Early effects of feeding excess vitamin A: mechanism of fatty liver production in rats

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1969
Oral administration of vitamin A (30,000 IU daily for 2 days) to young rats caused a marked increase in hepatic glycogen, cholesterol, and glycerides, while hepatic phospholipid content remained almost unaltered.In an examination of the pathogenesis of ...

Temperature affects the use of storage fatty acids as energy source in a benthic copepod (Platychelipus littoralis, Harpacticoida) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The utilization of storage lipids and their associated fatty acids (FA) is an important means for organisms to cope with periods of food shortage, however, little is known about the dynamics and FA mobilization in benthic copepods (order Harpacticoida ...

Diacylglycerol transport in the insect fat body: evidence of involvement of lipid droplets and the cytosolic fraction

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
In this report we show the existence of a distinct pool of fat body diacylglycerol (DG) that can be distinguished from the bulk DG. This is a dynamic pool of DG that uses FA entering the fat body from the hemolymph, whereas the bulk DG uses the fatty ...

Preeclampsia is associated with compromized maternal synthesis of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids leading to offspring deficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Obesity and excessive lipolysis are implicated in preeclampsia (PE). Intrauterine growth restriction is associated with low maternal body mass index and decreased lipolysis.

Lipid Mobilization in Parturient Cows

open access: yesActa Veterinaria Scandinavica, 1975
The blood levels of calcium, inorganic phosphorus, magnesium, glucose and NEFA were studied in cows at the time around partus. Eight of 16 cows developed hypocalcaemic paresis. Besides hypocalcaemia the paretic cows showed lower levels of inorganic phosphorus and higher levels of glucose and NEFA than non-paretic cows 24 hrs. post partum.

Metabolic crosstalk: molecular links between glycogen and lipid metabolism in obesity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glycogen and lipids are major storage forms of energy that are tightly regulated by hormones and metabolic signals. We demonstrate that feeding mice a high-fat diet (HFD) increases hepatic glycogen due to increased expression of the glycogenic ...

Hormone-sensitive lipase expression and activity in relation to lipolysis in human fat cells

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in adipocyte lipolysis. The activity of HSL is thought to be primarily regulated by reversible phosphorylation.

The role of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Due to the epidemic of obesity across the world, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become one of the most prevalent chronic liver disorders in children and adolescents.

Calcium and cAMP are second messengers in the adipokinetic hormone-induced lipolysis of triacylglycerols in Manduca sexta fat body

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
We have previously shown that stereospecific hydrolysis of stored triacylglycerol by a phosphorylatable triacylglycerol-lipase is the pathway for the adipokinetic hormone-stimulated synthesis of sn-1, 2-diacylglycerol in insect fat body.

Fibroblast Growth Factor-10 (FGF-10) Mobilizes Lung-resident Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Protects Against Acute Lung Injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
FGF-10 can prevent or reduce lung specific inflammation due to traumatic or infectious lung injury. However, the exact mechanisms are poorly characterized.
