A Synergistic Genetic Engineering Strategy Induced Triacylglycerol Accumulation in Potato (Solanum tuberosum) Leaf

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Potato is the 4th largest staple food in the world currently. As a high biomass crop, potato harbors excellent potential to produce energy-rich compounds such as triacylglycerol as a valuable co-product. We have previously reported that transgenic potato

Human Brain Lipidomics: Investigation of Formalin Fixed Brains

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Human brain lipidomics have elucidated structural lipids and lipid signal transduction pathways in neurologic diseases. Such studies have traditionally sourced tissue exclusively from brain bank biorepositories, however, limited inventories signal that ...

Metabolic effects of diets differing in glycaemic index depend on age and endogenous GIP [PDF]

, 2009
Aims/hypothesis High- vs low-glycaemic index (GI) diets unfavourably affect body fat mass and metabolic markers in rodents. Different effects of these diets could be age-dependent, as well as mediated, in part, by carbohydrate-induced stimulation of ...

Erythropoietin modulates hepatic inflammation, glucose homeostasis, and soluble epoxide hydrolase and epoxides in high‐fat diet‐induced obese mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Erythropoietin administration suppresses hepatic soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) expression, leading to increased CYP‐derived epoxides. This is associated with a shift in hepatic macrophage polarization characterized by reduced M1 markers and increased M2 markers, along with reduced hepatic inflammation, suppressed hepatic lipogenesis, and attenuated ...

Deficiency of MGAT2 increases energy expenditure without high-fat feeding and protects genetically obese mice from excessive weight gain

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
Acyl CoA:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (MGAT2) is thought to be crucial for dietary fat absorption. Indeed, mice lacking the enzyme (Mogat2−/−) are resistant to obesity and other metabolic disorders induced by high-fat feeding.

Higher Genetically Predicted Triglycerides, LDL, and HDL Increase the Vitamin D Deficiency: A Mendelian Randomization Study

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
IntroductionIt has been proven that high body mass index (BMI) levels can cause vitamin D deficiency, but the mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, this study attempts to explain this phenomenon from the perspective of blood lipid by using mendelian ...

Intestinal triacylglycerol synthesis in fat absorption and systemic energy metabolism

Journal of Lipid Research, 2015
The intestine plays a prominent role in the biosynthesis of triacylglycerol (triglyceride; TAG). Digested dietary TAG is repackaged in the intestine to form the hydrophobic core of chylomicrons, which deliver metabolic fuels, essential fatty acids, and ...

Phosphatidic Acid‐TRIM59‐Olig2 Signaling Couples Metabolic Dysfunction to Myelination Failure in PWMI

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PA accumulates after hypoxic‐ischemic injury and stabilizes the E3 ligase TRIM59 in OPCs. Stabilized TRIM59 enhances ubiquitination and degradation of Olig2, blocking differentiation and causing hypomyelination in PWMI. Modulating PA synthesis restores Olig2 levels, improves myelination, and ameliorates behavioral deficits, defining a metabolically ...
