Effects of dietary fatty acids and cholesterol excess on liver injury: A lipidomic approach
Lipid accumulation is the hallmark of Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and has been suggested to play a role in promoting fatty liver inflammation. Previous findings indicate that during oxidative stress conditions excess cholesterol autoxidizes

ABSTRACT Introduction Systemic cervical cancer management continues to be challenging. Numerous chemotherapies have been approved, but predicting response is difficult due to the lack of biomarkers. Here, we analyze the genetic and protein profiles of 20 cervical cancer cell lines (CCCLs) and explore their correlation with drug response patterns to ...

Dietary habits may strongly influence intestinal homeostasis. Oxysterols, the oxidized products of cholesterol present in cholesterol-containing foodstuffs, have been shown to exert pro-oxidant and pro-inflammatory effects, altering intestinal epithelial

Oxysterols possess powerful biological activities. Some of their effects on the regulation of key enzymes are similar to those of cholesterol, but are much more potent.

TREM2hi microglia and macrophages exert distinct roles in neurological diseases. Enhancing TREM2 signalling supports pathological protein or debris clearance and mitigates inflammation in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, demyelination disorders and stroke, whereas blocking TREM2 may alleviate tauopathy and ...

Oxysterols in intestinal immunity and inflammation [PDF]
AbstractCholesterol is an essential molecule for life. It is a component of the cell membrane, and it is a precursor molecule for bile acids, vitamin D and steroid hormones. Cholesterol is actively metabolized, but the impact of endogenous cholesterol metabolites on immune function, especially in the intestine, is poorly understood.

ABSTRACT Steroid‐mediated maternal effects are well‐studied as a source of phenotypic variation. In bird eggs, the yolk contains various steroids that can influence embryonic development. However, one complicating factor in understanding how yolk steroids affect development is that the embryo metabolizes yolk steroids to regulate exposure.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a gradually debilitating disease that leads to dementia. The molecular mechanisms underlying AD are still not clear, and at present no reliable biomarkers are available for the early diagnosis.

APOE is widely recognized for its role in neurodegeneration and cardiovascular disease, but its different genotypes also influence body composition, affecting obesity, bone density, and muscle mass, through their central role in lipid transport and metabolism.

Perturbed cholesterol metabolism may play an important role in the development of dementia and its preclinical stage, mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Oxysterols, the metabolites generated during cholesterol oxidation, also appear to be risk factors for ...
