Wang Q., Jin G., Wang N., Guo X., Jin Y., Ma M. (2017): Lipolysis and oxidation of lipids during egg storage at different temperatures. Czech J. Food Sci., 35: 229–235. The aim of this study was to investigate lipolysis and lipid oxidation of stored eggs at different temperatures (4 and 22°C) by evaluating the changes in physicochemical index, lipid profiles, enzymatic activity, and oxidative i...

Lipid storage droplet protein 5 (LSDP5) is a lipid droplet-associated protein of the PAT (perilipin, adipophilin, and TIP47) family that is expressed in the liver in a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα)-dependent manner; however, its exact function has not been elucidated. We noticed that LSDP5 was localized to the surface of lipid droplets in hepatocytes. Overexpression o...

UNLABELLED The specific mechanisms of nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) pathogenesis remain unknown. In the present study we investigated the differences between NAFL and NASH in terms of liver lipid metabolites and serum lipoprotein. In all, 104 Japanese subjects (50 men and 54 postmenopausal women) with histologically verified NAFL disease (NAFLD) (51 wit...

Currently, the main quality problem of beer is the change of its chemical composition during storage, which alters the sensory properties. A variety of flavours may arise, depending on the beer type and the storage conditions. In contrast to some wines, beer aging is usually considered negative for flavour quality. The main focus of research on beer aging has been the study of the cardboard-fla...

The effect of acetic acid on hepatic lipid metabolism in ruminants differs significantly from that in monogastric animals. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the regulation mechanism of acetic acid on the hepatic lipid metabolism in dairy cows. The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway plays a key role in regulating hepatic lipid metabolism. In vitro, bovine hep...

The freshness of buckwheat flour and its unique flavor is important for the quality of buckwheat products. Several reports have shown that lipid degradation and oxidation in buckwheat flour are the main causes of measurable quality deterioration during storage. On the other hand, some flavor compounds are produced by lipid degradation and oxidation pathway. Therefore, understanding lipid degrad...

Oxidation processes in milk and yogurt during the shelf life can result in an alteration of protein and lipid constituents. Therefore, the antioxidant properties of yogurt in standard conditions of preservation were evaluated. Total phenols, free radical scavenger activity, degree of lipid peroxidation, and protein oxidation were determined in plain and skim yogurts with or without fruit puree....

During fasting, human skeletal muscle depends on lipid oxidation for its energy substrate metabolism. This is associated with the development of insulin resistance and a subsequent reduction of insulin-stimulated glucose uptake. The underlying mechanisms controlling insulin action on skeletal muscle under these conditions are unresolved. In a randomized design, we investigated eight healthy sub...

BACKGROUND Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an important source of phenolic compounds, mainly lignans. Antioxidant capacities of flaxseed extracts that contain the compounds have been reported earlier. However, there is a lack of accessible information about their activity against lipid oxidation in meat products. Therefore, the effect of ethanolic flaxseed extracts (EFEs) on lipid stabilit...

Intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) storage is considered a local marker of whole body insulin resistance; because increments of body weight are supposed to impair insulin sensitivity, this study was designed to assess IMCL content, lipid oxidation, and insulin action in individuals with a moderate increment of body fat mass and no family history of diabetes. We studied 14 young, nonobese women with ...
