Inhibition of Calcium Influx Reduces Dysfunction and Apoptosis in Lipotoxic Pancreatic β-Cells via Regulation of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Lipotoxicity plays an important role in pancreatic β-cell failure during the development of type 2 diabetes. Prolonged exposure of β-cells to elevated free fatty acids level could cause deterioration of β-cell function and induce cell apoptosis ...

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021 Soybean (Glycine max) oil is one of the most widely used vegetable oils across the world. Breeding of soybean to reduce the saturated fatty acid (FA) content, which is linked to cardiovascular disease, would be of great significance for nutritional ...

Role of palmitic acid on the isolation and properties of halorhodopsin
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1996 Purified halorhodopsin was isolated from Halobacterium halobium as previously described (Duschl, A. et al. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 17016-17022). Two purple bands were eluted from phenyl-Sepharose column, indicating the presence of differently retained halorhodopsin forms; the absorption spectra of the two halorhodopsin bands in the dark were not ...

A Mutant of Arabidopsis Deficient in the Elongation of Palmitic Acid [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1994 The overall fatty acid composition of leaf lipids in a mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana was characterized by an increased level of 16:0 and a concomitant decrease of 18-carbon fatty acids as a consequence of a single recessive nuclear mutation at the fab1 locus.

The Short Overview on the Relevance of Fatty Acids for Human Cardiovascular Disorders
Biomolecules, 2020 This review presents existing evidence of the influence of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids on cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Data are discussed regarding the roles of the most relevant fatty acids, such as myristic (C14:0), palmitic (C16:0 ...

Animal‐Free Setup of a 3D Mature Adipocyte‐Macrophage Co‐Culture to Induce Inflammation In Vitro
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A completely animal‐free 3D co‐culture is developed using human fat cells and immune cells. Animal‐based materials are replaced with gellan gum hydrogel and a serum‐free medium. Immune cells are effectively activated, producing specific inflammatory signals.
