Citrus Flavanones Affect Hepatic Fatty Acid Oxidation in Rats by Acting as Prooxidant Agents
Citrus flavonoids have a wide range of biological activities and positive health effects on mammalian cells because of their antioxidant properties. However, they also act as prooxidants and thus may interfere with metabolic pathways. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the effects of three citrus flavanones, hesperidin, hesperetin, and naringenin, on several parameters linked to fatty aci...
متن کاملProtection from Metabolic Dysregulation, Obesity, and Atherosclerosis by Citrus Flavonoids: Activation of Hepatic PGC1α-Mediated Fatty Acid Oxidation
Studies in a multitude of models including cell culture, animal and clinical studies demonstrate that citrus-derived flavonoids have therapeutic potential to attenuate dyslipidemia, correct hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia, and reduce atherosclerosis. Emerging evidence suggests the metabolic regulators, PPARα and PGC1α, are targets of the citrus flavonoids, and their activation may be at leas...
متن کاملHepatic Fatty Acid Oxidation and Ketogenesis in Young Pigs
A primary limitation to efficient pork production is morbidity and mortality during the perinatal period. Because pigs are born with low energy reserves, their survival hinges on timely consumption of milk. In contrast to carbohydrate-based fetal metabolism, the transition to a milk-based diet necessitates rapid biochemical adaptations to accommodate the oxidation of fatty acids which comprise ...
متن کاملImpaired hepatic fatty acid oxidation in rats with short-term cholestasis: characterization and mechanism.
Rats with long-term cholestasis have reduced ketosis during starvation. Because it is unclear whether this is also the case in short-term cholestasis, we investigated hepatic fatty acid metabolism in rats with bile duct ligation for 5 days (BDL5, n = 11) or 10 days (BDL10, n = 11) and compared the findings with those made with pair-fed control rats (CON5 and CON10, n = 11). The plasma beta-hydr...
متن کاملHepatic oleate regulates adipose tissue lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation.
Hepatic steatosis is associated with detrimental metabolic phenotypes including enhanced risk for diabetes. Stearoyl-CoA desaturases (SCDs) catalyze the synthesis of MUFAs. In mice, genetic ablation of SCDs reduces hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) and protects against diet-induced hepatic steatosis and adiposity. To understand the mechanism by which hepatic MUFA production influences adipose t...
