Microsomes, Microsomal Phospholipids, and Fatty Acid Synthesis
Abstract The effect of microsomes on fatty acid synthesis by the soluble fraction of rat liver cells has been studied. It was shown that the microsomes contain a heat-labile inhibitory factor, presumably ATPase, and a heat-stable stimulatory factor.

Abstract Background and Aims Peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor α (PPARα) regulates fatty acid transport and catabolism in liver. However, the role of intestinal PPARα in lipid homeostasis is largely unknown. Here, intestinal PPARα was examined for its modulation of obesity and NASH. Approach and Results Intestinal PPARα was activated and fatty
