Cannabidiol and cannabigerol ameliorate steatotic liver disease via phosphocreatine buffering and lysosomal restoration

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...

Nanoparticle-based siRNA Delivery System in Intestine Empowers the Obesity Management

Nano Biomedicine and Engineering
We highlighted a poly lactic acid-co-glycolic acid (PLGA)-block-polyethylene glycol (PEG) and chitosan-based nanoparticle system to deliver sterol O-acyltransferase 2 (SOAT2) siRNAs into the small intestines of mice to effectively inhibit lipid uptake ...

Sterol-O acyltransferase 1 is inhibited by gga-miR-181a-5p and gga-miR-429-3p through the TGFβ pathway in endodermal epithelial cells of Japanese quail

bioRxiv, 2019
Nutrients are utilized and re-constructed by endodermal epithelial cells (EECs) in yolk sac membranes in avian species. Sterol-O acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) is the key enzyme to convert cholesterol to cholesteryl ester for delivery to growing embryos ...

Growth differentiation factor 15 mitigates lipotoxic steatosis by preserving mitochondrial morphodynamics and augmenting fatty acid oxidation in hepatocytes and liver organoids

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) has emerged as a promising metabolic regulator with hepatoprotective properties in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), yet its underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Opposing roles of DGAT‐mediated lipid droplet biogenesis in the regulation of ferroptosis sensitivity

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ferroptosis is driven by unrestricted peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acyl (PUFA) chains in membrane phospholipids. In triple‐negative breast cancer cells, lipid droplets (LDs) sequester dietary PUFAs, limiting their incorporation into membrane phospholipids, preventing mitochondrial damage, and reducing lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis–meiosis transition stage in wild‐caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high‐water temperature in the English Channel

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...

Reprogramming SREBP1‐dependent lipogenesis and inflammation in high‐risk breast with licochalcone A: A novel path to cancer prevention

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 7, Page 1927-1940, 1 April 2026.
What's new? Endocrine drugs repurposed from treatment protocols are the primary medications available for breast cancer (BC) prevention in at‐risk women. Adverse effects, however, significantly minimize uptake and prevention impact. Here, the authors investigated licochalcone A (LicA), a non‐endocrine anti‐inflammatory agent with reported hematologic ...

Identification of Soat1 as a quantitative trait locus gene on mouse chromosome 1 contributing to hyperlipidemia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
We previously identified two closely linked quantitative trait loci (QTL) on distal chromosome 1 contributing to major variations in plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels in an intercross derived from C57BL/6 (B6) and C3H/HeJ (C3H) apolipoprotein E ...

Impaired Adipose Anabolism in Pancreatic Cancer Cachexia Is Reversed by HuR Inhibition

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cachexia is defined by chronic loss of fat and muscle, is a frequent complication of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and negatively impacts patient outcomes. Nutritional supplementation cannot fully reverse tissue wasting, and the mechanisms underlying this phenotype are unclear.

ACAT1/SOAT1 maintains adipogenic ability in preadipocytes by regulating cholesterol homeostasis

Journal of Lipid Research
Maintaining cholesterol homeostasis is critical for preserving adipocyte function during the progression of obesity. Despite this, the regulatory role of cholesterol esterification in governing adipocyte expandability has been understudied. Acyl-coenzyme
