Watching Lipid Metabolism In Live Zebrafish To Learn About Fat

In mammals, most lipids (such as fatty acids and cholesterol) are absorbed into the body via the small intestine. The complexity of the cells and fluids that inhabit this organ make it very difficult...

Study reveals technique that allows scientists to watch lipid metabolism in live zebrafish

In mammals, most lipids are absorbed into the body via the small intestine. The complexity of the cells and fluids that inhabit this organ make it very difficult to study in a laboratory setting. New...

Metabolism: Glucagon control of glucose, energy and lipid metabolism

Lipid metabolism regulates the activity of adult neural stem cells

(Medical Xpress)—Neural stem cells in the adult brain boost their levels of lipid metabolism to grow and generate new neurons. This new finding may open novel therapeutic avenues to treat age- or di...

Macrophages: Lipid metabolism linked to anti-inflammatory functions

Fasting time prior to blood lipid tests appears to have limited association with lipid levels

Fasting prior to blood lipid tests appears to have limited association with lipid subclass levels, suggesting that fasting for routine lipid level determinations may be unnecessary, according to a rep...

Metabolic control of adult neural stem cell activity by Fasn-dependent lipogenesis

Mechanisms controlling the proliferative activity of neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) have a pivotal role to ensure life-long neurogenesis in the mammalian brain. How metabolic programs are co...

Danthron activates AMP-activated protein kinase and regulates lipid and glucose metabolism in vitro

Regulation of Lipid Metabolism by Palmitoleate and Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA) in Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet.

We investigated whether oral administration of palmitoleate ameliorates disorders of lipid metabolism to clarify the effects of one of the components of fish oil. Lipid levels in the liver and plasma...

The Impact of Dietary Iodine Intake on Lipid Metabolism in Mice.

The present study has been designed to investigate the impact of dietary iodine intake on lipid metabolism in mice, including iodine deficiency and iodine excess. Different amounts of iodine mixed in...

Maternal consumption of high-prebiotic fibre or -protein diets during pregnancy and lactation differentially influences satiety hormones and expression of genes involved in glucose and lipid metabolism in offspring in rats.

Risk of developing the metabolic syndrome may be influenced by nutritional environment early in life. We examined the effects of high-fibre (HF) and high-protein (HP) diets consumed during pregnancy a...

Carbenoxolone Alters the Morphology of Adipose Tissues and Downregulates Genes Involved in Adipogenesis, Glucose Transport and Lipid Metabolism in High-Fat Diet-fed Mice.

Glucocorticoid (GC) excess promotes adipose tissue accumulation, and 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) plays an important role in the local amplification of GC. Therefore, in this s...

Steroid Regulation of Drug-Metabolizing Cytochromes P450.

Cytochrome P450 (P450) monooxygenases are capable of catalyzing metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous compounds, such as bile acids, fatty acids, retinoids, steroids, drugs and other xenobiot...
