PNPLA3 GG Genotype and Carotid Atherosclerosis in Patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
BACKGROUND AND AIM To evaluate if the presence of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with NAFLD, could be related to gene variants influencing hepatic fat accumulation and the severity of liver damage. METHODS We recorded anthropometric, metabolic and histological data(Kleiner score) of 162 consecutive, biopsy-proven Sicilian NAFLD patients. Intima-media thickness(IMT), IMT thickening(IMT≥1 ...
متن کاملThe Source of Lipid Accumulation in L Cells
Strain L cells accumulate lipid, concurrent with cessation of protein synthesis, in the stationary phase of growth from the extracellular medium and as a result of de novo synthesis. Cells which have been more severely damaged with an amino acid analogue also accumulate lipid from the extracellular medium, but synthesize very little lipid from labeled acetate. The possible roles which lipid acc...
متن کاملPropranolol induced lipid accumulation and mitochondrial granularity in myocardial cells.
The ultrastructure of the left ventricular wall was studied in mice given intraperitoneal injections of propranolol (5 mg or 20 mg.kg-1 b.w. twice a day for 48 h with an additional dose 3 h before death), and in saline injected controls. Injections of propranolol increase the number of lipid droplets in areas of the myocardium. Fractional volume of lipid droplets in myocardial cells determined ...
متن کاملHaptoglobin genotype is a determinant of iron, lipid peroxidation, and macrophage accumulation in the atherosclerotic plaque.
OBJECTIVE Intraplaque hemorrhage increases the risk of plaque rupture and thrombosis. The release of hemoglobin (Hb) from extravasated erythrocytes at the site of hemorrhage leads to iron deposition, which may increase oxidation and inflammation in the atherosclerotic plaque. The haptoglobin (Hp) protein is critical for protection against Hb-induced injury. Two common alleles exist at the Hp lo...
متن کاملSpecific polymorphisms in hepatitis C virus genotype 3 core protein associated with intracellular lipid accumulation.
BACKGROUND Steatosis is a common histological finding and a poor prognostic indicator in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. In HCV genotype 3-infected patients, the etiology of steatosis appears to be closely correlated with unknown viral factors that increase intracellular lipid levels. We hypothesize that specific sequence polymorphisms in HCV genotype 3 core protein may be asso...
