Saturated free fatty acids induce cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis.
UNLABELLED Recent studies have identified a cholestatic variant of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with portal inflammation and ductular reaction. Based on reports of biliary damage, as well as increased circulating free fatty acids (FFAs) in NAFLD, we hypothesized the involvement of cholangiocyte lipoapoptosis as a mechanism of cellular injury. Here, we demonstrate that the saturated ...
متن کاملFatty Acids: Straight-chain Saturated
Straightor normal-chain, saturated components (even-numbered) make up 10-40% of the total fatty acids in most natural lipids. The most abundant saturated fatty acids in animal and plant tissues are straight-chain compounds with 14, 16 and 18 carbon atoms, but all the possible oddand even-numbered homologues with 2 to 36 carbon atoms have been found in nature in esterified form. They are named s...
متن کاملSynthesis of isotopically labeled saturated fatty acids.
An approach to the synthesis of isotopically labeled saturated fatty acids is outlined which is based on the copper-catalyzed coupling of an omega-bromo acid with an isotopically labeled Grignard reagent. The method provides high yields of pure products and offers considerable flexibility in the type of isotopically enriched compound that can be prepared.-DasGupta, S. K., D. M. Rice, and R. G. ...
متن کاملSaturated fatty acids enhance osteoclast survival.
Hyperlipidemia and marrow fat are associated with lowering bone density in vivo, suggesting that lipid contributes to bone loss. Using bone marrow-derived macrophages, we investigated the effect of saturated fatty acids (SFA) on osteoclastogenesis. The level of free fatty acids and adiposity in bone marrow was significantly elevated in obese mice. SFA increased osteoclast (OC) survival by preve...
متن کاملHigh Free Fatty Acids
Biodiesel is an alternative fuel for diesel engines consisting of the alkyl monoesters of fatty acids from vegetable oils or animal fats. Most of the biodiesel that is currently made uses soybean oil, methanol, and an alkaline catalyst. The high value of soybean oil as a food product makes production of a cost–effective fuel very challenging. However, there are large amounts of low–cost oils an...
