pea flowers (Clitoria ternatea L.) and lemon fruits (Citrus limon) are rich in phytochemicals and have shown potential anti‐obesity effects. However, the combination of these two medicinal plants as an herbal beverage has not been extensively studied. Objective This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an herbal beverage composed
