Lipid Accumulation and Chronic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Nutrients, 2019 Obesity and hyperlipidemia are the most prevalent independent risk factors of chronic kidney disease (CKD), suggesting that lipid accumulation in the renal parenchyma is detrimental to renal function. Non-esterified fatty acids (also known as free fatty acids, FFA) are especially harmful to the kidneys. A concerted, increased FFA uptake due to high fat

Tumour-driven lipid accumulation in oenocytes reflects systemic lipid alterations. [PDF]
PLoS GeneticsCancer cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome characterized by systemic metabolic dysfunction, including liver steatosis. In this study, we examined the role of larval oenocytes - hepatocyte-like cells, in a Drosophila model of cancer cachexia.

Lutein Attenuates Lipid Accumulation in Association with TFEB Nuclear Translocation and Autophagy–Lysosomal Responses in a Cellular Model of Hepatic Steatosis [PDF]
AntioxidantsLutein is a dietary xanthophyll carotenoid valued for its antioxidant properties that has been shown to benefit liver health and reduce hepatic lipid accumulation; however, this lipid-lowering effect cannot be fully attributed to its antioxidant activity,

Oxysterol undersulfation promotes osteoarthritis by fueling chondrocyte lipid accumulation [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsOsteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease with no curative treatments and a poorly understood etiology. Here, we report that defective sulfation, a largely underexplored chemical modification of lipid metabolites, drives pathogenic lipid

The effect of chitooligosaccharides on oleic acid-induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells
Saudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2016 This experiment aimed to evaluate the capacities of two types of chitooligosaccharides (COS) with different molecular weights for the ability to eliminate lipid accumulation in hepatocytes.

Astrocytes in stress accumulate lipid droplets [PDF]
Glia, 2021 AbstractWhen the brain is in a pathological state, the content of lipid droplets (LDs), the lipid storage organelles, is increased, particularly in glial cells, but rarely in neurons. The biology and mechanisms leading to LD accumulation in astrocytes, glial cells with key homeostatic functions, are poorly understood.

Lipid metabolism and accumulation in oilseed crops [PDF]
OCL, 2021 Triacylglycerols (TAGs) serve as the most important storage form of energy and carbon in eukaryotic cells and thus are one of the fundamental macronutrients for animal and human diet. They are also used as a major feedstock for diverse industrial and energetic sectors due to their high energy density. Oilseed crops represent the most valuable source of
