Apigenin attenuates atherosclerosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease through inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Apigenin (APN), a flavone found in several plant foods with various biological properties such as anti-obesity, anti-inflammation and other abilities, alleviates atherosclerosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) induced by a high fat diet ...

Human resistin promotes macrophage lipid accumulation [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetologia, 2006
The gene encoding resistin/FIZZ3 (found in inflammatory zone 3), which is denoted by the gene symbol RETN in humans and Retn in mice, belongs to a new gene family of small cysteine-rich secretory proteins, called ‘resistin-like molecules’, originally discovered in a search for adipocytederived molecules linking obesity and insulin-resistant diabetes [1]

Antioxidant Clove Extract Inhibits Lipid Droplet Accumulation and Lipid Oxidation in Hepatocytes

open access: yes
Background: Recent studies have shown that plant-based dietary extracts can prevent the formation of lipid droplets (LDs) and oxidized lipid droplets (oxLDs) in liver cells.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Ecological optimization of biomass and lipid production by microalgae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Microalgae have higher growth rates and higher lipid content than terrestrial plants and the yield per unit area is even higher by several orders of magnitude.

Sulforaphane ameliorates bisphenol A-induced hepatic lipid accumulation by inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in bisphenol A (BPA) – induced hepatic lipid accumulation as well as the protective effects of Sulforaphane (SFN) in this process.

The microbiome in human skin aging

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐related skin changes encompass the well‐known visible phenotypic alterations, together with microbiome dysbiosis and a series of molecular aging hallmarks. These hallmarks characterize not only a fully stablished aged phenotype but also the skin aging process itself.

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

Do GLP-1 receptor agonists improve insulin sensitivity and reduce lipid accumulation in skeletal muscles and the liver independent of weight loss?

open access: yesEndokrynologia Polska
Increased body mass index and excessive lipid accumulation are associated with enhanced production of toxic lipid species and impairedoxidation of free fatty acids (FFAs), a phenomenon defined as lipotoxicity.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.
