Myristic acid potentiates palmitic acid-induced lipotoxicity and steatohepatitis associated with lipodystrophy by sustaning de novo ceramide synthesis. [PDF]

, 2015
Palmitic acid (PA) induces hepatocyte apoptosis and fuels de novo ceramide synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Myristic acid (MA), a free fatty acid highly abundant in copra/palmist oils, is a predictor of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and

Self‐Feeding of Engineered Tissues via Controlled Glucose Release Facilitates Survival and Vascularization of Living Implants

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineering living matter has great clinical potential to deliver functional replacement organs. However, clinical translation remains hampered by the current inability to maintain viability of clinically relevant‐sized constructs. During the pre‐vascular phase, implants rely on nutrient diffusion for survival, which is insufficient at ...

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

Amylose-lipid complex as a measure of variations in physical, mechanical and barrier attributes of rice starch- ι -carrageenan biodegradable edible film [PDF]

, 2017
Improvements in the hygroscopic properties of starch based films are important to strengthen their mechanical properties. The effects of different hydrophobic components-butyric acid (BA, C4:0), lauric acid (LA, C12:0), palmitic acid (PA, C16:0), oleic ...

Possible involvement of proteolytic degradation of tyrosinase in the regulatory effect of fatty acids on melanogenesis

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of fatty acid-induced regulation of melanogenesis. An apparent regulatory effect on melanogenesis was observed when cultured B16F10 melanoma cells were incubated with fatty acids, i.e., linoleic ...

Preparation of photothermal palmitic acid/cholesterol liposomes

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, 2018
AbstractIndocyanine green (ICG) is the only FDA‐approved near‐infrared dye and it is currently used clinically for diagnostic applications. However, there is significant interest in using ICG for triggered drug delivery applications and heat ablation therapy. Unfortunately, free ICG has a short half‐life in vivo and is rapidly cleared from circulation.

LDI, A Lipid Droplet Inhibitor, Disrupts Lipid Accumulation and Modulates Hepatic Lipid Profiles in Fatty Liver

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The lipid droplet inhibitor (LDI), templated with large‐pore mesoporous silica and functionalized with PKCα C1A and lipase, targets lipid degradation in fatty liver. The LDI maintains stable association with lipid droplets, thereby suppressing their formation and expansion.
