Polyunsaturated Phospholipids Increase Cell Resilience to Mechanical Constraints
If polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are generally accepted to be good for health, the mechanisms of their bona fide benefits still remain elusive. Membrane phospholipids (PLs) of the cardiovascular system and skeletal muscles are particularly enriched

Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is a rare form of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) occurring in a heritable form (hPVOD) due to biallelic inactivating mutations of EIF2AK4 (encoding GCN2, general control nonderepressible 2) or in a sporadic ...

Identification of Lipid Biomarkers for Chronic Joint Pain Associated with Different Joint Diseases
Lipids, especially lysophosphatidylcholine LPC16:0, have been shown to be involved in chronic joint pain through the activation of acid-sensing ion channels (ASIC3).

Lipotoxic Proximal Tubular Injury: A Primary Event in Diabetic Kidney Disease
The pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy is a complex process that has a great relationship with lipotoxicity. Since the concept of “nephrotoxicity” was proposed, many studies have confirmed that lipotoxicity plays a significant role in the progression ...

The macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) expressed in hepatocytes can limit steatosis during obesity. Lipotoxicity in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is mediated in part by the activation of the stress kinase JNK, but whether MIF modulates JNK ...

Lipotoxicity-induced STING1 activation stimulates MTORC1 and restricts hepatic lipophagy
Lipid accumulation often leads to lipotoxic injuries to hepatocytes, which can cause nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. The association of inflammation with lipid accumulation in liver tissue has been studied for decades; however, key mechanisms have been ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction and lipotoxicity [PDF]
Mitochondrial dysfunction in skeletal muscle has been suggested to underlie the development of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Reduced mitochondrial capacity will contribute to the accumulation of lipid intermediates, desensitizing insulin signaling and leading to insulin resistance.

Background Lipotoxicity-induced cell death plays a detrimental role in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases. Ferulic acid, widespread in plant-based food, is a radical scavenger with multiple bioactivities. However, the benefits of ferulic acid against

Oxidative stress, a hallmark pathophysiological feature in diabetic kidney disease (DKD), arises from the intricate interplay between pro-oxidants and anti-oxidants. While hyperglycemia has been well established as a key contributor, lipotoxicity emerges
