Identification of Novel Inhibitors of Dietary Lipid Absorption Using Zebrafish [PDF]
Pharmacological inhibition of dietary lipid absorption induces favorable changes in serum lipoprotein levels in patients that are at risk for cardiovascular disease and is considered an adjuvant or alternative treatment with HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (

Mechanical Regulation of Lipid and Sugar Absorption by Piezo1 in Enterocytes
Obesity is primarily caused by excessive intake as well as absorption of sugar and lipid. Postprandial surge in distention pressure and intestinal motility accelerates the absorption of nutrients. The response of intestinal epithelial cells to mechanical

FXR Activation Protects Against NAFLD via Bile-Acid-Dependent Reductions in Lipid Absorption [PDF]
FXR agonists are used to treat non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), in part because they reduce hepatic lipids. Here, we show that FXR activation with the FXR agonist GSK2324 controls hepatic lipids via reduced absorption and selective decreases in

Amentoflavone-Enriched Selaginella rossii Warb. Suppresses Body Weight and Hyperglycemia by Inhibiting Intestinal Lipid Absorption in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet. [PDF]
Many Selaginellaceae species are used as traditional medicines in Asia. This study is the first to investigate the anti-obesity and anti-diabetic effects of Selaginella rossii (SR) in high-fat diet (HFD)–fed C57BL/6J mice.

<i>B. vulgatus</i> ameliorates high-fat diet-induced obesity through modulating intestinal serotonin synthesis and lipid absorption in mice. [PDF]
The consumption of high-fat diets (HFD) and an imbalance in gut microbiome are linked to obesity. However, the intricate connection between them and the underlying mechanisms involved in lipid digestion and absorption remain largely unclear.

Fatty acid nitroalkenes regulate intestinal lipid absorption. [PDF]
Fatty acid nitroalkenes (NO2-FA) are tissue-protective and anti-inflammatory endogenous lipid mediators. A unique electrophilic character promotes reversible reactions with protein thiols, influencing key cellular functions. Given their generation during

Extracellular Vesicle-Encapsulated Small RNAs From Clostridium Butyricum Modulate Host Intestinal Lipid Metabolism. [PDF]
The gut microbiota plays a critical role in regulating intestinal lipid metabolism, yet the mechanisms governing microbiota–host interactions during lipid uptake remain unclear.
