Caspase-1 deficiency in mice reduces intestinal triglyceride absorption and hepatic triglyceride secretion.
Caspase-1 is known to activate the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. Additionally, it can cleave other substrates, including proteins involved in metabolism. Recently, we showed that caspase-1 deficiency in mice strongly reduces high-fat diet-induced weight gain, at least partly caused by an increased energy production. Increased feces secretion by caspase-1-deficient mice suggests tha...
متن کاملInactivation of ANGPTL3 reduces hepatic VLDL-triglyceride secretion.
Humans and mice lacking angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) have pan-hypolipidemia. ANGPTL3 inhibits two intravascular lipases, LPL and endothelial lipase, and the low plasma TG and HDL-cholesterol levels in ANGPTL3 deficiency reflect increased activity of these enzymes. The mechanism responsible for the low LDL-cholesterol levels associated with ANGPTL3 deficiency is not known. Here we used ...
متن کاملIntestinal Triglyceride Absorption in the Rat
This report provides information on the morphology of fat absorption in rat intestinal epithelial cells. Three types of experiments were performed: (a) intubation of corn oil into fasted rats, (b) injection of physiological fatty-chyme prepared from fat-fed donor rats into ligated segments of jejunum of fasted animals, and (c) administration of electron-opaque particles in corn oil and markers ...
متن کاملGLP-1 reduces intestinal lymph flow, triglyceride absorption, and apolipoprotein production in rats.
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a gastrointestinal hormone secreted in response to meal ingestion by enteroendocrine L cells located predominantly in the lower small intestine and large intestine. GLP-1 inhibits the secretion and motility of the upper gut and has been suggested to play a role in the "ileal brake." In this study, we investigated the effect of recombinant GLP-1-(7-36) amide (r...
متن کاملIntestinal DGAT1 deficiency reduces postprandial triglyceride and retinyl ester excursions by inhibiting chylomicron secretion and delaying gastric emptying
Acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) 1 catalyzes the final step of triglyceride (TG) synthesis. We show that acute administration of a DGAT1 inhibitor (DGAT1i) by oral gavage or genetic deletion of intestinal Dgat1 (intestine-Dgat1(-/-)) markedly reduced postprandial plasma TG and retinyl ester excursions by inhibiting chylomicron secretion in mice. Loss of DGAT1 activity did not affe...
