Effects of inulin-type fructans on lipid metabolism in man and in animal models.
Studies in rodents show that inulin and oligofructose can reduce the plasma levels of cholesterol and triacylglycerols (TG). In addition, they can oppose TG accumulation in liver and have favourable effects on hepatic steatosis. The hypotriglyceridaemic effect is due to a reduction in hepatic re-esterification of fatty acids, but mainly in the expression and activity of liver lipogenesis, resul...
متن کامل[The effect of prebiotics on lipid metabolism].
Prebiotics were defined in 1995 as non-digestible food ingredients beneficially affecting the host by stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or more bacteria in the colon, thus improving health. The proliferation of certain bacteria by fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrates has been shown to be able to inhibit the colonization of the intestine by pathogens, thus giving a protective...
متن کاملEffects of ethanol on lipid metabolism.
Alcohol promotes accumulation of fat in the liver mainly by substitution of ethanol for fatty acids as the major hepatic fuel. The degree of lipid accumulation depends on the supply of dietary fat. Progressive alteration of the mitochondria, which occurs during chronic alcohol consumption, decreases fatty acid oxidation by interfering with citric acid cycle activity. This block is partially com...
متن کاملImpact of probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics on lipid metabolism in humans
Public health strategies for reducing the risk of coronary heart disease have focused on lowering plasma lipids, particularly cholesterol levels, with recent studies also highlighting triacylglycerol (TAG) as an important modifiable risk factor. One approach is to supplement the diet with probiotics, prebiotics or synbiotics. Probiotics are live microorganisms which when administered in adequat...
متن کاملEffects of endotoxin on lipid metabolism.
Endotoxin, via cytokines, induces marked changes in lipid metabolism which are now considered part of the acute phase response. The endotoxin induced hyperlipidemia may represent a nonspecific immune response that can decrease the toxicity of a variety of harmful biological and chemical agents and serve to redistribute nutrients to cells important in host defense. The endotoxin induced changes ...
